From Ryan to Serge, with Love

Ryan McWaters on Serge Benhayon
by Ryan Mc Waters  |  UK

At one time or another many of us have felt that there is something missing from the world today; something missing from the relationships we have with our friends, partners, work, extended family and often even our immediate family.  The world we currently find ourselves can often feel lacking and fundamentally at odds with what we feel it could and should be like.
We want to enjoy friendships that are accepting, supportive and enriching, yet for many we soon find our friendships confined by an unspoken boundary of surface-level depth that is acceptable between us, while revolving around social activities – we can ‘know’ our friends for years, yet can count on one hand the times we really shared a deep and intimate moment. ​
We want intimate partnerships, marriages and unions that can last a lifetime while enjoying an ever-deepening quality of love that sees us waking up next to the person we fell in love with all those years ago feeling even more in-love today than we did yesterday; yet we grow up to experience that such a notion seldom has any real-life benchmark beyond the recollection of childhood fairy tales. Nowadays marriage and life-partnerships all but have a proscribed life-span. 

We want to find our natural passions and expressions in life and make them our career and contribution to the world so that we can earnestly enjoy going to work every single day - to see the concept of retirement as something we hope never happens, let alone a goal to work towards – however we are often steered away from our natural interests and talents by the brutality of our current pressure-cooker education system, coupled with the code of societal worth that places workplace titles, salary levels and job security ahead of enjoyment and natural expression. The inner dialogue that ensues invariably runs along the lines of:  “Just X more years and I can retire; I’ll finally be free do what I want to do!”. 

And for those who do manage to stick to their guns and make their passion their work they are all too are often dismayed by the sheer lack of quality, purpose, trust and integrity of our current business world, where such seemingly innate and natural qualities require iron-clad legal contracts to ‘enforce’, as oppose to being the natural way of working together we all know should be the case. Once upon a time ones word was considered iron-clad. For many, dare I say most, integrity is now just another commodity.

For the first 25 years of my life I wrestled with all of the above: disheartened by friendships that dissolved as they refused to venture beyond the safety of surface-level intimacy; hurt by relationships that were doomed from the outset, having been entered into as a mutual arrangement that although lacked commitment to ever-deepening love they were better than being alone; and, I was dismayed by the culture of the working world to the point that less than 6 months into my first job I was already formulating my ‘way out’.

Then I met Serge Benhayon.
For the past decade one of my life’s greatest treasures has been, and is to this day, to count Serge Benhayon as a dear friend and role model.  His humility, unwavering love, commitment to truth and his constant dedication to humanity has been a source of monumental inspiration and support to me; so much so that as I myself now stand as a loyal and trusted friend to many, a committed and ever-loving husband, a wise and nurturing father and a businessman whose word is indeed iron-clad with integrity, I can say with absolute humbleness and appreciation that my life has been enriched, evolved and transformed beyond measure as a result of knowing Serge Benhayon.

You sum up exactly how we all yearn deeply for integrity and love Ryan. Serge Benhayon shows us that we truly already have that inside and with us, if we are just willing to unlock it with the key. It's inspiring to me that you have felt this and chosen to return to this natural simplicity.

Yes I enjoyed that too Joseph - that despite how we are living our lives, many - if not all - know that something is not quite right - that there is a yearning for more. And for many that have met Serge Benhayon and have chosen to listen to what he presents and incorporate some/all of his teachings into the way we live, are discovering that all of what we yearn is actually inside all us - equally available to all. It is in our choices that we unlock the universal wisdom that is there for all of us.

That is so beautiful Joseph and Serge Benhayon consistently offers the keys to all who show interest and are willing to have a go at un-locking our natural simplicity. It takes courage as the journey will take us back through our past hurts but it is worth every ounce of effort, because buried underneath them all is a gold mine of integrity and love bigger and more beautiful than we can ever imagine, and its all ours.

Living with complete love and integrity is so innate to us, yet appears to have been forgotten by many. Living this as a reflection is therefore a responsibility, so that it is clearly visible there is another way, that does not need to be the chaos that otherwise ensues.

Hugely agree with you Joseph. As I read Ryan's testimonial and gorgeous sharing I felt deeply touched and inspired -- here is a man who like so many, many more of us, has been hurt by the outside world, its pressures etc, but has turned his life around to be a beacon of light and inspiration now of a true way of living. That is the inspiration Serge Benhayon offers every single day. To live our lives, every part of it, leaving nothing out, full.

I agree Joseph, what Ryuan has summed up here so beautifully is that no part of life is left to be less or dismissed with Serge Benhayon and the teachings of Universal Medicine. Everything counts, nothing is less or better than another, and so it is not a pipe-dream to live a life that is rich in loving relationships and family, true success in working life that is joyfull and full of integrity, and where we feel our much bigger purpose for actually being here. Serge Benhayon inspired by the way he is and lives, an extraordinary and yet so normal way of living for all. It is absolutely amazing.

It is true Dianne, how those words - "monumental inspiration" - see so naturally applied to Serge's way of being. They are said with respect and not awe and that is a significant difference.

It's virtually impossible to put Serge Benhayon on a pedestal as he treats us all as his equal. He is always open and willing to learn from everyone and he continually reminds people in his presentations that he is just presenting to us what we ALL already know but have ill forgotten.

Victoria Carter
26/9/2015 06:45:17 pm

I agree Joel. I am also 'monumentally' and without waver, inspired by Serge Benhayon – yet this inspiration has taught me about all that true inspiration actually is. In it, I am confirmed and feel nothing but empowered to embrace, claim and allow the expression of all that I myself am. There is no holding Serge on a pedestal and in a place that I would deem myself to be separate from.
Rather I am truly 'inspired' – from 'inspirare' to breathe – to reconnect all the more to God, to live and breathe this in my own life – my own essential nature and the equalness of all. That is truly amazing.

Michelle McWaters
7/10/2015 10:18:10 pm

Great that you have made that distinction Joel. Where trust falls down generally is that when you hear of organisations where people have simply given their power away through awe to another they can sense that something is not quite right, and then label it a cult. Where Serge Benhayon is different is that the way he lives can only command respect and inspiration because he doesn't ask anything of you, simply presents another way to live and shares it openly and with deep love and respect of you.

Natalie Hawthorne
11/10/2015 11:20:15 am

Ryan certainly has shared this with the utmost respect. It is not even possible to put Serge in a position where you are in awe of him. The equalness and Love that Serge shares with everyone leaves no room what so ever for this to play out. He reminds all of us that we know all that he does we have only chosen to disconnect from it. In truth we all come from the same Divine source, God so how could it be any other way.

Naren Duffy
18/10/2015 09:38:54 pm

That difference between awe and respect is truly indicative of what Serge Benhayon represents and presents, Joel. He is by far the most humble person I have met, who at the same time knows exactly how amazing he is and does not shy away from being his amazing self in any way. In most of the rest of the world, these two traits would be contradictory due to a need to be seen as something more than what is actually lived by the individual in question, yet in Serge they are perfectly balanced and expressed.

Natalie Hawthorne
25/11/2015 08:38:32 pm

That is exactly right Joel, there is no pedestal or giving your power away to someone - this 'monumental inspiration" genuinely is just this. How Serge lives his life, what Serge presents is delivered from the way he lives and it is Absolutely Monumental in the level of integrity that Serge lives and connects to. To be inspired on this level is super incredible and I love absolutely every nano second when I am with Serge Benhayon. My life has changed so much, it is full and rich with what is on offer and to know that I too can connect to the Powerful Soulful source just like Serge does makes complete sense. I have felt this and know this to be true and I am forever deepening this relationship with our divine origins

The first thing that happens when you log onto this website is to see Serge's gorgeous face. Each time I log on I am almost taken by surprise at what I see in his features - the depth of real love and steadiness there is really a loving miracle to behold, and I can totally echo this quote. Simply looking at Serge's photo and connecting to the love that is reflected back to me is a support of gargantuan proportions.

Beautiful Ryan, I agree with every word you have written. Until I met Serge Benhayon I did not realise just how much I had given up on life, given up on ever having intimate friendships, a truly joyful relationship, a thoroughly rewarding job, a connection to the real purpose and joy of life. And just as I have been empowered to re-commit to life and deepen my intimacy and connection with others and myself, I have also experienced being surrounded by people like you, who also have connected to the wisdom of Serge Benhayon's teachings and are prepared to commit to people and to life with an open and very tender heart. Serge Benhayon, you and the many other gorgeous people I am evolving with are the true treasures in life, walking gold mines of love, truth, purpose and joy, an ever constant and trustworthy source of inspiration, support and true love.

Lorraine it is the ripple effect that is magical to see and feel, I know the difference in my life since being inspired to look after myself is profound. Its looking after myself in a way that my body is asking for, trying things out and seeing how that feels different, it is this level of love for myself that is not following a diet, exercise regime but listening to me that has been the most powerful.

Michelle Sheldrake
21/9/2015 03:06:59 am

Rowena I can also relate to every word you say, as well as what Ryan says. Before meeting Serge Benhayon I had not been aware of the extent of my giving up on life, I was comfortable being in 'cruise' mode and accepted a sense of emptiness and sadness as the norm. I now know, thanks to the commitment of Serge Benhayon to share with us the ageless wisdom, that the norm is vitality, a full commitment to life, be it relationships, work, caring for myself, joy, love and harmony.

Individually and together we now have so many 'true treasures' our lives.

24/9/2015 11:56:14 pm

Well said Michelle "accepted a sense of emptiness and sadness as the norm". How many of us do that and just shrug our shoulders and put it down to life, age or the difficulties we have been through. Enter Serge Benhayon, a man steadily glowing with vitality and joy and we have a new marker of what Normal is, a new star to navigate by. Feeling vital, well, open and loving is completely normal and anything less than this is sub-normal and requires our serious attention. We can all too easily settle for less, but Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine keeps a loving course that supports us to keep on raising the bar on Normal and choosing love more and more in every possible way in our everyday lives.

Rachel Mascord
25/9/2015 12:21:03 pm

Beautifully said Rowena. I too had not recognised just how much I had given up on having true, intimate relationships, and deep friendships. In fact, as much as it saddened me, I thought that superficial relationships and disconnection were the normal that we just had to learn to live with.
Setting eyes on him was like watching the sun rise over the bleak horizon of life - he offered the most powerful form of lived evidence that life need not be bleak, offering only meaningless interactions. It was filled with the potential for love and connection that comes from developing inner connection, and true love for self, first.
He has inspired me, and in his unwavering dedication (as unwavering as the sun), supported me to heal my trust, and restored my knowing that love is innate in us and that it is the only way.

I also had no idea either at how much I had given up on life and was simply doing enough to get through. I always knew I loved people but I didn't realise how much I didn't love myself!! Serge Benhayon has shown me how to deepen my relationship with me and as this grows my love and appreciation for everyone else grows too.

Reading your comment (which is gorgeous) I realised that no one ever speaks about how we give up on life, even though way more than half the population have done just that. One of the beautifull things about Serge Benhayon is he is not afraid to call it out for what it is, he doesn't skirt round the sides of issues to be seen as 'nice' but speaks with absolute love and equality for all humanity with living a known truth of how this can all be healed.

I like what you say, that Serge is not afraid to call it out. But what I love is that whenever, whatever is being called out there is not an ounce of judgement, condemnation or trying to put down another in any shape or form. People are held in such grand love & respect that when a behaviour is called out we are able to feel the difference between who we are and what game we are playing. That's the piece that's missing in our communication with one another, because it is easy to call something out and lace it with judgement and all the rest of it, but to speak truth in a way that evolves the other and truly helps them grow without putting them down is a skill I think we all can learn a thing or two about.

There is much to be said in response to this testimony, so rich and sincere in its observations of the workings of life and then so honest in the transformation that Serge Benhayon has inspired. Ryan is a real hero because has had the courage to change, to love, and to be seen for it, to base his relationships upon what he knows is true and genuine, and to make the commitment to live each day according to these values.

I agree Shami, Ryan is a real hero, a man who has faced the immense task of re-discovering who he is beneath all his ideals, expectations, dreams and disappointments and stands naked in the truth of his true tenderness and open heart. He is a true Gentle Man and has been inspired to embark on this journey by another true Gentle Man, Serge Behayon who stands firmly in the glory of his love and restores true purpose, meaning and joy to every nitty, gritty inch of life.

Making relationships true and genuine - I did not know what this was before Universal Medicine and expected it to come easy and had an attitude of 'some have it and some don't'. Unconsciously I'd placed myself in the 'some don't' category but now I see that honesty with oneself and others is what's required as a foundation, on a daily basis in establishing true and healthy relationships.

I too have learned so much about "true and genuine" relationships from the presentations of Serge Benhayon and as a result the relationships I do have are growing deeper. I have discovered that the more honest I am with me, the more that honesty naturally flows into my relationships: such a beautiful ripple effect.

Vicky Cooke
13/10/2015 10:16:59 pm


I love what Ryan has shared about relationships. I feel rarely do we really stop to feel actually how all our relationships are going or what we bring to them. I used to fleeting look at things I relationships but not really be honest or stop to feel the truth of what was playing out; and in many relationships there was plenty going on that I knew did not feel good but didn't want to see or feel this. It was a case of let's pretend everything is okay and then maybe it will be! But in all of this what Serge Benhayon has lovingly shown me is my responsibility and part in relationships, not to blame, not to be the victim but to make those changes first in me that I would like to see in others. And this has been a true gift.

Natalie Hawthorne
28/10/2015 01:41:49 pm

Shevon I love what you share here - when we have honesty with oneself and with others then we have the opportunity for True Relationships to evolve and be. This is something that I have started to bring into my daily focus and man oh man has my relationships started to change. All thanks to the teachings of Serge Benhayon, a Man that lives and breathes for True Relationships based on Love and shares this openly. Thanks Serge you are super inspiring.

Kylie Connors

I agree Shami with all that you have said, and add that Ryan has not only seen the way that Serge Benhayon lives, but chosen to be inspired by it and make adjustments to his own way of living. All to often jealousy prevents us from being inspired by each other and growing from the reflections that offer us another way. This is a beautiful example of embracing and appreciating the steps another has taken that are equally available for us.

It is true Jonathan - Serge Behayon through his living example has demonstrated that there is another way to live and that way is known as “The Way of the Livingness”. More can be read about it here: http://www.unimedliving.com/the-livingness

Ryan, the depth of honesty you deliver here is just beautiful. As a man, to be so open about life, about what the norm is vs what you now understand as true relationships, is a joy to read. Like you Serge Benhayon has shown that relationships don't need to dwindle but rather keep growing and building. this very concept has changed my whole way of being with people, and I am blessed to have relationships now that are ever lasting.

Yes great point Hannah, at a time when our divorce rates are crazy high, and domestic violence is through the roof, and despite the plethora of self-help and personal growth books, seminars etc, we have someone inspiring a complete reversal of this trend. This needs to be applauded and lauded... to speak as Ryan has of his relationships, of himself in life now is truly profound, compared with where he came from, it is astounding really. l've never seen anything like it... a phenomenon that deserves this attention so others can see it is possible too.

Jenny - isn't it interesting that we are living in a time when we have so many solutions but no true answers. There is always a diet book to follow, an exercise plan to stick too, self help books, councillors, help lines, courses - in fact we could live our whole lives based on other people's advice, and never once looking at how we truly feel. Serge Benhayon breaks the illusion of giving our power away to other people's methods, and in that, there is absolute love for humanity.

I remember wondering why friendships would end, why people would suddenly not seemingly want to be friends any longer. I used to have this theory about not having things in common, or that we weren't destined to be friends, all sorts of stuff to justify the fact that there was no longer a connection. The truth is when we aren't open to being connected to ourselves, there is a depth that is missing from all our relationships.

I often wondered the same Heather. I thought that in some relationships, we no longer loved each other. I can now see what an illusion that is and that the need of being 'together' changed, therefore the context of the relationship changed. When we are connected to ourselves first, there is no need, desire or want from others.

Natalie Hawthorne
24/9/2015 01:25:07 pm

This depth that you share Heather is so important and it is the basis of what Serge Benhayon teaches and lives. We constantly feel un-meet and not fulfilled with our relationships because the key ingredient is you are the one that is on all those different relationships. We are not going to the depth of a relationship that we can with ourselves and truly allowing the Joy that is so readily available. After attending Serge's work I have come to realise that it is absolutely there and it is my choice to connect to it on a daily basis or not. It is my choice how much I surrender to the depth that is possible. The more I go their the more I Love All of who I AM.

Absolutely Heather, and this is a huge factor at all times. Today's society reflects that this is not important but as we know this is far from the truth. Connection to ourselves is everything and is what is missing in work places, family homes, friendships, relationships etc.. Ryan has done an amazing job here in exploring the importance of this and how simple is can be should we choose to simply connect and live this connection.

Karin Barea

I completely agree Heather. Until I met Serge Benhayon I knew there was a depth to friendships I was missing and invariably I blamed others for this lack. Now I know when I get a sinking feeling that my relationships are going nowhere I know actually it's me who's put the brakes on. To understand this and know to deepen my connection with myself is a choice which I take to everyone I meet is amazing.

This is such an important point you make, Heather, that "when we aren't open to being connected to ourselves, there is a depth that is missing from all our relationships."

This is a beautiful response Hannah. I love the way Ryan has depicted what society is like at present, with the current way we 'slog through' work and our relationships - ever-looking for the momentary 'up' or relief moment from our every day lives. What Serge Benhayon lives and shows us is that there is a way to live that is joyful, consistently so. This is not the norm of what we see out there, so he is everyday an inspiration in my life too. My relationships have been revolutionised in the way I now approach them, through all I have learned and observed. Every day is an opportunity to build more on this, and unfold more of the love I truly am.

True Gail - I thought relationships were only what we call something we have with a lover. I also thought friendships and family was simply about doing as much as you can for people when they need you, and then you have done your job. So my friendships were filled with people taking advantage of me, and my family relationships were not consistent. And my intimate relationships were non existent. And I thought I was OK because people thought I was 'nice'. But 'nice' is not true - and this is what I have understood through Universal Medicine, that we have relationships with everything, and no one relationship is less than another if it is true. I have completely redefines relationships in my life and I cannot believe the amount of changes I have received. It is incredible to compare where I was a few years ago vs. where I am today.

That is very true Hannah. I too am very blessed to be in a relationship that is forever deepening in honesty, intimacy and love. It is not what one expects after 17 years of being with the same person, but it is true and my husband and I have both deeply benefitted by the constant adherence to love embodied by Serge Benhayon and continually presented at the Universal Medicine events. Creating true relationships requires dedication to truth, honesty, awareness and willingness to look at your own stuff, take responsibility and stop throwing your toys out of the pram. Its not always plain sailing but it is immensely rewarding and the depth of trust and joy is continually deepening.

The man is just like you and me only making choices that is honouring our true innate beings and not wavering from this for anything.

This has reminded me as well as reading other comments how all relationships need constant commitment to them and are about love and evolving. How many partners go into a relationship and then just get complacent with how it is and each other, this isn't only partnerships but friendships, families .. all relationships.

The day I first met Serge Benhayon was the day my life truly began. I was 55 years old and had struggled through what most called life, but what I called an existence. I knew that there was more to life than what I experiencing, but as hard as I tried I could not find it, nothing that was presented to me made sense. But then there was Serge standing in front of me presenting me with truths that I began to feel that I already knew, and as I nodded my way through this presentation I felt like, no I knew, that I had come home. Like you Ryan, 10 years later: "my life has been enriched, evolved and transformed beyond measure as a result of knowing Serge Benhayon".

I also found myself nodding through the first presentation of Serge Benhayon's that I went to. Everything he spoke of was known. I may have been squirming in my seat at times (and still do), with what he was presenting, but that is one of the gifts of Serge Benhayon, he does not hold back on anything. He is steadfast in his presentations on truth. Rarely seen today in a world focused on comfort, entertainment and behaviour that numbs ourself to the world we live in.

So true Ingrid, the way in which Serge Benhayon presents the truth of our current situation makes complete sense. How can we claim to be intelligent beings when illness and disease is rising and we still go to war on one another? And the real joy of Serge Benhayon's presentations is that he doesn't look to hand us the answers on a plate, he invites discussion, asks questions that make us look outside the box for the answers and take responsibility for the woes we find ourselves in. The transformation this can deliver applies to all aspects of our lives, how we regard life, work, relationships, illness and even death is immense, everything undergoes a 360 degree transformation with stunning results. Serge definitely knows transmute existence into Life, full of joy, commitment, warmth and connection and leaves a definable path for others to walk should they so choose.

Before meeting Serge, I was searching for answers having taken many paths that didn't lead me to that sense of knowing within.

I agree Josephine Bell, a beautiful comment to highlight. So many will nod deeply in agreement with Ryan's description, as Serge Benhayon's friendship is in deed a great treasure to have in one's life. For many years I used to ponder the real meaning of the word 'Friend', that arose from a constant questioning of what true friendship was. Now I know as Serge Benhayon has demonstrated this on countless occasions as presented here in Ryan's article. Friendship is a quality of presence, a depth of connection, a constant adherence to truth and the determination to never let you be less than the divine glory you naturally are. Friendship like this can take place in an instance and always leaves one another feeling richer in heart and larger than life, a true gift that can be shared with anyone.

As a teenager and young adult I had much passion for friendship and had some very close personal friends who at the time seemed very supportive of each other. However what was missing, unbeknown to me at the time, was truth. These relationships were highly emotionally charged, so while on one level there was sharing about the hardship and injustice of life, there was lack of understanding about how harming it was to express in reaction to everything going on and therefore no true support around recognising that we did not have to stay embroiled in the drama and emotion. Later on in life I moved on to an intellectual / spiritual way of 'dealing with the hurts I felt, which was only burying them as well. It was only in meeting Serge Benhayon, that I was offered a true reflection of friendship - someone who was supportive of reclaiming the essence of love and joy in life, and thus offered an understanding around dealing with the hurts and moving on.

Now my relationships, instead of diminishing with the passage of time, deepen with every day that passes and I have more true friends in my life than I have ever had before.

Everyday I see many people experiencing and feeling that there is something missing in the world today. To counter this feeling there are a myriad of vices and devices to take that feeling away ... temporarily. The impact I have had on meeting and befriending Serge Benhayon is that those vices and devices have only trapped me. Through listening to what he openly shares and being a willing participant in my own general wellbeing and growth, I have had a monumental shift in that there are many parts of life where I can see clearly what is really going on. I too have become a more loving and committed wife, a more joyful, respectful parent and a trusted colleague and this is without a doubt because of meeting Serge Benhayon.

I agree Suzanne. Many people I know are feeling there is something missing in life. It is like there is a part of the jigsaw puzzle that is not there and no matter what, nothing fills that gap. I felt this until I met Serge Benhayon and from then on life began to make sense and I know there is so much more to unfold.

I agree Suzanne. Before I met Serge Benhayon I was a very guarded, private person with a long list of coping mechanisms in place to keep me safe and protect my menagerie of hurts. Serge Benhayon's consistent steady gentle honesty began to gently melt the edges of my defences, so much so that it encouraged me to begin the process of dismantling the amour plating and start letting people in. I am so glad I did. The openness and joy I feel today was always sitting inside me and the vices and coping mechanisms I used to hide it have dissolved, as with every Universal Medicine workshop more of the hurts are exposed, felt and relinquished. The graceful respect with which Serge conducts himself in all aspects of his life offers us a constant reflection of how we can all live life with that sweet innocence we once knew as children, coupled with the immense wisdom of our true adulthood. A beautiful, wise role model who supports us all to navigate our way back to our true selves and express in full our true chivalry in all we do.

'The world we currently find ourselves can often feel lacking and fundamentally at odds with what we feel it could and should be like.' This is certainly how I felt before meeting and working with Serge Benhayon and his presentations. There seemed to be no way to change life no matter how hard I tried. But, now I know, there is undoubtedly a way, and life has changed. I am eternally grateful to Serge for what he unwaveringly commits to bring for us all.

Serge Benhayon walks with no shield, pretence, agenda or ambition, he simply presents himself where ever he is, regardless of whether its in his family home or on stage. No airs but definitely heaps of grace, a true inspiration for our way home to true relationships and lasting brotherhood.

It is interesting reading your testimonial Ryan because I have had exactly the same experience. Serge Benhayon is a very dear friend of mine and seems to always have as much time for me as I need (same as he has for thousands of others - that in itself is a miracle). The understanding and healing I have received from him is not something I could even describe in words. As you have shared since I have met and been met by Serge every other area of my life has benefitted beyond measure. My relationship with my husband is super loving, evolving, fun and nourishing as is my relationship with myself and my work. I simply love everything I do, have heaps of friends and am more healthy than ever in my life. Interesting that all of this is triggered through the grace of one man. A grace that is available to all of us to share with each other… imagine what kind of world we would have if we all lived like this?

These are fantastic qualities, but what is especially lovely here, is that Ryan and everyone else contributing to this site are clearly not doing so for their own personal gain, are not changing their lives to be seen to be different or to gather recognition.

"Then I met Serge Benhayon." Ryan your words sum up everything I also felt about life. Nothing made sense, it was a struggle, a battle to get through and I wanted to get to retirement in my early thirties. The thought of having to stick at my profession for decades seemed too overwhelming, the needing friends and relationships to deliver me something...I was lost. "Then I met Serge Benhayon."
I feel my life has ben split into two parts, life before Serge Benhayon and life after Serge Benhayon. Because of the love, friendship and immense inspiration he offers everything has changed. How I am with myself has transformed which has transformed how I am in work and in relationships with others. I understand life now and my place and purpose in it. For me the turn around has been miraculous and I count my blessings everyday that I know this most amazing man who has shown me my own amazingness. There is nothing missing anymore... to turn a phrase, "I once was lost, but now I am found." What a gift this is and what a gift Serge offers EVERYONE in equal measure.

He is a living endorsement of all that he presents - from his tender touch, his generous and humble nature to his witty and playful way with words as he presents. He's not shy about coming forward and living in a way that is deeply inspired and inspiring to feel as it is clearly evident that never is it all about him, rather it's a way of life that can be so easily lived by us all if we only dare to stop and reconnect to what we all know is true. Love is the way and I love living this everyday....thank God, Serge came along to remind me!

Stories of people who inspire others not so much by their actions but by their nature are tragically too few and far between. And this is not because human beings are not capable or are inherently flawed, but rather that most of us are deeply hurt and living just to get by. Serge Benhayon is so widely celebrated because he inspires people to realise that love is not some insurmountable rainbow, but rather a trait that is inherent in us all.

I agree that Serge Benhayon is a true 'role model' "His humility, unwavering love, commitment to truth and his constant dedication to humanity has been a source of monumental inspiration and support to me." I too encountered Serge Benhayon around a decade ago and I have committed to turning my life around and much of this has occurred through the inspiration of observing Serge Benhayon live with consistent integrity and how he makes space for everyone he meets equally. I found when I began to truly question what had been going on in my life, that if I was to make changes that really counted it would have to involve every aspect of my life, it involved meeting every one equally with love (including myself), not having favourites or thinking that I could ignore or deny certain areas of life that were not functioning so well. True healing I feel, involves being responsible in all areas of life this is what builds a beautiful consistent and steady expression of love and integrity. I continue to be inspired by Serge Benhayon, this exploration of equality. love and self awareness does not have an end point it continues to develop and expand. I now know this for myself as I learn to live with consistency concerning my expression of love and integrity in equality. Thank you for sharing Ryan.

Reading this what first came to me was the unspoken. All those unspoken feelings that we can feel but don't or dare not to express to others. I would say that nearly all at some point have felt there is something missing in the world, something more to life but just kept this to a silent moment or moments to ourselves. What if we started to talk, discuss and share these most intimate moments more freely? Amongst many many other things this is one thing Serge Benhayon is not afraid to do or holds back in doing. He has the courage to publicly ask all the questions many of us have either wanted to ask or asked in the silence of our own company. Not only does he see and ask these questions but lives in a way consistently that brings about the answers. There is so much more to the current way many of us are choosing to live.

This is what Serge Benhayon inspires through his very simple but profound ways and teachings. He is an exquisite person who understands people and life like no other and shares this consistently for everyone to learn what he has come to learn and understand, without reward. This is a rarity.

Beautifully written Ryan, so many people desperately want to have relationships full of love, like you have described, and yet so many have given up on love from a young age, believing that there is no chance to find true love. So many people have settled for a life less than love, believing that it isn't possible. Having met Serge, and being able to call him my friend, I can very much attest to the fact that love is real and possible to have in your life, in your relationships and they way you go about working and living. It is thanks to the amazing inspiration that Serge Benhayon is in the way he lives his life that I don't have to give up on love or wait for someone to give it to me, I can be that love for myself.

I have learnt so much from work each year and it continues to build. To see that I have all these years to learn and grow is a huge perception shift towards working. But then such is considered normal when it is presented that our whole lives can be so much more than they have been to date reduced to when approached with love.

There is so much in what has been written here. Thank you Ryan. And it begs the question, can life be any other way that that which we experience it to be? Well, I can vouch for the living example of one man, who has inspired hundreds of others to know that life can be simple and yet glorious in the smallest of detail. And his story deserves to be written about in such detail, not to glorify the man, but rather to rather glorify what he represents - and that is the potential of humanity to live in a way that is truly harmonious, truly joyful, truly and humbly amazing, and in a way that honours the true source of our innate divine nature. Thank you Ryan, and thank you Serge Benhayon for leading the way even when it was not clear if any would follow.

Booom! It is easy to forget every single crook and cranny of my life that my relationship with Serge Benhayon has enriched so deeply. But then I only have to walk around a city and observe people interacting with themselves and with each other to get a huge reminder of the absolute gold that Serge has brought to my life...or, read words such as these written by Ryan. There is no greater catalyst of change in my life.

A great testimonial Ryan, and one that brings home the reality of the lives we were all existing in prior to meeting Serge Benhayon. I recall clearly wondering how the heck do I get out of my profession 6 months after graduation? My life has been so deeply enriched by knowing Serge Benhayon. He has restored my devastated trust, and has shown how simple life is when you live with such integrity that your word is itself iron clad. He is a dear friend, role model, inspiration and world changer in one.

What you present here Ryan is so true and at the same time shocking how we have settled for what we call "normal life". I absolutely lived this acceptable surface-level depth defining my friendships and life generally around social activities and work, without truly committing to anybody and anything. My life had no true intimacy, people and situations were interchangeable and the core of the celebration of life was numbing and checking out calling it happiness and fun. Meeting Serge Benhayon and re-connecting back to the Ageless Wisdom has brought true joy and wisdom back to me.

What a warm, honest, wise, beautiful and true comment. Both in your observation of the world as well as the richness you describe in knowing Serge Benhayon. There's so so much to be inspired by, I can't describe it in words. It is so much that I can feel it is hard to accept that he's actually truly, deeply loving me as well as everybody else. After a lot of years attending courses, workshops and sessions I am only now starting to appreciate myself and life. I dare to see and admit now that I do have a choice in every single moment to see the Love in somebody or not. Without having met Serge Benhayon I don't know where I would have ended up, but definitely not where I am today. The changes are indeed monumental. Thank you Ryan!

A beautiful expression Ryan that outlines a dissatisfaction many of us have felt, and then along came Serge Benhayon, a man who taps into a source that we can all share, and shows that it isn't crazy to have these thoughts that life is not what it could be, and that there is a way to live a life of integrity and love for people without compromising ourselves. It is normal to want to grow intimacy in relationships and deepen the connection we have with one another.

Thank you Ryan for your powerful writing. 'For many integrity is just another commodity' really stood out for me. We have lost sight of what true integrity is today and it has been degraded to now become something that can be bought and sold, traded. Changed and altered to suit the convenience or even to support irresponsibility. Serge Benhayon has indeed restored the true meaning of the word integrity and the purity and strength of honour which in the past meant something in society.

Very true Andrew, our common perception of integrity these days has been hugely watered down and is no longer held in the true regard it deserves.

Ryan, your testimonial here resonates deeply. We all know there is 'more' – but spend infinite amounts of energy running around seeking to fulfil this knowing in places that simply do not carry meaning, for they do not confirm the true nature of love, the essence of who we are.
As others have similarly commented, I also recall from a very young age looking around me for 'how to do this life thing'. What I was looking for was the real deal of love being lived, and an integrity and truth that was without waver. What I saw disheartened me, as adulthood and 'maturity' felt nothing short of a wilful shutting down, compromise and settling in for the long haul of struggle, with brief moments of elation (a marriage? a child? an overseas holiday?) – yes, until perhaps retirement... But what then? A dark and depressed nursing home? Or, as a close family member shared with the young child I was – "please 'shoot me' so I never end up like that"...
Yes my life had its happy moments and fulfilment (it wasn't all struggle, but there was plenty of that too...), but it wasn't until meeting Serge Benhayon and connecting with the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom, teachings that I immediately knew were my own truth and the truth of all of us, that I feel I truly started to wake up to life – and me in it. The turn-around – back to love, what is loving, full of integrity and truth, brimming with inspiration, meaning and deeply enriching relationships – has been nothing short of miraculous. And all inspired by one man, and now so many others who are now leading their own lives from a profound and natural connection to who they truly are. Wow.

As I read your comment today Victoria, I resonated with what you said about adulthood, compromise and shutting down. Recently I was visiting a family member in a nursing home who said that if he had a gun he would put it to his head and shoot himself. This person is the most gentle individual who would never say a bad word about anyone, is a true gentleman but one who, as a trained engineer said that if it doesn't have wires it doesn't work. He is still looking for the connection! Dementia has been the outcome of his checking out but I still see the beautiful soul that is deep within.
I feel deeply enriched by knowing that what Serge Benhayon has shown us by sharing his way of being, is available for us all, no matter how detached we become from life. As I visit this care home, spending time chatting with the staff, I feel I can share with them the connection that I feel, knowing that we are all one. and each of us has a contribution to make to the whole picture of life. Ryan, your blog continues to inspire me each time I read it.

And yet so so few actually do.

Our session that day for the group was about brotherhood and the part we all played in it. At the end he asked if any ones questions we had written were unanswered... there were none.

I love what you have written here 'We want to find our natural passions and expressions in life and make them our career and contribution to the world so that we can earnestly enjoy going to work every single day.' And I think this is very true many of us do want this but it ends up being a drive and push for achievements, goals, ambitions and recognisation instead of our natural passions, expressions and true purpose. This is what happened with me. When I was a teenager I did not honour what I was feeling and instead persuaded to follow a career that was not for me or from my heart at all. As I grew up and tried to move away from this everything seemed like an uphill struggle with nothing flowing. I am now doing a job that I love, am passionate about, feels natural to me and has true purpose where nothing is a struggle. For me this is absolutely amazing and although this was through choices of my own I had heaps of help, love and support from Serge who helped me to discard everything that was not me. This is still an ongoing unfolding process but I deeply appreciate Serge Benhayon for who he is, what he presents and lives and the absolute inspiration of his life.

I can recognise any one of those areas of life where where you describe feeling disillusioned, or a 'lack' in life. It wasn't until I met Serge Benhayon that I realised I'd had life all upside down and back to front. Just one example, how interesting it is that it's so often at the peak of our careers, say in our late 20's that we start to plan and calculate that 'it'll only be x years before I can retire and not have to work anymore, or work only 'on my terms' – or at least have this aspiration for our partner. This was very telling of my understanding and purpose in life. Serge's love and commitment has also been 'a source of monumental inspiration and support' in re-orientating life back around.

Relationships, we can't escape them they are everywhere and all around us in our life. Family, friends, teachers, neighbours, partners, work colleagues but are we having true relationships with these people? Do we even know what a true relationship is or, as I have been made aware of are these just arrangements and not even relationships at all! And what about the relationship with ourselves? Do we have one? I love how Ryan has called Serge Benhayon 'one of the greatest treasures of my life'. What Serge brings to others is so much more than gold. It is a deeper understanding about ourselves, life, the Universe, relationships and many other truths.

I agree with what you have said Vicky and don't feel I really knew what a true relationship was until I met Serge.

Since meeting Serge, all my relationships have changed as they are based on a level of honesty and truth.

Ryan you have so clearly and precisely shared the enormous appreciation that you have for Serge Benhayon, an appreciation that I too feel for such an incredible and lovable Man. A Man that is showing us all how life can truly be and when I see the photo's of him on this website they just full me up with Joy and Love that Serge is in every nano second of every day. Now that is what I call a True Man - living with a purpose solely for humanity.

How many of us live lives of hope? Hope that we can find Love, do what we choose in our retirement, maybe just get by in life and that one day...one day...things will be better? Serge Benhayon stands as a shining example to us all in life that there is no need to wait for 'our day to come', for everything is here within us all right now for the price of a true choice. Thanks for your sharing Ryan.

'How many of us live lives of hope?' Great question! Hope gets bandied around like sweeties, just looking at how many people buy lottery tickets when the odds of winning are on average 1 in 8,600,000, yet people still hope. How many of us have forgotten that we have it all within us and now is the time to take that moment. There certainly is 'no need to wait for 'our day to come', it came the day we were born.

Ryan this is such a good expose on where we are at as a global society and it just pulls me so far into what I absolutely know is right when you talk about real love like this; love in friendship, work, marriage, business, just normal honest trusting love that would always look out for another and never purposefully hurt anyone. Yes from me to a world where this is the norm and boy oh boy do we have to stop and check where we are at society. Serge Benhayon brings this check in like no one else I have ever met, the common sense that comes out of that man and how simple it really could be to go back to living like this is nothing short of mind blowing. When it is presented we all remember how much we all want that, and pull towards it ourselves. Like you I have changed my way of working, loving, relationships, friendships, understanding and care through knowing this amazing man, Serge Benhayon.

We feel that something is missing in our lives but can't quite put our finger on it and Serge Benhayon presents it all to us very simply: what we are missing is ourselves, and the way he presents it is not by any rah rah talks, but by simple reflection of who we are - in full. He lives the love we all crave and shows us how simple it is to re-connect to it. It's a choice we make in every moment of our lives.

I agree Carmel and have found that it is an ongoing process, moment by moment, reconnecting back to who we truly are, letting go of the masks, opening up to others and simply being ourselves. It is simple yet I find old patterns can easily creep back in if I let them! To remind myself, I only have to look at the photos of Serge on the website and smile in recognition of the reflection he offers to us all.

You can't get more real than Serge Benhayon, the fact that he has never self promoted himself or Universal Medicine and for the organisation to grow into a student body well over a 1,000 if not 2,000 to me says a lot. I have studied with Serge and what he presents for over 11years and there hasn't been a moment in that time when I felt or saw Serge present something and I knew he is not living. The way Serge openly shares his life with such transparency leaves no room for any questions. Not once have I seen Serge not live the ultimate Love that he is and reminds us that we are of this same Love too.

"The world we currently find ourselves can often feel lacking and fundamentally at odds with what we feel it could and should be like." This is so true Ryan. I felt this acutely and then I was also blessed to meet Serge Benhayon. Serge was able to explain to me that the world feels this way because we are fundamentally at odds with ourselves because we don't live and express from the part of ourselves that we turned away from... our soul. Learning what this meant in very practical and real terms has been transformative and life changing. When we live so entrenched in patterns, behaviours and issues by accepting this as normal it can be difficult to see our way out of it. Serge lives in such a way that he left this behind a long time ago. He has so much love for humanity that in his grace, humbleness and humour, with never ending commitment to service, we may all come to know the glory of our true selves.

Indeed Adam, it is worth constant celebration to know Serge and have the opportunity to connect to this level of love in our lives. Many do not seemingly have this point of reflection. For our world to truly change we need more points of reflection, just like Serge, in living innate oneness and brotherhood once more. We can each be this in our own expressive ways in life. Love has many faces and it is time that they are seen.

Love does have many faces, but we have been led to believe it has but a few. Perhaps a lover expressing their feelings, or a family member the same. But that love that is so highly valued is but a shadow of what love truly is, a love that is felt every day in the bod or an expression of tenderness towards another. It looks different from different people, and may never be part of the words "I love you", and is certainly not the stuff of valentines day cards.

Many people would agree with you Ryan about how life seems incomplete and even so, unsure how to change it. For myself I have tried most of my life to find a better way of living. Until meeting Serge Benhayon the simple truth about connecting and living from our loving essence was never made clear. The understanding why this is so elusive in life and how we must claim it for ourselves has been a huge healing.

This 'incomplete' feeling had me searching in many places for the 'filler' for it, for most of my life. I thought it could be in the food I ate, how many friends I had, or in a partner relationship. Years of exploring these avenues yielded nil true satiation to the feeling of emptiness I had. Reconnecting to myself, my inner heart, and the love that is within me has been the only route to leave me truly settled in myself, and no longer searching or 'yearning' for that special something or someone. The special someone is me, in true connection to love, Soul, God and all my beautiful human brothers.

I agree Simon. Love is available so easily, and yet we are not taught or shown that it even exists within us, let alone how to connect to it. What Serge brings us is simple, but will be overruled if the complexity of how we have been living our life is allowed to take over. I love that Serge continues to present this simplicity - again and again and again - in whatever medium it is needed, so that all can understand that this love is innate within them, and there to connect to, equally so.

This is true for me also Heather. Serge Benhayon has showed me how it is possible to provide unwavering support to another, but not be a crutch. When we are held in this way by true love, we do not need to give our power away to someone we think is going to 'save' us. I have spent my whole life 'rescuing' others only to now realise, by way of this man's reflection, that we can never save another, we are here to save ourselves and support each other to do this. Love is the key, not need.

I like how, with such a strong role model in Serge Benhayon, Ryan is able to view his life without harsh judgment and criticism. I get the sense that he accepts how things are and is willing to learn and progress in his learning so that he does not stay stuck in the way things are with a complacency, but in fact grows in his relationships all the time. In turn this also makes Ryan a very strong role model himself.

He presents that life can be a true romance and elegant coming together when we connect and live lovingly with ourselves.

Great point Ryan - we have to feel there is something missing from the world today if we are constantly turning to foods (like chocolate and alcohol) in order to make ourselves feel 'something', better - or fill the insatiable gap of emptiness we may have. The something we miss the most is the warmth of our innermost being, that we have not been taught to foster from young.

With this we are constantly missing out on appreciating what is already there. And the craziness is that we can live more than whatever it is we dream of. Serge Benhayon’s ‘humility, unwavering love, commitment to truth and his constant dedication to humanity has been a source of monumental inspiration and support to me’ – yes, beautifully said and for me also.

We all know when something doesn't feel right, or amiss in our lives, and yet without a reflection of how it could otherwise be we can get stuck in the cycle of how it has always been, accepting it so. Serge Benhayon provides this reflection of how life can otherwise be, and since I first heard him speak I have kept returning - of my own will - as what he has said has just made sense, and a sense I could feel in my body most of all. This is what I have learned greater than anything - is that our body is our marker of truth. No further do we have to look than the Divine particles that make us up, for therein lies the answer to all we look for.

I agree Rik, I was searching for things my entire life, as far back as I can remember. There was always a feeling inside me of there has to be more to life than this, this can't be it. I looked for it in relationships, at work, art school, religions, new age stuff, yoga, reiki, crystals, visiting other countries, partying, everywhere - but nothing ever filled that emptiness and longing I was feeling, my life was a mess. That was until the very first time I met Serge Benhayon, everything just made sense, every single cell in my whole body said yes - this was the truth that I had been looking for all along - I have never looked back or for anything else since. I remember during the very first workshop everything i heard was confirming what I had felt for so long. Even the pain I had been carrying around in my chest, for years completely disappeared and has never come back. Serge Benhayon is the real deal and an absolute God send for humanity.

The appreciation I hold for Serge and what he has brought to my life and to so many around me knows no bounds. This humble, extraordinary man has reminded me of the love and joy I always knew I that I am, that I knew was within me but didn’t quite know how to let out in the current world in which we live. What Serge reflects every day consistently without fail is the solidness of you being you regardless of what’s going on around you – extraordinary and normal at the same time.

That is awesome Ryan and I can totally relate to your experience. From someone who grew up wanting nothing to do with 'humans' (I'd never call them people back then) feeling too much hurt from the world - Enter Serge Benhayon into my life - we don't live in the same country and I've spoken to him personally and/or emailed in the last four years less than I have fingers and toes. But the way he is in his own life has inspired so much change in me I now am looking for a new job with one main criteria - I want to be with people. That in itself is amazing.

What you have so wisely shared is very true Ryan. Often what is missing most from our relationships is ourselves. Our ability to bring all of us into the equation without the guard, the falsities, the polite niceness… just pure, unpolluted love with no holding back, with no expectation how it will be received, no investment and no judgement. Serge Benhayon is the living embodiment of the way to bring what is burning within us all, out in the open for all to see and share. Thus, his way, is our way, for it is The Way back to our true selves and back to the love within our hearts.

This is a beautiful testimonial from one man to another, and there is no harsh abrasiveness. There is no bravado, one-up-man-ship, or shields of protection. There is just an immense quality of relationship here that is very solid and worth writing about because it is so unique and inspiring.

We live in a world that doesn't foster that innate understanding of how the world can be and should be from the basis of who we are. This in itself is very under-discussed but Thank God for Serge Benhayon for re-starting it all and living by what we can all feel to be how we can live. When we have a world that lives from the inside out it appears hard to do, but when someone does it as Serge has then that illusion of living as who we truly are is shattered. Living free of such a tension (that human life is the be all and end all) feels so freeing and the joy and love that comes from such a way of living you can't help but stop and stare as I always do when coming across the home page of this site.

Both Ryan McWaters and Serge Benhayon are giving everyone a beautiful example of how men can relate to eachother and to women. There is a sensitivity there that many people seek, not only for themselves but in themselves as well. It is this sensitivity, unashamedly expressed as fully strong and powerful men that is set to change the way we perceive and are in relationships will all men.

Thank God for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine for showing that there is another way to live human life, one that doesn't run us into the ground or make us want to run away from it all but that it can be embraced and have love within it and within ourselves.

It has been in accepting this surface level depth of relationship with friends that has caused too much struggle and isolation, not only in my own life but also in many lives that I have observed. It comes perhaps from wanting to feel protected after having been hurt, however, what Ryan shows us here is how there is great love to be felt when we let our protection down and allow love to be the way we are with eachother.

I agree, we do want true intimate relationships, we want to look another in the eye and feel them in all that they are and have this reciprocated and yet we allow our problems and hurts to get in the way and so we create distance and separation between us. Serge Benhayon has inspired me with his presentation of Universal Medicine, heal yourself and connect with yourself and others, and it has worked. My life has been deeply enriched through being more honest looking at my stuff and committing to expressing myself. I will forever be appreciative and deeply inspired by Serge Benhayon's work and lived quality.

From the first meeting with Serge Benhayon there was no doubt that the feeling is already like a friend, very safe and absolutely genuine and deeply trusting. And even when we haven't met yet, reading his books I also feel we are friends and this is how a relationship feels to me. It does not depend on what we do together in life or how often we meet or talk (although those are always precious) but there is a deeper connection to all of this, which does not just stay on the surface. Depth is what we are lacking in our present day society, and Serge Benhayon offers that reflection back for us to also live.

What you say here is so true 'We want intimate partnerships, marriages and unions that can last a lifetime while enjoying an ever-deepening quality of love that sees us waking up next to the person we fell in love with all those years ago feeling even more in-love today than we did yesterday'. Yet few of us if any have this, it is not hard to see when we look at what is going on in the world that our relationships in all parts of our life are failing, especially the one with ourselves! Serge Benhayon is bringing the truth back into relationships and brotherhood.

Until meeting Serge Benhayon I accepted that the ups and downs in relationships, the drabness of life at times and the push and drive to keep one's head above water was just normal. It was at first quite confronting to understand there as a whole other way to live and that someone was living it, as it did bring up all my choices to resign myself to that 'normal'. But Serge Benhayon delivers what he does with so much love, it was simply a matter of opening up to love and the possibility of what can be for all, took me right our of my self and into that other way of living as what is natural and normal, not hard work.

I totally second what you have said Ryan, my life and many of the lives of those around me have been touched and enriched by having Serge Benhayon as a friend. When Serge entered my life he did not assess it and give me a list of what needed to change - all he did was be himself - loving, respectful, with huge amounts of integrity and humbleness. Seeing him year in year out built up a trust in his consistency - that he never wavered in a world where nothing was for sure. Having him in my life has been amazing and has inspired me to be more loving, respectful and hold more integrity in what I do.

There are some very challenging comments in this testimonial, because they are so true. 'Just X more years till I retire', or 'I want to be in this relationship so I'm not lonely'. These are things I have felt strongly when younger, feeling lost and with no true sense of purpose. Yet similarly I have found my friendship with Serge, and understanding of his teachings enriches my life beyond measure, connects me deeply with myself and as a a result I have found an innate divinity residing quietly inside that is truly inspirational.

Ryan it is amazing to see how much we accept and fall for in life when we have not been shown another true way of living. This was my experience too until I met Serge Benhayon, a man of deep integrity, love and who offered another way to be. As you share Ryan it is through his inspiration that I am forever reminded of the fact that we are each equal players in this life and the quality of our relationships and life begins with the quality of relationship we have with ourselves. Learning to love and see our worth inspires us to see this in others and to know without question that we are in this life together.

This is very beautiful Ryan, as this shows us that the current ways that might exist are not our only ways. We do not have to retire if we dont want to, and for sure our purpose is not ending after our 67 years.. That I say this is because I have been equally inspired by Serge Benhayon who showed another way to life - that is not restricted to what needs to be, but what is. So this has allowed myself to open myself up again and now explore my own depth of expansion in my workfield, family life , and relationships with all. Thank you Serge Benhayon for being my best friend, best presenter of truth. With Love, Danna

That disillusionment with life is happening earlier and earlier in people's lives - the feeing of the fact that something is missing. But what I am seeing is that those who do not have a really 'good' life can connect quite easily to the fact that the way life is isn't working, but the better a persons like becomes the less likely they are to see it because it's my effecting them. What Serge allows is for people to see the rot that is going on in society and rather than just simply bettering yourself away from it, he supports people to get in there and support their communities and make changes to the systems that aren't working. His love for humanity is inspiring many people who had previously given up on life to re commit and make the world a better place just simply by living more loving in themselves.

I found this too Ryan during my working life in an office. I thought that being creative in this world was not enough so I pushed myself into the business world and found myself trapped by it. I struggled my way through it knowing it was not for me and it was only when I actually asked myself what I truly wanted that something beautiful strated to emerge. My life has been transformed through meeting Serge Benhayon because it was only then that I started to see my true qualities and what I brought to the world. Before that time I was in denial of myself and therefore stuck in the struggle of the world.

Serge Benhayon has also been a huge role model for me. Not in a 'put on a pedestal way' but in that I can see what is possible. I can see a tangible, lived way and the outcome of that way in a real person, not just an ancient, dusty text. By this example I know that if I also choose to live that way, from my own inner connection, I will see these outcomes for myself and every part of my life. That is something I love about how Serge presents. He does not just focus on wealth, health, relationships etc. Everything is included and accounted for and must be equal in love.

Serge Benhayon offers a whole new way of seeing life - one fuelled by love without sentiment or emotion but with a rawness and connection to it. With this way of choosing to be, it is clear that living any less than the fullness of love that we are, must contribute to the way the world currently is.

I am so much more of me than I have ever been and so much more able to truly support others. This wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for Serge, but he keeps showing me more and yet more. There literally is no 'stop' or an end to the line, and as I grow and the awareness of what he truly offers humanity deepens I grow ever more in awe that such a person in physical form exists and yet he is so, so delightfully normal!

I am echoing your words also Michelle, and Serge Benhayon is now one of many men that inspire me. It is a beautiful place to be in life to know when you have true support and inspiration around you and to have a relationship with yourself to a point where you know who you are and what your purpose is. There is no night out, movie, conversation, holiday etc that bet this inner knowing.

It is so true that for so many, the sense that something is missing or lacking from there life is just normal and to be expected - and yet in my experience, having met Serge, I have now gotten a life where there is no feeling as though something is missing - I know who I am and that is fulfilling in a way that nothing else is.

Ryan, well said. Serge Benhayons unwavering love has shown me that no matter what I am worth loving and no matter what everybody else is equally worth loving. Love has no divides, no barriers, no surnames - it just is. And this is something Serge has been instrumental in showing me, not by words but through his actions and relationships with people.

"For many, Integrity has become a commodity" - this is massive only because it is so true... I always have known what true integrity is and after being shaking and dismayed at the world I started to conform and dropped my level of integrity to what I knew it can be, not buy much but still I compromised. Then in meeting Serge Benhayon I was re-ignited with what true Integrity is and Serge 12 years on still is consistent, raising the bar and lives every aspect of what true Integrity is. Having this reflection I have come back to what I know is true and to the best of my ability I am apply this to my life.

You hi-light so much about our society that has given us the excuse to give up and put our feet up and retire from life, looking for a way out from taking responsibility for our daily lives, yet with Serge Benhayon he lives the complete opposite and is an amazing reflection for us all. I am with you all the way Ryan when you say, "with absolute humbleness and appreciation that my life has been enriched, evolved and transformed beyond measure as a result of knowing Serge Benhayon."

Time spent with Serge Benhayon allows for an exposure of what is not who we are and a revealing of what is. From that point on it is my responsibility to choose how I live my life, how humble and tender I can be, how powerful and gentle. One doesn't tend to consider power and gentleness going hand in hand, but they do, for gentleness has such power.

Meeting Serge Benhayon and the role model he presents is the most memorable event in my life. Prior to meeting him and the Ageless Wisdom I had made a compromise of what life is about, believing I had found the best that was achievable. However, his lived exampled has inspired me to not accept the second best of myself or life but to live the fullness and joy that I knew as a young child.

For most of my life, I can relate very much to the feeling that something was missing in the world. I kept thinking surely there had to be more to life than what I saw and although there were many times when I felt like giving up, it was during those moments of surrender that I felt a knowing that every thing was falling into place. At the age of 34, I met Serge Benhayon and that's when I felt a deep knowing that I had found truth, that which I had been searching for all along.

The end of this blog describes accurately so much of what Serge Benhayon means to so many people including myself. Yet this is not because of charisma or someone who offers a spiritual prop or words to hang off. Serge has a way of sharing an understanding of life which when claimed for oneself and taken into daily life, simply works. This is tremendously healing, knowing that all the hurts and disappointments experienced in the past that Ryan so eloquently describes, are no longer such a daunting barrier. One’s own responsibility for moving forward becomes a joyful experience -a rekindling of what we thought we may have lost but never actually did..

Ryan, that is well said: I was dismayed by the culture of the working world to the point that less than 6 months into my first job I was already formulating my ‘way out’. '' And this is how many people feel when there is an joy within them that would like to express in their working field. It is like we have build an environment in the world - where almost no true joy is allowed to be and be expressed. Actually in this way we have created a cold and harsh place, that is not supportive. However, we have created and have been part of that - and so by awareness we can travel forth our paths - destructing the old ways and build new pyramids from truth and joy - like we did before. Thank God for Serge Benhayon, who has been my absolute inspiration in my life, since I met this man I have found my purpose in life again.

How often do we look to the news and wonder what is going on? How can all this suffering be occurring, and how can we begin to stop it? And that is simply on the larger scale of humanity - then there is the microcosm of our own individual lives, where we can often feel lonely or at sea, unsure of our purpose or feeling empty. For me, and many others, enter Serge Benhayon, a man that doesn't wave a magic spiritual wand and make everything disappear into a cloud of lovey smoke, but who presents practical lived teachings that are there to inspire you to make your own return journey back to your truth, which can be challenging at times, but in the end, those question and uncertainties and feelings of being adrift in a world that doesn't make sense are no longer felt, because your own truth has been re kindled and lived.

I healed already so much in this life because of his teachings and modalities. I feel so much joy every single day that is very seldomm if you see what was the life as a child and how I was developing. I had not one ounce of self love or self worth. And look at me know, I shine, feel joy within me every day no matter the circumstances. The drama's and emotions are gone. My reacting to life transformed into being lovingly in life with everybody. Serge Benhayon you being here means everything to me. I will support this amazing work untill I die and every life after. Thank you so much.

I love the last paragraph in your blog about Serge Benhayon. I feel exactly the same and I know hundreds if not thousands of others do to. Also I used to feel like this 'Just X more years and I can retire; I’ll finally be free do what I want to do!' Only it wasn't about retirement it was about the weekend! .....'Just a few more days till the weekend!' And I know from speaking and listening to others many people say this. There is even a catch phrase for it 'Thank God it's Friday!'. What I have got to feel, see and understand from Serge is how day in day out we repeat the same cycles and feelings just by how we live. How many times do we say 'Thank God it's Friday!'. It is by being aware of this and choosing to break unloving cycles, patterns, behaviour and beliefs and living a different more self-loving way that we actually get to change this. Really truly. I know because this is what I have done with the support of Serge Benhayon, Universal Medicine and Sacred Esoteric Healing. I love my life and everyday and am so much more committed to life and what I can bring to others than I have ever been before. Also it is first and foremost about the relationship we have with ourselves as this affects everything, including our relationships with others at home, work, within the community and globally.

'I can say with absolute humbleness and appreciation that my life has been enriched, evolved and transformed beyond measure as a result of knowing Serge Benhayon.' When you write this Ryan you write for so many of us, 'enriched, evolved and transformed beyond measure' these words say it in a nutshell the profound changes that you and so many have experienced by having Serge Benhayon in our lives. A mother yesterday was telling me that when she said to her daughter in frustration 'you are always playing' her daughter said 'yes but mummy children are allowed to play its adults that aren't.' I found this reflection so sad that we have got to this point and what Serge Benhayon has shown to me is that adults can choose to get bogged down with chores, responsibility and doing; taking everything seriously. Or, they can choose to glide through life with a playfulness that is akin to that of a child. I know which I would prefer and I'm deeply inspired by Serge to continue to lighten my load and see life for what it truly is not all the issues and problems that I think life is about.

Everything changed for me too when I met Serge Benhayon. In a world you brilliantly describe Ryan, I had a natural integrity that wasn't supported by the world as I experienced it. I felt hurt, rejected and full of righteous indignation and judgement towards a world I felt was corrupt, dishonest and rotten to the core. I gave up. Serge reminded me that we are all pure and untouched by this rot in our innermost heart, that we change the world by the way in which we live in and part of the world, that our one and only responsibility is to live being who we truly are to the best of our ability and in doing so reflect to others that they too are the same - magnificent, divine, glorious and universal.

Here here to all that was written and said. Not to be critical but I remember at times talking to people and we would always discuss or end up discussing the same things over and over. At times you knew this but thought this is how it must be, other times you or they would get frustrated and then maybe brush it aside but I can recall it was like you were going around and around the same circle and ending up back in the same spot no matter how long it was since you saw them. With more understanding and awareness you can see how to support with these situations now and see it for what it is. Like the earth revolves around the sun we too cycle or circle around things until the point they are healed and without this you can be lead to think the world is still flat, just in another way.

Pondering on retirement it dawns on me that although many wish for it I have yet to meet someone that did what they really wanted to do once they retired. More often than not retirement is a time where people report feeling a lost and forgotten or spending the inheritance on empty trips away to distract from the mundane realities of life at home. I'm sure most people would much prefer a retirement where they were serving in a way that gave them great joy and vitality. Thanks to Serge Benhayon I now know I never want to retire.

'Then I met Serge Benhayon' This line resonates so strongly with me. Meeting Serge Benhayon was the pivotal moment my life changed. I can definitely categorise my life before Serge Benhayon and after Serge Benhayon. My life has been split into two halves... so much so the two are hardly recognisable as the same...I have made such strong shifts to the positive since meeting Serge that I too need to write a blog about it!

Ryan what I love in what you share is that we all want all of this, everyone, yet there are few places and with few people that I found it possible. Serge was the first and in that he inspired me to test out what he was speaking about, the difference I felt in my body is all that I needed to feel. That changed my life.

Our approach to life is off the rails, and has a serious ‘screw missing’ - meeting Serge Benhayon and his family is like rediscovering ‘the missing manual’ of being a human being. He shows it’s so possible to care, support others, work and play, all in a joyful way. Thanks Ryan for this fitting tribute.

Serve Benhayon lives the fact that deeper than the quality of ones output on a material level is the energetic quality of love placed into it. When it is void of that we are still sold products and services that are empty and do not truly serve anyone.

It’s a sad and cynical deal we do, to put our inner calling on the ‘back-burner’ and lead an everyday life. The back burner lives up to its name and harms our body in serious ways. The antidote as you beautifully show Ryan is to step forward with our heart and say YES.

Thank you Ryan for sharing your life so openly. I noticed this line "hurt by relationships that were doomed from the outset" and have to say I too have chosen relationships that were based on a compromise, but felt better than nothing at the time. Making my way back to self love has meant these things have come up to be looked at with honesty and responsibility, offering me the opportunity to have more loving relationships and accept more love into my life.

Currently the company I work for is experiencing huge change, out with the old in with the new or whatever sells for the most money, profit is King. Too be honest because of what I have learnt from the presentations and workshops of Serge Benhayon these 11 years I am able to keep steady and not get swallowed up in the uncertainty of re-structuring that is taking place. I really can now appreciate that I am already everything and so I am the center of any storm that may rage around me. This is phenomenal. Just imagine if we all had this natural ability to stay steady and centered no matter what life presented to us.

I couldn't agree more Ryan, Serge Benhayon has shown me and so many others what it is to have someone who is a true friend, one who lives in a way that says life is about love, connection, integrity and truth to name a few. For me he's the ultimate role model, and I consider it such a blessing to know him and to be reminded by him always that each of us is equal, each of us brings a bring and no one person is greater than any other.

By the time we are teenagers so many of us are already deeply disheartened and disillusioned with life that we often look for unhealthy means to cope with what we feel - whether this be addiction of some sort or negative though patten to help keep us protected from the world. Serge Benhayon is a man because he knows life and has chosen to stay open and love can remind us that we also can choose love.
His reflection shows us that in truth we are only love and all else is but the illusion we have taken on.

How you are living Ryan is the 'new norm'. Inspiring others to re-imprint what everything in life means from the inside out, just through how you are now living. That is one of the many things Serge Benhayon inspires me in that we live one life not parts of life and that by living our one life in full to the best of our a ability, it inspires others to do the same. Its also much more fun that we would have ever given credit for.

Sometimes what we want is far away of what we have in our life and yet we give up and accept a way of living that is not true for us but fits in the model of 'good'. Maybe comfort, maybe is good for others but if it is not for us, why do we choose it? It is this lack of integrity with what we feel what makes us really sad and with a sense of missing something. Thankfully there is another way.

The tragedy is that we give up on life because we cannot find what we deep down know is true and is so very natural to us. But Serge Benhayon does not waver from his inner truth and lives it in full, showing us that there is another way, that we do not have to succumb to what the world has become but can start to walk the truth that we deep down know and with every step more imprint the world with what is true and giving less and less space to the lies and corruption, paving a way for everyone to see and feel and walk on.

"We want to enjoy friendships that are accepting, supportive and enriching, yet for many we soon find our friendships confined by an unspoken boundary of surface-level depth that is acceptable between us." This feels to be a very limited kind of relationship. Taking the steps that Serge Benhayon lives, shows us a very different take on relationships, which deepen everyday in transparency and intimacy. Thank God for Serge Benhayon showing us the way- by living it himself in every way.

For my life I have been searching in how I could make relationships, friendships and my career to be "it". It was a roller coaster. having times I thought I have found "it" in of those areas, but in the end discovered it was not "it". The peeks became higher and higher, the crashes deeper and deeper. Not until I met Serge Benhayon I had a role model for one of these areas which actually showed a consistency that worked. Not just one area, for example, relationships, but a model that works for the whole of life.

Thank you Ryan, I have had the same feeling that there has to be more to life. In terms of purpose I often thought it was some kind of job or service as a volunteer that would fill the emptiness within, but I now realise it's actually living the fullness of my soul everyday, bringing the soul's loving quality to all I do, and offering soulful living as a reflection to others to choose for themselves if they wish. We are much grander than this plane of life and that's where we are heading back to. That to me is what purpose is now about.

The teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine give us all the possibility that there is a different way to live.

Very true, many walk down the aisle and swear to love each other until the moment they die yet they grow up and grow apart. The spark dies, as the fire inside them burns out through living a life that lacks love first and foremost towards themselves. The love is not their in their heart to express towards their partner, because it's not lived and applied towards themselves first. So we either become needy and attached, or cold-hearted and critical. Picking our partners apart and their deeds are never good enough. But we don't look at ourselves, and we think it's all their fault - divorce comes and we blame each other, fingers pointing, lawyers get involved and the once real opportunity between two souls to live in harmony seems like a long lost ideal. Thank God for Serge Benhayon, the Benhayon family and all other families who live with energetic integrity and awareness. Those people show that we can live more responsibility and understand situations in a way that is not demanding or harmful of others. it's an everyday learning, all of us can learn from.

We withdraw from life and lose our mojo. So many of us have given up on the possibility of ever experiencing real joy like when we were a child. We often look at children and say that those are the best years of their lives so they best enjoy them while they last. We say that because we see how amazing it is to live a life with no worry in the world, a life where the pressures that surround us don't touch the sides & how playfully children can respond to challenges. But instead of encouraging that to flourish and continue we suppress it in children and there are more and more of them who are losing this ability at an earlier and earlier age.

What you say is very true Ryan especially when it comes to friends
"we can ‘know’ our friends for years, yet can count on one hand the times we really shared a deep and intimate moment."
I have friends I have known for years and love them dearly but there is a unspoken no go area when it comes to intimacy we seem to get caught up with this words as many think it means something sexual but for me it just means a deepening of what is already there and nothing sexual at all. But as I say my friends just cannot take that next step and so we all miss out on a truly loving friendship. ​

Beautiful words Ryan, and very true. It can be dishartening to live in a world where everybody is out to get everybody else. The dog-eat-dog we are all so familiar with. But when you come across one person, just one, who lives with integrity it can inspire you to live with integrity again too. That is why it is so crucial that each and every single one of us takes integrity into their own lives and see how their world changes, see what happens at work and with family. How do people flourish when there is one person who sticks to their word and sees the beauty in them.

“Just X more years and I can retire; I’ll finally be free do what I want to do!”. A similar kind of feeling to 'just one more day till the weekend'! or 'a few more months till my next holiday'. The thing is what it shows us if we are forever looking for these breaks from life is how are we in life on a day to day level. I used to be this person, longing for the end of school, or weekend, or next holiday but what I can really appreciate now is how I no longer have this. I love everyday as much as the next and have simple moments of appreciation in the day .. a butterfly flying by my leg whilst walking, a beautiful summers evening driving home from work, a conversation with a friend sharing how we feel. Serge is indeed a very awesome role model to many living with integrity in every moment and reflecting to all the path of return.

I was very touched recently by a comment that was made to me by a long standing friend. I have known this person for years and like all of us they are dominated by ideals and beliefs we have taken on which keeps us contracted and shackled to a way of life that is uninspiring, worn out and dull. I felt the warmth of the truth as they talked to me that they had let down their guard enough to feel met and they wanted to celebrate that feeling it was at that moment a true connection of one on one and it was healing for them to express and a healing for me to receive. When we treat each other with such a level of loving honesty and trust magic happens because it fills our hearts with the most gorgeous sensation.
