Serge Benhayon – Everything Makes Sense

Rachel Hall on Serge Benhayon and everything making sense
By Rachel Hall  |  Dentist B.Ch.D (Uni Leeds), LDSRCS(Eng)

All my life I wanted answers, answers to the big things like: why am I here, what is my purpose, is there a God, what does it all mean, where was I before I was born and so on, I’m sure you get the picture…

I was an inquisitive enquiring child with an unquenchable appetite to know and learn, who was told to shush or not to be so silly when talking about her feelings or things she could sense going on around her. 
I developed into a rebellious, super-bright smart-aleck teenager who had an answer for everything, a sharp wit and a quick mind combined with a razor sharp sense of right and wrong, who would challenge the teachers, engage them in debate and then be sent out of class when I exposed the lack of depth in what was being taught.

Even though I graduated high school and University with top marks and a plethora of qualifications to show the world I was well educated, I still had no answers to my deep burning need to know who I was, why was I here and what was the point of it all. To me it seemed there was no one who really understood life and I would just have to make do and get on with it like everyone else.

I pushed through life, driven to succeed but always with an all consuming ache sitting below the surface, I tried to ignore it, numb it out with food, work, alcohol, exercise, or completely bury it with my intellect and a busy, whirring mind full of incessant chatter. Despite my best efforts to ignore what I felt, the anguish of there being something missing and the feeling of there has to be more to life than this, was always there.

I started to read books on religion but after only one or two chapters knew I wasn’t going to find my answers there, I read a few self-help books and they too fell short of what I was searching for. I even tried a handful of practitioners and dabbled in different new age modalities which all left me cold, devoid of answers and reeling from the sense of knowing these people who were supposed to be helping me were just as lost and unsure of themselves as I was.

But then I met Serge Benhayon at a workshop a friend had recommended I go to. He struck me as a quiet, simple, unassuming man with a strength of presence I had not seen before that left me feeling both very safe and overawed all at once.

We started the day by closing our eyes and taking three gentle breaths and in that instant everything changed. My body felt less constricted, my breathing calm and steady with a warmth in my heart that was simply bursting out of my chest, coupled with an inner-voice that kept saying ‘this is it, this is what you’ve been missing, this is who you are, this is home.’ 

Most of what was presented in the workshop initially went over my head, I couldn't get my mind around it like I normally would – but my body completely changed and surrendered, and nothing else really mattered. I sat there with a unwavering sense of who I was, why I was here and a knowing that I was with and from God when I realised I had tears pouring down my face. 
These were not tears of sadness but tears of joy, the joy of finding what I had been missing my whole life and in that moment everything made sense.

I can relate to all that you have shared here Rachel. I was also an inquisitive child who had a great wonder about the world but often kept quiet so as to fit in with the rest of the world. Meeting Serge Benhayon was the first time that those questions were being answered in whole. From the first time I attended presentations with Serge Benhayon what he presented made sense and continues to do so today. I am deeply grateful to Serge Benhayon for living his life for humanity offering us the reflection that we all have a deep innate knowing equally inside us all and we too can choose to connect with this.

We pursue so many things in the name of increasing our intelligence - yet we walk around with burnt out bodies. Through his way of being Serge Benhayon is constantly inspiring me, just like you Rachel, to choose to nurture my body knowing this is a truly intelligent thing to do.

I agree Joseph - our bodies fell by the wayside in our quest for greater intelligence. And it's been Serge who's showed us that this is untrue and inspired us to become whole again.

My experience of academic study entailed much ignoring of ones body and health. If academia is meant to increase ones intelligence and bring greater fulfillment how is it that many students are known for partying even when many students are young and have left home for the first time? Studying itself does not seem to be a protective factor. For myself I felt encouraged to focus intelligence outside of my body, supporting the belief that the mind is all important irrespective of ones body.

It is so true! How many times have you been to a Doctor who is clearly not well? They have dedicated many years to learning more so they can help others, but often they have neglected the care for themselves. It is time that care of self is held as highly regarded as intelligence.

I agree Heather about some doctors who are not always a picture of health. Likewise some nurses and carers are not the greatest examples, so we do not get the reflection of a healthy body to inspire us. Care of self and self responsibility for the choices we make about our health should be part of health care so that when we go to a doctor, it is knowing that we go for the doctor's specialist skill and support.

Jenny McGee

Clearly something is missing in healthcare if the health professionals do not consider not only themselves their bodies as well as the whole patient sitting in front of them.

Monika Rietveld

Yes, it sure is time that intelligence is seen as a choice and a process and self-care is part of this. Being intelligent and not take of yourself is a contradiction and not possible.

Natalie Hawthorne

I totally agree Heather most times when I have been at the doctors have noticed that this is the case. When you stop and really look at this is makes no sense what so ever. How can a doctor with all the knowledge in the world about the human body and how it functions best be so neglectful of their very on body. The way the system is set up is for us to go into survival mode and what ever you need to do to get through life you go for it. The pressures doctors go through with all the exams then from there straight into a sea of unwell human beings lining up adding more pressure is a daunting out look.

Yes Heather, I highlighted this line - "reeling from the sense of knowing these people who were supposed to be helping me were just as lost and unsure of themselves as I was"...it is like empty words are spoken when the person speaking them is either not doing it themselves or is not really 100% sure of what is being spoken. Serge Benhayon is 100% sure and lives 100% of what he speaks (not in perfection but he does it in his commitment).

Yes there is so much riding on pushing the envelope to be and create the drive of the current working model yet the rates of illness and ideas paints the truth for all to see. Self care is paramount and the biggest marker of true intelligence. Thank you Serge Benhayon for leading the way.

I have been really thinking about this this week as I have been noticing that I have been burning the candle at both ends so to speak in the quest for knowledge and recognition. And my body is paying the price - I am tired and drawn out. And I know I am not the only one! It is a constant commitment to choose to come back to the body and be much more loving and nurturing - that is where the true intelligence lies.

'we walk around with burnt out bodies' this is so true - I always wondered why I had so much energy to do all the things I did, not realising, until I met Serge, just how much all my activities were actually draining my body and I was exhausted. I was either propping myself up with sugary foods and caffeine or numbing myself with excess eating and alcohol. Since refining my diet and paying more attention to how I am living, I have a natural vitality that works in harmony with my body. Serge's ability to explain what is going helps us to understand our world and why we are in it, and everything he says makes so much sense.

Carmel that is so true I love this part "Since refining my diet and paying more attention to how I am living, I have a natural vitality that works in harmony with my body." as it shows that really the quality of our life, our health and our vitality is down to the choices we make.

I agree Joseph. We grab another little packet of knowledge to stuff away in our already full larder, but our bodies are weary and we are still anxious, susceptible to outs of depression and despair and feel like we are at the whim of an out of control life.
Serge presents from the truest form of intelligence - that which comes from a body lived lovingly. There is no intelligence like it. The larder is emptied out, making space for the real intelligence to flow. I am endlessly inspired by Serge Benhayon and the way he lives with such regard and care.

One of the things that I love about Serge Benhayon is that right from the beginning he has called out what is really going on, for example how we seek out intelligence but completely ignore our bodies. He sees through the miasma so clearly and not only sees this but dedicates his life to waking all up because we haven't not been able to truly see or address this in the way it needs to be.

The call out of what is truly going on is nowhere to be heard apart from the work and teachings of Serge Benhayon.! So often when truth is presented there are a myriad of ways in which it is often underplayed or avoided to not take on the responsibilities that go with expressing for the ALL.

'We pursue so many things in the name of increasing our intelligence - yet we walk around with burnt out bodies'. Great call - there are so many things that we chase and run around seeking to make us feel we are worthwhile and what do they get us? Exhausted, dissatisfied and miserable. Connecting to our bodies and how they feel is like a home coming and it is always there for us.

Quite right, Joseph, how we are currently doing things is obviously not working out for us. While practising the gentle breath through Serge Benhayon's online audio meditations I have discovered that I can experience a healing flow throughout my body which releases tension, makes me connect deeply with my body and relaxes my mind. There is clearly much more to us then meets the eye and appreciating and nurturing myself is something I feel I am definitely benefiting from.

What you have written Joseph makes so much sense; the pursuit of intelligence at the expense of the body has not one ounce of sense in it, but it is something that goes on endlessly, and we wonder why the health of humanity is in the mess it is. From the common sense filled presentations by Serge Benhayon I now understand that caring for me first is the most intelligent choice I can ever make.

I too can relate Rachel to growing up hungry for answers around meaning and purpose in life and looking for truth outside of myself. What I found refreshing was all Serge Benhayon's presentations were about connecting with our own inner-knowing and hearts. This has meant a huge relief for not only my body but an end to the endless and fruitless search for truth outside of myself. Connecting with this inner sense of knowing through connecting to my own breath and body more is such a simple practice but the foundation and support it provides is immense.

I looked for what seems lifetimes for the fix to what I thought was my problem - that I was broken. With the support of Serge Benhayon, the search is over, in fact it is shown as a farce. The truth is I was never broken, but simply missing the connection to myself.

This is it exactly Heather, I spent my life thinking there was something fundamental missing in me and, whats worse is, that everyone could see that about me. I just couldn't see myself and as you say was simply missing the connection to me. Those gentle breaths Rachel speaks about did the same for me, I felt the dawning of something I always knew but hadn't known I could connect to, and so simply and readily. Serge Benhayon most definitely rocks in his ability to support people to reconnect to the truth and love we all innately hold, and are.

Nicola Lessing
21/9/2015 09:22:29 pm

Yes the break is the missing connection to ourselves because once we are truly connected to ourselves we are also connected to all others. They joy is in that oneness and the pain is in the separation.

Steve Matson
28/9/2015 08:38:55 pm

Those are power words when spoken in truth to someone that thinks ‘they are broken’. To tell someone that they are not broken can tear down walls that they have hid behind thinking no one would see them. The connection is a light into the darkness that they have gotten lost in. Serge Benhayon is one of those lights.

Natalie Hawthorne

Heather what you share is something that many of us not doubt have believed -that we need to fix ourselves because we are broken. Sure the choices we maybe making is not loving so it does seem that we are not broken. Serge is the only person I have meet that really supports you to feel and get that you are everything you need to be and to stop seeking from the outside but connect deeply within. When this connection and acceptance is lived then you really do know that this is true. In fact it is an absolute Joy to be who we are.

Lorraine Harris
19/11/2015 04:52:51 am

So simple when we know the answer and for me, when meeting Serge Benhayon, my search was over too Heather. As you said, 'I was never broken but simply missing the connection to myself.'

I agree Jenny and Rachel - I searched high and low, in churches, institutions, families, friends, in travelling to different countries around the world - and knew there was something missing from life, but didn't find it until the day I attended a presentation by Serge Benhayon - then I knew I had come home, as, for the first time (at age 44) everything that Serge Benhayon presented made sense.

Jenny likewise I was craving something that made sense in life, I had almost given up fully but a glimmer of light remained and so when I met Serge i started to know and re-connect to that truth, a truth that came from inside me equally as it does everyone and it did from what Serge presented.

Rachel, this is exquisite, thank you for everything you've shared here with the grace you have. I can relate to much of it in that I too had a sharp mind as a child, did well at school but felt something always missing, a loneliness inside me because some fundamental questions were never answered -- in fact they were often dismissed. The world to me and my place in it always felt it meant more than would meet the eye. That soul-searching stopped when I met Serge Benhayon as well, and realised that all I needed to was look within myself for the answers that would take me straight home to me.

Beautifully said Katerina, I can relate to searching intellectually for the meaning and purpose to my life yet the answers always fell short and I was left with a deep emptiness and loneliness. Serge Benhayon showed me that all I needed was to turn inwards and return home no more searching or seeking.

I can relate to what you wrote Katerina and Rachel about being a smart child, doing very well at school and always having the feeling something was missing. I had a strong feeling of wanting to go 'back' or 'home' without knowing what this was or could be. I can copy your last sentence: "That soul-searching stopped when I met Serge Benhayon as well, and realised that all I needed to was look within myself for the answers that would take me straight home to me."

It was the same for me Monika, a feeling as a young child of wanting to go back home, a deep loneliness that nobody around me understood the way I felt. It seemed I had landed on the wrong planet and I simply did not fit in here and people around me were strangers with little in common. How could family not understand my missing link? I was told I was a strange one so felt I did not belong to this group known as my family. My search continued until I met Serge Benhayon. Now I am back with my family again! No longer the strange one, knowing I don't need to search outside, all I need is within me.

The moment I met Serge Benhayon and was able to share a moment with him was the moment I knew I had come home so to speak as I had found once again the confirmation of what it means to live all the truth that was inside me only I had not the awareness of how to connect with it and live it each and every day.

I love your sharing Rachel. The way you simply let go in the meditation shows how there is so much for us to learn still about the balance of mind and body, rather than just head. We've all been taught our mind has the answers and will get us where we want to be. And perhaps it might, to an extent. But can we be honest, truly honest and say that there is more than just thoughts, that our body plays a vital role in who we are and how we connect with others; and that in listening to our body, we are only just beginning a way of living that is not wrong or right, but true and connected.

This was always felt by me too and I was mystified why others didn't seem to feel it ... I love your description of meeting Serge and feeling safe and overawed at the same time, so true.

I felt the same Marian and the crazy thing is that when we find it and go to share it with others, they sometimes run a mile in the opposite direction! Maybe I was too eager for them to get it or maybe they weren't ready but for those of us who have recognised what Serge shares, it is coming home at last - to ourselves.

Dear Rachel, I think that what you say here about the questions you had about life and who you are are all common questions that all people have in their lives. And many of us, as you share, spend many years looking in different pockets of the world to find these answers. It's amazing that in simply breathing gently and connecting with ourselves, we find the answer that we have been missing and longing for for so long.

I can remember asking "what is love" as a young teenager, and being completely flummoxed as to what it was. As a young adult almost daily I would wonder why I was working, what was the point of life. As a 40 year old woman I was asking do I want to be alive in a life that is so awful. Now as a 50 something after spending a decade developing myself through "The Way of the Livingness" I know the answers to all such questions. Through the support of Serge Benhayon my body can speak and the answers are readily there.

Heather what awesome journey you have had... I have had one similar from living in a place of disspear and given up in my late twenties to meeting Serge Brnhayon and bring understanding to what life is and our part in it. The Teachings of the Ageless Wisdom without fail every time supports me to connect deeper to who I am. Now turn 40 soon I can see in the last 11 years being committed to the best of my ability accepting that I am this Enormous Love.

I can fully appreciate your experience Heather. Connecting to the real purpose of life had been sadly lacking for the first 40 years of my life too, although I had deluded myself into thinking I had found one in my working life, my personal life was a mess and it had left me feeling defeated, ill and depressed. Since meeting Universal Medicine and 'The Way of the Livingness' I have completely transformed my life and now my body and I feel united, joyful, vital. The real purpose of my life was inside me all the time, Serge Benhayon just pointed me in the right direction and supported me re-connect to it once again, something that no-one else has ever done to date, despite years of seeking in the outside world.

So true Marianna, an answer that literally lies very close to our chest. Years of searching, trying this, doing that and then within half an hour on a Universal Medicine course we get connected to the answer right under our noses! That is the exquisite beauty of Universal Medicine, every course and event brings us back to ourselves and supports us to deepen our relationship with our selves, so we trust more and more what we feel, appreciate and honour the deep wisdom that our bodies hold.

Rowena a great point, the power and simplicity of what Serge presents cuts through all the lies and brings us to a point of absolute truth, there is no time to waste even though we have been wasting time for thousands of years. The event I attended changed my life forever as everything in me knew the truth.

Rachel, your concluding paragraph brought tears of joy to my eyes also – in remembrance of that first time I heard Serge speak with truth about life, love, science, God and the great teachers of this world. The recognition from my body was more than enough to tell me that I had found the missing origins, the fundamentals that were to make sense of this life.

Yes, I had tears too Rosanna, reminded of my first time of hearing Serge speak and just how much everything he said resonated with what I had always felt but had lost through trying to find it. How much of a conundrum is that!
Serge Benhayon in his simple and practical loving ways has supported me to remember, and restore myself in, the absolute truth of why we are here, what there is to do, and who we are. All that from a few gentle breaths and a recommitment to life and love.

Serge Benhayon is indeed a world teacher of the highest order, and one of the reasons for this is he is real. He is not tucked away on a mountain living without the pressures of life, he is real, he lives a real life, has real challenges, but lives in an extraordinary way.

You can't get much more real than Serge Benhayon and this I was surprised at when I first meet him. Most presenters that get up on stage have a split life of saying one thing and then behind closed doors doing something else. The transparency that Serge offers is incredible. I have learnt so much from the way Serge lives his life and the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom.

Rachel I love this, especially the line - "I couldn't get my mind around it like I normally would – but my body completely changed and surrendered, and nothing else really mattered." - This is such an important part of the difference and the initial struggle.

The reason we can't find the answer is because we have been taught to look for them in the wrong way (intellect), but we diligently bash our ahead against the proverbial wall. Along comes Serge and in three breathes shows that there is another intelligence in the body that can make life make sense.

I smiled when I read your comment Heather - it is crazy how simple it is when we discover bashing our heads against the proverbial wall doesn't work but that through the breath and the body, all is known. It is like finding the pot at the end of the rainbow and the nugget of gold in the stream. Those things may be seemingly impossible but we find that what we were looking for was inside us all along so we need to go nowhere outside of ourselves.

It was my experience, and I have heard it from many others, that when my first met Serge and what he presented "I couldn't get my mind around it like I normally would" but it felt so completely 'right'. I love how you explain this as being taught to look the wrong way for answers. So true.

This was my experience exactly Jonathan, and even now I know there are certain things Serge will say that I have to sit with because my mind is trying to make sense of something my body already knows. I just find it as such a continuous learning for me to stop over thinking and simply allow. Serge Benhayon lives and reflects a body that does just this, and it is always inspiring to see and feel.

Joel it is incredible that when you do partake in the gentle breath with Serge Benhayon and get to instantly feel that their is a connection there that you were not aware of. As you say it was never taught instead we have been brought up to believe that it is all about what you know and coming from the head. This moment for me when I connected to my gentle breath and felt that this has so much power which was not at all from the head but my body, was the point when I knew that this was my truth.

Understanding that it is our bodies that hold all the wisdom is a complete change around when for centuries we have celebrated our brains - there is even a science fiction story where in future there is no body just a brain. This is almost as big if not bigger than discovering the world is round. It requires a whole different way of living and thinking, especially for the world of academia.

Carmel reading your comment about the science fiction story depicting a future with just a brain and no body reminded me of the phrase "I think, therefore I am". Which seems comical when you read this article and the comments which point out the fact that our brain provides just a small fraction of the immense awareness and knowing we are capable of.

I have found this to be the case, Serge speaks to our bodies rather than out minds. A mind that has been trained to preform in a very constricted and directed way - study this, memorise facts, pass this test. My life has made far more sense when re-introducing a major sense back into it - feeling energy. Of which the body is our greatest tool or radar for preforming such.

Serge Benhayon meets people completely for who they truly are and this isn't just a few people here and there when he feels like it, it is all people the whole time consistently. You might think we'll that's an easy thing to do but from my experience he also holds that person with such a depth of love and understanding it is more than we give ourselves, this then gives us a marker of just how loving we can be not only to ourselves but also each other. That is pretty awesome. God what if we where all like this? The world would be a very amazing place indeed.

True Joel - we've allowed the security of answers to come through the intellectual rather than considering the wisdom of our bodies. But what is intelligence of the mind if you can have someone use the mind to invent cigarettes, which harms the body but stills the mind? It is crazy to think that we have almost abused intelligence to create things that are not supportive. Serge Benhayon has presented to many of us the age old wisdom of the body and how by listening to our bodies, nothing new needs to be invented, but rather it is our responsibility to take care of our bodies so we can be a vessel of communication.

Certainly a question to ponder upon Hannah - how can we be classed as truly intelligent beings when we believe that it is ok to absorb poison into the body in various forms - sugar, alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, emotions etc. There is definitely a consciousness we get hooked into that makes us want to fall for ignoring and debilitating our body with a deep lack of self care and disrespect for the wisdom and true intelligence the body brings.

What you have written here Rachel makes complete sense to me too. Serge Benhayon is simply a man who doesn't hold back from expressing the truths that need to be expressed in this world. He has been attacked and maliciously lied about, but this has not stopped him from continually presenting what he knows to be true. This is a huge inspiration, and has allowed many to connect to themselves and to life in a way like never before. I am very glad I know this man.

I resonated with every word you said Rachel. Instead of excelling at school, I tended to look out of the window, day dream and draw pictures. Occasionally a teacher inspired me but I left school having not found what I was looking for in education or in the church so headed for the bright lights in the City of London. Maybe the answer was there? I tried new age therapies, buddhism, parties, alcohol, the glamours of television and the film industry and more but nothing answered my inner loneliness and so the constant search continued.
One day, 9 years ago, I got a call from a colleague telling me about this man called Serge Benhayon who was over from Australia. doing a workshop in London. Probably like all the others, I thought. How wrong I was, as that day changed my life. I knew I had touched into what I was searching for. Like you Rachel, I felt the joy of finding what I had been missing my whole life' and in that moment everything began to make sense for me too. I am now skipping along the path home with a big smile on my face.

What Serge Benhayon presents cannot be dissected with the mind alone, and herein lies one of the greatest impediments to understanding the esoteric. It is not an intellectual pursuit. It is a philosophy that needs to be experienced from an intelligence that comes deep from within our body. Unfortunately, for most of us, we have lived in such a way that serves to numb our capacity to feel the body, and so our first reaction is to deny that this form of intelligence exists. But what we discover in time is that if we start to listen to our body, it actually has much to say, and we start to understand that a true philosopher does not gain wisdom through mental deliberation alone, but by living in such a way that their body becomes a conduit through which the truth of life can be deeply felt. Understanding then comes naturally to a mind that is in alignment what is being communicated from the body.

Spot on Adam; when I first listened to Serge - there was a great deal that confused and challenged me, or made me fall asleep.
My understanding of what Serge presents now is so much clearer because I bring my whole body to it, not just my head. It is through the union of the mind and body that we are truly living, truly listening and truly being who we are.

Listening with all of us, the intelligence of our bodies is paramount when it comes to understanding the Esoteric. So many false learnings need to be undone to allow the truth to be heard, and that can only be done by letting the body speak.

Leigh Matson

I have experienced similar to what you've both mentioned here. The mind can't get its head around the esoteric but the body knows it all. We've been taught to solely be in our mind/head and discount everything else. But that life brings misery and tension, life from the body in full is far richer as Serge Benhayon presents.

What you said Adam is so true. 'Unfortunately, for most of us, we have lived in such a way that serves to numb our capacity to feel the body, and so our first reaction is to deny that this form of intelligence exists'. It's never too late to learn - and let go of all the mind-based teachings that over-rode the feelings in the body. Once this understanding is taught in schools, life will be so much easier for those going out into the world - and for those of us in our senior years, life now makes sense!

Very true Lorraine. The problem with relying on recall and knowledge alone to get through life is that it does not distill in with true confidence. True confidence comes from knowing that you are already complete - deeply so, within your own body. From that place, you know what is true, how to be, what to do next etc etc, and life becomes more about responding to impulse rather than being caught in the anxiety of the unknown. And life is full of the unknown. But what makes that so difficult to deal with is the fact that we are first unknown to ourselves, and thus we have no foundation from which to look out to and understand the world at large.

Stephanie Stevenson

I love reading your comments Adam, more and more of the true philosopher thou art is being expressed in every line you write. They are both eloquent and inspiring.
Since attending presentations by Serge Benhayon I have found that it is absolutely impossible to understand the esoteric through the mind alone. The body is indeed the 'marker of all truth' and coming back to feel and experience its profound wisdom is truly amazing and the most natural thing to be listening too.
"if we start to listen to our body, it actually has much to say, and we start to understand that a true philosopher does not gain wisdom through mental deliberation alone, but by living in such a way that their body becomes a conduit through which the truth of life can be deeply felt.

You make an excellent point Adam - "a true philosopher does not gain wisdom through mental deliberation alone, but by living in such a way that their body becomes a conduit through which the truth of life can be deeply felt". It is interesting that the education system, no matter what country, is based around being able to recall knowledge, facts & quotes, it is not geared towards building well-rounded, philosophical people, it is aimed at producing fact-recalling machines. And this, apparently, means that you are 'intelligent'.

It is ironic when you look at intelligence like this Jessica. There is much to be learnt from Serge Benhayon and how he can delivery hours and hours, days after days of presentations with such wisdom that makes so much sense. That he has not studied or prepared for the presentation to have the knowledge it is just there from his lived connection to his Soul. That is worth studying, I have been for over 11 years and there is no education system like. There is no denying that this is true wisdom and knowledge.

Adam what you share here is science. That the way Serge Benhayon lives from his inner most being in absolutely all that he does is a science that you can not argue with. For others to be inspired and to connect to this also within themselves and for extraordinary changes in their lives to take place then what more do you need as proof. Serge Benhayon needs to be studied so this science can have a greater understanding. Which is exactly what every student that attends Serge's workshops, courses and presentations are doing, studying the Ageless wisdom.

It is so true that "a true philosopher does not gain wisdom through mental deliberation alone, but by living in such a way that their body becomes a conduit through which the truth of life can be deeply felt". This is what makes Serge Benhayon the true philosopher he is and is felt in everything does and not just when he presents.

Thank you Rachel for sharing what so many people have also experienced when attending a Universal Medicine workshop, this deep sense of coming home to themselves and a true knowing of who we really are. It is quite remarkable that your mind, so sharp and attentive should flounder while your body just understood what was happening and completely surrendered. The quality that Serge Benhayon brings to each workshop is un-like anything I have ever experienced before, bringing a clear light to bear on all our un-answered questions with a beautiful humility and wise compassion, supporting us to find our own answers deep within where they have always been.

Your experience is one that many of us know very intimately Rachel. The yearning for truth in world that seemed to offer half truths at best, outright lies and worst of all absolute lies dressed as truth. I sought for answers in science and found very little there that did not attempt to crush the mystery out of life and not just eliminate God but humiliate anyone who dared mention His name. Then the New Age beckoned, but like you all I met were people as lost and bewildered as me, wandering empty through life, with a few techniques to salve their despair.
When I met Serge there were no bells ringing, or angels tooting horns. It was not exciting and not "special" as you might imagine those moments are. It was deep, very still and profound, as though time had melted away, stretched beyond meaning. The relentless seeking was done and I just knew I was home.

It was not exciting and not "special" as you might imagine those moments are. It was deep, very still and profound, as though time had melted away, stretched beyond meaning. The relentless seeking was done and I just knew I was home." - It was the same for me the deep stillness and as if there was no time...

That is something I have also felt and experienced - the depths of love that can be felt are no big deal, no fireworks or big dramas. Its like coming home. Staying home however is another matter as we live in a world that lives out in the cold so to speak. But what Serge has presented and supports by way of his living way as a reflection and via presentations is that we choose to come home or leave, no force is greater or bigger than our choice to stay or go.

Rachel you have captured the simplicity of what Serge Benhayon offers and the fact it is not 'recognised' by the head, but the body. It is becoming an established understanding that we are cardio-centric first and foremost, and your experience is certainly testimony to that. I recall a similar experience on reading the first book written by Serge... 'The Way it Is'. My head struggled to make sense at first as it was not written in the style I was used to and I couldn't wrap my intellect around it, but I felt my heart start to warm up after a couple of pages and I never looked back. By the end I felt I understood things about life that I couldn't explain, but exactly as you say... everything just made sense, and to this day that hasn't changed.

The changes that can result if one takes time to listen, ponder and apply the teachings are stunning and no other current day philosopher or presenter has ever inspired so many people to transform their lives in the way Serge has and all without one ounce of direction or control. It proves the power of presenting teachings that arise from an embodied living platform rather than from pool of knowledge.

What I love about everything Serge presents is it comes with a transparency and openness that says you don't have to believe in anything or have faith in anything. Just try this out and see if it works for you or not. Everything I have tried out and tested so far in the last 9 years has worked! That to me is true philosophy.

It is a "vicious" circle that we register deep within this is not it. I was similar too when I participated in my first workshop with Serge Benhayon - there was a deep igniting of yes I found it. I have been waiting to hear this wisdom. I loved the mystic and what goes on that we don't see -- it is the missing essential part to understanding that always asked question "Why?". Everything was answered "I am a son of God!!!". Now I live in a way where I can connect to the everything, and know everything, when I live in the quality that will honor this.

It was completely the opposite on this day, I could not 'spot the leader' and was almost shocked when this quiet unassuming man stepped onto the stage filled with a presence and grace thatI could feel so strongly - as you say Rosanna -"his manner was unassuming and unimposing there was no hype, just him, there, able to answer any question that was asked of him with such grace and ease.".

So true Stephanie, there is certainly no hype, no grand entrance, just a quiet 'lets get on with it attitude' from a man who publicly claims he is just like all of us. The humility and simplicity that Serge Benhayon presents with immediately makes one feel at ease and the manner in which he presents neither patronises or intimidates the audience, in fact quite the reverse, as Serge openly welcomes discussion and questions because what he is presenting concerns us all. However, the ease, grace and immediacy of his presentations puts Serge Benhayon in a unique category all together, one I had never met before but one that has established a new benchmark of true presentation and teaching.

I too Rosanna have been blown away by Serge Benhayon and the way he presents. There is something in the way he delivers what it is he is presenting, with such strength yet no domination, such wisdom yet no arrogance, such playfulness yet full appreciation of the work that is coming through, such enormity on the vastness of subject yet not claiming it as his own knowledge - Serge is the most incredible present that I have ever come across and everytime I have been left to feel it for myself, make up my own mind whether it feels true or not and whether I feel to return to again in the future or not. They way Serge speaks comes from his lived way of life and it is so real that not matter what I am able to appreciate and understand in full what it is he is presenting, not matter how in-depth and powerful it is. I LOVE listening and feeling what Serge presents.

I was also a very curious kid that wanted to know everything and wanting to get to know everything. That wasn't always appreciated so I shut down and became a pleaser. As soon as I met Serge Benhayon in a heart chakra workshop years ago, I felt my heart opening up like I've never felt before. I remember myself going up to him during the first break commenting that I would like to be on stage just like him. It felt so 'normal' and so 'at home'. Since that day this has only be confirmed. Again and again. Thank you Serge Benhayon, thank you Rachel Hall.

Floris, I too went into the pleaser pattern, deep down confused and defeated about life and its limitations. But since meeting Serge Benhayon and understanding that there is so much more to be aware of, that there is always something to look at and have a deeper understanding of when it comes to the world and the people in it, has opened up my heart to something so divine. The relationships I have started to build since understanding the importance of them are like no other, and Serge Benhayon's support to keep going deeper has been unwavering. He is a true gift to humanity in all respects of the word.

'what was the point of it all' or 'what is the point of it all' I am sure a question many many people ask either to others or quietly to themselves. Growing up I knew there was more to life than what I was seeing, living, being taught and what others where living. That there was a sense of belonging yet no sense of belonging at all. As I got older as well as using alcohol and drugs to just fit it and numb what I was feeling I also read loads of self-help books, went on loads of courses and tried loads of different healing therapies none of which made any real difference.. in fact most took me further away from who I truly was. The first time I met Serge Benhayon at one of his workshops in London I knew this man was different because I could feel the truth in what he presented. More than that he knew the point of it all. Serge Benhayon is a humble man with a great depth of wisdom and love that he does not hold back in sharing, and yes everything he presents makes absolute sense.

The humility, wisdom and openness is a defined and unmistakable hallmark of Serge Benhayon and he certainly does know the point of it all and its not what we commonly think it is either. Most of the self help stuff I indulged in was focussed on making my life better and changing who I was. Nothing supported me to return to myself and accept, appreciate and commit to my life like Universal Medicine has it is in a sense not of this world but makes complete sense of this world and our purpose within it.

Childhood for me was also filled with many questions about what did not make sense in life, why we were here, what was the purpose of life, why was so much in place to stop people living the joy that they naturally are, surely there was another way to teach at school that engaged and developed the whole person not just the intellect as this felt empty and grey. Then I too experienced Serge presenting a workshop and my shoulders dropped with relief, so much of what I struggled with about life growing up started to make sense for the first time ever. What I was hearing was not fragments of truth but every aspect felt whole and complete. I had not had this experience from any book, workshop or course every before.

I could really relate to what you said here Rachel about developing a way of 'getting through' when what you felt was dismissed or brushed aside as a child. This is hugely damaging to many people, and I don't think many people would realise just how devastating this is for young kids. We are bringing kids up to be 'tough' so they can cope with the world. What is wrong with our world that this is how we think life needs to be?

What you said about children feeling dismissed Amelia is sadly all too true. Children who do not fit the system, for example, those with dyslexia, are given a label such as 'special needs' which sometimes isolates them from other members of their class. Could it be that they are the sensitive ones who think differently and are more in touch with themselves? Whatever the reason, no child should feel dismissed or have to harden to cope with going out into the world. As you said, 'What is wrong with our world that this is how we think life needs to be?'

A little while ago I had the profound realisation that everything about my entire life - was actually based on a way I had developed to get through with having to feel how much I was hurt by the world and other people.
That sounds like a kind of grand - ambiguous statement but I literally mean that every part of my life, how I walked, talked, thought about myself, thought about others, ate, drank, the way I earned a living - the relationships I chose and how I was in those relationships ... everything was all based on a way to just "get through" life.

If I had never met Serge Benhayon upon reading this touching and profound testimonial, I would promptly be finding out which city he lives in and the fastest route there. Everything you have shared Rachel encapsulates the enormity and depth of this mans love for humanity and understanding of life. Likewise I had a jaw dropping experience at my first workshop where everything in my body was singing 'thank god I have found what I have been looking for'. This is it. However that 'it' was nothing outside of myself, but a reconnecting to what I had walked away from, my essence and inner knowing, which Serge Benhayon so lovingly reflects back to us all.

From what you have shared here what I can see is how this is a science, philosophy and religion that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine teach and present 'All my life I wanted answers, answers to the big things like: why am I here, what is my purpose, is there a God, what does it all mean, where was I before I was born and so on, I’m sure you get the picture…' It has also made me see how our education system has not evolved or expanded at all to include this but instead regugitating the same old things keeping everyone in the dark. I certainly asked myself the same questions you did when I was younger and knew within my body there was far more to life than what I was seeing, hearing and being taught. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are a much needed blessing to us all breaking the very ill foundations and consciousness that has been kept in the dark for so long.

What you said Heather about having no idea that feeling love and truth in my body was even possible before meeting Serge Benhayon, took me back many years to what I thought love was! Music and films came to mind, full of emotion and drama. A knight in shining armour riding up on a white horse. The list of what the perfect man would look like and offer! A reality check and life soon dispelled all those myths. Once I heard that there is not an ounce of love in emotion, I had a whole new understanding of what love is. Knowing I could trust my body and feelings to know the truth, is confirmation of what we all know deep within but often over-ride with our minds. As you said Heather, 'the greatest gift is now knowing love, what a blessing Serge Benhayon is.'

This is very beautiful Rachel, so easy to feel the truth in your words. What stood out to me the most was your initial first feeling of Serge, a feeling of absolute safety mixed with the feeling of being overawed. I could have used the same words to describe him myself in my first meetings and in fact still to this day. The overawed or simply feelings of awe, are from a certain presence that Serge holds which could easily be the norm yet it is the opposite of what we see, feel and receive everywhere we go. Serge has so beautifully been holding that steadiness so it will never be forgotten that that is our normal and that it is for all to have.

Although I was not able to express it then it was because there was, and still is, the limitless and unconditional love and support to forever ask the question 'why' if need be and not be turned away.

One of the most profound things I appreciate about Serge Benhayon, and why I wish the world to know of his true character, is that he represents and lives all that I would say is true with the world. And in a world where corruption and destitution seems to be around every corner, it is remarkably rare to meet such a man who lives the detail of what he presents. Humanity is craving for such a reflection, yet so burnt out are we by false promises, that we meet such reflections with a cynicism that is in direct contrast to what we actually crave. We want the world to be true, and we want love. We want connection. We want to know that what we feel when we take time to be still and watch the sunrise and the sunset is part of the inherent nature of us all. Serge Benhayon lives and shares exactly that which we connect to in such profound moments and that is why I stand up and bellow out my appreciation for him like a rooster in the morning, so that the world knows that such love does exist, and that such love is indeed real.

Adam you describe so well the set up and the conundrum that we have in life today. That we all know there is something fundamentally missing in our lives and we believe that that something exists outside of us and we have to go and get it or find it somewhere. This false belief sets us up to be fooled and played by the many false promises that are a plague and a prey on humanity's emptiness and need. We try things, we realise they are false, we get hurt by being played. So we stop trusting in love altogether, little do we know that the love we crave so much is actually already within us waiting to be re-connected to. Serge Benhayon has shown us that we can easily connect to the love that we are and the answer to all our problems is inside of us. He then lives this himself as a shining example.

Growing up in England ‘with a stiff upper lip’, so to speak conditioned to not show emotions and being a filthy one year old man, crying is not something that I had allowed, nor did it happen very often and especially not in front of others.
Yet over the last few years of hearing Serge Benhayon present the truth that I had been searching for all my life, the missing answers, I now find tears of Joy running down my cheeks in a room full of two or three hundred people, what a blessing that is, an expansion in my heart and a love for this ordinary yet amazing man.

What you present is very poignant Adam "we are so burnt out by false promises". This can be extrapolated to so many areas of society and it is then that the real damage that is being done can be seen. As you say, people are crying out for connection, as was and still am, I and absolutely we all have to take responsibility for our own choices that have led us to living a life of disconnection. But there is also huge responsibility to be laid at the doors of many of our governments, organised religions, legal systems etc, that have broken the faith of so many. Thus, as you say, the truth and integrity of Serge Benhayon is the most deeply needed of tonics for humanity.

Yes, I agree with you Joseph, Serge carries a profound strength of presence and stillness and I feel expressed through this is the sense of his integrity, which immediately makes one feel safe. Intrinsically we all deeply know somewhere inside us what true love feels like, so something lets go when we meet it.

The way Serge Benhayon presents is one that is full of clarity, strength, power and makes absolute sense. If someone said this to me and I had not experience it for myself I would have said 'yeah sure he has' - but this is exactly how Serge Benhayon is. There is not an ounce of 'look it me' or ' I know everything so I am more powerful than you' Serge is the complete opposite. He shares what he connects to and it is there for us all to connect to or not, simple really. Everything that Serge presents he lives and this guarantees a quality that is full of truth. You can't question this as it has all the evidence you will ever need, that is if you require it. This knowing that Serge has, we all have and the moment I heard the first words come out of Serge's mouth I knew it was Absolute Truth and yes tears were released with utter Joy.

Rachel, when I first heard Serge Benhayon present I also immediately felt “this is it, this is what you’ve been missing, this is who you are, this is home”. Since that first experience eleven years ago, there has never been a single moment when I have doubted that what Serge Benhayon presents is the absolute truth.

I never held much stock in the concept of "tears of Joy", to me it had seemed an idealised concept. Then, like you Rachel, through the presentations of Serge Benhayon, I re-connected to something so powerful, joyful and 'me' that sometimes tears are the best way to express the homecoming.

I remember vividly my first experience of Serge Benhayon presenting to a group and would say that at the time there was a fair amount of hardness in my body and nothing penetrated very deeply. However I do recall thinking he speaks so simply and directly to people and there are no notes. This made a deep impression and my mind was unable to put a handle in it for some time, no doubt a deflection of allowing what was being said to be truly felt. Yet it kept me keenly interested and now it is a totally different story - and reading Serge's books was largely instrumental in allowing the truth to resonate as they offered that truth from many angles and broke down the intellectual resistance. It felt after many readings like a healing.

Since attending my first presentation by Serge Benhayon in 2008 - one of many to date - I have not ever seen Serge refer to any notes whatsoever and yet there is a consistent flow and harmony throughout - whether it is a couple of hours or over several days at Courses and Retreats. I have never experienced this with any other presenter prior to Serge Benhayon - all he speaks is definitely not regurgitated, learned knowledge

So true, and when you pull all of the teachings of Universal Medicine together - from reincarnation, to God, psychology, the way the body works, corruption, greed, murder, love - it all starts to make common sense why the world is embedded in hypocrisy - why there are moments of profound connection and love, whilst on the other side of the street is the dark hand of corruption and deceipt. And when it is explained in the way Serge Benhayon spells it out, it is obvious that is not just due to the mystery of God. There is an explanation for the way it is, and it is an explanation that just makes sense – on every level.

When I first met Serge Benhayon I was 15 minutes late for a session with him. I had gotten lost on the way to his clinic, and arrived stressed and embarrassed. His grace at supporting me, his eloquence of understanding, and his immense care stopped me in my tracks. After two years of emotional misery at last here was someone who could help me, and hence the journey of developing a connection with myself had begun. Serge Benhayon is a man for all men in the fullest sense of that phrase.

A truly beautiful testimony Rachel and one that resonates with me. I searched high and low in churches and other places of worship, in friends, families, social places for something that I knew was missing in life though I didn't know what it was. The first presentation I attended by Serge Benhayon I knew I had come home, and that this was what I was searching for. More so, the gentle breath meditation was profound in the realisation that what I was looking for was always there - deep inside me, I just didn't know how to find it.

So beautifully expressed Rachel. How confronting it is to turn to others for help only to be left 'reeling' from the sense that nobody has the answers. Days before being introduced to Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon I had a conversation with God in which I claimed I knew that someone here on earth had the answers and I was ready to do whatever it took to find them and live true. I went to sleep crying, feeling despair, wondering if God had heard me, or if I was worthy of an answer. Turns out all that was required was a choice. The Universal Medicine clinic in Brisbane had been less than 10 minutes from my home for years yet it was only revealed to me when I chose to find it.

Rachel what you have written makes complete sense to me and I have exactly the same experience! Everything is known and every single one of us has equal access to that knowing if we so choose. That access comes with rules mainly that it is only available for the benefit of all and not for the individual self. Serge made the choice and in his absolute dedication and service to all seems to have unlimited access and shares as much of it as we are ready to receive through his books, courses and way of being. I and many others who are making loving choices also have increasing access. It is wonderful to know and experience how the answer to everything is within and also available to all.

Another amazing thing about Serge is how he asks the right questions. Sometimes Serge will pose a really simple question and I will wonder why did I never ask that, why are people not asking this question? The question itself already contains a huge answer. What we don’t like to consider is how there is an energy that not only stops us from being aware of the answers that we already know but prevents us from even asking the questions. There is a great free audio here: http://www.unimedliving.com/voice/audio-of-the-month/everything-is-because-of-energy-2015-08.html that presents how everything is because of energy and our choices.

Serge does not present anything new he just presents it from a true source and sheds light on what has been laying in the shadows forever. Everything is right there it is about starting to truly see and this requires awareness, awareness for energy.

The topic of energy isn't one you would often hear at the dinner table, in fact many would scorn why it is even a necessary discussion. But once the door of understanding that everything is energy is opened, and the realisation that this apparently scientific principle applies to everything in life, everything changes. No music can be listened to without asking, what energy is that sung in, no TV can be watched without asking, what energy is being shown, and no conversation can even be had without asking what energy is driving these words.

The emptiness is something we feel inside that is uncomfortable and we try to numb it with food, alcohol, cigarette smoke, and distractions. The feeling is the dis-connection from ourselves and from all of humanity.

One of the beautiful things that you shared Rachel was how you said that most of what Serge had presented when you first attended a presentation went over your head, but you acknowledged how your body felt during the day and after the day and the difference you noted from how you felt before hand. This is quite incredible and something well worth investigating that our body just knows when something feels very right and responds accordingly and that it has nothing to do with what we know in our mind or how 'intelligent' we are. I have observed a very similar thing. I find my body just knows it wants to go to any of Serge Benhayon's presentations, but sometimes my mind is like a teenager who doesn't want to go anywhere with her parents, which is always interesting to explore.

I was deeply missing the essence of me I shut myself away from, as well as the connection to the divine.

Totally with you Rachel, getting to hear Serge Benhayon for the first time was like nothing I had heard before, I was frightened and scared as well as curious and wanting to know more. Frightened because what was presented started to shake uncontrollably the false foundation I had built to stand on over many many years, scared because I knew it was going to come tumbling down, curious because if this was true what else was true and more to the point why was everything in the world false? Serge Benhayon lives truly all he presents and is this lifetime's world teacher. He makes absolute sense in this world of non-sense.

I can strongly relate to this as I did the same. For a while I would think yes, this is it, I have it all worked out and then realise I was as empty as I had been before and those who presented these so called 'answer's of life' to me were just as empty as I was, living lives that were all about 'do as I say' and not 'do as I do'. It took meeting Serge Benhayon before I came across anyone who was speaking with with truth and integrity in this world, and the first who truly lived love and self-responsibility in his day to day life. Thank God I met this man - I know I would be in a very different place today, had I not come across him.

What reading this testimonial of yours Rachel reminded me of was that when trying to solve things from a perception of our minds, our head we don't get the full picture. But here is a man that presents the simplicity that to understand the all your have to be coming from the all, understanding the all from the parts just doesn't add up. The body, all of it, knows far more than just our brains or minds do and even greater in knowing is the all of our being that is the Son of God of which Serge lives and breaths for all of us to understand.

Rachel what you share here echoes so much of how I felt as a child. I knew there had to be more than what was presented day to day and I also knew that no adult around me could ever share that truth with me. I felt dismissed as a dreamer or dismissed as someone who was inexperienced and had to learn life the hard way. I heard and felt the cynicism around me but could never align to it, but like you a big part of myself gave up on me as I started to doubt myself. My frustration and sadness at the world for being as it is was huge. Meeting Serge Benhayon confirmed to me that I had known the truth all along but that I made the choice to disconnect from that truth. Reconnecting to the truth in fact is very easy - consistently sustaining a life lived in truth on the other hand, on the back of how I have been, is challenging as it is forcing out all the hurts I have felt and all the unloving choices I have made. It is forcing out all the unsaid expressions of truth I have held back in the face of reaction. That said though, it is impossible to put the genie back in the bottle and nor would I want to.

Reading through the comments on this blog, what is amazing is that so many people felt the truth of life when they were young, but for one reason or another gave up on it. All the more amazing why someone like Serge Benhayon is able to renounce their life of old and turn it and themselves around without the assistance of another. I take my hat off to him. It is hard enough to open and say say yes to love when there is support, let alone doing it alone.

As a little girl I was similarly inquisitive with all the same questions, how was I here, where was I before, where would I go when I die and I can feel god so why do you not confirm to me that knowing? Like you, when I first met Serge Benhayon I felt the truth, I had could feel in my body that what he was presenting was what I was missing, it did not matter that I didn't understand because I could not deny what I felt.

Spot on with how I felt too Fiona. The curiosity and knowing of a child is magical but rarely are the answers available from adults around them. I now see children being met for who they are when they come along to workshops and gatherings with their parents. They are naturally drawn to Serge Benhayon and they will grow up knowing they know!

Everything you said in this testimonial I can relate to Rachel. From when I started reading the first book, I recall just feeling that I know what is being shared, this is where the answers lie. I felt like I finally found someone who did know what I was searching for. I have been riveted ever since. Serge doesn't present the same speel or the same old stuff that I have heard in the past from others. Everything that is presented touches deep into our souls and shakes us up every time, with so much love and support that is always felt.

That moment that it all changed for you: 'My body felt less constricted...' I giggled inside as I let the sentence stop at 'My body felt' and did a quiet but certain 'woohoo' as I realised that this was it...When I first met Serge Benhayon and heard him present, I actually felt for the first time that 'my body felt' and that this was not because my body changed, it had felt all along - it was because in those first meetings with Serge I let myself feel (become aware of) what had always been there behind a smokescreen of my own design, made complicated with various roles, stubborn belief systems and mental chattering. This is a super fitting testimonial for a man who is humbly changing the world.

Serge Benhayon, through the Gentle Breath Meditation and the way he lives the reality of his life in the presence of God within him, shows us the way for ourselves to connect too with the Ageless Wisdom we have always known is there. He supports us to open our hearts to ourselves, and find the essence within that becomes the quality of energy we live in our lives. I agree with everyone else who has mentioned it, it feel like coming home -- to ourselves and who we are. There is so much more to us that became buried under the suppression of outside influences, but now, since meeting Serge, we have the opportunity to choose to reconnect with it and feel the grandness and the joy and the expansion of living life in full.

Many meditations focus on breathing as a way to still the mind, but never before have I met a meditation that has a gentle breath - that has been a revelation to me - and to take the same gentle breath into our day in every activity has made an enormous difference to my life. I hadn't realised before just how hard I was breathing - I'd wake up breathing hard with my mind racing and a few minutes breathing gently would bring me back into connection with my body and my natural tenderness within.

Yes, I have experienced this too Carmel. Being more aware of the quality of the breath throughout the day brings the opportunity to feel any disharmony and disconnection from the body. The Gentle Breath Meditation constantly inspires me (quite literally!) to hold steady within through its use.

I agree Carmel, I have tried and been taught many different meditations and breathing techniques, and wasted a lot of money on courses to be taught this. But, the very first time I sat down and did the Gentle Breath Meditation in a friends living room, listening to a free audio, it blew me away, there were no fanfares or trumpets – very simply I was connected to myself for the very first time since I was a small child – there is nothing in this world that beats this feeling.

Like you, Rachel, I delved into books and various courses and healing modalities, looking for answers to the age-old questions of why am I here and what does this all mean? But everything that I came across was totally driven by a mental concept, and not encompassing of everything that we are, which includes our body. The crazy part was that I wasn't even aware that that was missing. I had been so driven by my mind needing to comprehend everything, that I did not realise that comprehension of the answers I was looking for had to include my body in the understanding and living of them. This was what Serge Benhayon introduced to me, but from such a humble and practically lived way, that there was no place for doubt in what he was presenting. Not to say that it was not challenging to change the way I had been living, but it has always just felt so right, like returning home to where you are always welcome no matter what has happened or how long you have been away.
This was not a feeling of 'needing to belong' but a feeling of 'knowing I belong'.

Naren, I loved reading this, and I can relate in many ways. Spiritual new age modalities I delved into where all about feeding my need to belong, my need to feel better, less broken, part of something. It was all really about tantalising my mind that was trying desperately to make sense of what didn't make sense. When I met Serge Benhayon, this all literally fell down. Not that it was easy, but even though the illusion I was in was shattered, I knew without a shadow of doubt that what I was falling into all along was the real me, I so so missed. I was falling into the arms of truth. Suddenly, everything made sense and I knew I was home, I know I belonged and that I always will.

I had the same experience, when I met Serge Benhayon for the first time..It felt like coming home and it still feels like that, every time I meet him and his family and all the other esoteric students. Like you, I was in search of more in life- answers that would really dissolve my patterns and problems. Nothing really impressed me for a long period of time, because I could feel, that all what was done, was either on the surface or just managing the patterns, for example how you could manage your anger better to not affect others and yourself- but they never really got to the root cause, why I reacted this way. Since I met Serge my life started to change, because he is a man that walks the talk and just presents truth and love in an all encompassing way. How could you resist to that?!

This is a great example of no matter how educated we are it still doesn't teach us how to re-connect to us living this consistently in being all who we are 'I had no answers to my deep burning need to know who I was, why was I here and what was the point of it all'. We are not taught this, we are currently not taught about the cycles of life, the Universe, the Wisdom, Love and Truth or how to live spherically and no-one I have met has been able to teach this apart from one man and that is Serge Benhayon. I am continually blown away by what he and Universal Medicine present and I have been attending the courses, workshops and presentations for nearly 10 years. Without a doubt I feel in my body what Serge Benhayon presents is true, my part (like everyone else's) is to re-connect to this and live it consistently then when the next generation feel like you or I did they will have more people reflecting to them the wisdom they hold within and the truth of who they are.

It's so easy to shush a child, to stop them being themselves, and this is what we do far too much of as parents and educators, instead of saying, 'hey, I can feel you want to express, share with us'. Imagine if children were encouraged to express fully - what kind of world would we have today if this had been the way for Millenia? Very different to what we have today, where children are shut down and shut up, when most of the time they have more wisdom than the supposed 'grown-up's'..

This is so true Ariana - Children are so all-knowing through feeling everything around them - no wonder they can be in so much reaction to parents as they experience the lie the parents are living when their actions do not match their words.
Many children are just plonked in front of TV sets or given electronic games to play with to keep them occupied, This shuts down their expression even further as they become more insular.

I agree Ariana and Stephanie. I often see young children with electronic toys, totally absorbed in it. Maybe at some level they feel safer with a gadget than parents who are not expressing their truth! When adults encourage children to express and share their feelings, listening to the wisdom of a child, the world will change, as they begin to feel met and grow in confidence, trusting the adults around them.

Being ' told to shush or not to be so silly' is a common reaction for children's enquiring questions, but the impact on children is often devastating. It's almost guaranteed to shut them down. Adults often do not want to have to answer those difficult or challenging questions, we don't want to have to stop and reflect on what is the true answer to what is going on in the world, or what is the purpose of life. Having the wisdom to be honest with children can expose the emptiness of life, but it can show children that there is a way of being with it that doesn't mean we all join in with the emptiness.

What you share here Ariana is super important. It's devastating to see and hear how children are dismissed and what this actually does. Children offer all of us fresh eyes untainted from the harshness we experience in life. The wisdom and innocence with which a child can express reminds of our own, what we might have left behind or quite likely shut down after we were dismissed as children also. There is a huge cycle to be broken here. Every time I hear and see a child express from their joy and their heart, it's a knowing in my own heart of the heavens we all come from.

I did this at school, Uni, at work, in my family life and also in my spiritual new age encounters knowing with the same astuteness as you that they weren't 'it', but in my mind were better than nothing. Your comment about your first experiences with Serge Benhayon, presentation of the gentle breath meditation and just knowing that this was life changing, had me pondering how simple it is to connect, when we have someone in our lives who does not impose, but simply presents the truth, knowing we all come from it and know it within us. Serge Benhayon is the first person in my life to reflect this through his livingness 100%, which after much disappointment was the powerful support I needed to trust again that life is much much more than we settle for.

Being willing to see all that is happening around us clearly and with open eyes can be sometimes a challenge. It can at times appear to be a smoother easier road to take if we choose to not see exactly what is happening, and to not ask questions about it. Children have a natural inquisitiveness because they still choose to see the all, which also includes everything that can be rotten and harmful about human life. As adults somehow we have grown up to live with blinkers, shielding ourselves from the facts before us perhaps for convenience or security. Serge Benhayon is so awesome because he still chooses to see with his eyes fully open to all that is happening, not shying away from the hurts that happen or the insidious lies that can occur. And by this choice, he is inspiring a generation of people who are learning by his example the power and the strength that comes from being and staying aware.

I have learned many wonderful things over the years of attending presentations by Serge Benhayon, and have been reminded of much that I had innately known and had sadly overridden, but one of the most outstanding revelations has to be what true education is. The education system that we have today is not supporting our children to grow up understanding what life is truly about and giving them the answers to what you, Rachel, and many of us were forever asking. Instead it is focused on fostering recall, passing it off as intelligence and in the process creating competition and comparison that does nothing but foster a sense of separation and lack of self worth in the students. On the other hand we now have in Serge Benhayon, a great teacher who is showing us how to truly educate both young and old, and with it the joy of understanding the way we live and the magic that is there for us when we learn to truly live in harmony with ourselves, each other and nature. He is without a doubt the man who has made everything in this world make sense.

It wasn't until I attended a workshop presented by Serge Benhayon that this searching for truth stopped.

When are we ever given the opportunity to have everything make sense? I mean real down to the bone and out to the stars make sense. When are ever given the opportunity to deeply explore the vast resources that lay there inside perhaps unawakened, and when does anyone ever look at you and know it is all already there and that you have the power to be you - a part of the great and expansive universe?
What is so poignant is that once these things have been discovered the natural tendency is to want to share this with everyone else, and this is what Serge Benhayon does so well, the results of which can be seen by all the testimonials and comments and articles on this and the many other websites that support both him and the students of the The Way of the Livingness.

I recall from day one, many long term questions and issues I had about the general beliefs in society and about what I had been learning as an alternative health practitioner, started being answered one by one. It was as if Serge Benhayon was just speaking to me and addressing my questions! Many of my past assumptions were turned on their head with a great inner ahah! For the first time everything started to fall in place. I did not by any means understand everything, but from what I could relate to I knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was in the right place and that Serge Benhayon was presenting the greatest level of Truth I had ever come across. This knowing and appreciation has only increased over time.

What a profound joy it was the day I had that same feeling Rachel, “Yes, this is what I have been searching for”. As you say, most of it went over my head but my body exhaled and I knew there was no more searching…. Just a whole lot of unraveling of all the stuff I had taken on along the way, which I sensed would take time, quite some years. My mind didn’t like this part! But I knew there was no other way.

One of the great things about Serge Benhayon is that he is always evolving - there is always a way of living that we can look at that is greater than where we are living right now

Yes, this is true Carmel. The universe is always evolving and being more of itself and as Serge Benhayon consistently presents and lives –we are part of this Universal rhythm and being pulled to evolve whether we are choosing to be aware of it or not. Resting on our laurels and digging our heels into resist this pull, is a pre-cursor to illness and disease.

Serge Benhayon is that he is always evolving – I love the fact that among all the reflections he provides that reminds of us of the truth of our essence is this fact. And I appreciate my deepening understanding of what the word evolve means, it is not transforming from ape to man, but it is from this place that we are, a long way from the truth of our essence, returning to the grandness that we once left – the expression of our divine essence, our Soul, our oneness with God. Once you get an inkling that life is about healing, evolving and expanding – everything has a greater significance.

As many times as I have said thankyou to Serge Benhayon it was never enough because afterwards there would always remain an empty feeling inside. Then, one time I challenged myself to not go up and say thank you, but to remain in my seat and actually feel the appreciation I had for him, without the need to have it recognised by him. What followed was a deep sense of appreciation for myself, and for Serge as the equal people that we are, albeit with different levels of experience and a different purpose to life. The essence of who we are remains incomparable, and therefore no need for recognition from him is required, as I can show my gratitude for all that he has given to me and so many people by actually living in the truth of the love that I feel in my inner-heart. This is pure gold and goes way beyond any one moment of gratification that I may receive. This is how what Serge Benhayon presents makes so much sense, because everything is brought back to us and in the everyday, with no one exalted or given any more power than anyone else. We just all are responsible and equal.

And this is the key really, isn't it Carmel? Integrating and living the truth of what is presented. At first we register the truth, nod and observe it. Then we start to find ways of exploring it, dabbling with it, trying it out. Then sooner or later, we reach a point where we realise it is 'yes' or 'no'; there is no maybe and we commit to making it the way we just naturally are. It is at this point that it becomes one's own, and it is unshakable because it's not an idea but a lived truth.

Deep down we are all looking for answers, and I've looked in my fair share of dusty book shelves and ancient retreats. I've tried fasting, meditating for hours, disappearing into the Himalayas but the search has always been in vain. It took Serge to simply point inwards, and at the same time inspire me from the way he lives and the connection with his own innate divinity. No more searching, just learning and deepening from here on in.

Rachel your testimonial gave me goosebumps as I felt how I too had spent most of my life looking for meaning 'out there' until Serge Benhayon presented quite simply the opposite. All those answers we seek don't lie outside of us but within and from this knowing the search ends and our reconnection to self can begin.

Knowing there had to be more to life I’d done the self help thing and even gone back to give Christianity another go thinking maybe I’d missed something or I just needed to try harder to understand it and tried every form of “healing” modality on offer but the from the moment I heard Serge Benhayon present I could feel the absolute truth in what he delivered, it made absolute sense not on an intellectual level but deep within my body. I realise now that there was a feeling of joy at recognising what I already innately know but had forgotten.

There is such a solidness and ordinariness he presents that is just lovely, and you are reminded that you are so much more and there is so much more to you. And most of all that no matter what you are met with utmost care and love always. Thank you for writing and capturing so much of what Serge is.

No matter how hard we study, how high and further education we go to, how many books we read – we never seem to find answers to the kind of questions we most want the answers for in what we currently refer as intelligence. And most adults just do not know how to handle those questions from children, so they shush. Maybe they feel just too uncomfortable realizing that they had lost that sense of wonder and gave up on life long ago.

It stopped the constant search and finally allowed me to rest my body and start to surrender to the love that I already am.

In that short space of time I realised I was being presented with Truth and I had to question and re-assess everything in my life which until that moment I believed in and held to be true. It resulted in a complete paradigm shift of my life. Even though there have been many challenges, I can truly say I have not had one regret.

I would regularly find myself sobbing uncontrollably on my bed, wondering why I felt so desperately empty and grief-stricken. I searched too, but it wasn't until I went to the Heart Chakra 1 workshop (now Livingness 1) presented by Serge Benhayon, that it all started to make sense to me. I felt like I had come home - and I had, because for the first time in this life, I had felt what it was like to connect to myself, to my innermost. In our innermost we have the answer to everything we could ever wish to ask.

"He struck me as a quiet, simple, unassuming man with a strength of presence I had not seen before that left me feeling both very safe and overawed all at once." This is how I felt when I met Serge Benhayon in 2003, he was so unlike any other healer I had met before, unassuming and allowed me to talk without trying to direct me or tell me what I should do. This threw me initially as this is what I had experience from other spiritual healing, but there was something within me that wanted to know more that felt true, it was nothing he did or said but I could feel in his allowing me to just be that this was something that I had been looking for all my life.

The first workshop of Serge Benhayon's that I ever went to I recall sitting back deeply in my chair and going, I'm here, this is it, everything I've always been wondering about. I was amazed that in a room of around 100 people it was like he was talking directly to me. This still happens often when I attend a course or a retreat and have a whole new level of awareness presents itself.

Rachel I too felt like you that I wanted to know the answers to the big questions but I gave up in my early twenties and then went into therapy. Like you when I did the gentle breath mediation for the first time it was a game changing moment, I felt something that was very different and very much home all at the same time. Like many of my friends have said "you don't want to miss a word that man says" and they never return, I appreciate the fact that I saw him, connected and then came again its quite a challenge to see your life for the reduced form it is and then go about clearing out what gets in the way, which Serge gives us many practical tools to do so. It is an amazing blessing to be in the orbit of the ancient wisdom.

Rachel, I relate to your discribtion of how you were in high school, I was also a very inquisitive child that turned into an argumentative teenager, constantly challenging others, I couldn't understand why everyone was playing along with this crazy game we called life. Frustrated and lost I turned to drugs and alcohol as a way of escaping all my confusion.Which as you can imagine did not help. When I met Serge I was in the midst of this and my experience, much like yours Rachel, changed my life for ever. I went for a session with Serge and knew I was home, all the running and the pain and the turmoil just didn't seem important, as he introduced me to myself again and boy was I amazing, far more enjoyable than the pack of cigarettes consumed daily. Within a very short time frame I stopped smoking, drugs, drinking, coffee and changed my diet. I did all this without will power, instruction, without being told or trying, all this just from the living inspiration of Serge and his family, I am forever grateful.

I, like you Rachel and many others who have already made comment, was going through life superficially doing OK but nonetheless with a sense of dissatisfaction that there seemed to be no way to get answers to my questions about life etc. Then I was introduced to Serge Benhayon via his audio presentations. The more I heard, the more I wanted to hear and eventually made the decision to attend a workshop in person. Finally, here was someone who could answer any questions anyone put to him and was warm, honest and consistent regardless of who was speaking with him. What an inspiration to the world!

That hit the nails, but truly in an amazing and only loving way.

And in every workshop Serge answers everyones questions, and I don't feel there are any other teachers out there who can offer the depth of answers he offer, nor his ability to engage people in their own healing. I have never come across someone with such an all encompassing understanding of life, of people and a warmth in how this is delivered and shared, humble and deeply inspiring.

Thank you Rachel, prevalent sharing about Serge Benhayon and the work he brings. It may sounds cliche but equally I had those same questions.. yet unanswered for whole my life, until I met Serge Benhayon. It was like I had been living in a prison that was limiting me from seeing further, not being aware and held small. So my best gift in my life was when I met Serge Benhayon, that I got this clear view back again, and there I lost this prison that I thought that was my own (life).. So the best ever gift I have ever received are all the tools I got by Universal Medicine through Serge Benhayon. I am now able to truly heal and let go of everything that is in the way of me being Who I Am and discarding all the lies (prison) I have led myself believe that were me. Which is the very very very best gift ever. So much , that only my heart knows the way to love now and I got no other 'thank you' then living everything I am offered.

Serge Benhayon was the first person that reflected everything that he shared, everything was coming from his experience of truth and every word he said in the first workshop and every since makes total and complete sense.

Rachel, as you have said with Serge Benhayon, 'everything makes sense'. There is nothing hidden or out of the ordinary about Serge or Universal Medicine but rather the fact that he makes living life based on love completely normal and ordinary. It is normal to live embracing life and all as equals even though we currently live in a world that is counter to this. Just because the majority of the world lives in struggle does not mean we have to - but it does mean we have a job to do and that is to show there is another way, just like Serge constantly shows everybody he meets.

I can relate to you writing that 'these people who were supposed to be helping me were just as lost and unsure of themselves as I was.' I recall feeling the same for all the assortment of people I met who claimed they knew all the answers. Not one single person who `i met or read actually lived what they talked, and they were all full of talk but walked nothing but nothing. It was this disparity that got to me every time and I'd walk away feeling more dispirited that ever. That is the plan though, to get us to feel the emptiness of the spiritual new age and loose trust in what is true. But I didn't - as soon as I heard Serge Benhayon there was no denying that here was a man who does walk his talk and he has never stopped doing so. Thank God for Serge Benhayon.

I reckon nearly everyone at some point in their life asks these questions at least once! 'why am I here, what is my purpose, is there a God, what does it all mean, where was I before I was born and so on'. When we remember and that spark of truth, love and wisdom is reignighted within we have a responsibility to share and reflect this with others. Serge Benhayon is the worlds re-ignighter of lights. A truly beautifull man with a firm knowing of why we are here and where we need to be and are going. No second guessing but a truth that is known and lived.

The ordinariness and extraordinary way that Serge Benhayon lives his life is deeply inspiring. For example, he does ordinary, everyday, 'mundane' things that we all do, only Serge consistently brings a clear quality of presence to everything he does, whether walking the dog, cleaning out rubbish (garbage) bins, going into shops, taking part in household duties equally so with other family members and so on. This is what makes so much sense of what Serge presents on commitment to life and living love in full – and this is available for each and every one of us by making different choices and living with more honesty and self responsibility with ourselves.

Everything Makes Sense - for me the first time I could utter those three words and truly mean them was after meeting Serge. Everything I felt, everything I knew to be true in me was confirmed in a single split second. Since then I have allowed more and more that into my life, when I look around I can clearly see how society is living in the "nothing makes sense" yet also equally know inside what is and what is not true.

Eleven years on I am still attending the various Universal Medicine presentations and workshops that now make so much sense to me in my own life.

To meet a man with such a huge love for humanity and everybody was a deep blessing for me and my life. Not only that through attending his workshops I found back from a deeply exhausted body to true health and vitality, also life makes much more sense now and I start to enjoy and love life including its challenges. I am deeply grateful for the wisdom Serge Benhayon reflects to me through his way of life.

I was a very inquisitive child myself Rachel as I knew innately there was much more to the this life then meets the eye, I knew there was reincarnation and I knew we came form something big. But I did not find anything that confirmed this to me in the world around me, until I met Serge and I knew I was home, home to me and my divine origin.

Like you Rachel, when I connect to myself as a child there was a strong sense of 'knowing' life was about love and connection to something bigger but it was not reflected back from family or education or society in general. I found it in nature and this was my go-to place. So, when I first heard Serge Benhayon, I too had a strong sense of home coming. It now all made perfect sense and with Serge's support and presentations I can stay true to my knowing in a world which reacts and resists to so much of what it knows to be true and the love we are all from.

When I first heard Serge Benhayon's voice via an audio recoding he had made, it was like every cell in my body woke up from a deep and unsettled slumber. Everything he talked about on that recording made sense, but not just because he was talking so much sense, but because it was the truth of what I already know being confirmed back to me. It was a life changing moment, and the start of a very long road of return that I have been willing to walk ever since.

'All my life I wanted answers, answers to the big things like: why am I here, what is my purpose, is there a God, what does it all mean, where was I before I was born and so on, I’m sure you get the picture…' Same for me but I started as a very quiet and shy girl longing for love, lots of questions and no answers. After a life full of distractions and delving into the spiritual new Age, my husband started with the Gentle Breath Meditation, listened to audio's of Serge Benhayon and read the purple book 'the Way it Is'. It took me a while but when I embraced the meditation, read the book and listened to the audio's it was very clear everything else had been an illusion and meeting Serge in person in England was the confirmation I had returned to a very old friend and to the light we all are.

I can remember wondering as a child 'was this it' and yet I had a deep knowing inside me that there was more, so much more than what was going on around me. I was forever pondering and if I dared asked questions yet no-one seemed to have the answers. On reflecting I seemed to share how I was feeling with my cousins when they came to look after me, one of which insisted on praying before I went to sleep but that didn't feel true to me. It was not until I met Serge Benhayon in 2004 that something changed. It was not obvious at first but I felt something I had not felt before. On reflecting what I was feeling was truth and from that first initial meeting I wanted to find out more.

It is amazing how we constellate in every moment to support us to evolve. I was a 'good' girl and found school hard work and boring except for a couple of subjects. I couldn't wait to leave and then I began to experience health issues. It is through experiencing illness that I came to meet Serge Benhayon and as I began to make changes in the way I was living letting go of that which was not true from within my body the illness and disease naturally disappeared. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine supported me to get to the root cause so that a true healing could occur.

The moment when I heard Serge speak - I knew that the truth inside me, was finally able to come out and be known - and so I felt more at home then I ever felt before. Done, before my head could follow - my heart could not resist in any way - as it was love, and since this day I am on the path of living love again, this truth I once did not know how to let out and life. Now I know , now I can, now I am.

We can spend years, lifetimes even searching for 'it' or 'the answer', I know I have done. The thing is it has been within us all along we just looked in the wrong place. It's like putting your face up against a brick wall and pushing it to try and make it move and not turning around and seeing the very room and space you are standing in! I am very glad I found Serge Benhayon or was constellated to him and I know many others, as you are too.

That is exquisitely powerful - beauty-full, and magical at the same time. As it shows that one is united by truth(love) and not by agenda or belief. This actually shows the true origin of religion , and not the bastardized ways. Thank God for Serge Benhayon who shows the world there is - another way - we all can walk - and we are all from. That it is simply receiving what he says, writes and or shows - simply by showing the depth of connection to the universe within. Do we see it or walk away? It is so our choice.

Isn't it interesting how we can get all the education in the world... lots of letters after our name, and yet we don't get the answer to Who am I? and Why am I here? So we might spend a lifetime searching for these (or simply accept a lesser life without answering them at all), but Serge certainly changed that for me. Here is a man that lives with purpose, that inspires me to share who I am with humanity, and to not accept a status quo becuase its normal, but reach for the truth in every aspect of life.

I found this testimonial very touching. I feel a lot of us have had the same burning feeling that no one has the answers to the big questions in life.

It is one thing to know truth in our heads or minds and another altogether to feel truth in our bodies. Serge Benhayon presents in such a way that supports us to be more aware of what is happening in our bodies and.to make choices from our own understanding. He holds us energetically and allows us to reconnect to the absolute knowing of who we truly are without any imposition whatsoever. The Gentle Breath Meditation is a great technique that allows us to begin to hold ourselves in that same love.

I'd been to quite a few different presentations by people talking about energy, healing, spirit, soul and what life is all about on a deeper level but from the moment I first met Serge Benhayon he stood out as being different in a very beautiful way, the feeling of his presence - solid and unimposing, warm and totally humble and meeting everyone as an equal. After hearing him speak and move and seeing how he was with everyone that he interacted with I knew that what he was presenting was what I had been looking for all along. It's like re-discovering a treasure that you knew existed but couldn't seem find on your own.

It does not matter how hard, or in how many different ways, we endeavour to suppress the quest for answers 'to the big things', even if we give up searching, the quest does not go away. It does not go away because innately we know the present way of life is not true but instead is a false parody of the true glory of how it is intended for us to live. Serge Benhayon is a shining guiding light to the answer of this quest.

Looking outside of myself to make sense of life always leaves me feeling lost and confused. Serge Benhayon is the first person I have met that presents, makes sense and speaks to everyone on a level that says 'you know this too' and I can try to pretend I don't understand but it is far more beautiful having a relationship with what is presented that says 'I know that too'. Most times now my questions to him are confirming of what I've already felt. Rather than being stuck in the unknown, but even then those unknowing questions he brings it back to the fact that I do know.

Try as I might as a younger man I could not find that religion that I could relate to - bits of truth sure but not the whole enchilada. However, Serge is different becuause he is living it.

Lovely sharing Rachel. Through Serge Benhayon and his teachings I also discovered who I am, a tender, deeply sensitive man who needs to nurture him self to the bone to stay connected to the love he is. Once I had experienced feeling the love I am, I did not take it as this one time marker, but as a something that should be a continuum in my life.

This article makes me laugh as I remember the same questions and the same dismissal as a child. It's like part of your story is my story as well as anything I did in the world didn't answer the questions I had had during my childhood. The questions and at times pain of those questions always remained, until that is I met Serge Benhayon. The way, quality and depth things we presented made me realise and continually understand what and where these questions were from. My questions weren't answered in the traditional sense it was more that by understanding more the questions I had always asked the answers then also were there in the same way, like magic.

Rachel I keep coming back to your blog as every aspect of life that did not make sense before appreciating the teachings that Serge presents that everything is energy, now makes sense or at least is something that i understand. That easement in my body that comes from honouring that knowing of what is true and being confirmed in my feelings is what was missing from my life.

It’s easy to go to practitioners and friends and be stuck in the rut of saying ‘I have this issue or that’ but if we truly sat with what Serge Benhayon has presented we’d realise we’ve already got all the answers. Serge gives us everything a million times, without holding back. It’s just down to us to truly feel the truth and give up the props of difficulty and struggle. Thank you for this post Rachel.

All my life too, I wanted answers to the bigger questions of life...'why am I here, what is my purpose, is there a God, what does it all mean...' I had no idea that they could ever be answered, or would ever be answered. I just knew that life did not make sense in any way shape or form. No religion, or philosophy I had ever heard of could explain life in full. Then I met Serge Benhayon and everything fell into place!

“We started the day by closing our eyes and taking three gentle breaths and in that instant everything changed.” If you shared with most people that your whole life changed by taking three breaths I am sure their first reaction would be one of disbelief, followed by an expressing of worry as to what you had been up to. But like you, it was those gentle breaths presented by Serge Benhayon that turned my life around too, in fact turning it back to a way that I knew was the true way to live.

I have come to the realisation that mostly we live our lives based on lies which we have made into our reality. By asking open ended questions Serge Benhayon is asking society to reconsider what we know and to question if it has any validity. No one else seems prepared to ask these questions to support us all to climb out of the current mess we are in.

Even though like you a lot of what was presented at my first workshop went over my head, there was at the same time, a lot of what was presented I knew, but it was like I was being reminded of what I knew but perhaps forgot. I had a very strong sense that even though a few words I didn't quite understand, but non of that seemed to bother me. In fact I remember feeling that it would be all ok and that I would understand. But not thorough looking anything up but through living what I did understand, then the rest would follow.

When we push through life, no matter what we achieve, all we find is emptiness and therefore the need for more. When we stop pushing and we connect to what has always been within, we realise that there has never been a need to push or search for more, because everything is already there, we just needed to stop to re-connect to this. That is one of the many brilliant things presented by Serge Benhayon.

How different would be this society if we encourage children to trust in their inner senses. If they wouldn't left aside from 'adult conversations', they could contribute from a very young age bringing their all at home, at school, with their friends...there would be less tablets and more communication in the family, less giving up and more responsibility and hence more joy. They would grow up and wouldn't need a ounce of alcohol or drugs in their teenage years to have fun because the contentment of being in life so full and alive is more than enough. They wouldn't need to seek desperatly answers outside, giving their power away to anyone because they would be remain steadily connected to their Soul, which leads the way in a very clear way...

I can see a future where children are not reduced simply because their body is smaller, they are seen and met as equal. So their answers and questions about what's going on will be welcomed, as the opportunity to question a system that brings us to sell ourselves to fit in rather than being who we really are in every given moment.

The first time that I attended a presentation from Serge Benayon I didn't speak English and hence I didn't understood him. I tried to seek words in my mind that I could grasp but it didn't work. The energy in the room felt like coming back home, his presence, the way he presented invited me to feel my body. I noticed that it felt really expanded there, all what was presented resonated as Truth within me. I remember enjoying of a very loving opening up to my senses, to who I am for the very first time in my life. My body understood very well what my mind couldn't. It was a new beggining that I'm still appreciating, very much so.

On reflecting back to when I first met Serge interestingly it was a combination of things that I knew there was something about this man that I had not seen in another. This was how he moved, how he spoke, what he spoke, how he felt with others and how he felt to me. This just goes to show then when we are listening or talking to another a lot more goes on than we think it does and just how sensitive we are in what we pick up from our surroundings.

It is great to read how you responded to the books on self-help and religion, how these seemed interesting at first, which of course they are, but then it became clear that they did not hold the answers that you were looking for. The reason that I find this great, is because it shows that you knew and still do know, that truth comes not from the mind that thinks it, but rather from the body that lives it. And this is perhaps why your response to Serge Benhayon has been as it is, because he presents the truth from a lived experience that we can all relate to.

To me it seemed there was no one who really understood life and I would just have to make do and get on with it like everyone else.' and like you I tried religions, self-help books and new age things but nothing touched what I felt within yet could not express that was until I met Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine where again like you I felt like I had come home what was being reflected on the outside by Serge resinated with what I knew to be true within. And it has continued from here, that is the learning, healing, letting go, deepening and unfolding but the searching for the truth had stopped because I had found it. And also like you in Serge's presence I feel incredibly safe and overawed as well. I deeply respect Serge, what he represents, lives, teaches and reflects it is truly a blessing to know him and his family ✨
