Serge Benhayon – Living from the Truest Sense

19/3/2019

by Heather Pope

The work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine is unique in the world in that evolution through a soulful living way of being in everyday life is paramount. This is not just a game changer, but a walking away from the game of being a better person and having a better life. Universal Medicine stands tall in its resolution that living from the truest sense of who you are will undoubtedly change your life, but that is not the goal, in fact there is no goal. Instead there is a changing of batons from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is, purely by living from an inner way that reimprints every aspect of life.

In March 2019 a Universal Medicine annual retreat completed with a majestic offering to all of the participants, that being, the day the scheduled retreat ends, is the day the retreat starts within the life of each participant. Such is the depth of richness of what is offered during the 5 days of retreat, that each person leaves knowing that their life within, that is the way they know themselves to be through their lived experiences, their focus, their definitions of life and modern living, and their purpose in that life, are firmly standing on new foundations.

There is a singular foundation that indelibly alters the living way forth of each participant in that they know themselves as a Soul first and human being second. Soulful living offers no get rich quick programs, or find your perfect mate, or fix your weight problems forever, but instead says “the richness of who you are within is all you have been searching for”. This precedent is the game changer for every aspect of life and the reason why the so called “retreat” never ends.

Once you have lived with the connection to your Soul, had breakfast with it, walked with it, worked with it, and loved with it, there is no going back to a life without it.

When we live from our Soul, there is not a more nourishing way of living. It brings eternal joy, it brings a harmony between us and humanity and the universe, it brings a lightness of being and a settlement in the body and our heart keeps filling up with a love that is infinite. We are complete.

I feel you have touched on what humanity yearns for Maryline that sense of true fulfillment that's when we don't seek someone to fill the emptiness within that we can all feel as we have filled the emptiness ourselves by reconnecting back to our soul. When we do this it's a game changer.

"we are complete". How many of us can in truth say this? I am sure many would say they were but delve a bit deeper and understand the difference between living from function or living from essence and the lie of security; investments in what we do, in our families and in our comfort is utterly exposed.

"A walking away from the game of being a better person and having a better life" - stunningly put and so true. We have been so so reduced from the true magnificence of who we truly are to maneuver through a life as we know it, but it is no betterment or improvement that will restore the fullness of what is. There is nothing to improve. Truth has always been true.

‘..there is a changing of batons from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is, purely by living from an inner way that reimprints every aspect of life.’ So beautifully summed up Heather. The change of focus here is profound in what it can deliver to the quality of life we experience. In my own case, life has changed so much with more purpose, joy and love than I once thought possible and it continues to grow.

I love it Heather, this has a quality that could only come from your soul.

I agree Doug, there is a beauty and depth that the heart responds to from Heather's words.

Yes - I can confirm this how the 2019 retreat officially completed and that it feels like the unfolding will bring a glorious unfolding to all participants.

I have discovered though Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon that living a ‘better life is not it. It really doesn’t work and we only have to look around to see the dissatisfaction with life that many people are experiencing. I have discovered for myself that there is such a richness to life, it has become less complicated that there is a core within us all that is our soul and when we re align to our soul we can feel it is the everything we have always wanted.

25/3/2019 10:59:13 am

To know to the bone that a better life is not it has been such an utter blessing. We can spend a lifetime chasing our tails and feeling like we have never arrived. Each day that now has purpose and a willingness to evolve has meant life simply means getting deeper in awareness and love. You can't actually get better (pun intended)!

I love the simplicity with which you have expressed so much. To be reintroduced to living in connection to my Soul by Serge Benhayon, has been such a precious gift, as I have discovered how hard it had been to live in disconnection to it, and in contrast, how beautifully simple it is when I breathe, live, walk and talk with it in every moment

Karin

20/3/2019 11:34:32 am

Forever chasing the better life kept me from knowing the beauty I already am. Walking this different way is introduced, in a really practical way, through the retreats. Yes, I may alternative between the two but I know which one is true that I'm ultimately coming back to.

Jonathan Stewart link

25/3/2019 04:03:33 am

Yes, so true Karin that chasing the better life is a distraction away from our Soul where the best life of all resides.

What a beautiful summary of the All; the retreat, your life and what Serge has and is continuously bringing to us all.

20/3/2019 02:48:16 pm

So true that the retreat starts the day after the Retreat.

Every 24 hours can be a retreat if we are open to deepening our awareness and our wisdom and living and expressing what we have connected to.

Viktoria

20/3/2019 09:59:47 pm

Absolutely, once you connect to the level of love offered by your soul there is nothing his world can offer.

Rachel Murtagh link

22/3/2019 10:59:47 pm

True, Viktoria... all else is shown to be the imposter and impersonator that it is when the soul is truly connected to.

"there is a changing of batons from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is, purely by living from an inner way that re-imprints every aspect of life.' What you are talking about here is available to everyone, but the attraction of what ever our version of success is can be very addictive on every level. To consider a life full of purpose joy and love can disturb the status quo deeply.

25/3/2019 04:01:04 am

Disturbing in the fact that one does not need anything from another or the world to be complete as one is already complete.

21/3/2019 02:31:13 pm

Understanding and accepting that we are a "... Soul first and human being second.." brings a dimension and meaning to life that is far deeper and purposeful than being just a 'human being' for we are multi-dimensional.

Caroline Francis

An amazing testimony Heather. It simply confirms everything that Serge Benhayon stands and lives by. I cannot be no other than inspired by the depth of Serge Benhayon's livingness from soul.

21/3/2019 11:12:06 pm

The beauty of what is on offer when we retreat to deeply consider what is going on around us and within us, it is an opportunity to then be all we are in the world.

Gill Randall link

The is heaven sent Heather, “Soulful living offers us the richness of who you are within is all you have been searching for”. What more could we ever need?

To feel your embodiment of the Retreat offers a healing to everyone reading your words, Heather.

22/3/2019 04:54:16 pm

How beautiful Heather, thank you, including "from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is". I absolutely agree with this based on my own experiences with Universal Medicine and how I now am living with my soul each day. It is truly a beautiful way of life, and there is a richness to having a purpose greater than ourselves that feels so very natural, something I know I have dearly missed. What we seek in life in terms of ideals of success can never ever fill the void of returning to our true soulful selves. Once we return to soul we then take that into every part of life and everything has purpose. It’s absolutely gorgeous to live this way.

22/3/2019 10:57:17 pm

23/3/2019 01:17:19 am

This is really powerful to finish the Retreat knowing it is now the start of living our lives with focus knowing ourselves deeper within.

Vicky Cooke

14/4/2019 01:09:18 am

I agree Gill that is exactly what I could feel from Heather expressing this. Knowing that it is not the end but instead just the beginning of bringing what we feel, know and are connected with from within into the rest of our lives.

23/3/2019 07:56:04 am

This is very beautiful to read. I am discovering the 'richness within' and how, all that is sold as the pinnacle of life, without coming from this, is empty.

23/3/2019 10:11:34 am

I agree Heather once you have had the experience of living with your soul, even for a short time, there is no going back and nothing else comes close to matching it.

24/3/2019 01:48:34 am

'Soulful living offers no get rich quick programs, or find your perfect mate, or fix your weight problems forever, but instead says “the richness of who you are within is all you have been searching for”. Once upon a time I would have said that soulful living was impossible in a world that felt so hostile and hard and how on earth could I possibly access that richness when I felt like a useless nobody anyway?! But slowly over time, with the help of Universal Medicine what you are sharing here became a reality for me. Ultimately the only issue I understood I had was that I missed myself terribly in the disconnection I had chosen. In that disconnection I could not acknowledge that there was anything of worth within. However, being open to the potential of a richness within meant that I could start accessing it during those moments of chosen connection (Actually I had never really dismissed it out of hand, it had simply got tarnished with an overlay of emotional gunk and reaction and those voices that said I was of little worth). When I started accessing it, I could no longer deny it and in no longer denying it, each day began a continued exploration of what it felt like to feel connected until the scales tipped and the connected days were more than the disconnected ones. What I have discovered lies within is far richer than I could possibly have thought but at the same time was not unknown – I had felt it as a small child. Whilst I can acknowledge also that my days are not one long chain of soul connectedness, where I have got to is so far from where I began that I can now begin to entertain the concept of soul connectedness as a true reality and one that I am definitely heading towards.

25/3/2019 03:47:45 am

"What I have discovered lies within is far richer than I could possibly have thought but at the same time was not unknown " So true and I feel so blessed to have encountered Serge Benhayon and all that is associated with him to enable me to discover this within me and within others.

24/3/2019 08:42:43 am

What is being shown here is the taste of soulful living is worth more that the world has to offer.

Andrew Mooney

25/3/2019 11:39:26 am

Yes there is no amount of temporal success or wealth, recognition or reward that can match simply living with and from your soul.

24/3/2019 10:04:52 am

Heather what I can very strongly feel here is what you have written and expressed is something you know to the core and live. It's very powerful.

Christine Hogan link

24/3/2019 01:03:11 pm

Living, walking with and being with your soul feel like coming home - true settlement

25/3/2019 03:42:32 am

Having the focus of healing and purpose of living life to express “the richness of who you are within is all you have been searching for” is a paradigm shift to all other approaches to healing and living.

25/3/2019 11:38:24 am

When we live from the inside out rather than the usual outside in it does indeed change everything in life.

26/3/2019 01:50:38 pm

So inside out is in fact not the 'wrong way' but the 'right way' ... or should I say true way ✨ But in how we are with ourselves not how we wear our clothes! 🙃

26/3/2019 01:06:56 am

"living from an inner way that reimprints every aspect of life." The power of taking responsibility for our lives cannot be ignored.

26/3/2019 01:48:32 pm

I love this ... the fact that the ending of the retreat was in fact the beginning ✨

27/3/2019 02:32:13 am

We are brought up with the human perspective and temporal life as the all and the everything. To undo this conditioning and to consider that there is way more to than life than this, can take a while... but once connected to and felt, life opens up in a whole new way.

ARIANA RAY

"The work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine is unique in the world in that evolution through a soulful living way of being in everyday life is paramount." The degree of love and deep quality of life that living in this way brings is beautiful, I would not consider living any other way.

And what new foundations - a strength and settlement that we live each day with.

28/3/2019 08:53:41 pm

When our perception changes, we begin to see the world in a way that we would have never even imagined. Since attending the Vietnam Retreat this year I have come to realise how incredible my job is, and the opportunity I have to connect with so many people on daily basis. The satisfaction I have from doing my job goes far beyond the monetary rewards or recognition for a job well done. The teachings of this wise man are revolutionary and always and forever busting control and comfort in the most incredible ways.

1/4/2019 07:13:44 am

Here something very special is offered by you Heather confirming how Serge Benhayon is so different from anyone else promising to improve our lives or bring success. These promises are all one and the same, trying to make things better. But Serge Benhayon simply offers us that we already have inside what we need, no drive for anything but to reconnect back to what we know to be true.

1/4/2019 11:48:59 pm

I love and appreciate the fact that the day you leave a retreat or any other workshop presented by Serge Benhayon, is the day you begin to live what you have come to understand, and take it out into the world. So often in the past I did not look forward to the last day of a retreat as I wanted it to last forever, that was until I realised that by bringing all the presented wisdom into my life, the retreat was never going to end.

Stephanie Stevenson

3/4/2019 05:25:06 am

A profound and inspiring testimony Heather. I am in heart-felt agreement with every word you have written - the truth about Serge Benhayon and all he brings to humanity.

3/4/2019 10:23:14 pm

It feels to me as though there is an acceptance that as an individual you are a part of the universe not a bystander and by accepting this truth then there is the possibility of feeling and understanding that we are all part of the universe and that we all have a part to play however big or small that part may be.

Heather, what you share here is beyond beautiful, and is a taster of what is on offer with and through Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. I love how you have described this work as: "This is not just a game changer, but a walking away from the game of being a better person and having a better life." Our society is so focused on bettering things but does not consider that there is so much more than bettering for self.

4/4/2019 12:00:29 pm

With a true connection and experience of having lived what you share here in this blog, Heather, it is clear that one cannot truly write about such things unless one has experienced them. And your writing does come with an authority or knowing deep within of what is lived in your life and hence are not just pretty words to entice another. Thank you for your deeply inspiring sharing!

7/4/2019 01:27:25 pm

Soulful living may not lead to the traditional trappings of a successful life eg wealth, recognition, instead it leads to a life of inner-harmony in a world in turmoil.

Peta Lehane

7/4/2019 11:47:03 pm

Absolutely, Heather. There is no going back to a life without my Soul and every retreat I attend simply confirms and enriches my commitment to living more in full with it everyday. This naturally inspires me to not only treasure my reconnection with my Soul but also to truly feel it in all others. We are all One afterall. The vast wisdom and knowing that Serge shares is beholding of the all we are in truth....and to feel his joy, his love and his commitment to humanity is what inspires so many.

8/4/2019 01:45:29 pm

'...in fact there is no goal. Instead there is a changing of batons from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is, ...' This turns a life of constant betterment on its head.

I'd completely sold myself out to such a life. I could even say I was addicted to being better. No aspect of my life was exempt from the highs of 'success' and the lows of 'failure.' And I still catch myself in this. Like it can appear commendable to focus on being more loving, more caring, more dedicated. But there's no more about it. I'm either connected and expressing from love or I'm in betterment.

I'm realising betterment is actually quite ugly. It cannot but come with judgement (where am I on the arbitrary scale of success) and with this comparison (where am I in relation to others and vice versa) and even competition, jealousy or supremacy. So not something worth striving for afterall!

9/4/2019 01:10:52 pm

The strength in how and what you have expressed here cannot be denied. I love what you share about not having goals but instead changing your life through true purpose. There is mountains of difference between the two.

Dianne Trussell

11/4/2019 12:49:15 pm

Awesome Heather! You're absolutely spot-on that 'retreat' within is not a retreat in the oft-used sense of withdrawing oneself from life, escaping or being unavailable. I feel its true meaning too - and a steady, deep sense of purpose, settlement and commitment to life that moves me for the benefit of all.

Matilda Bathurst

18/6/2019 01:58:11 am

There is something so exquisite, simple and humble about allowing ourselves to be moved 'for the benefit of all'. This opens up the grandness and purpose of life.

Jennifer Smith

13/4/2019 02:43:58 pm

Very beautiful sharing Heather. As you say no get rich scheme and nothing fixable overnight. In fact there is nothing to fix but everything to re-connect with within ourselves. The richness of an unfolding life and love is worth every moment.

15/4/2019 12:22:48 pm

"there is a changing of batons from a life fuelled by seeking of success, to a life filled with so much purpose, joy and love that it redefines what success is, purely by living from an inner way that reimprints every aspect of life." The state of the world is an indictment of 'a life fuelled by success' and hence it is definitely time to change 'batons' to one that is Soulful.

15/4/2019 11:15:42 pm

I agree with you Heather there is nothing out there that matches the work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. I was with a group of financiers recently and they were stating that there are not enough skilled or qualified people who want to work in the employment market. No one seems to want to work any more people are just checking out on life and drifting through it not wanting to take any sort of responsibility. I have found that Universal Medicine actually supports people to take an active part in life and to be self-responsible and when we do this life becomes worth living again.

24/4/2019 08:39:55 pm

The purpose of a retreat is to build a foundation so that when you return to your everyday life you are equipped to deal with what's ahead. It is not to please you there and then, it is not to make you feel blissful or like life is rosy and pink. If that occurs during a retreat, we will be completely smashed when we return to everyday life.

8/6/2019 09:09:57 pm

Better life is not the goal, it is not about having millions in your bank account and sitting on a beach somewhere drinking a cocktail or nice juice. The growth and betterment offered by this way of life far outreach what our human brain is dictated by what's around us. The bliss we all strive for does not measure up to the joy of your heart when you connect to life in this way, the success of the forever achiever does not measure up to the settlement in being content with your life and the appreciation that pours out from the smallest detail and divine communication you become aware of. Life is richer beyond measure, because our physical realm has no measure for the majesty this way of living offers.

9/6/2019 09:02:59 am

"Once you have lived with the connection to your Soul .... there is no going back to a life without it." I totally agree, Heather, once you have made this connection the world and life becomes truly enhancing.

Leigh Matson

13/6/2019 10:15:30 pm

That last part is bolded for a reason! There's no going back when you know there's a life outside of the depressing 'SSDD' - 'Same stuff, different day'. The misery, struggle and drama of what has been accepted as 'human life'.

15/6/2019 12:37:16 pm

I love this especially 'Universal Medicine stands tall in its resolution that living from the truest sense of who you are'. Also I feel just how much more there is for me to connect with my Soul in everyday life all of the time 'had breakfast with it, walked with it, worked with it, and loved with it, there is no going back to a life without it.' ✨

18/6/2019 01:53:13 am

Thank you Heather. 'There is no going back to a life without it'. The thought of trying to pretend again that we are not soul-full is so ridiculous and abhorrent. So there we go... walking, learning and loving onwards as students of soulfullness endlessly supported by Universal Medicine.

Suzanne Anderssen

23/6/2019 04:45:41 am

What a simple and clear way of describing what it looks like to live with your soul. Some things sound too good to be true, but this sounds too good to not have!

8/9/2019 07:54:07 am

The meaning of life as shared by Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon is far more enriching, joy-full and amazing than either not having a clue or "born, pay taxes, die".

11/9/2019 12:36:55 pm

I love the absoluteness that you have written with here. There is no doubt. And the reader can tell what you write is from a livingness, your experience and what you know to be true. Very cool and very inspiring asking all to be who we truly are and to be with life in a different way.

Kate Burns

15/9/2019 01:24:18 pm

Beyond game changing. Walking away from the game, from the self driven lineal seeking of a better life that narrows and ensnares. Stepping out of the prison walls and founding a life of purpose lived with and from soul. Magnificent piece of lived writing Heather. Very powerful. Thank you.
