A Mission Statement
Centre of Life invites participation in a variety of initiatives
the intent of each being cooperation caring and compassion

Two of these initiatives

SUPPORT HARMONIOUS UNFOLDMENT OF UNIQUE LIVING HOMES,
COMMUNITIES AND VILLAGES
NETWORK ASSOCIATES WITH LIVING HOME REQUIREMENTS
LIVING SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION
At the heart of the Living School Way are three principles
3 R’s: REVERENCE RESPONSIBILITY RIGHT ACTION
INDIVIDUALIZED LEARNING
COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION / COMMUNITY SERVICE
Where there are Living Schools
neighborhoods emerge
FREEDOM SISTERS
Freedom Sisters opens an avenue for women and men
who feel ‘called’ along this path to move through homes
as
family members
remaining so long as a greater good is served.
Other ‘visions and dreams’
embraced by Centre of Life include:
Freedom Lights, A Global Village, Visions and Dreams,
and Incidents….’ordinary people having extraordinary experiences’
Participation in these initiatives can be seen as avenues
for greater expression and expansiveness
A Personal Note
I
have at times thought of myself as 'an unknown dervish'. Born to an Austrian
father and a Russian mother I lived in Persia for the first l3 years of my life.
Hence the term Dervish!
Although
not affiliated with any religious order or 'spiritual' path, my passion is in
alignment with that invisible something that gives meaning to my life and the
living of it. I have been known to say that if the pearls on a string each
represent a particular path......my identity, if you will, is with the string
that runs through them.
Since
my early 20's I often sought long periods of isolation quenching what seemed
like a deep thirst for the Beloved or Presence. It was in 1981 during an 11
month isolation retreat in New Zealand when one of the initiatives under the
umbrella of Centre of Life was conceived...Living Schools
Association.
I graduated from California Institute of Integral Studies in l975, and over the
years facilitated a number of "Enlightenment Intensives", Conscious Evolution
study groups and a variety of workshops. As
a holistic psychotherapist
my natural leaning has been of a transpersonal nature.
Embracing
the ever unfolding Centre of Life!
