Universal Medicine Retreat… Growing WINGS without RED BULL’

By Haresh Ashara, 39, Brisbane, Australia

It was TIME: enough with holding back and getting lost in the conundrum of justifying monies spent in investing in my body.

“Either way this body is going to die”: I had a choice to make to either live with diseases, aches or pain (which was inevitable with the way I had been living – when nothing had worked in the PAST). Or, I could try something new… 

It was time to ditch the voices that forced me to find rationale – but did not have the answer to why I felt JOY, Harmony and Love every time I had a session or attended a workshop with Universal Medicine.

Common Sense, huh? Doing the same thing in the same way will deliver the same results. It was time to try something new, and jump into that which had a proven track record of feeling joyful. It was a time to invest in something big.

The Universal Medicine Retreat in Vietnam was my first step. The moment I walked into the hotel room and opened the balcony, I felt at home. The view, the smell in the air, those trees, that buzzing noise brought back cosy feelings of my HOME. My body felt right at home and my feet found bounce.

Five days in and the retreat felt like being in heaven and felt like a confirmation with a big stamp “WELCOME back HOME”. WOW!

The HARMONY, The JOY, The brotherhood, The feeling of oneness, The all – inclusive men’s circle – Knights of Hoi-An. I was loved and loved and loved – it reminded me of just how Lovable and Amazing I am.

Finding love and support within, this chrysalis broke the shell and grew wings. I swear by my wings that I didn’t drink RED BULL. Not even Sugar. And yet, it felt like the most natural thing I know – no high, but a true reminder of what I can live each day.

On the last day, at the celebration dance, my body just knew how to move. The mind had a shocked expression on its face with the way the body was moving. It was moving with the divine rhythm and connection. My body became completely fluid. I’ve never danced that long with joy. This was my first time that I really enjoyed it.

I now know who I am – I am much greater, and more love than I imagined.

And, yes, I do have wings, not like red bull, but those of a Son of God – who chooses not to fly, but to walk firmly and lovingly on this Earth.

Inspired by the work of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine

  1. Yes.. every retreat I learn something new about who I am, how I relate to the world, and learn tools and techniques that help one to be in the world, and in relationships, and respond instead of react to what goes on around us. It’s not rocket science stuff but super simple, practical and applicable to everyday living.

  2. The time at Universal Medicine retreat feels very special, but what they are presenting is a version of normal that we can all adopt and make it our every day.

  3. In life, we get to those points where all we can get is more of the same. It is only when we feel this that we open up to new things and those may well change our lives.

  4. It is utterly ridiculous we need a sugar hit to get through the day when our body naturally has all the energy we need and more to live life in full if we do not abuse it and instead shower it with love and care.

  5. We might use drugs or alcohol to have good night out and dance but nothing is as amazingly beautiful as connecting to our soul and live from that. The latter gives a feeling in the body that no other stimulant can do, it is a deep satisfaction of coming home, feeling totally ourselves and feeling purely divine.

  6. The Universal Medicine Retreats are a treat that keep on supporting long after the hotel room door has been closed. See you next year.

  7. We have to get our brains out of the way and let our bodies do the education, as our bodies are connected to the source of where we come from. They are so much more connected to that than our brains which are the receivers and processors of information and can therefore misinterpret or re-interpret the communication.

  8. “Doing the same thing in the same way will deliver the same results.” And history keeps showing us that this is true and what we are doing is not working. This is reflected in the increase in illness, disease, social unrest and violence, etc. It is most definitely time to do some different and Serge Benhayon is showing a different way.

  9. I am with you Haresh that The Way of The Livingness feels utterly natural for my body and being to live, as in connection to the truth that we are the Sons of God we are free to live all that we are here to be, with every step grounding the divine.

  10. Joy is innate and spreads its wings when in the company of others, no bull and no Red Bull.

  11. Yes it is wonderful to have that marker of Joy, Harmony and Love in the body and the experience that there is a whole other way to live. It is even more wonderful when we start to make that way our everyday normal 🙂

    1. Oh yes Nicola it sure is. There is no way I now would ever consider trying to live another way. Besides, my body and being knows precisely where the love, joy, harmony and freedom is at and I now know there is no joy in resisting that.

      1. Carola my body experiences immense love, joy and harmony in listening to your music and Divine voice.

  12. Love gives me wings! Haha whilst playful it is true. No need for a sugar hit to get you started in the day when Love is made as your way.

  13. I’ve not yet been to Vietnam for a retreat but I certainly been to Vietnam and other retreats. Vietnam is an amazing place and Hoi An was my favourite place for some unknown reason and this was 20 years ago. The sense of union was felt within the community, a beautiful place.

    These retreats are like no other, every time I come away, I am more me with out the excess baggage I’ve been carrying around for centuries. The feeling of togetherness is amazing unlike any other gatherings often alcohol fuelled.

    Irrespective of which Universal Medicine retreat you attend they bring the real you back home – just A-mazing.

  14. What I love about this blog is it’s unfettered expression of joy. This is one man who’s not holding back how he feels and it’s quite beautiful and delightful to see and feel. Thank you Haresh, you’re blazing a new kind of trail!

  15. Not only is Universal Medicine about life without Red Bull, it’s resoundingly ‘no bull’! For me it’s been not only a joy but the common sense, recipe-for-life miracle I’d been looking for.

    1. ha ha yes, there is no space for bull in the Way of the Livingness, it is about honesty and blunt raw honesty, not the suitable truth we can convince ourselves is truth.

  16. It’s refreshing to see people appreciate something they have seen or become re aware of. Why are we so critical of ourselves and each other a large portion of the time? Why is it more often then not we will first find a fault in what someone is saying or doing then simply appreciate them not matter what is being said. Regardless of what I may think at times it’s great to simply and truly appreciate people not for what they do or have done but just for being who they already are. We are all looking for the same thing in different ways and appreciation will support us all to see it sooner.

  17. “I now know who I am – I am much greater, and more love than I imagined.” A priceless investment in yourself that keeps on growing.

  18. No need for red bull when you already have wings to fly through life. Everyone is capable of immense potential and we certainly don’t need sugar to give us the energy to live it as in itself by allowing it to be it is very invigorating.

  19. What an exquisite expression of the love that you are, shouted out for all the world to see.

  20. The Universal Medicine retreats are an amazing experience, they are life changing but not in a rah-rah kind of way, but by offering a deeper connection to our own beings, and to the truth of our place in the universe and how to live in connection to that. They are a form of universal medicine!

  21. I also love that line as well Jill – there is so much power and beauty felt when we live and walk everyday knowing we are a Son of God.

  22. Haresh your beautiful description of the Retreat in Vietnam is inspiring me to attend next year, we all have the potential to grow our own wings with the amazing support of Serge Benhayon and Natalie Benhayon and all the gold that these Retreats consistently offer us.

  23. We tend to settle for something that brings us a state that we find satisfactory (in relative terms) until we come across something that brings a state of wellbeing we did not even knew that was possible. Business as usual is no longer possible afterwards.

  24. I get a great feeling just reading these inspiring words Haresh and at the same time I appreciate all the superlatives in the world convey only a fraction of what is felt at a Universal Medicine Retreat?

  25. I love the conundrum of feeling like you are flying, but doing so in a way where I feel solid, both feet on the ground, no hype. That is a sustainable joy that is deep and precious – to be savoured and built upon.

  26. I loved your sharing of so much joy and appreciation for your experience at the Universal Medicine Retreat, I have felt this when I have attended past retreats, they have been totally inspiring and so joy-filled, a taste of heaven on earth.

  27. Haresh you have so beautifully captured what I too felt when I attended the Vietnam Retreat. I walked in one immense joy filled body for those days. Creating a new marker for what was possible in my everyday if I chose to stay with those movements.

  28. So cool, made me smile, made me want to finally invest in a Vietnam Retreat, well maybe a few more years as I have 5 children to organise, once they are older, they will be exited to have the house to themselves but for now, you have inspired me and excited me about the day I will invest and how much I will love it when that day comes, thank you.

  29. Haresh, your sharing here is an absolute Joy to read. Having attended these events myself, I absolutely resonate with the power that they hold, and just what is on offer here for us all to re-connect to the truth of who we are – the soul-full being of Love, that deserves to walk this planet in all of his or her own glory.
    I trust that this expansion has never left you since…

  30. Oh you inspire me to want to go to one of these retreats in Vietnam! It has been one of my goals but I never seem to make it! I can feel the depth of joy and the lightness in your body, there is no sugar high or caffeine hit to give you this, it is clearly true vitality. Goodness, how would we not be inspired by this?!

    1. Lucy, the Universal Medicine Retreats in Vietnam are amazing events – the presentations by Serge Benhayon, Natalie Benhayon and other guests offering the deepest inspiration for the true living of life that I know, and the place offering its own particular magic that allows one the opportunity to light up from the core of one’s being, and expand… as Haresh has so powerfully shared here.
      There is definitely something special about Hoi An in Vietnam, that allows one’s body and being to let go – a tension usually felt in everyday life in Australia (as astute as we may be…) drops away…

  31. I have never drank Red Bull but I can totally relate to what you are sharing Haresh. The Universal Medicine Retreats are incredible, every time I attend one I feel I am absolutely ready to be more loving, more joyful and more playful, and ready to embrace life. Every experience supports me to deepen my relationship with myself, with God and people around me. It is very, very supportive for anyone and everyone.

    1. I love what Haresh is saying about the evidence of what’s good for us is in how we feel, especially within our body and even in how we move, as well as the qualities we can reconnect to inside of ourselves like joy and love. All of this beauty is definitely our home; it starts from our heart and spreads outward! And, I agree, who wouldn’t what to invest in more of that through everything that Universal Medicine offers?

  32. More Joy, more Love, more Harmony, more Stillness and a lot more Truth; are all needed on earth now! Lucky they are all the qualities we naturally and divinely bring by virtue of being universal beings. So.. what to do? Live it in every step and make a mark to inspire others.

  33. It is interesting that today we as a humanity rely on so many artificial substances to keep us going because we have stepped away from ourselves and a simple way of living.

    1. So true Kristy, and that is because it requires more energy to live disconnected from our essence. Once we choose to reconnect to our essence and live love, joy and harmony consistently we will have more energy than we need and naturally this would then start to feed back to humanity bringing healing to earth.

  34. I love how you express it Haresh, that you have wings with which you choose to walk firmly and lovingly on earth. We all do and as we learn to live with those wings it brings a whole other level of lightness to living and being here, being all we are. Thank you for sharing as you have, I beamed reading it today.

  35. ‘And, yes, I do have wings, not like red bull, but those of a Son of God – who chooses not to fly, but to walk firmly and lovingly on this Earth.’ And with every step you take you are blessing the earth, confirming yourself and others it is possible to live the love that you are, beautiful Haresh.

  36. Beautiful Haresh, we are all connected in a beautiful way and know what is needed to bring us back, sometimes it is a session or a commitment to go on a retreat and feel how it is to live our life without the burden of our own protections loving and being loved.

  37. Very cool Haresh. I love your openness to ditching past choices and giving something new a go. And it’s fair to say you picked something both out of the ordinary and extraordinary at the same time!

  38. Coming up to the UK retreat this is a real joy to read. That so many meet to reconnect and confirm we are all here to support ourselves and one another to evolve is divinely beautiful. All my choices to the contrary can just drop away as I choose love once again.

  39. I had a similar experience too Haresh, on the celebration night of the retreat I attended, there was so much joy and love in my body – I felt amazing. I was strongly connected to myself and the flow on from that was being so connected to others and so much love for my fellow brothers and sisters. I had only experienced a night out like that before, under the influences of alcohol and drugs. That night of the retreat I was being me, all of me, sober and in bed by 9pm! It was completely amazing – a strong marker in my body to know what is possible.

  40. I found that the voice in my head had too many negative thoughts and that I would convince myself that I was far lesser than I actually was. Through Universal Medicine, I have reconnected to my essence from within, and it is far more powerful than the voice I used to allow to guide me.

  41. If we all ‘walked firmly and lovingly on earth’ and we all moved with the same flow and grace, the world would look and feel very very different to what it does today.

  42. Since we tend not to register how our movement affects us, we hold no record of how many collision courses we have set in. Some are more immediate and obvious. Others are more long term ones. To be able to understand that our movement has consequences that will happen sooner or later and that we can avoid them by changing our movements is nothing short of fantastic. This is the kind of insights we get from Universal Medicine, in addition to the practicalities of what does this means.

  43. “And, yes, I do have wings, not like red bull, but those of a Son of God – who chooses not to fly, but to walk firmly and lovingly on this Earth.” – Love this Haresh! ‘Wings’ of presence not of escape, beautiful.

  44. “It was time to try something new, and jump into that which had a proven track record of feeling joyful.” This sentence, I can’t help but smile. Just as we can dive head first into projects, missions or even drama’s and suffering I ask myself now “What if I dived in head first into all the ways of life that bring me joy?” Theres no resistance from my body thats for sure and any that does come up I know cannot be coming from my body. Thank you Haresh.

  45. Oh I love this – and boy oh boy is it a call to go to a retreat! Thank you – I feel like I smelt the air you smelt! What I also deeply appreciate is when people come back from these retreats and share, those who did not go to them can feel all you unfolded in yourself come through your writing and we are all blessed. A call to go ourselves.

  46. When we live in divine connection with ourselves and everyone else there is no sugar or food that could replace this joyful feeling.

  47. I loved what you shared so beautifully Haresh, I too love the joy harmony and heavenly love that I have felt at the Universal Medicine retreats, a deep sense of brotherhood amongst so many people.

  48. Haresh, I just relived my first retreat in Vietnam. It gave me an incredible marker for how I can live each day in incredible connection with myself and the all.

  49. Love what you have shared Haresh as you have expressed so beautifully how natural it feels when we choose to live in connection to who we are, to our Soul. As Sons of Gods here on earth this is our true way of being, living the oneness of the light that we are, here to shine and magnify this love through the everyday lives we live.

  50. “I now know who I am – I am much greater, and more love than I imagined.” Now this is True Love – the love that we are all seeking.

  51. So beautiful to read Haresh of the deep joy you found within and the absolute love that you are, that we all are as sons of God.

  52. Haresh,
    An absolute game changer if we continue the do things as we have always done them, nothing changes, but if we choose to change even the slightest in how we move our body, everything changes. The beauty in your sharing is that we do have choice, as you have offered, a choice to continue with old patterns, or not.

  53. Such a pleasure to read. The investment in something that enables you to find this place within yourself is beyond priceless and what the mind can ever find rationale for… but the heart and body can’t but know as truth.

  54. The choice to walk lovingly and firmly on this Earth is a beautiful one. It does give a sense of having wings as there is true freedom in this choice.

  55. Thank you Haresh. I have just been part of the 2016 Universal Medicine Retreat in the UK and am deeply inspired by all that was shared to feel an ever deepening commitment to the purpose of life and to live love in every movement and moment.

  56. Reading this Haresh brings a smile to my face, there is so much joy and love at the Universal Medicine Retreats that is experienced by everyone – no need for sugar or stimulants when we say yes to this true love and brotherhood.

  57. Thank you Haresh, beautiful appreciation and celebration in this blog, coming up to the 2016 Vietnam retreat! No coincidence I found this blog on the eve of my first Vietnam retreat! The words, I was loved and loved and loved and being at home, are well received. Wings ready to be expand…

  58. Thank you for sharing Haresh. It’s beautiful to feel the joy of your experience of the Universal Medicine retreat. These events are truly life changing and evolutionary.

  59. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I went to my first retreat. Five days seemed an awful long time … but I was extremely surprised when the time flew by and each day felt like a huge life lesson just on its own, let alone when everything was combined. People not connected to Universal Medicine couldn’t understand how I could be bouncing with energy at the end of this time and not exhausted. Thanks Haresh – your description gives such a beautiful summary of your experiences.

  60. I love this Haresh…”Doing the same thing in the same way will deliver the same results. It was time to try something new, and jump into that which had a proven track record of feeling joyful. It was a time to invest in something big.” Well done!

  61. I have also found the Universal Medicine retreats to be profound in what they present and the opportunity they offer all who attend to feel and choose a deeper level of truth and love in their lives. Over the 5 days you get a taste of what it would be like if you really said ‘yes’ to your own glory, then at the end you are left with a choice to take as much or as little of that out into the world with you as you return to your day-to-day life.

  62. Thanks Haresh, this is a beautiful sharing and one I can relate to very much. The Universal Medicine Retreats are like nothing else I have ever attended, offering the opportunity for profound insights, growth and connection with myself and with others. I feel as though I spend the rest of the year processing and integrating what has been presented, ready for the next one. And after each year, I wonder what on earth could Serge Benhayon possibly present on that would be more profound, more relevant and more life-changing than the previous year… but after 7 years attending… he does it, effortlessly, self-lessly and as profoundly each and every time. It is one thing on my calendar that is NEVER to be missed.

  63. ‘I now know who I am – I am much greater, and more love than I imagined.’ What a beautiful confirmation of the transformative effect of attending a Universal Medicine retreat. Thank you for sharing Haresh.

  64. ‘Doing the same thing in the same way will deliver the same results’. Change is an essential ingredient to develop ourselves as human beings and as we grow and embrace this ever evolving learning process and initiate these necessary changes in our daily lives, you can indeed feel like you have wings.

  65. Love it Haresh “my feet found bounce” what a joyful expression. The Universal Medicine retreats are an awesome experience because they allow us to feel our amazingness and true glory and once we reconnect back to that there’s no more turning our backs on ourselves or living in denial of our light and love.

  66. Universal Medicine Retreats always give me that ‘true reminder of what I can live each day’. They are deeply inspiring, bringing a level of truth and wisdom that sets the bar for personal evolution and change.

  67. “Doing the same thing the same way gets the same results”.. How many of us know of the issues around us but actually get comfortable in the same routines each day to be stuck and cemented in them and resisting the opportunity to change and support where we may be truly needed?

  68. Haresh thank you for sharing your experience as it’s a gorgeous reminder that we all have wings of love that don’t need to be fueled by red bull as its naturally who we are!

  69. Beautiful and joyful expression Haresh. Coming home to ‘Love’ brings a ‘Rush’ like no other. Thank you for sharing.

  70. Such a beautiful confirmation of a loving investment in yourself and glorious reawakening to the divinity you are from. Truly gorgeous to read.

  71. What a great choice you made to try something new. I found for myself that I can complain about how I feel and how things are but that I am not always as open to truly change the way I am doing things. Even though I know that would be truly supportive! That said, I am learning more and more to not resist the changes and allow more joy, love and fun into my life.

  72. Nice Haresh. Beautifull expressed and claimed in the love you felt at the Universal Medicine retreat.

  73. It is beautiful to read of your experience Haresh at the Vietnam Retreat and the love you felt within and around you – your wings are certainly growing and expanding with the loving choices you are making.

  74. This is a moment of appreciation for us all Haresh. We chose not to fly and now take choices to wake up and to start walking “firmly and lovingly on this Earth.” Some might be disturbed in their sleep by that firm walk though, but that’s something we all have to deal with!

  75. Lovely Haresh, I had the same experience like you. For me this year was the first time I was in Vietnam and as you wrote so beautifully: “Five days in and the retreat felt like being in heaven and felt like a confirmation with a big stamp “WELCOME back HOME”. I could not describe it better.

  76. Dear Haresh, I think this is the most beautiful blog I have ever read – feeling you coming back to you, opening your wings and walking with the tender love you are.

    1. judykarenyoung, I feel the beauty of this blog too. Haresh is letting us all in, so open and loving in his descriptions especially this “On the last day, at the celebration dance, my body just knew how to move. The mind had a shocked expression on its face with the way the body was moving. It was moving with the divine rhythm and connection. My body became completely fluid. I’ve never danced that long with joy. This was my first time that I really enjoyed it.” I love this description of his experience. So detailed and deeply felt, it emanates so much joy and playfulness. Haresh you grow younger and more playful with each day!

  77. What an awesome commitment you have made Haresh investing in your great asset – you! So lovely to feel that you feel at home once more.

  78. Make a choice, get a certain outcome, repeat that choice, get same outcome. The more loving choices we repeat the more love we feel. Makes sense to me.

    1. Yes Leigh my body certainly thanks me for the fact that I am starting to consistently make more loving choices and that I am more open to feeling the consequences when I don’t.

    2. So simple Leigh, and so true, just as we make the same choice of sabotaging ourselves each time, and end up sabotaged, and lesser. So too if we consistently make the choice of love in each moment then greater love is there to be lived every day.

  79. A beautiful and inspiring claiming Haresh of the immense divine love that we are as equal Sons of God. I can absolutely feel ‘The HARMONY, The JOY, The brotherhood, The feeling of oneness, The all’ – through your words as you shared your experience of The Way of the Livingness retreat. Thank you for this powerful reflection of the glory that can be lived and shared every day, that there is indeed another way.

  80. Amazing Haresh, thanks for sharing your truth and your experience at the retreat. It’s true, we shouldn’t have to justify why we make choices that support our body, we should just make them because of the simple reason that they work and are consistent, and we feel joy in our bodies when we have invested wisely and looked after it.

  81. A beautiful confirmation of how amazing the rtreats that Univerisal Medicine and Serge Benhayon present annually are. I have been attending the retreats for several years now and being with other Universal Medicine students during these five days and attending the awesome presentations that allow the opportunity to give a deeper understanding on how to live in a more harmonious way with everyone and everything, is the best investment I could ever make, not only for myself, but also how I can take that into my everyday life and with everyone I meet. Every workshop, retreat or event put on by Universal Medicine presents us with an opportunity to choose a more joy-full and responsible way of living.

  82. A beautiful confirmation of what occurs when attending any event hosted by Universal Medicine and/or when listening to any audio from Serge Benhayon. It all truly is a little slice of Heaven here on Earth. Thank you Haresh for reminding me of where ‘true home’ is and to whom that shines the light to get there.

    1. A slice of Heaven it is Andrew and we know we are part of this as it is so deliberating to be able to let go of all that does not belong to Heaven.

  83. Haresh I have yet to experience the Vietnam retreat but reading your blog already gives me a feeling of lightness and brotherhood. Thank you.

  84. I make sure to not miss the annual Universal Medicine Retreats. For the last 8 years they have been life changing and an absolute joy on so many levels. Being with 300+ people in joy and harmony for 5 days has shown me what is possible in a community.

  85. Haresh I am hearing and feeling you. I am so glad you chose to attend Universal medicine. You are a blessing to you and us all.

  86. Gosh I love the last paragraph Haresh. The whole thing was so beautiful to read. I havn’t been to a retreat in Vietnam but am so looking forward to it now. So often a new place has felt like home to me and I can feel the love of the place and how I am within the place is what makes it home.

  87. Thanks Haresh for such a joy filled, uplifting blog reminding me of just how wonderful we all are and how when we each shine in our own unique ways, we lift and inspire others accordingly.

  88. Reading your blog, Haresh, has brought back very fond memories of Universal Medicine Retreats in Vietnam. Thank you for sharing.

  89. Very true Haresh, doing the same things in the same way delivers the same results. The great thing I love about the retreats is that they offer five days of adjusting my rhythm, my quality and my focus, while learning heaps and having an amazing time with truly great people. Those retreats are a life changer every time I attend, and the extra bonus is watching a group of approx 150 people change before my eyes.

    1. “… doing the same things in the same way delivers the same results…”
      If we apply this to life, we realize how much power we have over everything that happens to us. Great you have highlighted this here again Carolien Braakenburg.

      1. Judith your comment brought me back to my own comment and in rereading this sentence I realised just how regularly I still make the same choices and then am frustrated about myself for being in the same place with a certain issue or topic. It is a great reminder that in every moment we can make a different choice, right here right now.

    2. I agree Carolien, one of the greatest joys is watching people transform each year into a more true and natural way of being themselves, just as I am feeling more comfortable in my own skin and able to live much more freely than ever before.

      1. Annie, I have just finished a couple of courses with Universal Medicine in the UK and I can only reinforce what you have said once more. It is amazing to see how each and every time people open up more and more, how the warmth and intimacy grows, the sense of true brotherhood developing, how we work together, and how much love is shared. I felt again so blessed to be part of this but then realised this is my life because I made the choices to get me here.

  90. Beautiful account of unfolding back again towards the Truth within Haresh, your descriptions of Vietnam, its people and the Universal Medicine Retreat so touching. When we discover enormity, staying small is only compromise.

  91. Thank you Haresh, this is an awesome sharing! I too have found the Universal Medicine Retreats very profound and life changing events in my life,allowing me every time to discover more of the love that I am.

  92. It is lovely to feel supported and loved equally amongst friends and family.

  93. Beautiful blog Haresh and I agree in full the Universal Medicine Retreats are a true support. In fact I have found that ANYTHING Universal Medicine offers is a true support for all and comes from a place that respects that we are all equally the Sons of God and forever connected.

  94. Just beautiful Haresh. Thank you for putting into words and expression the absolute Joy and Love felt by attending Universal Medicine Retreats. I couldn’t agree more.

  95. Beautiful Haresh, I too have found Universal Medicines retreats a great example how I can expand, feel and live every single day, if I simply choose to feel what is coming up for me to feel, be open to expanding within and connecting to myself and others with complete openness and honesty. I agree the retreats are the best investment one can make towards themselves and when we start to add up all the money we spend throughout the year on things that actually harm our bodies, the retreat is dirt cheap in comparison. Best money I have ever spent.

  96. Thank you Haresh, I agree that Universal Medicine Retreats and workshops, as presented by Serge Benhayon, inspire me to a place that has made me feel like I am at home, within myself.

  97. Wow what a sharing Haresh , that beautiful feeling of coming back home to that naturalness, brotherhood, love and joy that we are and walking that through a day in a lightness of being with wings, not needing anything else but who we are.

    1. I agree Paul Moses, that is an incredible feeling and it is, as Haresh is sharing, a consistent experience during and after Universal Medicine events for me as well and is becoming more and more part of my everyday life.

  98. I have found the Universal Medicine retreats to be amazingly supportive. Each year I attend there is a new revelation or deeper understanding of who I am and connection to myself.

    1. Yes Lee, and they are getting stronger with each year. Haresh’s joy is getting more and more infectious. Serge is making a huge difference every year.

    2. Me too Lee, every time I attend I would feel like – ‘well I’ve just been given EVERYTHING – what more could be needed – they’ve said it all’, and then the following year at the next retreat it happens all over again. But I now understand it is is more where we have unfolded to and the greater understanding we have, that we are able to go deeper each time.

  99. Such a delightful blog Haresh. I too had that “WELCOME back HOME” feeling at my first Universal Medicine workshop and no matter how long the time is between Unimed events, I get the same heart warming feeling when I walk through the door. Now 10 years later, like you “I now know who I am – I am much greater, and more love than I imagined.”. And that feels amazing!

  100. Haresh, every retreat is as you have described it. Nothing less than heaven on earth and true brotherhood.

  101. Well it’s been a couple of years since you found your wings at Vietnam and wrote this bright and joyous blog. Would love to know whether you are still walking firmly on the Earth and using those wings to fly too.

  102. Haresh, thank you. I too had that welcome back home feeling with Universal Medicine. I am now feeling more the love and joy that I am. I love how you say you do have wings but walk firmly and lovingly on this Earth.

  103. Haresh, this was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes. Your joy is so innocent and true – I just know you found you at that retreat – the true you. ‘I was loved and loved and loved’ was my favourite line in your blog – how true is that love when surrounded by ones brothers? As close to heaven on earth as we can get I’d say.

  104. This blog is a joy to read – shaking of the constraints of the mind for an embodied experience of love. I so enjoyed reading about your feet finding bounce.

  105. I enjoyed reading and feeling Haresh’s exuberance and claiming of being loved and loving. It is a wonderful to feel like one has come home. I can relate to this many times over at universal events -home is where the heart is!

  106. In a world were by we are told consistently what we “have to be” in order to know who we are, it is such a feeling of relief and joy to know that none of what we have been told is true and all the answers are within us if we are willing to listen

  107. Thanks for sharing your joy and divineness with us Haresh. It’s been my experience too that there is no arguing with the feeling of joy that is naturally within us although the mind tries very hard to convince us otherwise. A big thank you to Universal Medicine for allowing us all to discover where home truly is – deep within us.
