The Balance Center mens group


The Balance Center is an everchanging manifestation of self actualized evolutionary agents. We each have our own approaches to living which differ according to our typicalities, but we tolerate (and enjoy) each other to accomplish altruistic or mutually beneficial dharma.
For example we have a very informal mens group(there is a womans grouping too!) that has been very supportive and empowering for all of us happy mutant men. We spontaneously lift each other up , help each other with dicipline or focus, or sometimes physical labour is shared. We have also found asocial activities (meditation and etc.) to be a good part of what we do around each other. So our mens group (as yet unnamed) has gelled and has started initiating projects in response to our host society and communities. We have started showing films whose common themes explore the esoteric commonalities between humans behaviors once a month at the Newmarket Public Library. Next we plan to show a film called the red pill. It discusses our modern situation from an evolutionary agents perspective using popular metaphors and novel digital medias.
Next it seems we will be doing something more primitive like a drumming circle. This will most likely be a regular ingredient in our interactions.
We are also planning a wilderness vision quest soon. This is a wilderness initiation, and as such is definitely an ordeal and not a pleasure trip, although the positivity gained from initiation is definitely life changing. This Quest involves fasting in isolation in the wilderness, along with some ritual formed by the intention to die and be reborn(in a transformation process). We will consider facilitating this process with persons who wish to become self initiated(by nature) through the vision quest ceremony.
Facilitation is mainly from sunjye who has been questing shamanically for 24 years and also with other mens group members who are commited to waking up to love enlightenment and divine realisation, as well as complete healing and empowerment. If you want to come along email me excitat23@yahoo.com
