Following his statement on the presentation below, you will find recordings of Atum O'Kane speaking in Petaluma CA at the 2013 International Gathering of the Spiritual Guidance Community. . .

‘Are you willing to be the object of God's desire?’ – Meister Eckhart.

As I began to consider my presentation at our 2013 International Gathering, a dream arose that culminated in the words of Meister Eckhart. When I fully awoke, it was clear the themes would relate to the emergence of the spiritual guidance community to his quote.

We have been called, we responded, we have come together and we have actualized God's or the Universe's desires. Over the past twenty five years, a school and a community has been created that did not exist before. As I reflected upon this miracle, it became obvious that the seed of God's or the soul of humanity's desire began to unfold long before the conscious idea of a spiritual guidance training took form.

My talk tells our story, according to my present understanding, and it offers reflections on how this divine intention is continuing to unfold.

In deep gratitude for our sharing as co-creators,

Atum
