From Spiritual Addiction to Simple Truth

by Bina Pattel, Aged 51, London, UK

My whole life I have been searching for Truth. I always knew my life and the whole world just made no sense.

Here is a laser update…

20’s I got into the spiritual stuff as religion was not for me. I was brought up Hindu, done a bit of Buddhist, Christianity, Catholic Church going and even visited monasteries. It was to find some kind of inner peace to my awful life that I had created.

30’s – I lived a wreckless life, trashing my body through food and alcohol and making lots of money and spending it faster than it came in.

Early 40’s – Still doing the spiritual new age stuff but with serious spending. I sold my house to pay for a £30,000 life mastery course and many other spiritual pursuits including another course that cost £35,000. My goal was to get the certificate at the end and then move on to another workshop or course that was going to “heal me and then others”.

It did NOT work.

I became so addicted to the new age therapies, spiritual books, workshops and courses around the world, that I sold all my assets including our 2 properties to fund this expensive habit. My drive to better myself and help/save others took such a hold on me that I just could not Stop.

Nothing was working.

My body was a mess. I was completely exhausted and numb. 

Nothing made sense.

2005 – a friend sent me information about Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. I went to a workshop and I did Not like this man – why? He spoke Truth and he made sense. His teachings in one morning showed me clearly my life was upside down.

So here was an ordinary man, not special with no followers or anything like that, talking sense and everything he said was like a reminder. I recognised that deep inside me I know this stuff and I was just re-connecting back to this wisdom.

I was still searching for Truth but at this point not trusting, as to me it was just another workshop or course.

Anyway, in October 2005, I went to a one day workshop and if what Serge Benhayon was saying was right, then it meant I was living a lie. I could Not accept that, so I walked away and convinced myself this was just more confusing spiritual nonsense.

I found a solution – I ignored him for 6 months, but deep inside me there was a constant pull to go back and do some courses and workshops. The feeling got stronger so I just went with what I felt was Truth.

I recall saying to Serge BenhayonThis is real, I can feel it”. This quote has stayed with me since.

What was different about Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine from the start was that I was never “sold” anything. This was completely the opposite to every spiritual workshop and course I had attended.

What I mean is that there was absolutely no promotion about the next course or any other Universal Medicine event. I also noticed that they were not advertising.

I was shown how to connect to me and my body and this way I can check out anyone and anything by feeling the Truth. Not ignoring my feelings allowed me to build and develop Trust with me and then with others.

So here was a man showing me how to check him out and everyone else. I had never ever come across anyone so open and giving me the tools to discern what was Truth and what was Not Truth.

Again I knew that this was already inside me but I needed a reminder of how to connect back. Its like I had forgotten. This confirmed to me that I too had the power and Serge was simply reflecting to me what was True inside me. I felt inspired for the first time in my life.

This was real. This made sense.

2006 – 2012 – I was truly inspired by the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine as they clearly reflect what is true in me.

Here is a very brief summary of my life today –

I do Not drink alcohol anymore to numb my pain.
I do Not eat sugar or have cravings – I was addicted to chocolate.
I do Not swear anymore.
I do Not want to have plastic surgery to fix my looks.
I do Not have acne all over my face – which I had for 25 years.
I do Not have exhaustion in my body.
I do Not have a sleep issue.

I am Not overweight anymore.
I am Not depressed anymore.
I am Not driven and I do not multi-task anymore.
I am Not checked out and numb.
I am Not attached anymore to my job title.
I am Not irresponsible with money anymore.

I no longer feel empty or miserable.
I no longer deny what I Know is Truth.
I stand by my Truth.
I Love Living and I Love my life.
I take Full Responsibility for All my choices
.
I am Truly Content with my Life.
I am no longer searching for Truth.

A summary of what I have learnt so far…

I have learnt about Self Love.
I have learnt about True Responsibility.
I have learnt about True Appreciation.
I have learnt about True Commitment.
I have learnt about speaking my Truth and not holding back.
I have learnt how to Trust and Express my feelings.
I have learnt how to make my life Simple.
I have learnt how to connect to my True essence and develop that connection.
I have learnt how to develop and build a true relationship with myself.
I have learnt how to Trust and Accept others regardless of their stuff.
I have learnt Truth about illness and disease and where it comes from.
I have learnt that I am enough and I do not have to do anything.
I have learnt how to Be me, the real me.
I have learnt how to care for myself deeply.
I have learnt the true meaning of the word LOVE.

Today, I choose to be a student of my inner heart and my Absolute Commitment is to Self Love first and then share with others, only what I know is True and works for me.

These teachings have inspired me so much that I use them in my work to support others to not give up and present another way of Living which is simple, practical, truly works and makes sense.

The sheer volume of positive feedback I have is a testimony that my Livingness based on the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine does work and has reached many people around the world. Fact.

To be gluten, dairy and sugar free without going on any diet and not having cravings is a revelation in itself. All my life I had a major self image issue about my looks and body shape.

I am 51 and I feel Amazing. My body feels lighter and younger inside and out. I can actually see my beauty and it’s there Everyday.

My husband said to me after 26 years that he feels I am real and it has inspired him to become deeply honest and real.

I have an Amazing Simple life that truly works.

This is what I call Absolute True Truth.

There is nothing out there I need as I KNOW – it is ALL inside me.

I realise now that ultimately everything that was and is delivered by Serge, I already know.

Enough said

In my opinion

Serge Benhayon is Pukka.
In my world Pukka means the Real thing.

I have lots more to share about my medical history, childhood, family, marriage, work and more.
So there will be more blogs.

Over and out for now…

  1. Serge Benhayon presents from a space that holds everyone equally. My body knew instantly that what this man was sharing was the truth, not by the words but the quality of love that felt deeply touching. No selling or promoting, just a clear delivering of a living way that makes complete sense.

  2. This blog was written when I was 51. I am now 57.
    So what has changed – well I have continued to deepen and apply everything that I have learned from Serge Benhayon – an incredible teacher and master of human life.

    Things no longer bother me like they used to and I have a deep settlement inside me that holds me steady.
    The ra ra and chasing the dream or other distractions are simply not there anymore.

    I know what the meaning of true purpose is and I am known for “getting on with it”
    I walk the talk and that means I live what I express – nothing more and nothing less

    Holding back when it comes to truth is not negotiable in my world. I just say it as it is and I don’t actually know how to hold back if I feel to say something and it does not matter who it is.

    Being practical and simple is how I live my life.
    I like the no nonsense style that I now have which is real and very relatable to so many.
    I know beyond any doubt that I have such an incredible life today because of Serge Benhayon.

    Life was never meant to be a struggle and to have so much joy every single day was something I never thought was possible.

    To feel and look so much younger
    To have my fitness level at this age
    To study and accomplish so much in my 50s
    To write 170 articles on line
    To have 22 books ready to publish
    And more…

    My deep heartfelt Appreciation for Serge Benhayon continues daily by Living the teachings that he has presented over the past 14 years.

  3. The spiritual New Age makes lots of promises, if offers many things, lots of modalities, practitioners, speakers, books, courses – the list goes on and on. I know for me it took me no where, after decades I realised there was nothing substantial to it because I was possibly worse than when I started… and I had spent heaps of money and got no where apart from temporary relief. As soon as I did my first course with Universal Medicine I noticed something very different, in both Serge and the way he presents (very gentle, loving and respectful), and also the quality of the energy in the healing modalities, like nothing I had felt before, very pure and I felt a stillness. What Serge offers really does work and it’s very self empowering because we all equally have the same love and truth within ourselves, we may just need the support to reconnect to it.

  4. How can anyone possibly argue with a person who teaches people to discern for themselves? This is the most liberating, or frustrating, if we are so used to being told what is right/wrong, and going along with it with no question and don’t like responsibility.

    1. Serge definitely doesn’t allow people to give their power away, I found this challenging at first because I was used to being told what to do and with Universal Medicine I was being asked to feel things for myself. It has been very self empowering for me to experience this.

  5. I am staggered to hear you sold your house in pursuit of the ‘thing’ that would be your answer but it goes to show just how desperate we are to ease the unsettlement we feel in our bodies. It is all consuming and leads to irrational decision making. What I love about what you share is that Universal Medicine and the Ageless Wisdom is so much simpler!!! Live simply, return to who you are and live in honour of that relationship within the greater whole we are all from.

  6. Thanks Bina, reading your blog again today I was able to relate to your list of how you now feel after applying the work of Serge Benhayon to your life…. wow, there is much for me to reflect upon and appreciate as well. Feeling amazing actually is quite natural because we are simply returning to our true selves, even though it’s definitely not society’s current “normal”.

  7. Absolutely I concur with all you have shared Bina, may I add that so many students have a life that has been turned up-side-down or probably better said in Truth, the True-way-up so everything is understood when the student is ready, so no imposition by anyone.

  8. We can all make changes in our lives, diets, exercise, jobs and moving homes – it can all look like things are changing but if the root is not sought and changed, then nothing can truly be different.

    1. So true, we can change everything on the outside but if we do not address why we have those behaviours in the first place, then we will forever be finding other coping mechanisms rather than addressing the root cause where true freedom from the tension is found.

      1. Mmm we can fool ourselves and think that because we no longer live with our parents (for example) we have dealt with childhood hurts, we have our own family to take care of now (hypothetically) and so our focus is there, we repress all of the things which we felt hurt by, the things which we may be resentful about and live our lives. But what happens if we don’t really deal with things? Is it possible that all of those undealt with emotions are still running in the background, that’s why whenever we spend a day or two or a few more with our parents the arguments, disagreements and roll of the eyes is unavoidable? Is it possible that all of that is transferred into our parenting styles and that in the pursuit to be better or different to our parents we are actually hindering our children? So many questions, so much for us to understand and reflect on in our lives.

  9. “So here was a man showing me how to check him out and everyone else. I had never ever come across anyone so open and giving me the tools to discern what was Truth and what was Not Truth.” Serge Benhayon’s openness, willingness to share and expression of love is off the Richter Scale, it knows no bounds

    1. To be able to discern energy is the most important life lesson a person can receive. Many of us underestimate the importance of this, perhaps because we are not aware of the impact it has, but as soon as we start to see it it becomes such a crucial part of our every day.

      1. Discerning energy, the source of energy, what is running something, someone is such an important life lesson, and tool for our everyday lives.

  10. I also had a brief dabble with some spiritual new age modalities. There was always the feeling that you weren’t there yet and had to go on to the next course. This has never been the case with Universal Medicine. Each session or workshop empowers us with the understanding that we are all able to evolve through our inner connection, which guides our movements and choices – the way we live.

  11. Bina your addiction to new age courses sounds like it led on an arduous merry-go-round that only served to drain your bank accounts and lead your body into exhaustion.

    1. I found it powerful that Bina shared about selling her house to pay for a course. Although as an outsider this sounds like insanity it shows just how empty and addicted the spiritual new age can leave you feeling.

  12. ‘if what Serge Benhayon was saying was right, then it meant I was living a lie. I could Not accept that, so I walked away and convinced myself this was just more confusing spiritual nonsense.’ And even feeling you had been living a lie could not stop you and so many others and that is a joy to behold, the truth will always be the truth.

  13. How confused we get when we allow our way-ward spirit to take control we end up in a distracted mess with a looking looking looking always for more and as you have shared usually penny-less and depleted energetically and physically.
    Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon on the other-hand energetically and there-fore we also get the physical benefits that support our true wealth and well-being as we develop our own Livingness.

  14. I had this constant drive to improve my life, to better myself as life constantly felt a struggle. This drive had me trying all sort of new agey things, which to my discovery only ever buried my issues deeper to resurface at a later point. The day I met Serge Benhayon, was the day my searching ‘out there’, ceased as my body could feel the truth of all he presented and lived. Serge Benhayon walks his talk.

    1. The desire to improve our life, our relationship, ourselves, is what keeps many on the new age hamster wheel going round and round, but with nothing truly changing.

  15. It’s a bit remarkable that no one that I know of has made a proper news coverage of what Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine presents and the effect it has had on people, the changes many have made in their life is remarkable. I know of people that have turned around life long conditions just by applying simple things presented by Universal Medicine which have opened up so much for them, saving them lots of suffering and also saving society lots of money.

  16. I too knew after my first workshop with Serge Benhayon what would now happen in my life if I choose the feel the truth. Something that I tried desperately to ‘bring into’ the life I had created, however the truth that I knew was that the life I had created needed to be completely deconstructed, for the truth I felt to be lived. It took some time, but the absolute feeling in my body eventually guided me to accept, and begin the deconstruction and rebuilding. Both a humbling and extremely powerful experience.

    1. Powerfully expressed, I too felt the pull to truth which involved deconstructing the life I had built up and it has been a journey, but now am feeling the steadiness of being supported in living the truth I can feel in my body.

  17. Looking at the list of what you have learnt makes me see how we live what we are not, and we do not live what we are and call that a life. And we say we are seeking truth, but the hold of comfort often outweighs the unknown territory of Livingness so we cruise on. I know it is not about being convinced or converted, but something very special happens when we are met by a true reflection in a body of Love.

  18. Know the feeling, Bina ‘I found a solution – I ignored him for 6 months, but deep inside me there was a constant pull to go back and do some courses and workshops.’ I even got annoyed that there was no advertising, no promoting of the next course and workshop…I mean, c’mon! It meant I actually had to take responsibility for finding out what the next course or workshop was and when it was taking place. Didn’t like it one bit. Until I actually started taking responsibility for my choices – with that came the understanding that this taking responsibility is in all areas of life including one so seeming inconsequential as the next course or workshop.

    1. There is no organisation yet that I have come across that is not interested in marketing and advertising their services to promote their business. Serge Benhayon is turning things upside down in the way he conducts his life and business life – BOTH of which for the record are completely Transparent.

      I realise now that my initial reaction and aversion to this man was because I had Absolute Truth in my face and the lie I was living would be exposed if I dared to continue so I took the easy option, ran for the hills and disappeared battling in my head for 6 months.

      THANK YOU GOD for getting me back to Serge Benhayon as my life has transformed beyond any dream, vision or expectation. No longer do I need to dream, wish for a holiday to check out and self medicate or take time out to reward myself. Gone are those wasted days and in are the Glory days full of joy.

      There is not an ounce of misery or agony in my life and I know what I am here to do and not do.
      Finally, I use Universal Medicine as a role model and template for my own business and that in itself speaks volumes.

      1. What a blessing it is to finally in life have a divine connection and be able to say the words without the usual illusion of being lesser than but feeling the equality with a deep Humble-Appreciative-Ness of our Godly essences so Thank You God and Serge Benhayon for sharing the fore-ever deepening Loving Truth.

    2. The fact of no advertising and that one has to take responsibility for oneself, the date of the next course is testament to the fact that there is absolutely no coercion or recruiting by Universal Medicine or Serge Benhayon.

      1. This is a great point you make Jonathan because our world today is full of marketing. We have solutions and strategies to get people buying what we are selling in our business.
        I get non stop emails and then phone calls on top to book the seat for the next seminar or presentation with bigwigs that they call keynote speakers in their chosen field.

        I’ve done a bit of investigation and found out it is a private organisation that run these big seminars on behalf of the government and it really is about making money. The prices are way too high and you got this ‘early bird’ stuff going on. To me these are signs that it is about profits before people.

        Totally opposite to how Universal Medicine operates. They are most certainly about growing people and it is people before profits. I have taken this to my own company and have to say it feels very true to run a business in this way. Not a single second is wasted on marketing our business or where the next dollar is going to come from.

      2. So True Jonathan, Truth find those who are ready without all the usual hype so Serge Benhayon is a living testament to the power of living with Love as being Loving in all we do is reward enough and as it has been said our cup runneth over.

  19. It’s such an awesome blog, thank you Bina. You are so open and that’s why it’s such a healing read because of the realities you have shared of life before and after the work of Serge Benhayon. There are so many things that stand out about Serge including the deep empowerment he offers people, to feel and decide the truth for themselves, and not selling anything, no self promotion, and not needing anything from attendees.

  20. Everyone knows the truth. It is only a few who are prepared to own that they know and take responsibility for having brought so deeply into the lie.

  21. What is so very inspirational about what you share Bina is that even though on first meeting Serge Benhayon, you “did not like this man” and then despite ignoring him for six months you finally answered the call of truth. And how wonderful that you did as the world desperately needs more people like you, people who are not afraid to stand up and stand out wherever truth is being called for.

    1. Thanks Ingrid for your appreciation.
      Well there is more – I never told the world WHY I did not like this man called Serge Benhayon on first meeting?
      I was so busy into comparison and coming from a trip in the Bahamas with a spiritual rock star guru on a new age expensive, intensive mastery course, I was disappointed. There was a man so ordinary and just nothing fancy, not even his venue or his shoes. I thought this cannot be the real deal yet my body was pulling me so much and this internal fight was going on inside me.

      You are right I did hear the call for Truth and answered it by attending a presentation 6 months later and have never looked back. The rest is history as they say, but a history well worth sharing and that is my duty to God and humanity. I was never given this incredible life to sit on the fence and not share everything that I am now aware of. So far doing a grand job of expressing.

      You are also right Ingrid when you say I am “not afraid to stand up and stand out wherever Truth is being called for.”
      As a radar for Truth, absolutely nothing comes in my way and I am not bothered if that means I get fired or lose out on something spectacular because I chose the Truth above anything this world can offer me.
      I wonder how many people could say that and mean it.

      1. Thank you so much for your awesome reply to my comment, Bina. There is definitely another wonderful blog in what you have shared. As I was reading about sitting on the fence I realised that I have done way too much fence sitting and it has been very painful in many ways. I have finally made the choice to get off and get moving, in truth, and you have provided so much inspiration to stay off it; forever!

  22. Bina I love how you have shared that the older you get, the younger you feel! This is about embracing aging gracefully and also connecting deeply with yourself and life.

    1. This really is true. I am getting older but yet I look and feel younger.
      Ageing gracefully were words out there BSB – Before Serge Benhayon

      Only yesterday I was thinking how amazing it will be to celebrate my 60th birthday in a few years time.
      The dread of my dress size, wrinkles and what to wear is no where on my radar now.

      I am certain without any doubt that the teachings of Serge Benhayon, which are the absolute Truth if lived, can give us all a graceful ageing process. So many including my husband look and feel amazing in their 50s and 60s and beyond.

      The other thing is my list of claims in this blog is huge now and well deserving of a book.
      As I came up with the phrase BSB and ASB that is probably the best title, so I will add it on my list of books to write and complete before I pop off. No signs of that yet so there is plenty of time to get on with it.

  23. This one is a beauty: “I have learnt how to make my life Simple.” – something I am learning and working on all of the time. With complications we lose the joy in life but when we bring it back to simplicity then all falls into place and we connect back with the natural rhythm of things.

    1. Great you like the Simple bit Henrietta.
      I LIVE SIMPLE so it made sense to call my company Simple Living as all I have to do is present what I know and live.
      The head stuff is way too complicated and it gets messy and my body feels hard. I see no point going there and spend little time as I can in my head.

      A classic example would be writing comments online. Having done over 6000 now, I never think or plan or write notes or anything like that. I just read what I am responding to, be it the blog or a comment like yours and start typing. No thinking, no head engaging needed. I just go and it is all there like a package download and as long as I stay with it then it completes. The thing I love is the quality of expressing in this way as it rarely has a mistake and it is just perfect without being perfect. I trust you get what I mean.

      You can feel when it is complete and then you move on and say ‘whats next?’ Simple

  24. Love what you have shared here Bina – your honesty and your openness are very refreshing! Thank you!
    You also shared that “What was different about Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine from the start was that I was never “sold” anything. This was completely the opposite to every spiritual workshop and course I had attended.” – this is so True! Serge does not need to market or advertise as people are drawn to the genuine nature of what he presents, which essentially is nothing new, but a deep reminder of the true old ways of living that we all have a distant memory of, but cannot always grasp and bring into lived presence. With Serge you get to re-develop a relationship with this Ageless Wisdom that lies within us all, and little bit by little bit we can bring this back to an everyday expression. And this is a gift to ourselves beyond words.

  25. Reading your comment here Jane and re-reading this blog which tells you about my searching days I just realised how many are caught up in this seeking stuff and spending heaps of money and wasting time if you ask me. I have walked that road and I know for a fact that it leads to nothing but further illusion.

    Turning back was not a one day thing. It was something I had to feel and without the reflection of Serge Benhayon it would not be possible.

    I was at dinner recently talking about BSB and ASB – life before and after Serge Benhayon.
    My life was such a mess and then add to that my husband who was morbidly obese, we were both medical statistics. So much has changed for both of us and to live a life today that is deeply content speaks volumes. There is absolutely nothing I want or need that is out there now.

  26. When I dabbled in the spiritual new age and eastern complementary therapies I noticed no-one was truly making any progress. Some physical ailments may shift, there was a lot of crying, screaming, or bliss around but in the end, the real issues people worked with did not seem to shift. Since I have been with Universal Medicine I have seen major and continuous shifts in all who commit themselves to it. The difference is vast and the choice therefor, exactly, a no brainer.

  27. The miracle line for me in this blog is “I no longer feel empty or miserable”. Surely there are millions in the world today who would love to be able to say that sentence…? What is great is it is available to anyone who chooses to follow their inner wisdom with the support of Universal Medicine.

    1. And 5 years later Heather that statement stands. Empty and miserable are not even on my radar.
      Deeply content and alive are. ‘Getting on with it’ is probably the best way to describe me today – thanks to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

      I realise the world is in such a mess. I also realise I have a lot of awareness now and I have a grand job to do on earth and I have the skills and know what to do and not do. The great thing is I am forever learning so if things go wrong it is not a big deal.

  28. The title is interesting as spiritual addiction is common and when you understand the energetics behind it, it makes sense. It involves a constant seeking outside of yourself. Because what we are seeking lies within, if we’re searching outside and given crumbs of what looks like truth, addiction sets in as we are wanting more and more of those crumbs. But they can never fulfil us as they are not the real deal.

    1. You are so right Nikki and thats the hook – looking outside of ourself when its all inside and what we need is the recipe to connect to our inner most and this is what we get from Serge Benhayon on day one.

      When I think about it, this man really is incredible. I have been watching him and clocking how he walks, talks and engages with people. He is so consistent and so deeply caring and the time he gives everyone is beyond anything I have ever seen before.

      There is no organisation like Universal Medicine out there in the world that I know of. No advertising or marketing ever. They are not in it to get bums on seats and do special offers and deals to get you hooked. For me, this was so opposite to all the spiritual workshops and courses. What integrity and openness to run a company in this way. Super amazing and 12 years on they are still the same and growing fast.

  29. I also met Serge Benhayon in 2005 after participating in many, various ‘new age’ spiritual courses. What’s interesting is that when I met Serge I didn’t feel the need to carry on a search looking elsewhere for something I knew within but couldn’t explain. I had found without a shadow of a doubt what Serge Benhayon was presenting was the absolute and whole Truth.

    1. Well you are not the first Caroline to say this, there are so many of us saying that the searching stopped when we met Serge Benhayon.
      The proof is there as both of us have been around since 2005. This in itself speaks volumes.

      If it was new age spiritual stuff, I cannot imagine where I would be right now in my search for Truth.

  30. “I felt inspired for the first time in my life.” This is exactly how I felt during the first presentation by Serge Benhayon that I attended.

    1. Yes, what Serge Benhayon shared in the first workshop I attended back in 2005 made such sense, it was like, yes I know this is true at some level deep inside.

  31. Thank you Bina, this is a powerful testimony to the simplicity and truth Serge Benhayon presents, and that it’s equally accessible inside us all. The spiritual New Age does not present the truth, I know because I spent $1000’s on its merry-go-round only to come out the other end after decades in an even worse state, and with a severely damaged bank account. The people I met were good people, but what is shared and “sold” in the spiritual New Age is not it, I know because I finally have healed my past through the Universal Medicine therapies, and my life has changed profoundly – and not through bettering, changing or improving myself but by simply discarding all that is not truly me. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are indeed “pukka” – the real deal. At the end of the day the truth is in how we live and the quality of energy we live in.

    1. Thank you Melinda. When I read the $ sign I was just thinking about the thousands of pounds I have wasted on that spiritual merry go round, fooling and convincing myself it was working.
      I dread to think where I would have ended up today, had I not met Serge Benhayon.

      Anyone reading this blog may think this is way too many claims and how is it possible but if I was studied there is now enough evidence to confirm I am on it. By that, I mean I am LIVING the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and the changes are monumental to say the least.

      The biggest thing is there is no money wasted on nonsense now, like it was in the past.
      I have learned some very valuable lessons about money and long gone are those days of spending and having a disrespect for money.

  32. Wow Bina what a beautiful testimony of the Esoteric Modalities and the Ageless Wisdom. This is a great example of one person discovering truth and love, imagine the thousands of students worldwide that have transformed their lives as well since meeting Serge Benhayon and the powerful reflection this can offer others.

  33. What a wonderful blog Bina and a real inspiration to read again. I love your truthful sharing and am inspired by your amazing turn around after meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

    1. Yes this blog is a real inspiration Roslyn.
      I feel this is because it is almost 5 years old but the amazing turnaround and the long list of claims continues to expand. There has been no dropping the ball, time wasted, sitting on the fence or holding back. None of these are possible with my solid commitment to life.

      What has happened since writing this blog is I have committed even more deeply to just GET ON WITH IT and since then have really made some great changes that I know have not only supported me but many many others too.

      A real testimony to the work and teachings of Serge Benhayon.

      1. That really is testimony – we say we want evidence and time is a great marker. You are testament to the healing power of that return to who you are underneath the layers of who you are not.

  34. It is crazy how we create lives for ourselves that are so unhealthy and so complicated and then spend lots of money trying to make everything better. All we really have to do, as you have shown, is unpick everything we have loaded ourselves with even though it may be the accepted norm in our world. Taking out gluten and then dairy and alcohol and then sugar, as I felt I could, has had an amazing effect on the way I think, move and feel. It has created clarity and a lightness in my body and made me aware of other things that are not supporting a healthy and vibrant life but this is really just the tip of the iceberg and like you I so appreciate all the other changes that I have allowed that are bringing me to greater awareness and a more fulfilling life and the way this ripples out to others means that they often get inspired also.

  35. It is interesting the extent to which unsettlement in the body lead to patterns of addiction to try to counter it without really addressing its cause. It is only when the unsettlement ceases that the addictive pattern ceases as well.

    1. Great observation Eduardo that when unsettlement ceases, addictive patterns cease and the same applies to physical symptoms. Hence we need to treat the cause of an ‘unsettlement’ rather the symptom.

      1. This is great.

        It reminds me of gardening and seeing weeds cut down without being pulled out at the roots. They look like they are gone but a few sleeps later and the weeds are growing tall and strong again.

  36. Its beautiful to see how truth really does hold us all equally, because it is lived, felt and confirmed in one movement made. As they say truth will always set us free and also allows us to see the grander picture at play.

  37. I love hearing stories from people who have been around the block as fare as the “Spiritual New Age goes”. I love it because you are speaking from first hand lived experience.
    So many people just try and put Universal medicine in the same basket. I am so glad that you have set the record straight with you fascinating article. Also, its a miracle all the changes you have made.

    1. Thanks Sarah for this comment. I have made it my job to keep writing and keeping that record straight about Serge Benhayon. In fact, after publishing over 100 blogs it would be true to say that I am fearless when it comes to the Truth about Serge Benhayon.

      Nothing bothers me or disturbs me because I know I am doing my bit. I cannot stop others talking lies and nonsense about this man but I can keep writing and that keeps me steady.

      I also agree Sarah that first hand lived experience shared as this blog has done, does hold meaning and value to others reading.

      Putting Universal Medicine in the same basket as Spiritual New Age makes no sense to me as it is polar opposite. Universal Medicine is Absolute Truth and the Spiritual New Age is Total Illusion. I should know I did it for 25 years.

  38. Your early experiences Bina in the spiritual New Age and self-help genres just go to show we can be addicted to anything – and at an enormous cost on many levels. How clever the human spirit is in keeping us wide of the simple truth and a true life of the soul.

  39. This is so true Liane. It is as if the lies have settled into our body so deeply that they are hard to dislodge but as I have come to know, truth will eventually prevail and shake the lies free. A body that is free of lies is a much lighter body to walk through this life.

    1. In effect the lies become our convenient reality, the one that suits us even though it causes the misery of not being true to who we are. If I react to Universal Medicine and what is presented, it is not that it isn’t true. It is the attachment to the life of lies. If all that is presented is true, then I have to change my relationship with my partner, kids, colleagues and most importantly myself.

  40. Sometimes when we are so used to being sold lies (and willingly buying them), it can be hard to accept the truth when it stands right before us and reflects all that is within us.

  41. It’s always inspiring to listen and read what you have to say Bina. You are real and to me that’s truth, and therefore healing.

  42. Loved reading your blog Bina, Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have definitely opened my eyes and my heart to a wisdom that I already knew, I had just forgotten how to connect to it, I am forever grateful to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine for showing me what true love is, never making me feel lesser and inspiring me to be all of who I am.

  43. When we encounter Truth our body recognizes it immediately, no matter how much we were trashing our own body. Every part of our being says yes to it. That makes clear what happens when what we encounter is not true.

  44. Great sharing Bina, for myself I always knew there was something missing, something more, and although I didn’t go on a spiritual journey to find it, a friend invited me to attend a presentation by Serge Benhayon, and there through the presentation I got to feel what I was missing, the connection to the true me.

  45. Could it be painted any more starkly than from such personal experience Bina? That to seek outside of ourselves – what the entire new age movement is set up to do – is not the answer, and will never, ever ‘provide’ the answer, i.e. the actual love and rich livingness of it that we are seeking.
    The truth IS absolutely within us all, and to meet someone such as Serge Benhayon who does nought but confirm this through his own lived way and expression shows us all what’s possible by way of our own reflection in this world.
    Humanity deserves to be met with lived love and truth, and not those imposters who promise the paths of gold, but leave one ever-hanging (or in the extreme, seeking to suck others dry themselves in search of some relief…).

  46. Bina, truly love your openness and honesty, keeping it all real and saying it as it is. When we truly connect to ourselves we have all the answers within, we don’t need to look outside. We have to take responsibility for our choices and stay connected to truth and our purpose.

  47. It’s a big shock when we realise we are living a lie but an amazing revelation too. It’s clear to see that your willingness to see the truth has delivered you true joy and freedom.

  48. A great down to earth and clear article for everyone to read about how one person made a change that has inspired others. We can walk off into all types of endeavours as is highlighted here or we can simply choose responsibility, true responsibility which involves us rolling up our sleeves and truly having a look at how we are in the world. This is one thing I love about a Universal Medicine presentation, it’s always a reminder of what we already know and not held out to you in a you haven’t go type of way. This builds your confidence from day one and confirms to you many many things you have felt over the years. We always have an internal dialogue running and it’s great to be able to sense fact from fiction.

    1. I love what you say here Ray Karam about simply choosing TRUE RESPONSIBILITY and that involves rolling up our sleeves and that is exactly what I done.
      I cannot imagine not taking responsibility now as its my normal. Whilst I am not perfect in anyway, I do commit to making sure I do my bit on earth. Gone are the days of idle time wasting and in are the glory days of Getting on with it.

      There seems to be a lot of purpose these days in my life and I love that. I find it more and more difficult now to engage in stuff if I cannot feel the purpose. I am always saying what is the point of this and that if there is no purpose.

      1. The funny thing is is that all is pulled to purpose and true responsibility in the way we are describing. In other words we are naturally this way, it’s innate within us. The illusion is that we are needing to do something or needing to be something when in fact if we were to truly stop all would be revealed in that stop. We carry on as if we need to ‘work’ hard to get things done and really push at times when in fact the entire universe is pulling us all to purpose and responsibility. We can only resist this and hence the struggle or when you are in something that feels empty. If you arrive at any given point and have lost the feeling as to why you are there then you are out of flow, out of sync if you like with the ‘all’. There is a way to be that requires you to stop the do.

  49. Woah, I had no idea that spiritual courses could cost that much and that people would sell their houses to attend them. That is eye opening, it also shows that it takes people away from having a foundation and move outside of themselves.

    1. This is why it is important Kristy that we share what we have experienced in life as others may not be aware.
      As Eduardo has said in a previous comment the Spiritual is addiction and I have to agree.

      Selling houses was not even an option, it was a given. It was what had to be done as I was at some point going to transcend, earn heaps of money and save the world. Totally and utterly deluded.

      The crazy thing was I had plenty of customers wanting what I had to offer in terms of spiritual new age mumbo jumbo and they paid top dollar. I used to think I could sell sand to the arabs as I could literally sell anything. The truth is it is all about demand and supply. The demand was there, so I supplied.

      Thank God I came across this wise man Serge Benhayon. This is when the tides started turning and once I made a strong commitment, I have never looked back. That was 12 years ago and a claim today would be that I am a living role model of the teachings of Serge Benhayon. Not perfect.

  50. I love rereading this blog as it says it all in a real ‘cut to the chase’ kind of way. Well worth a read and then a reread every once in a while as I can so relate and I get to appreciate all over again just how far I have come from the spiritual destitute I was before I came across the presentations of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine who also inspired me to stop looking outside for what was already within me.

    1. Great Kathleen that you love re-reading this blog and coming back for a re-read.
      I have done that and it is very ‘cut to the chase’ as you say and also inspiring.

      Making claims like a shopping list as this blog does, speaks volumes. The reason it still feels alive to me right now is because what has been expressed is being lived. When that is the case a blog never dies or loses its sell by date. ADD to that a re-visit from the author to comment on some comments they feel to, then it continues to keep that fire burning. I trust this makes sense.

      1. This makes perfect sense Bina, as to truly be alive is to grow and expand and as I read in one of your earlier comments to another commentator this is your first blog and since then you have gone on to write 100 more blogs . . . now that is what I call keeping things alive!

  51. No certificate will ever ensure us quality and integrity. Nor will a particular course ensure us to be a true healer – only the quality of how we live what we have learned from any course, workshop or presentation we attend being integrated and brought alive with absolute integrity in the real world can do that.

  52. I agree Bina. ‘Absolute True Truth’ is what Serge Benhayon offers. The resistance I also initially felt was because it exposed how I was living a lie and rocked the comfort I was in. I too have experienced many New Age spiritual books and courses, but jumped from one to another, because there was no integrity on the part of the presenters. I became disappointed and eventually left each one. I have stayed with Universal Medicine for about 10 years now because it offers truth and Serge Benhayon is a role model of true energetic integrity like no other person I have ever met. An amazing world teacher who will one day be recognised as such.

    1. You mention Spiritual New Age books Sue and I had 4 floor to ceiling double length book shelves.
      I don’t think I ever read a book cover to cover. I got bored very quick and I was always in the book shops looking for more. I was addicted to buying books, reading a few lines like a quick fix and moving on.
      ADD to that the cd collections that were going to change my mindset and then the courses and workshops. It was never ending and very costly, not just to my purse but to my body.

      I knew very early on when I met Serge Benhayon that he really was the real deal and my search could now stop once and for all.

  53. I love the simplicity of truth, when things get complicated something is out. Your story Bina confirms there is no satisfying spiritual addiction…. our connection to truth will never be found outside of ourselves.

  54. Part of the trap of the religious path is that we think it becomes all about the search, and one becomes caught in the zealous drive that so typifies so many religious devotees. The truth is, however, that divinity and our own connection to divinity cannot ever be found by searching, but rather by a process of surrender. That process however is not based on faith, but on energetic discernment so that one first becomes aware of the quality of that to which they intend to surrender to.

  55. There is so much to appreciate in what you have shared Bina. The changes you have made are ginormous and equally ginormous as those who have committed to the work presented by Serge Benhayon. These blogs are so important for they allow us to stop and really really appreciate what exactly has been offered. Something that I can tell in your writing that you do in every moment, which is so inspiring. The most important thing here is that what has been offered is not something that has been offered to an exclusive group of people. It’s actually available to every single person if we simply make the choice to. This work is the real deal, Serge Benhayon is the real deal and you Miss Bina are the real deal.

  56. I could share a similar story here – of many years spent on ‘positive thinking’, popular psychology, self-help, ‘fix yourself’ type workshops, books and courses. My search was at least in part a way of escaping the way I felt about myself with a sort of ‘addiction to self-improvement’. It ended for me when I met Serge Benhayon, felt the truth he was living and sharing and knew it was true for me too. The desire to keep seeking stopped there for truth had found me and I had said yes.

  57. Spirituality is always associated with the word addiction in one way or another. It is part of the separated spirit’s DNA. That is one of the reasons why the spaciousness that Serge Benhayon holds stands in absolute contrast to addiction and can be so easily felt by anyone right away. We only learn the extent of our addictive trends when we find ourselves in a space that invites us to shift our movements.

    1. This is such a profound comment Eduardo and it makes sense as I now understand, know and can feel what space is.
      Serge Benhayon has a Beholding quality that is hard to express in words but you feel equal, the same and you also get to feel your own potential.

  58. The honesty in your sharing is inspiring Bina and also shows all of us, that no matter where we’ve been and what we’ve done, we can choose to come back – it takes honesty, dedication and commitment and if we’re willing it’s there for us to connect to and live, the answers are in us, if we choose to honour them.

  59. Wow, no doubt you prepared to do what you believed necessary to find truth Bina, ( I mistakenly wrote fund not find as I was writing that :)) Your commitment to truth is clearly felt, and when the calling is true how can we not be lead back to ourselves. Serge Benhayon is such a powerful reflection of that truth we hold within.

    1. You are so right Victoria – Serge Benhayon is such a powerful reflection of the truth in every way.
      But we are equally if we just keep choosing truth as the thread to weave our life, if you know what I mean.

      I now finally understand when people like you say ‘your commitment to truth is clearly felt’. Of course people feel all the time and it cannot be negated when you live a consistency that is unwavering.
      A classic example would be my work dress code. I have a formal way that I choose to dress and it has been the same for 6 years. Another one would be the care and attention I give my kitchen sink with such deep appreciation. Might sound a bit weird and whacky or even boring but it is this basic stuff that holds me steady with whatever life brings. On that note, I have come to realise I no longer need to make anything happen or go out there to get it. Simple do the same same stuff everyday and allow things to unfold and know there is a divine order and timing to everything.

      Finally, on the truth note, I have written well over a 100 blogs and thousands of comments and this is because of the constant inspiration that Serge Benhayon has given me.
      When it comes to Truth and Serge Benhayon, absolutely nothing will stop me expressing what I know is the TRUTH.

      1. This is so inspiring Bina, 100 blogs to date is very impressive . . .. you are correct, you simply never hold back from speaking Truth and everyone benefits from this whether they realise this at the time or not

  60. What a testimony that we all know Truth within us and our natural movement is to respond to the pull towards Truth when we have felt the impulse, no matter how far we have diverted from it. How we come to feeling this for ourselves is from our own spaciousness, and the appreciation of Serge Benhayon for delivering truth with zero imposition.

  61. The equation that says ‘invest in something, anticipate a return’ is not wrong, but now I can see how it so doesn’t add up when we spend so much money and make a concentrated effort and expect our entire life to turn better for ever after. Life is bigger than that. I travel to England to attend Universal Medicine events – this costs me lots of money and I obviously have to take some time off, and it was the most amazing, inspiring time ever, but I can see how the way I live every day is the meat of the things, and doing courses and having sessions cannot replace that.

    1. A great point you make Fumiyo, it is in the everyday choices and living way that expands us naturally. Once that reconnection has been made, and the responsibility accepted to live in respect to the truth, we are on our return.

  62. It certainly is confronting when we finally see that our “life is upside down”, but at that moment we have a choice; to stay living exactly the same as we always have done, or make the choice to turn it up the ‘right/real’ way. As you have shown from your list of what you have learned from the presentations of Serge Benhayon, living in a real way has the potential to be life changing, and for you it certainly has been, as well as for many others who have been inspired by you; what an amazing ripple effect.

  63. The sad fact is, that not many people can say that they actually like themselves, let alone see, feel and live their beauty on an everyday basis. Society is constantly in search of the betterment of looks, appearance, social status and all the rest. Being content is bucking the trends, let alone being in love with yourself and making loving choices.

  64. Beautiful to read your experience Bina of searching for the truth and finally finding it deep within you. Amazing the changes that you have come to in your life through your commitment to live from truth.

    1. Thank you Jill – reading your comment what sticks out is the last bit when you say ..”commitment to live from truth”. That speaks volumes and what I mean is that it is exactly how I choose every single day without any need for perfection.
      I have come to realise that we are on this earth school to learn and keep learning.
      This commitment to truth is like a strong compass inside me at the core of my being and I do not waver, deviate, digress, sit on the fence or move away when it comes to Truth.
      What it does is you tend to be less popular but you get a great nights sleep as you don’t go to bed in the tension of what you could and should have said or done, but didn’t.
      I am unwavering and relentless when it comes to Truth as to me Truth is God.

      Serge Benhayon has given me my life back and so much more. I know what a huge difference I make in this world. My Absolute Commitment to Truth is super strong and nothing will stop me expressing simply because I am fearless.
      This commitment to live truth comes with a grand Responsibility and that simply means ‘get on with it’.

  65. “So here was a man showing me how to check him out and everyone else. I had never ever come across anyone so open and giving me the tools to discern what was Truth and what was Not Truth.” In my experience no one, not even my parents who loved me dearly, were able to show or teach me this.

  66. Gosh, Bina, there are so many paths that we can go down in the search for truth but deep down we know when we have found it as you have beautifully shared. I can feel your total commitment to yourself and to life.

    1. Great Anne that you say just from reading this blog you can feel my total commitment to life and that of course means myself too.
      Commitment to life is the opposite to a life of comfort, merry go round, self medication and hiding, in which you go nowhere but lose everything of any value along the way. That was my experience and I had really had enough. Before I met Serge Benhayon I would ask out loud, pray and keep asking for Truth. Is it any surprise I get a friend asking me to attend a presentation – that was almost 12 years ago.
      I have never looked back and that old life is not on my radar – thank God.

  67. Serge Benhayon is the real thing – no question. Even before he presents or says anything, just the way he lives, moves and interacts with people is deeply, deeply inspiring.

    1. Yes spot on Meg, before Serge Benhayon even opens his mouth you are blessed and inspired by the quality of his movements .

      1. True – and watching the way someone moves and interacts with people is one of the best ways to know if what they are presenting is the real deal or not.

  68. What strikes me reading this, is not only that this is another modern-day miracle courtesy of the inspiration Serge Benhayon offers, but how desperate Bina was to reconnect to herself that it was possible to head into a financial crisis apparently without blinking. We have to be so discerning when we are looking to ‘find ourselves’ and yet in this desperation we are possibly the least discerning we have ever been, and will give everything away to the one who promises the greatest and fastest enlightenment. That is until you find yourself at Serge’s door, and this is where the responsibility for ourselves begins.

    1. Thank you Lucy Duffy for highlighting this and what makes this even more ugly is that I was working in financial services advising others about their money and yet living totally irresponsible with my own money. Weird but true. I had no awareness and chose not to discern, so I got lost even more in the delusion of all this spiritual nonsense. I feel I can say the word nonsense because that is exactly what it is and it is an illusion, so to me that means not real and not truth. The End.

  69. “These teachings have inspired me so much that I use them in my work to support others to not give up and present another way of Living which is simple, practical, truly works and makes sense.” Taking the teachings out to everyone is so important. Just by being who we naturally are – divine beings of love – others can be inspired and find a new way of being in the world for themselves too. No imposing or selling required!

  70. Reading through the list of things you have learnt from/through Serge Benhayon, I am in awe of how simple it truly is and how that can totally and utterly change our life once we commit to align to that way of living – and how on the other hand disturbing and infuriating that can be to some.

    1. Thank you Fumiyo and this list in the blog speaks volumes about the work of Serge Benhayon. No reader can be left in doubt this man is real and what he has to say makes sense. Above all it is is simple. I reckon this is what some may find hard to get their heads around as we are geared for complication and like ra ra and excitement. No chance of that with Serge Benhayon – just pure absolute unwavering truth.
      Commitment to life in full is what I made a choice to live and that is what has given me my life today, which is amazing on every level if you ask me. THANK GOD FOR SERGE BENHAYON is something I say everyday and I have written a letter to God to thank him for sending this man to earth at this time with ALL the answers so we get it.

  71. Bina, you say it and I couldn’t agree more, and feeling your strength and the changes you’ve made is the proof, it’s real, it works and we all know this deep inside us. We just needed reminding, thank God for Serge Benhayon and thank you for an awesome blog saying it like it is.

    1. Here here Monica – it does indeed work. The teachings of the Ageless Wisdom as presented by Serge Benhayon are changing and saving lives worldwide. No, he is not a miracle worker, but an amazing presenter that gives tools for everyone to work their own miracles in life. Our choices are everything, and knowing the power of this and our responsibility in every movement is life changing.

    2. Talking about the proof and that it is real Monica as you say.
      The blog states I met Serge Benhayon in 2005. It then took another 8 years for this first blog about him to be expressed and shared with the world. Thats a long time but I say it was worth LIVING the teachings so that when making claims as this blog does on a grand scale, it holds steady. In other words what has been written is lived and so there is not wobbles, self doubt or grey areas.

      That was 2013 and now it is the end of 2017.
      Almost 5 years have passed since these claims and have they changed?
      The answer is a simple No but there are more, so much more claims that once again are the LIVING EVIDENCE that the teachings of Serge Benhayon actually work.

      This is the type of proof the world wants to read and feel when ugly stuff comes up in the media about this incredible man who has helped humanity so much.

  72. Any one of the things learnt could change your life exponentially if embraced, together however, what has been presented by Universal Medicine is a blessing beyond words, literally transforming lives like yours, across the globe. Incredible stuff.

  73. What is fascinating is that I read this blog and can feel the changes and know that the simplicity of connecting back has brought you back to a real place, a place of absolute truth that actually is innate within us all. There is nothing else needed but to accept the fact and then stop making choices that keep us in the misery and distraction of every single day. The other fascinating thing is that there are so few comments on this blog. Why is that? The whole world could learn the truth about choosing love for them selves if they read this blog.

    1. Maybe one day the world will read this blog Lee and for now it is what it is.
      In answer to your question – why are there so few comments on this blog?
      Maybe what is being said is not everyones cup of tea. In other words blogs like this are not popular as the content is pretty direct and pukka.

      I am certain Serge Benhayon will be studied in the future with such detail that blogs like this will become tablets of Truth.

  74. Bina, I love the realness of all you share, and I can absolutely feel how much Universal Medicine had changed your life with you applying the teaching to how you live and how you are, and reading the results can be felt. There is nothing but simple, real truth and it’s great to hear and so very accessible to all of us. Thank you.

    1. Thank You Monica – the ‘realness’ that you love is because I have made a commitment to live super real and say it as it is in life and then on a blog or comment. No point procrastinating, holding it all in and bottling it up, sit on the fence or lounge around in comfort avoiding people because something needs to be said and you prefer to be nice. I just say it. If it’ s wrong I learn.
      I reckon that is why you can feel the truth just by reading the results. What is interesting is this blog is 4 years old and yet it still holds a quality of how I am living today. This in itself speaks volumes.

  75. Isn’t it interesting that when you came across the real deal, someone who was “Pukka”, you fought it at first. I am finding that we as people love drama, stimulation, chaos, mess and complication and yet when you find truth and know it so from deep within your body we have to accept simplicity and just get on with things. We come to understand that it’s no big deal to live a real life, a “pukka” life.

    1. There is such a joy in simplicity, although I relate to what you are saying Sally about our fascination with complexity. When life is simple the clarity is there to know what is next and the responsibility felt to take those steps.

    2. And living simply is so natural but it requires a big letting go – a letting go with honesty of what we’ve created and of what hurts us, and why we made those choices. It’s an exploration and well worth it to live the simplicity of love.

  76. Thank you Bina for sharing the inspiration to make such beautiful changes in your life. “This is real, I can feel it” this is exactly what I felt when I attended my first presentation by Serge Benhayon although it left me very confused as I realised that I had taken on so many ideals and beliefs that were not truth. I have done a great deal of letting go over the years and now feel free to be and appreciate being who I truly am.

    1. This appreciation business Mary for me in an ongoing process but more recently it has got stronger and I can actually feel my heart expand when I express my deep deep Appreciation for my relationships, my amazing home, my expression in the tiny detail and Serge Benhayon. This man has changed my life beyond words and now I inspire many people globally from all walks of life. Incredible really considering I was ‘written off’ by so many in my past as a loser.

  77. Very well said Bina. The fact that truth can actually be tangibly felt reveals the fact that there is a living quality to truth, love and wisdom. It is not just in our minds, or a form of thinking, it is simply a living way that has an energetic reality we all can tap into.

    1. I agree Joshua that people can feel living truth. This blog is a great example. So it is well past its date and yet people are still commenting.
      Could it be possible that if the writer/author lives a quality, a rhythm then those who are ready get pulled like a magnet to read it and be inspired? Possible?
      ‘You call it energetic reality we can all tap into’

  78. Wow Bina, the changes in your life are so clear now and exposes the mess that once contributed to keeping you trapped in the external life of recognition, spiritual pursuits and control that we all believe is it. No matter where we are in our lives, we can sense how honest and truth-full our choices are in the way we live our lives. The choice to step off the merry-go-round and to claim the truth we feel within can be chosen anytime and the outcome is the simple life you speak of. Thanks for sharing Bina.

    1. You are right Christine about that merry-go-round I was on for decades totally in illusion if you ask me.
      I used to be super sensitive, loved to focus on anything negative, have goals so high they would kill me to achieve but I was going to do them and so it goes on and on..

      I trashed so much money it is unreal and the way I live today is polar opposite. There is no indulgence or any form of self medication here during this christmas season. Today it is new years day and three of us made a choice to deep clean the office for 6 hours. We had fun and the joy is to be felt by all those who will now benefit because of our dedication and commitment. I feel like it is totally new, clear and very light. Unbelievable really.
      I have learned a lot from Serge Benhayon about why we are on earth and what true commitment to life is all about. I now live in this way and nothing will stop me getting on with it.

  79. This is a powerful sharing Bina. When truth is presented it is so obviously felt and then we have the choice of whether or not to embrace it and take responsibility. It’s clear from what you’ve shared of your experience that you knew you hadn’t come across truth until you met Serge Benhayon.

    1. Yes Deborah this is a powerful sharing and my very first blog about Serge Benhayon. You are so right that until I met Serge Benhayon, I most certainly had not come across truth. I always knew something did not feel right in my spiritual days and my body was never settled. I could not sustain anything consistently and the big list in this blog gives you the state I was in.
      Today life is very very different and I say every single day THANK GOD FOR SERGE BENHAYON.
      He has given a new marker for the word ‘normal’ and I like his version of normal as it is natural and does not disturb me in anyway.

  80. Brilliant blog Bina, I love your honesty and no nonsense way of expressing. I can so relate to fighting what Serge Benahyon presents because everything he presents is of absolutely truth, and truth asks us to be responsible, real and honest about our life. It took me a while before I stopped fighting, making excuses, delaying and then I started to embrace truth. From then on I have not looked back and the changes you’ve share are very similar to mine. This is incredible how one man, Serge Benhayon, living absolute love and truth can impact so many people globally. Amazing and powerful!

    1. Great you like the no nonsense style Chanly in how I write. It is an old blog but nevertheless the essence remains the same. Say it as it is in earthy language so others get it. No need for fluffy words or saying things and claiming this and that if you are not living that. I see no point.
      Yes it is incredible how one man called Serge Benhayon can live in such a way that reflects absolute truth and have an effect on so many like me and you around the world.

  81. Bina re-reading your blog is an absolute joy, your commitment to live the truth is deeply inspiring and you are a living miracle of what is possible when we choose love. I appreciate all you have shared here, as this has also been similar to my experience with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

    1. Thank you Anna. I have not been on this blog to check the comments for some time and have to say a bit blown away that anyone would even read it considering it is well past the sell by date.
      It was written 4 years ago and much has changed. I could say ‘ditto’ to my long list and add a lot more now. Life today is Back to Basics and Simple Living and I am the most content I have ever been.
      Nothing is a big deal and I am more than equipped with whatever life brings – thanks to the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
      This man and his company are out of this world literally. They sure know whats what to bring lasting change and I am living proof of that fact.

  82. In all honestly there is nothing spiritual about what Serge Benhayon presents, he is an ordinary man showing other that a simple, joyful, loving and very connected life is possible.

  83. Bina when I think of all those millions of people out there searching for something following the dangling carrot of spirituality I would love to show them this article. What you have experienced is profound changing your life from searching and empty to the fullness of where you are now is a absolute miracle. Thank you Bina your words are a big wake up call for many.

    1. The ‘spiritual’ quest is never-ending, somewhat like chasing your own tale. In surrender though the search is over and we begin a deepening connection to the wealth we hold within.

  84. Bina after reading your amazing long list of everything you have learnt about yourself and life since you were first introduced to Universal Medicine, how could you not want to book onto a course immediately? Your list entails all the fundamental pillars of a joyful, complete and fulfilling life, and every single point is deeply sought worldwide – and I can one billion percent vouch also for its truth.

  85. Thank you for speaking about this Bina, as this spiritual addiction is just as addictive as any drug. We can be blind to how we are harming ourselves until we end up bankrupt or penniless (as was my case) and completely numb. Interesting that under the guise of doing good, we can be doing so much harm. I thank God for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine who have taught me about self-love and self-responsibility. Negating ourselves to do good, in truth does no good at all. The sooner we wake up to that the better. I am so glad that you have. Your living way now helps and inspires so many to also change their lives and walk with Truth. Thank you.

    1. It is a great point you make, that addiction is addiction whether that be to drugs or spirituality. One may appear more harming than the other though in truth the later is more harmful as often it is not seem for the distraction it is, and can often keep us looking outward for eons until we see through the arrogance of self-identification.

  86. Great blog. It reveils the power of Simplicity. And simplicity is the ‘run-away’ for many spiritual driven people who look for the Big Answer to life. Bina, your life through your blog provides the Big Answer everybody is seeking, but apparently not waiting for. Why? Because it is sooooo simple. As you said: it is live simple by simply applying the basics of….Simplicity! Love it.

  87. I didn’t delve into the New Age spiritual movement but like many I was searching for something very elusive. Religion did not give me the answer to my quest. It took me a while to fully appreciate the teachings of Serge Benhayon and there is still so much to explore. However my life has changed in many ways: I am more open to people, far more gentle with myself and hence with others, I have more vitality than in my younger years and importantly for me I do not carry the burden of guilt that accompanied me for a very long time.

  88. The title says it all really ‘from spiritual addiction to simple truth’. I can put my hand up and say I have been there. The thing about chasing something which is false, is that the more we do it, the more we give our power away to that which we are chasing and the more we give up the connection with our own awareness from within. Astonishing how addictive this was for me. Universal Medicine was such a welcome stop, which took me by surprise. For ages I still tried to do the same, give my power away and gather knowledge. Such a blessing that Serge Benhayon will not play that game, he will keep treating you as an equal, will keep sharing great wisdom while reminding you that we all have the ability to access this wisdom, and that we are all everything we want to be already. It is completely a different scenario. No longer chasing something like an addict, but resting in the knowing that I am already far grander than I am able to comprehend, and slowly but surely healing and letting go of anything that gets in the way of living that expression.

  89. I agree katechorley this is ‘an incredible testimonial for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine’ and those like yourself agree because you have EQUALLY received the same and it is nothing short of life changing.
    Just for those reading this or studying this blogsite there is another stupendous and monumental testimonial for Serge Benhayon and well worth checking out.
    Visit – ‘Words on Serge Benhayon’ and the post is under the name of Serge Benhayon.
    If this blog is ‘incredible’ as Kate says here imagine what a new blog almost 3 years later would have.
    The 400+comments alone confirm the evolution of the writer which comes directly as a result of the alignment to the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
    A powerfull confirmation of what is possible when the teachings are LIVED.

  90. I really enjoyed reading your blog Bina. I am finding that one of the most powerful learnings for me since attending Universal Medicine is the fact that I do know what is being presented is the truth. I realise that I could only really know this if I have had previous lives and therefore where I am at now is the result of a series of choices. That being the case, I understand that it would be wise of me to use the tools and strategies I am learning to develop to find my way back so as to live from that place I recognise deep inside on a more consistent basis. So thank you – I feel like I now have renewed my commitment.

    1. This is true in my experience too Helen. What Universal Medicine presents is felt and known and so there is no need to convince me or have any strategy for me to ‘get it’. It is like I already know all this stuff and Serge Benhayon reminds me and it makes sense.
      The thing is what is presented is so simple and of course it makes sense because it really is the Truth. I am a real life example of the teachings of Universal Medicine and I trust one day someone will study all those like myself and you Helen who are aligned and Living the Truth in this way.

  91. Simply by claiming and living in that claim of how simple it is to live in truth is truly inspiring, Thank you Bina. It really brings it home how simple it is, we either accept that what is shared we already know deep within and live in that Joy, or we reject it and keep going around in circles.

  92. This is seriously pukka Bina. We do all know the truth within but sometimes we go a little off track at times, but to trust in the knowing that we all will return to the love we know to be true. That is simply divine.

    1. Your comment is “seriously pukka” Kelly Zarb.
      I agree we do all know the truth as you say but I would say I did not go a little off track, but majorly off track and totally and utterly lost my way until I came to the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
      Good news is I now know when I am off track very quickly as the quality inside my body changes and these days I get away with nothing. Example – food. I eat something I know was not the right choice and bingo my body tells me fast and I know what is needed to get back on track.

  93. Wow Bina, what you have shared here is a foundation that is as equally amazing as it is inspiring for anyone who is wanting to get off the merry go round of life and in particular, the addictive spiritual new age cycle that is a mere shadow of what our own soul can connect to and emanate.

    1. Love it Suse – ‘merry go round of life and in particular, the addictive spiritual new age cycle’. Yes that spiritual stuff leads you no where and you and me are living proof of those who lost our way and now are finally back on track.
      No one teaches us the clear and distinct difference between the spirit and the soul. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are the first and they have put it on the map so to speak. This is absolutely key if we are to ever KNOW who we truly are, what we are really about and what on earth are we doing here in this life in the first place.

  94. I agree Bina – ‘Serge Benhayon is Pukka’. After many years chasing the spiritual path as well and always feeling empty and lost, it was pure joy to meet Serge Benhayon and finally
    feel truth and true love resonate with every cell of my being.

    1. A great word Anna, PURE, to describe Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
      I agree that spiritual path left me empty and lost and it is only ten years later that I can say I know what true joy is. Nothing actually has to happen in my day that is big, wow, whammy or monumental for me to feel joy inside me. It is a quality I am learning to develop and appreciate even more because my days BSB (before Serge Benhayon) were zero joy and lots of tension.
      Joy is a constant state so it is very different to ‘happy’ which is a scale of very happy or not happy, and it cannot be sustained. I so get this and thank God I no longer live for a happy day or crave that happy stuff.

  95. Bina I love your sharing. I recall the first workshop I booked into I actually left a message to ask if it was still on because I’d not received a confirming email with directions to the workshop or an invoice to pay, things I was used to. Serge rang me back that evening to confirm it was happening, and I realised I’d been nervous and looking for reassurance, that’s all. I turned up to the next morning totally exhausted from my week and unsure if I’d last a day let alone a weekend … To my amazement I had so much more energy by the end (like a weight had lifted from my shoulders) that on Monday morning I was fresher than I’d been for a long time. I knew I had at last learned some tools that practically worked in the real world, and that the wisdom shared resonated deeply within – I knew I knew it already, but had forgotten.

    1. hartanne60, thanks for sharing and this is so true. Universal Medicine to not take payment until you turn up on the day, unless it is the big international retreats as they require huge planning so it makes sense. That says a lot about them as a company. No selling or no interest if you change your mind and do not show up. They are simply not invested in numbers whatsoever. I have seen this over 10 years and could this be another way to run a business. No marketing and no hard selling or any selling. Pretty cool I say.

      I used to attend spiritual workshops and to get bums on seats there would be an “early bird” price just to get you in and of course I fell for it time and time again. I had no idea that I was actually addicted to these workshops around the world and the sinking feeling on every single journey was the same. I felt sick, dreaded the workshop, was bored but never ever said that to anyone and could not wait to get back home and find another course. What I just said really makes no sense so it shows you how my mind was operating at that time. Total and utter addiction and such self neglect. Looking back I feel it was all really abusive and harming to me and my body but the emptiness inside me just kept going and the void remained until I met Serge Benhayon.

    2. Such a beautiful sharing that exactly pinpoints the amazing care and service that is always there when it comes to Universal Medicine. I love how you described a weight had lifted, I know that feeling so well after a Universal Medicine event.

  96. This is a lovely sharing Bina, It is interesting that you felt there was no sell or promotion of Universal Medicine; it was just always there for anybody to connect to. I also felt like it was true, and that buried deep down I already knew it. To hear Serge Benhayon say out loud what I knew to be true was so liberating and so exposing at the same time.

    1. A great point you make here Bernard Cincotta about no selling or promotion ever by Universal Medicine is what I have experienced since day dot and that is 10 years ago.
      I have been observing their business, their staff and how they conduct themselves.
      I attended a course recently and asked for a receipt. There were well over 200 participants and so I thought I would get a receipt at the end of the three day event.
      Oh no – it was there in the first break time. HELLO how can that be?
      Well it just shows you how super organised they are and what is really amazing is they are consistent and have been so for a decade. That in itself speaks volumes and this company is well worth studying. Universal Medicine are how future companies can be run and because it is so simple it really is UNIVERSAL and MEDICINE for us ALL.

  97. What an inspirational story, Bina. You are inspirational and gorgeous. The truth always wins out in the end. Thank you.

    1. I once was told this – TRUTH WILL ALWAYS BE THE LAST ONE STANDING
      I agree with you Anne this is an inspirational story and then comes the Responsibility to not just write a blog like this and stick it out there for the world but to do your best to commit and continue to LIVE what was being claimed and this I have done to the best of my ability with no perfection.
      It’s a tall order for many and some of my friends have confided in me and said that it exposes their level of comfort and not wanting to truly change as things are so much better in their lives than before.
      What I am learning is that I do not have to do anything to make me have value and worth, but just knowing who I am and that I am enough as a start point, is what allows me to truly evolve. I am getting it slowly and living what I know is the Truth and gosh what an incredible way to live every day.

  98. Theres no doubt that what Serge presents is the truth and you are living proof of how effective his teaching are

    1. YES Joe I agree – I am LIVING proof of the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and it has my own style and flavour. I do not copy, follow or try to be like him, his staff or anyone else. What I do is I stick my ‘common sense hat’ on and then apply the teachings to my everyday life and be willing to stay open with no restrictions.
      That simply means I do not have an agenda how I want life to look or be like. I know my choice to focus on first and foremost taking deep care of myself day in and day out is my priority, and then by staying open things really just happen.
      Who would have guessed that I would have 7 diplomas in my 50’s with no formal education as I was married as a teenager. Studying is really effortless if I am honest and this year alone I have completed 4 diplomas, so it says a lot.
      I reckon it is easy because of the ‘no agenda’ attitude I have. I study because the subject is relevant and needed if I am to continue supporting those who have given up on life, and learning and acquiring this knowledge has a meaning and purpose.
      For example – studying, and now qualified as a Drug, Alcohol and Solvent Abuse Counselor means I can reach more people and above all I get taken seriously. Without the bit of paper which we call a ‘formal certificate of qualification’ I would be dismissed with anything that I have to say.
      We live in a world where there is so much emphasis on formal education. I say we have lost the plot.

  99. It is so common when we come face to face with what shows the Truth about our life and our choices, instead of embracing the moment to learn and grow, we wish to run away and we often do. But there is always the nagging feeling that keeps calling us. Awesome that you chose to listen and go with it and goodness what fruits you have reaped as a result of pausing and considering what Serge Benhayon reflected to you many years ago, and as a result deepening your ability to listen and honour the truth within you. It is a blessing to have the likes of you who choose to live the teachings presented by Universal Medicine, which means more people have the opportunity to be inspired by the wisdom offered and to turn their lives round.

    1. I understand what you are saying here Golnaz about running the other way as we often do when Truth is presented especially in the way Serge Benhayon does with zero holding back.
      I recently attended a live presentation in the UK with a few hundred people from around the world and our mouths were left open when he talks about statistics of what is ACTUALLY going on in our world.
      I pick up the newspaper on the train to work and read what the celebrities are up to and this gets front page headlines or a double spread every single day and this is what we call news.
      Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine deliver other news like the best town voted in the UK has a college for students aged 13 to 18 where mental health issues are 74%.
      Self Harm in teenagers is on the rise and its huge and what are we doing, I mean really doing about it?
      HELLO – if this is the best town then what on earth are we not making noises and making this front page headlines.
      This man is incredible in his presentations and it does make you sit up and pay attention.
      I for one have my finger on the pulse so to speak and for no reason at all I felt a strong impulse to study Mental Health & Psychiatry this year. I knew that this is needed and it was not a course to ‘better my life’ or get another qualification. It is simply a tool to allow me to reach even more people in society as my job is to support others to not give up and what a job to be doing – thanks to Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon.

  100. Wow Bina, what an incredible testimonial for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine! And I concur that is all so true, no more searching needed as the truth and liberation we were seeking was inside us all along. I’ve always heard this spoken of in spiritual circles but now through the loving guidance of Universal Medicine I can now truly feel it for myself, in my own body that I walk with everyday. What an absolute blessing they are to the world.

    1. Thanks katechorley – Yes indeed this is a Wow incredible testimonial for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and what makes it a double WOW now is that the lists have grown and there is even more to say as I continue to LIVE to the best of my ability the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
      I guess I am what you would call a role model for what a true student is and there is nothing fancy or fluffy in they way I go about my daily stuff living in this world, which let’s face it is not easy. Gosh every single day there are things to deal with, challenges and what we call ‘Life’ and my job is to get on with it and keep checking into my body how I am feeling. Without using my body as a compass to guide me I would not be able to do what I do and how I learned to value, appreciate and take care of me and my body was through Serge Benhayon and what he presents and teaches.
      I also agree katechorley with you regarding the ‘no more searching needed’ – the end and thank God as it was draining in every single way and left me lost and spinning.
      I thank God all the time for getting me to Universal Medicine and I sometimes have to remind myself of how far I have come and where my life is at today. More appreciation is needed as this stuff is so powerful and life changing.

  101. Bina, I love how you shared how exposing you initially found Serge Benhayon’s teachings and explained this was why ‘you did not like the man’. You are not the first and will not be the last person to feel this way – for he does speak the truth that not only exposes how upside down we have lived our lives, but how upside down the world is that we have created.

    1. You are so right Suse – Serge Benhayon is not popular because ‘he does speak the truth’ and this goes for anyone including myself. I am also not popular as I actually do not find it normal now to keep my mouth shut if and when it is needed. What I mean is I do not hold back in expressing the Truth and it maybe a text or email or in person, I will say it as it is in the knowing that what I honoured was what I was feeling.
      The more ‘practice’ I have had it has got easier to the point now where I really do not lose sleep or spend my time concerned or worried what another thinks of me and that includes my mother, the neighbours or the CEO big wig who the world thinks deserves special treatment because of his title. To me they are ALL one and the same and for the record – they all love the Truth when I say it because they know I do not mince my words. My relationships are real and if I have people who no longer like me because I am a bit in your face when it comes to Truth simply because I am unwavering in my commitment to Truth – then so be it. It is what it is and I can sleep at night knowing that I said what needed to be said and I did not hold back so there is not that tension in my body when I go to sleep.

  102. Thank you Bina you are an inspiration ‘Today, I choose to be a student of my inner heart and my Absolute Commitment is to Self Love first and then share with others, only what I know is True and works for me.’ I for one can testify that you walk your talk and are always willing to share with others.

    1. Your comment blows me away Helen Elliott when you say “I for one can testify that you walk your talk and are always willing to share with others”. This is so true and it stands today and if I had to re-write this blog the only thing that needs changing is the lists as I could ADD more as so much more has changed since writing this. Even more inspiring and even more to share. I realise that there has to be another way to share even more of what I live that would support others so I have written a book called “Back to Basics” which will be rolled out as a gift to humanity together with blogs that inspire and are relevant to what I know and can feel is needed.
      This all feels real and true and it comes from the teachings and work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

  103. Well said Bina. I remember attending my first presentation by Serge Benhayon and, like you “I felt inspired for the first time in my life.” It was very inspiring and at the same time very unsettling as it challenged so many fixed ideals and beliefs that dominated my thinking but I knew I was hearing the truth and felt inspired to hear more of the wisdom that was offered. Ten years on and I continue to be inspired and appreciate the love and integrity and the simple truth of reconnecting to God and to who I truly am.

    1. So both you and me are LIVING proof Mary Adler that after 10 years we continue to ‘be inspired’ by the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. Both of us are living a life that is currently way better and far more caring, loving and healthy than we did before so how can that not be the Truth.
      Sometimes I have to stop and take stock of how far I have actually come from my wayward spiritual mumbo jumbo days. How lost I was and how sick I was because I never once paid any attention to my body. I recall my spiritual teachers being overweight and needing plenty of sugar in their diet whilst others were heavy smokers and needed alcohol in the break time of a workshop. This was wrong and I knew it because I could feel it but for me it was a band aid to a bullet wound job. I was desperate so I accepted the band aid. It was only AFTER Universal Medicine that the bullet got taken out so to speak and there is no need for any band aid now. Gosh what a realisation !

  104. Strong blog, Bina. I love your writing. What stands our for me is how so many of us have been (or still are) searching for truth and dive into the New Age stuff and courses. Yet when we meet Serge Benhayon and find Universal Medicine we instantly know and feel within we finally found it. We found truth and we can stop searching. With all the other modalities I kept searching, I never felt I found it until I met Serge.
    I loved the list with changes and the fact you are still deepening your choices and keep evolving. Thank you, Bina.

    1. I agree this is a ‘strong blog’ Monika R and it is making lots of claims and to then say it is ‘strong’ it confirms that the person writing must be living that. If after it has been posted TWO years later it is felt by you or another then this is confirmation that the LIVED teachings of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon do work. How do I know?
      I am LIVING proof and there is absolutely no need to doubt this anecdotal evidence.
      Thank you Monika for saying you ‘loved the lists with changes..’ and YES I am making the choice to continue developing and evolving and of course it all comes with learning.
      I am no halo head and I do not aim for perfection. I live in the real world knowing what it is all really about, and do my bit which I do best, and that is keep dealing with the daily stuff and anything that comes up that presses my buttons, and simply GET ON WITH IT.

  105. “So here was an ordinary man, not special with no followers or anything like that, talking sense and everything he said was like a reminder.” This sentence describes Serge Benhayon and the wisdom he presents to a T – divine genius Bina.

    1. I agree Leonne that one sentence is “divine genius” as you say because it is the Truth.
      Serge Benhayon is not selling you anything or wanting anything from you and you get to feel that from day one. He makes sense and you just cannot stop agreeing or nodding saying Yes Yes as I have been doing for 10 years now.
      The truth is we ALL know this ancient wisdom and our bodies seem to agree even if our heads want to turn away, look away and not listen.
      We do know this and so it is a reminder of something we have chosen to forget as it suited us. Once we can admit that we get the full whammy and life becomes amazing every single day. I am living proof of that and it just gets better.

    2. Leonne I love this sentence too, it perfectly describes Serge Benhayon and the way he presents, every word simply makes sense and there is a familiarity that makes it feel like every word is simply a reminder that ultimately: you know who you are.

  106. Bina, this blog is inspiring and so down-to-earth and it shows that everyone can make changes once they reconnect to the truth within themselves no matter how far away from the truth they have been living. Like you I was on a spiritual merry-go-round spending money on looking for answers outside of me. I got completely drained from giving my power to others and I gave up on life. As soon as I heard Serge Benhayon speak I knew that he spoke Truth. Serge presents a new way of living and reminds us that the truth lies within us all. I am another one of the thousands who has been inspired by him and it’s just a matter of making different choices and applying simple tools in day to day living. It’s never too late to do it – at seventy years of age I am far more vital than I was at 50.

    1. That is a huge statement and thank you Sandra Wilson for stating that at seventy years of age you are ‘far more vital than you was at 50’.
      This is why Universal Medicine have to be studied as they have living sciences like you and me who are confirming there is another way to live.
      I have some regular clients who come and go over the years and they have said that I have not changed for the worse or aged or lost my spark. What they have noticed is that I am the same but lighter and seem to be more strong and steady. I would have to agree.

    1. I agree felixschumacher8 – So many people the world over would give anything to have lived knowledge of even one of the learnings Bina lists in her blog. Bina is an absolute inspiration and there is no doubt she is the real deal.

    2. You kept this simple Felix Schumacher and it stopped me and I had tears. Thank YOU.
      Why? You got me to feel and deeply APPRECIATE how far I have come and the life I lead today ‘is extraordinarily inspiring’. Yes I am indeed Pukka through and through.
      I thank God for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine because without them I would not be writing this today. Fact.

  107. It is extraordinary the affect that hearing and connecting to truth has had on your life. The lessons you have learnt and the inspiration you have received has permeated and ignited all areas of your life through your choice to live responsibly… your summary lists are a powerful testament to this. Thank you for sharing your story. There is no doubt in my mind either that Serge in the real thing.

    1. I love your comment Samantha and YES the ‘summary lists are a powerful testament’ and YES is has happened through my choice to LIVE responsibly.
      This blog was written in 2013 and I am making claims then and when you stick something out there in cyber world I feel it comes with a huge responsibility. That does not mean I have to uphold anything or try and be perfect. All I have to do is continue LIVING the ever expanding teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and keep it simple, bring things back to basics and GET ON WITH IT.
      This blog and every word stands firm and is a solid digital footprint that cannot be ignored.
      Why – it is the Truth and Truth cannot be erased.

  108. Hello Bina, I love the way you have expressed through this blog, very straight forward and to the point, and true. When I too first went and heard Serge Benhayon speak I knew that he was the real thing – Pukka (Love that word).

    1. Thanks Deidre – I am “straight forward and to the point and true” in my daily life. Say it as it is in my no nonsense manner and because I LIVE in this way day in and day out and people like you get to the feel that. It goes wrong when we try to write what we don’t live everyday and wonder why we cannot remain consistent.
      Re-visiting this blog deserves my fuel injection of where I am today and what is amazing, is this blog still feels pukka to me – Thanks to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine as I am most certainly ‘on track’. By that I mean I have not gone wayward and back to my old nonsense behaviour.
      I choose to live a very self connecting life and that brings me what is needed each day.

  109. Bina you write for many of us who were searching, reading, paying for courses and only ever getting fleeting relief from the emptiness and despair. This common experience tells us a lot about energy and how it works. We are either worked by it emotionally or we choose the soulful way – harmony and love.

    1. No more searching, reading and paying for courses now Bernadette, just simply applying the teachings of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and GETTING ON WITH IT.
      My job is to stay open and keep using my body as a compass as there is no better guide to direct me in life.
      I cannot stop learning from Universal Medicine who are leaders today in our world for true health and well being.

  110. There are several things that Serge Benhayon has said over the years that are very significant and have remained with me. One was’ they can take everything you have but they can’t take you’. At the time it meant everything, especially with what I was going through, and made me realise that value lived within me.

    1. Incredible Matthew, how awesome is that? And your comment reminded me of how I felt as a child. I felt that no matter what was happening around me, the abuse that was surrounding me could not take away what I hold from within, that deep knowing of who I am, it was unbreakable.

  111. Wow, love your blog Bina. So straightforward and captures everything about Serge Benhayon and his work so exactly. Yes he is certainly Pukka! And so, I can feel, are you.

    1. Thanks Jeanette and I agree I would have to be pukka too to write so “straightforward and capture everything about Serge Benhayon”.
      I just cannot get over the date and yet I spent the next few years thinking “oh I can’t say anymore or whats the point no one is interested in reading a pukka blog”.
      What a load of twaddle that was. Today I claim to be a prolific writer who is dedicated to bringing out blogs and information that is needed for humanity that will ask them to start questioning things and not just accepting what is going on in our world today.
      For now, all I can say is watch out world.

  112. Bina this is so powerful ! Thank You for sharing that and expressing so clearly 🙂 everything You write is so claimed and so true. Truly inspiring! With love Nadine

    1. Thank You Nadine.
      I agree EVERYTHING I “write is so claimed and so true”.
      This blog is old in the days when you got very few people who were commenting. I know for a fact if this was on the front page today, there would be a thousand comments because it is raw and uncut Truth about a man called Serge Benhayon and his company Universal Medicine and Truth seems to have a way of pulling in more comments. It requires no work or effort.

  113. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are the ‘real deal’, non-imposing, no guru or spiritual new age ideals. Simple honest and true practical teachings.
    I absolutely loved your blog Bina, and myself once been a Londoner I agree Serge is ‘Pukka’ (the real deal).

    1. I agree Thomas that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are the real deal and I too am super Pukka indeed.
      There is nothing you could not Love about this blog and check the date out its well past its sell by date but having a flick through it – I reckon its still alive. No reason than I am alive and simply getting on with it.

  114. Such a beautiful and confirming blog Bina that highlights we all have within us the truth we seek, we sometimes just need a reminder such as what is offered by the presentations of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon. It inspires me to know that it truly is as simple as living the truth of who you are in the world.

    1. You are right Jade this blog is confirming and that says a lot. That someone can actually turn their life around by making new choices and then that big word – Commitment.
      To have Commitment to Life which I most certainly have is to have commitment in all areas and not just some. So an example is there is no point putting my focus attention effort and detail into my work but home life sucks or I do not feel joy cooking for myself. This would simply not be commitment to life in full. I really get this and only this week I was saying to my husband that to spend our day off getting the house in order, cleaning, clearing out that which is no longer needed feels so great. Its been like this for many years and things move and life is not stuck in any area.
      Every day I say Thank You God for sending Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine to show me and others the true way.

  115. Just check out the list that Bina presents here, it says it all. Meeting Serge Benhayon has brought us back to being real, being loving with ourselves and others, and so very much more.

    1. Thanks Katinka – I have checked out the list and what I would add now – two years later is that I am learning what true expression is about. It is not just about the quality I write or send an email or text but how I live and do things in every moment and that includes cleaning out my washing machine soap dish. My commitment to taking deep care of myself extends to my belongings and appreciating what I have.
      I no longer hanker after needing or wanting anything out there. My life is exactly where it is because of my choices. If there is anything I do not love about my life then I have a choice to change that.
      I agree with you that meeting Serge Benhayon has not just brought me back to the real me but “so very much more” as you say Katinka.

    2. I love reading Bina’s list, it is so inspiring. What an amazing transformation, truly remarkable. It is a blessing to meet so many, many amazing and inspiring people who are choosing to make more and more loving choices, spreading and sharing love, reaching people from the other side of the world and back.

  116. It’s hard to believe it can be that simple in a world where we like to complicate things and yet, there it is, a way of living that brings us back to who we truly are!

    1. I agree delorme2013 that the simple bit is what we find hard to comprehend. Why is it that we prefer to complicate things and we hold little value to anything that is simple. Our world tends to dismiss simplicity and yet it is the very thing that is needed if we are to get back to true living.
      I put effort, focus and attention every single day into my life to keep things simple. I make things look easy and effortless but I am working hard to make it simple. I love Simple Living as it is now a way of life for me and it is deeply rewarding. Having just moved into a smaller house, I am reviewing even more to live even more simply. It is an ongoing process which I enjoy as letting go of what no longer truly supports me brings in a new level of simple living.

      1. Funny you mention moving into a smaller house Bina, as I live together with my partner in a 2 bedroom appartment which is actually missing one more room…. the good thing is, we don’t store to much stuff, we have to keep it simple……

  117. Gorgeous story Bina, This is what it is all about, living our own truth and knowing that we are all divine beings, and that there is no need for anything else than an true connection with self, and with this the people around us.

    1. Yes Benkt – I would agree that it really is ALL about living our own truth. What Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have given me is a template and by that I mean a Way of Living and the tools to connect to me deep inside where I have access to the same wisdom they have presented. That way I get a bespoke tailor-made recipe for what I need to do in my life, how to live that life and I no longer need to rely on anything outside of me to give it to me. I hope this makes sense.

      1. I agree Bina, Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have given us a template – simple practical ways of living with energetic integrity as Serge does – the recipe is so life-changing. I really appreciate not having to look anywhere, search or strive, but just be myself and make wise and loving choices. I now appreciate what true responsibility means and how empowering it feels.

      2. Thank you Bina, Benkt and Beverley, absolutely we have been presented with the keys to heaven through understanding our choices and that by living loving principles we serve all equally.

    2. Well said Benkt, all we need is to re-connect to ourselves to realise that we are all divine beings. The choice is to live from that truth, or not, and our consequences are accordingly.

  118. Thank you Bina for everything you have ever shared from how you’ve adopted the work of Universal Medicine into your life. When one does it, it seems too good to be true, but when more people start living in a more true way it breaks down that barrier of mistrust. If there is anything I have learnt from you it is that consistency is key and this is something I will forever appreciate.

    1. Thank you Leigh and this is correct. A life of true consistency is a life of true responsibility. We can have ingrained behaviours that harm but how about knocking that stuff out and locking in behaviours that truly support us in every way and at the same time ensure we do not harm others.
      Its takes time and its not a quick fix solution based thing. To build consistency requires us to deepen our COMMITMENT TO LIFE in every area and then things start to flow and even if you wobble, you have locked into your foundation the very things you need to get back in the flow zone.

    2. That’s awesome Leigh, beautiful to read. I can feel your deep appreciation for Bina and it is so lovely to experience. Thank you.

  119. It struck me also Bina Pattel when I first met Serge Benhayon that he was completely transparent, open and humble. He has always presented the fact that we can all discern the quality of energy of anything (including him) and therefore the truth about what is presented.

    1. Great you mention this word ‘transparent’ because that is what Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are and there are very few people and businesses operating in this way today. I don’t mean just here and there, I mean totally and ABSOLUTELY TRANSPARENT in every single way. That is huge and it comes with an incredible about of commitment and integrity. I have been clocking them for 10 years now and they sure have consistently continued to be growing in business and as for Serge Benhayon – well he has raised the bar in terms of what True Responsibility and Integrity actually mean.
      A tall order for many but what he lives is what all of us can if we make choices like he does. Bottom line is, it all comes down to our choices.

  120. When I read your blog Bina I could hear your voice sharing it with me. You are Pukka and your story is as Pukka as it gets! Like hello, does this not say it ALL – miraculous!

    1. Great comment Marcia and thank you. Hello – this blog does say it ALL and that was over two years ago.
      So what has changed?
      Well I am Living a life of True Responsibility which is a life of True Consistency.
      I have realised that Commitment to Life in full is the only way to live and the benefits are beyond words.

    1. YES I am the real deal Matthew and I am not afraid of saying so.
      Loads of people know I am and I continue to shine my bright light and get on with it.
      The need to look outside and bang on about what I do and how I do so much in a day is no longer there. I simply focus on the task in hand and always make sure there is time for me and I keep things super simple. That is the recipe for now and it works for sure.

  121. Thank you Bina for sharing your return to the truth of who you are – inspiring and truly joyful to read. The search for truth outside myself was also a tireless and exhausting road. When I met Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine another way was reflected to me, a truth that I could not deny. A way that was lead from the truth and wisdom from within my inner-heart, from my connection to my essence within, a connection that was always there waiting for my return to the divine love that I am, and I know that we all are equally so.

  122. Love your blog Bina. This is the second read for me. Every time I read it I have some new revelation, I love your inspirational summary. There is so much to learn and live, but just being love and connecting to our inner most makes this a beautiful journey. Thanks to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine for sharing the Truth.

  123. Great blog Bina. I too remember saying these words to Serge Benhayon on the first workshop I attended. “This is real, I can feel it”. And from that point I have not looked back. No where in my search of Spiritual new Age pursuits did I find such truth as is offered by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.

    1. I agree Beverly, I too could not find such Truth in all my spiritual pursuits. Looking back I can now see how it lead me off track and because all the modalities came from people who were not truly living their own Truth, there was always a divide. In other words it was us and them. Example – a course costing £3000 in Hawaii was held in a hut on the land of the owner, who was our workshop leader. It was boiling hot and the seats were so close, I recall saying this is worse the cabin class on an airline. There were over 100 of us and this was a regular sell out event. I knew it felt wrong as there was no Unity, Equalness, Oneness or Brotherhood but at the time I had a need and it was desperate. I wanted to be fixed and I wanted answers. The spiritual new age stuff is good at fixing and answers that are Not the Truth.

  124. So true Bina Serge Benhayon is Pukka! You have a remarkable story thank you for sharing. I love the fact that no matter how many versions of truth we may hear or sometimes even fall for, our body always has the final say as we know inside of us what it is that is truly true.

  125. Wow Bina, what an amazing yet simple read! Thank you for sharing your development and what you have experienced – by choice, to then end up finding what you were looking for inside of yourself. I can very much relate to what you’re sharing. And me too, I was running away in 2004 after meeting Serge Benhayon for the first time. I did however know clearly that it was a totally different experience being with Serge Benhayon and attending a course with Universal Medicine in comparison to all the spiritual pursuits I had been indulging in up until then. I did not think at the time I was ready for these changes that would inevitably follow. But deep inside I had clearly recognised that if I ever was in trouble again, I knew where to come. And so it happened, at the end of 2006, clearly what I was doing and what I was choosing was not working and I felt very lost. There was only one way to go for me at that point – to go back and listen more deeply to what Serge was sharing. Two years earlier I had so clearly felt the total integrity and love in what Serge Benhayon was offering, and that deep inside of me I already knew what he was talking about. Life has never been the same again. Everything now makes total sense; no more mysteries and unanswered questions. I look forward to more of your blogs Bina.

    1. Thanks Esther for the clear reminder of the total love and integrity that Serge Benhayon offers to us all equally. Like you, there are no more mysteries or unanswered questions and this itself has brought about less tension in my body. It is through understanding that I have come to realise so much about me, my body, life and what this earth life is all about. I cannot imagine living another way as what Universal Medicine presents is so simple and practical. I have always loved the super simple stuff and anything complicated does my head in and I avoid it like the plague.
      More blogs are coming Esther, I have written plenty and will continue writing until my last breath, so all I can say now is – watch out world !

  126. Bina, your story shows how The Livingness, as presented by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, once embraced, can transform every area of our lives. Inspirational.

    1. Yes you are right Karen and I am living proof that what is presented by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine can transform every area of our lives. It takes time and if you want a quick fix, an easy road or dip in and out of your comfort then it’s going to mean you are on the delay button to the real you.
      I like to evolve and not be stuck in any area of my life. I know that when I go to bed at night my body is not feeling tension and what I have lived and done in my day has meaning and purpose.
      I have no intention of ever holding back anything and so I go about my day not knowing what is ahead or who I will be meeting but I am open to anything and have no restrictions. By that I mean I do not have an agenda of how I would like my life to look or be.
      I have to say there is a kind of magic in living this way and it is ‘OMG – guess what happened today?’ moments every day so what an incredible way to live.

  127. Thank you and well claimed. You have finally found the real thing and the truth is showing in your life.

  128. Thank You Bina for this blog. As Rowena said, you are absolutely correct “Serge Benhayon is Pukka” and so are You. I have nothing more to say.

    1. Totally agree with you Victoria that both Serge Benhayon and myself are Pukka and I too have nothing more to say.

  129. There are 2 words pulsing in me reading this: RESPONSIBILITY and TRUTH. No complexity, just power and REAL. Thank you for being an absolute inspiration and also for reconfirming some of my own experiences of Serge Benhayon, who truly IS the real deal.

    1. Your two words are making sense and they go hand in hand Jenifer Swallow if you know what I mean. To get to TRUTH you need to LIVE a life of true RESPONSIBILITY which is a life of true consistency.
      So here we go writing a blog like this over two years ago and then taking responsibility for the daily choices I make and being consistent in my commitment means you get Truth and the blog is not dead or lost its essence. It is alive and can be felt by any reader and the good news is you cannot un-read what you have read and you cannot un-feel what you have just felt.

    1. This is interesting franciscoclara8 – you say this is a “powerful blog” two years after it was written. Generally blogs have a shelf life and very few bother even to comment after the initial stage when it is flavour of the month.
      The reason why this blog is not dead but feels well and truly alive is because the writer is LIVING the teachings of Universal Medicine and the list quoted in this blog continues and is evolving. This is what people actually feel. They feel the QUALITY of the person and how they are living does come through. This is not a one minute wonder trying to get people to join Universal Medicine but a walking, talking living science called Bina Pattel who needs to be studied as she LIVES what Serge Benhayon is presenting.

  130. Thank you Bina for a very clear and concise look at your journey to Serge Benhayons teachings of the Ancient Wisdom that we all have inside and once we realise this it is our responsibility to acknowledge and live this.

  131. Bina, I loved reading this and I love how you say of Serge Benhayon: “So here was an ordinary man, not special with no followers or anything like that, talking sense and everything he said was like a reminder. I recognised that deep inside me I know this stuff and I was just re-connecting back to this wisdom.” After a lifetime of being a ‘spiritual junkie’, lost in the blind stumble of the spiritual New Age and dazzled by its false lights, I too stopped dead in my tracks on hearing what Serge was offering – no quick fixes, no solutions, no magical cures or wonder drugs, just Absolute Truth, available on tap from the deep well within if I choose to connect to it also. So simple. What on earth was I doing for so long?! Thank you for sharing your journey home with us.

    1. Beautifully expressed Liane ‘just Absolute Truth, available on tap from the deep well within if I choose to connect to it also.’

    2. Just like you Liane I was a ‘spiritual junkie’ and just had a thought how much money I actually spent. I have mentioned the workshops and courses around the world and I forgot about the books and crystals and others stuff that was suffocating me in my house that was somehow going to bring me the Truth.
      Today I live such a simple life that many would be shocked literally. It is so SO basic and I choose to commit to letting go or more and more things that no longer truly support me or are not needed. We have gone from a triple garage, huge 4 bedroom detached to a small house that feels light, spacious and very clear. It is work in progress but even the sink plug hole gets the 5 star treatment – same as any area of my home.
      Simple Living is the way for me and bringing everything back to basics.

  132. Your search for Truth brought you to different doors. Yet, Truth was not there until you felt clearly that what you heard had a distinct resonance in your body. How different was my experience! Never bother to search for Truth. Never knocked on different doors. What got me in the search for Truth was feeling it clearly in my body. Then the words started making sense and the changes started happening.

  133. Bina, thank you. This is a brilliant blog, just like meeting you in person, so simple, no fluffing about. I just love it. I can almost hear you say ‘Get on with it, girl’.

    1. Yes – You live in Japan and I live in the UK and you have met me so there you go even with no regular contact you can say I am ‘so simple, no fluffing about’.
      I know some who don’t like the uncomfortableness of this direct no fluff style but more and more seem to love it as it cuts through the nonsense and gets to the point.
      Time is precious so whats the point of fluffing around – say it as it is and GET ON WITH IT.

  134. After my lifelong efforting, trying & pushing which exhausted me into dysfunction, it is incredible to be told “Jo so keep living the real You – nothing more is needed.” …and even more powerful than that is starting to FEEL the truth of the fact that ‘I just need to live who I really am; just be myself, nothing more’…and that will serve.

    This makes sense. This is worth working hard for; to remember how to just be the real ME. I know I’m not here to be anything else!

  135. I love the way you write Bina it is very straight forward and playful. I also love this line “I can actually see my beauty and it’s there Everyday.” What a great way to feel about yourself. Inspiring.

    1. Thank you for highlighting this sentence Vanessa! I agree that this is an exceptional line, which I almost missed:
      “I can actually see my beauty and it’s there Everyday”.
      For you Bina to say this, after everything you have shared that was going on in your life and that at age 51 is extraordinary and I don’t know many people that do feel that, not to speak of expressing it in public. And I can feel it is not just a phrase you actually really do. Amazing!

      1. A great point you make here Judith Andras and I agree ‘it is not just a phrase’ I actually really do see my beauty and it is there Everyday.
        I used to squirm at the thought of this word and spent my time focussing on the ugly stuff in me and in my life. Gone are those days and I love strutting my stuff, doing my thing and loving people and loving life. Not airy fairy, out there utopian, ga ga land BUT keeping it real, light super simple and down to earth.

    2. Thanks Vanessa for confirming it is ok to be me when I write in my straightforward style which is playful but gets the point across. Its been over two years since this blog was written and Yes I can see my beauty and it is still there Everyday as you quote Vanessa.
      I am in for the long haul and by that I mean I am Committed to Life in full no matter what comes my way. Thanks to the teachings of Universal Medicine, I have developed a solid foundation and this supports me to stay steady and keep shining my bright light so others know there is another way. My job is now to support others to not give up on life as that was exactly where I was once upon a time, not that long ago..
      People relate to you when they can feel you have been where they are.

    3. Thank You Vanessa – Yes indeed it is a great way to feel about myself everyday and this is why I can LIVE with myself and if I make a boo boo in the day, so what – I no longer give myself a hard time but I do stick my understanding hat on and that helps.
      The thing is I question things that don’t feel right and I no longer accept things that I know are not the Truth. Yes that means you become unpopular but the Truth is you become real and that is what means more to me than anything.
      Learnt this pukka stuff from this amazing man called Serge Benhayon.

  136. Bina, you are awesome! What a difference the truth makes! By listening to what you know to be true in your heart you have turned your life around and are now a living inspiration of what it means to express truth.

    1. I agree with you Samantha – “what a difference the Truth makes” if we choose to listen and apply it to our life every single day to the best of our ability.
      This blog was written a few years ago and yet it still holds that essence of Truth and because I live what I know is the Truth somehow it feels alive and not dead words on a page making claims.
      Those claims are lived in my body and that is something that cannot be ignored.
      Science would learn a lot more if they started studying the students of Universal Medicine, people like me who walk the walk and talk the talk with no holding back.
      Like many of us I have been judged and criticised because of my lack of commitment and inconsistency. That was the past and it has no effect on me now.
      My life today is a life of true consistency which is a life of true RESPONSIBILITY.

  137. I love your direct, simple, factual, humourous, no nonsense blog Bina. So obviously expressed from the truth you have connected with and live every day. I appreciate what you do out there in the world from the foundation you have built, it is amazing.

  138. Bina, I love what you’ve written, absolute truth and no messing – fantastic. I so related to how you describe your first meeting with Serge Benhayon and wanting to run away, I know that, I had that too, I remember basically having a stop and asking awkward questions quite belligerently as I didn’t want to feel what I’d chosen. And as you said I knew Serge was the real deal and what he presented was the real deal which is why I was so angry and annoyed – I’d conned myself and make choices which didn’t truly support me. And now here was this man lovingly presenting to me that I choose and I could choose differently and I did, I have and I continue to. Thank you to Serge Benhayon and you too Bina Patel for speaking truth and inspiring me.

    1. Thank you Monicag2 for this comment and what strikes me is the bit when you say “I’d conned myself and make choices which didn’t truly support me.” Very few would admit that and the changes you then chose to make AFTER meeting Serge Benhayon confirms that we really do have a choice in how we want our life to be.
      I often wonder where on earth I would be had I not found Universal Medicine. Just knowing how to breathe correctly has transformed my life and ALL the other realisations, teachings, understanding and awareness are a bonus. This has supported me so much, I felt inspired to help others and continue to do so.

  139. Thank you, Bina, for sharing your story in this way. Very simple and so, so powerful.

    I began attending Universal Medicine courses in 2010 and it took me a long time to begin to accept that I am responsible for all of the choices I make. It’s taken me even longer to also get really honest and feel the impact on others of the choices I make, and be willing to take full responsibility for it.

    This alone has been a momentous learning, and while at times it feels hard to take, I know that if I did not allow myself to feel Truth, I would never be able to pull myself out of the miasma that I had been living in.

    I feel such deep appreciation for Universal Medicine, Serge Benhayon, practitioners like you, Bina Pattel, who are committed to true service, and for myself for choosing to stay with it when the going gets tough!

  140. Dear Bina, Thank you for your awesome blog. What a great read this morning.. Made me have a laugh! I can relate to when you first met Serge Benhayon and you just walked away and didn’t want to hear the truth. As that would mean that everything you had been living was a lie! I so get that… For me, what I found was that I just didn’t want to have to take responsibility. I had avoided responsibility my whole life and had tried to blame everyone else and here I was being asked to look at my part in all of my life, my choices and what was in fact mine to be responsible for.
    I also like the part where you share how we have our own tools to discern what is truth and what is not, so that we are no longer fooled.
    And… thanks for pointing out how there is never any selling or promotion at the courses. It is a rare thing in our media packed, advertising full world and needs to be acknowledged.

    1. Dear Rosie – great to hear the blog made you laugh. I say we keep things light and yet get the point across. There is enough serious stuff going on in our world so having a real laugh is important but of course, never at the expense of another.
      Next – BIG Thanks for mentioning about Responsibility. If I am honest I can now see that was the reason I first walked away. By listening to Serge Benhayon’s presentations, it made me realise how my whole life was a lie and then it would also mean I would need to be responsible for my choices. This was something I could not handle at the time as I was very comfortable in my uncomfortableness. However, the pull to go back six months later was just too strong. I have never looked back since and my life today is deeply content and the joy is “nothing is missing” so there is no looking or searching for anything.

  141. This is a great blog, strong and claimed to the core that Serge Benhayon and what he presents is the real deal. There is nothing he doesn’t present that is not equally within everyone, the same goes for yourself in your writing and your work. I have felt that this same quality of absoluteness is within me as well and has great potential, as we all have equally.

    1. ​Thank You Leigh and I agree there is nothing Serge Benhayon presents that is not Equally for everyone.
      This is now also my truth and how I choose to live.
      Yes Leigh, we all have this same quality of absoluteness within us, and it is for each of us to keep shining that light and that great potential within us all – Equally so.

  142. I love this blog Bina. To the point and very powerful. Serge Benhayon is the real deal.

    1. I agree with you Debra that this blog is to the point and very powerfull. I also agree that Serge Benhayon is the real deal and so am I.
      I have used the template that he presents as a way of Living and then applied it to my life then I make choices to Live to the best of my ability each day in a way that keeps me Committed to Life.
      What I am now observing is how many people are checking out from life or choosing to invest in certain areas of their life only. For example making work really a focus but the home life sucks. What I know is this simply will not work as we put commitment into one area but negating other areas so in Truth we are not really committed.
      Commitment to Life knocks out the comfort pockets in our life and it gets us on track in a way that supports our body. This means each day does not feel way up or way down but instead a constant steadiness.
      A great example was christmas day yesterday and going to bed xmas eve I was deeply appreciating all that Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine have given me as I was able to have my usual wind down time and quality of sleep and its another day instead of the ra ra, racy body and increased level of anxiousness that I used to have leading up to christmas.
      In fact, I have no need now to indulge in any of this festive season stuff and I most certainly do not feel like I am missing anything. This in itself is telling me how far I have come and what a joy to live this way and not worry about what others think or say about me.

  143. I got chills when I read what you said to Serge, “This is real, I can feel it”… after being so lost; because I have had a parallel experience. I also feel how real this is, how true and full an understanding of our existence Serge is sharing. This has been confirmed in every way over the past 4 years of studying what Serge Benhayon presents and learning to live it; getting back to the real Me and developing a true life with your incredible, powerful and simply-tangible support, Bina Pattel! True support which is lived by you in full just as you describe. No less! With infinite and rippling appreciation and love – Jo.

    1. I appreciate your comments Jo Billings. I am learning now to Appreciate what I bring to this world so BIG Thanks for confirming back to me at this time in my development. I Know you to be equally power-full Jo so keep living the real You – nothing more is needed.

  144. Outstanding blog Bina. Your love,truth and clarity shine through. You are a constant and continual inspiration in every way,a true example that there is another way of living. Totally refreshing. Thank you deeply for all your consistent support and in showing me how to truly live in this world. Looking forward to more blogs.

    1. Thank You J Stewart. My style is very straight forward and I am a no nonsense woman who just says it as it is and I now feel people actually like this and I love being me so it works.

  145. Serge is Pukka and so are his presentations. Power-full and full of inspiration. I feel this in your words and in your life. Thank you Bina.

  146. A very powerful piece that is absolutely pukka. You live as you speak and now write… Bina you rock, keep your blogs coming… you are a breath of fresh air.

  147. The start of things to come… I joyfully wait for more expression Bina. Your path is chosen now and your commitment and dedication to truth and exposing lies will always be from a true foundation of Love. Thank you so much!

  148. The simplicity of Truth shines through what you say – so inspiring – I look forward to reading more!

  149. Awesome and very inspiring Bina. I look forward to reading more of your blogs.

  150. Hello Bina. It was lovely to read your truly inspirational blog as well as Tim’s. “This is real, I can feel it” says it succinctly. I look forward to reading more in the future…

  151. Thank you Bina for expressing your love and truth. Your commitment to self and others is inspiring.

  152. Yes Pukka indeed Bina! I remember so clearly meeting Serge Benhayon and knowing “this guy knows what he is talking about” – a feeling I had never had before.

    1. Correct Felicity – Serge Benhayon sure knows what he is talking about. After 9 years of studying him and clocking him and registering what he says, I am living proof that his teachings make a huge difference not only to my life but ALL those whose lives I inspire by being the real me.

  153. What an awesome blog! I could say DITTO to so many of the points you have written. Serge is Pukka in my books too, Bina.

  154. Dear Bina,

    Yes I confirm what you said – about Serge and about you. I have known you since the beginning of Universal Medicine’s presentations in the UK. As you ran away from truth presented by Serge, I did run away from the same truth you presented to me. But no longer… you present truth in a direct unwavering simple and sometimes confronting way. But that’s what I love!

  155. This is great Bina. Thank you for getting straight to the point and sharing so honestly about the changes that are possible for us all. It is awesome to see all the changes listed too. A real testimony. I know I can relate to that ongoing search – knowing things are not ok and exhausting myself doing the spiritual new age circuit looking for the answer.

    Ahh yes and then we find Serge. As you say presenting and reminding us of the truth of who we are – no nonsense, no fluff or pandering promotions, just the truth for us to take or leave. How could you ignore it and leave it when you know inside it’s real. I know how my life has changed since I came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine presentations. The search is over as it is here right now (as it always has been) for us all. Awesome.

  156. Beautiful Bina, the power of your truth and love shines through. You have and continue to inspire so many people through your complete honesty and dedication to what you feel and know is Truth. And you are absolutely correct, “Serge Benhayon is Pukka” and so are You. Thank you for all your love.

  157. Brilliant blog. Thank you Bina. I can so relate – having trod the spiritual path for 25+ years in my 30s, 40s and 50s – and not truly healing until I came across Universal medicine via Chris James. Very inspiring to see the changes you – and many of us – have been making.

  158. If only one person walks away from meeting another and can achieve all you have achieved Bina I would say this person is amazing and inspiring, but I know it is not just you that has walked away from meeting Serge and feeling this – so I am left speechless and humbled. Thank you Serge Benhayon for reintroducing me to me.

  159. Wow Bina your life is a testimony to ‘The Livingness’ and I am moved to say that you too are ‘Pukka’. Thank you for sharing your story it has inspired me to move through similar issues in my life.
