White Cloud philosophy

 

As Human Beings we are born into a world based

on an exchange of habitual  patterns 

 emotions, rituals and beliefs that we are taugth,

eventually absorb and act out.

These patterns define our personality and relationship

to the external world - how we interpret and how we

perform the interpretation.

They can be recognized in our movements,

emotions and thoughts.

We take them to be our real and only self.

 

Because we are not subtle or conscious enough

to feel our subjective mechanical performance

of these patterns - misunderstanding, confused thinking,

 strong emotion, ignorance along with a sense of

separateness, loneliness and emptiness

can be the result.

 

We believe that one is equipped with an

innate objective consciousness that

given the right recognition,

support and conditions, can strengthen itself

to a point of realizing that the manifest patterns

do not represent our Real or Essential Being.

 

 WHITE CLOUD SANCTUARY STRIVES TO PROVIDE  A SETTING WHICH

WILL ALLOW YOU TO TAKE TIME TO EXPLORE THIS PROCESS OF

MECHANIZATION UNDERLYING PERSONALITY.

 

We give support and guidance through retreats

to reinforce the development of your objective self,

provide informational tools oriented toward clarity

of the mechanical play, helping you to create a shift

in your perception of your patterns and allowing

for the possibility of change.

All the various Practices we offer serve this purpose.

I came to The White Cloud after a series of breakthroughs in meditation. After 33 years of practice I finally had found the level of connection & alignment to Source which I knew to be true if only a beginning still!

My teachers were presenting me with a challenge to begin to teach some of what I had learned yet most times when I got up from meditating – I left the experience – couldn’t stay with it, got caught up in externals and tripped up- finding myself flat on my face- frequently literally and figuratively- and this didn’t bide well for me as a teacher!

 I knew I needed training in staying connected as I moved through my waking hours, I hoped Tai Chi or ChiGong would helped me.

 Meeting Gailon and the staff here was such a wonderful surprise- to find that above all- he could hold that Space- in Essence, Source, 1st Cause (whatever you might call it- it was the place I had spent so many years trying to reach- but couldn’t hold). And in that Space he would open his eyes, connect, move, communicate, and with some assistance I could join him there.

 I have met several in this life who were called Master  and read the works & stories of many Masters, yet in 33 years or so, since first learning to meditate and see light, I have never met a Master Teacher, in a body, who could sit in that light and teach. Gailon is one of these, and we are lucky to have him here with us, his teachings are delivered from Essence with real Intelligence, Richness and integrity. I am grateful and hope to return soon.
