Paths of Initiation, Mendocino – August
Paths of Initiation
A Mentoring Retreat for Younger and Older Men
August 17-22, 2010
Mendocino Woodlands Camp, Mendocino, CA
Proceeds support Voices of Youthand Intercultural Projects
Through stories, poems and the compelling speech of the soul, through the suddenness of ideas and the surprise of ritual we will seek the spirit of practice and the life of the soul. The soul begins its initiatory path at birth, each birth initiating a particular life story. Awakening to one’s inner story and finding life-long initiatory paths comprises the “real work” and genuine opus of our lives. Although each soul is naturally gifted and secretly aimed, many aspects of modern culture lead us away from the very paths of knowledge that the soul would have us take. Inside, the dream of our life keeps trying to awaken us from the sleep of the daily world.
This retreat is about tuning in to the exact speech of the soul and to changes that the deep self would have us make in order to move further along the paths of healing and self-revelation.
Join us on this path of discovery as we approach the territory of initiation with a diverse and surprising faculty who will present ideas and elements of initiation from tribal traditions, spiritual practices, psychological perspectives, and a rich array of personal experiences.
