A Journey Through The Presence Process with Michael Brown

October 12, 13, & 14, 2007 - Dallas, Texas
About The Talk & Workshop

Drawing from personal experience, humorous insight, and heartfelt wisdom, Michael Brown takes us on a profound journey that lucidly retraces the entry of our awareness into the world of phenomenon. In a grounded and practical way, he then clearly reveals the roadmap for the anchoring of present moment awareness into the realm of time. By empowering us to understand the very crucial roles that must now be played by our physical, mental, and emotional bodies, Michael awakens us to the steps that we must take individually to collectively deliver our species into the inspired state of Being that he calls ?The Vehicle?. His uplifting perspective on ?the meaning of human life? elevates the idea of service to a new dimension and awakens our sense of purpose to its grandest potential. This powerful experience is as self-contained as it is a springboard for anyone intending to enter The Presence Process.

Praise For The Presence Process

?I cannot possibly write enough or describe fully this process to you. If there is a book to read, it is this one. It is a guide on how to live consciously and stop reacting from unconscious wounds. It is personal liberation and personal acceptance. ?In the end, our validation of ourselves has to be sufficient.? We no longer have to ?do?, we can ?be?. I asked for a way to ?just be?, and I received a step by step guide illuminated with the wisdom to recognize it when I arrive. Thank you Great Spirit and thank you Mr. Brown?my cup is overflowing.?

About Michael

Until 1989 South African-born Michael Brown was living what he called ?a blissfully unconscious life? as a music journalist. He then developed an acutely painful neurological condition called Horton?s Syndrome. After four years of suffering through conventional medical approaches he embarked on a quest to heal his experience. In 1993 this intention unfolded into a nine-year odyssey that took him beyond the borders of his home country. In San Francisco he studied Swedish Massage and Reiki Therapy. In the Arizona Desert he studied Breathwork, Shamanism and trained for four years as a Fire Chief in the Native American Peyote Church. He also crossed the border to Mexico and participated in ceremonies with the Huichol Indians.

As Michael?s quest to find relief unfolded, he began entering ?present moment awareness?; a paradigm of heightened consciousness that appeared to be running parallel to the conventional and mundane world experience. He discovered that his repeated entry into this enlivened state of Being, which he accomplished through ceremonial practice and conscious breathing, resulted in a decrease of his own painful condition to the point that it subsided completely.

In the late 90s Michael began to chart a methodical pathway into present moment awareness with intent to develop a practical procedure that anyone, anywhere, could follow to initiate this experience for themselves. This procedure became known as The Presence Process. In 2002 Michael returned to South Africa and invited others to experience this inner journey. He discovered that as others embraced present moment awareness they too automatically experienced release from physical, mental, and emotional discomfort, including psychological disorders and addictions. To make this journey accessible to everyone Michael wrote The Presence Process: A Healing Journey Into Present Moment Awareness.

Michael Brown continues to live in Johannesburg, South Africa, where he shares his knowledge through personal facilitation. By means of this book, his healing contribution is available for all. Michael will be traveling extensively to speak and teach about The Presence Process.

3. RADIO ADYASHANTI?Listener Instructions?Arrive Early

1. Please relax, settle in, and enjoy the pre-show music, which will begin at 5:00pm.

http://www.adyashanti.org/cafedharma/index.php?file=radio

* You DO NOT need to pre-register.
* Radio Adyashanti is FREE!

3. At the time of broadcast, the radio show player will appear on your computer screen, and the center photo will change to one that says ?On the Air.?
4. The radio player takes about 30 seconds to load up, so if you don't hear anything right away, just wait and the sound will come on. You don't need to do anything. Just be still and know. :o)
5. During the program you may experience short periods of silence. This is a normal process called buffering. This happens when your computer accesses the broadcast, stores it in computer memory, and then delivers it to you.

DO NOT click on the radio volume or mute buttons during this time! Doing so will start the process all over again and may produce a very long gap of silence. Just wait, and the program will continue where it left off.

4. RADIO ADYASHANTI?Caller Instructions

1. If you would like to call and speak with Adyashanti, please take time between now and the scheduled broadcast to reflect on and clarify the nature of your inquiry. Many people find that this process of internal clarification resolves their question directly without the need to speak with Adyashanti.
2. As the program begins, if you still have a desire to speak with Adyashanti, please know that the clearer your question or inquiry, the deeper and more direct your dialogue can be?both for you and for those listening.
3. At the beginning of the scheduled program, Adyashanti will offer an opening talk and then invite listeners to call in. We will not be answering calls before that time.
* If you live in the US or Canada, call 1-800-997-7182.
* If you live OUTSIDE the US or Canada, call 408-938-0476.

We expect that Adyashanti will speak with 3?5 callers during the show.
4. If you get a busy signal, it probably means that all the slots are filled. You are welcome to try again during a future program. Or, if you would like to email a question for an upcoming program, send it to radio@adyashanti.org. Please limit your question to 2 or 3 sentences.
5. If you call and get an answer, please turn off the volume on your computer as this will assist in communicating with you. You will be asked the nature of your question and where you are calling from. Then, you will be placed on hold and you will hear the program through your phone line. (You may be on hold for up to 45 minutes.)
6. Relax and enjoy the satsang!

?To try to get beyond yourself is the ultimate act of self-obsession. If you're going to do anything, put your attention on what's already free. Your mind would say, Well, where is that? I would say, It's the awareness that you're using right now to look, to listen, that awareness itself. It's already free. Just abide in what's already free.? ? Adyashanti
