.9-Day Retreat – March 7 to 16, 2024
~ Whole Being Soul Realization: Living Awake as Fire of Life ~
Description:
Awakening and awakened whole being realizers are invited to come together in Thailand to accelerate their evolutionary unfoldment through deep mutual engagement, potent group transmission, and transformative whole being processes.
This will be a mutuality-based, co-created retreat experience in which the collective conscious heart nature of the group will contribute an activating field of expression and creation to evolve the content, focus, and flow of the retreat each day. The retreat’s pre-planned content will be profound and also open to enhancement and adjustment according to the group’s evolving collective conscious awareness.
Large group, small group, dyad, and triad activities led by teachers and mentors will be used to enhance interactions, experiences, and realizations for maximizing evolution for each participant. Regular sharing and processing in small groups facilitated by a teacher and a mentor will offer opportunity for individual exploration of personal life issues, whole being realization processes, and awakened evolution living.
The beautiful tropical environment and the planned schedule will provide the basis for a deep personal retreat. The retreat is being hosted by the Link family in their quiet, treed compound of quality homes: each participant or couple will have a private bedroom and bathroom; swimming is available in the on-site pools or in the warm ocean from the lovely sand beach out front; and delicious meals are provided on the patio framed by palm trees and overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
We will arrive at the retreat facilities the day before the structured retreat program begins to decompress and settle in, and we can choose to enjoy the beach, water and views, go for a Thai massage, or walk in the local area. The structured schedule that begins at dinner the following day, will be spacious to allow relaxation and comfortable personal time; we will have time off one day in the middle of the retreat in which you can participate in group recreation or sightseeing, or take time off to yourself; and we will depart at our ease the morning after the retreat ends.
Our international retreat team of seven seasoned teachers and mentors is very much looking forward to participants joining us in this wonderful event. This retreat offers an advanced opportunity to deepen in the nature of whole-being realization, in a beautiful tropical location, with a group of conscious, loving, embodied beings, in the longest retreat offered in this path. This is an extraordinary opportunity to care for your personal evolution and to contribute to the collective conscious evolution of our whole being realization community.
Theme:
Soul has long been considered in many cultures to be a mystical, other-worldly dimension of the self.
We are now beginning to discover that Whole Being Realization, integrated and well stabilized, is a crucial doorway to realizing the nature of one’s personal soul in the midst of one’s current life.
With Whole Being Realization, the fundamental dimensions of creation become illuminated in our whole being nature as Consciousness, Embodiment, and Mutuality.
This realization brings the end of seeking, either immediately or gradually over time – the end of seeking is the beginning of realizing one’s whole being soul nature.
Through the evolutionary processes of greenlighting, oscillation, and reconfiguration, we can relax into our self ‘as it is’ and find fundamental wholeness clarifying within us as freedom, trust, and love.
Over time we can come to realize our inner core nature is a dynamic trinity, the simultaneity of Consciousness, Being, and Universal Love, emerging in the form of our personal self.
Consciously living as the expression of this dynamic fire of life, brings increasing recognition and experience of living our personal whole being soul nature.
This retreat is designed to support each participant’s individual path of whole being evolution by creating an environment that is supportive of individual and collective awakened insight, inner experience, and loving expression.

5-Day Retreat Extension – March 16 to 21, 2024
~ Whole Being Soul Fulfillment: Living Awake as Sacred Self ~
This special retreat extension offers a profound opportunity to drop deeper into your whole being realization and further realize your singular soul-self nature.
The retreat team will provide fresh insight and activating approaches for tuning into your whole being essence and discovering the sacred nature of your personal self.
Consciously living Awake as Fire of Life provides a natural ground for realizing Source emerging as self, and then simultaneously, realizing Source beyond self.
Holding these two truths of Source as self and Source beyond self, transforms over time into realizing Whole Being Sacred Essence of Creation – Sacred in Form, Sacred as Form and Sacred through Form.
As whole being grace naturally emerges within oneself as cognition, revelation, and inspired expression, we can discover the Sacred nature of Source, the Sacred spark of life, seated in the center of our chest, at the core of our Whole Being Sacred Self Realization.
Living Awake as Sacred Self, we realize the fundamental nature of creation as the Sacred Mystery of Source eternally expressing in, as, and through our Sacred soul nature as Self.
Living this profound realization adds a sense of sacred richness to all of one’s life and offers evolutionary enlivenment for living advanced stages of whole being evolution.
Realization of one’s Sacred Nature is a gift to oneself and to all of life.
Through this retreat extension you will have an opportunity to steep in the enlivenment of the inspired considerations, the personal inner explorations, and the collective heart field, to allow your own nature to become increasingly familiar with the Sacred dimension of life.

Retreat Team
Teachers:
Rod Taylor
ROD TAYLOR is an international teacher of conscious embodied non-dual awakening. He is the orginator of the Whole-Being Evolution Teachings, creator of the Whole-Being Evolution Map, and author of the book New Principles of Awakened Relationship.
For over 45 years he has been teaching spiritual awakening knowledge and techniques to individuals and groups. Since 2007 he has been offering workshops and coaching services as a member of the Trillium Awakening™ Teachers Circle, and since 2019 has also been offering workshops and coachings services as a Whole Being Evolution Guide.
Rod is a member of the Trillium Awakening Visionary Council and a certified Trillium Awakening Whole Being Realization Clarifier. He has a Master of Adult Education degree and post-secondary certification in Conflict Resolution.
Teaching and coaching in the field of whole being realization is Rod’s passion and his joy. He lives with his beloved wife Andrea on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.
Ralf Humphries
RALF HUMPHRIES is a midwife of awakening, supporting individuals in the birthing of their whole being self. In this process, the subtle soul-nature is welcomed into full embodiment and increasing love-expression in the world. Ralf’s postnatal support continues to be valuable as these awakened individuals mature through further evolutionary stages of their whole being unfoldment.
Ralf first intuited a fundamental, irresolvable paradox at the heart of things in his teens. He mapped the contours and evoked the experience of this paradox throughout a distinguished career of transdisciplinary academic research, conference presentations and peer-reviewed publications, which was followed by five years living as a Buddhist monk in a Theravada forest monastery. In 2013, with the support of Trillium Awakening, he was delighted to discover the ever-present paradox of infinite-in-finite at the core of his embodied nature.
In the last eight years, Ralf has worked as a psychotherapy educator and a senior clinician in a residential addiction treatment facility. He currently has a private practice as a therapist, is an interning teacher with Trillium Awakening, and is a Whole-Being Evolution Guide. Ralf lives with his dear one in Melbourne, Australia.
Van Nguyen
VAN NGUYEN has been a teacher of the Trillium Awakening path since 1996 and is a member of the Elders Council of the Trillium Awakening Teachers Circle.
Van contributed to the formulation of the dharma in the early days of this work, as well as helped in the training of new teachers for serving the awakening process of many students who have come into this path over the years. Van is one of the original Whole Being Realization Clarifiers.
Van also has a keen interest and devotion towards the Feminine Face of Supreme Divine Being. As such, using the metaphor of the unified field of Totality being one “Cosmic Body of Existence”, he feels that Radiant Supreme Love is the Heart of the “Body”, the Divine Energy-Current is the primal Energy of the “Body”, and both of these are unified with Transcendental Consciousness, which is the fundamental Ground-field of the “Body”.
After having avidly studied and contemplated the Whole Being Evolution Map, Van found a resonance with it, as well as multiple correlations with his own progressive advancements beyond initial Whole Being Realization.
Van was a holistic dentist in San Francisco for 40 years, and in 2018, he retired from dentistry and now lives near beautiful Sedona, Arizona, with his beloved fiancée, Lynn.
Ardith Dean
ARDITH DEAN: This work has profoundly changed my life.
Sharing this work and the gifts this work can bring, is my passion.
Meeting in mutuality, the way we do, gives me/us an opportunity to Live LOVE FULLY in the moment. However that is showing up for me/us in that moment.
We are Divinely Human, and it is wonderful to drop deep into the reality of our own unique expression of our Divinely Human Self.
Diving deep into our Divinity and diving deeply into our humanness.
YUM!!!!!!

Mentors:
Felix Link
FELIX LINK is a long term participant in Trillium Awakening and now as an experienced mentor he is excited to be of service to you on your journey with Trillium. Born to German parents and having grown up in Thailand, he moved back to Bangkok in 2017 after 12 years or so of being a passionate seeker. He’s lived in Nepal for a couple of years to dive deep with Tibetan Buddhism, a year at a spiritist centre in Brazil, and beyond that has spent years with different paths and various forms of therapy, trying to find what he eventually found with Trillium. Which is to say: much greater well-being, connection and a sense of freedom.
Debbie Amos
DEBBIE AMOS has been actively involved with Trillium Awakening since 2009. Listening to the audiobook of Saniel Bonder’s Waking Down around that time, she immediately recognised an approach that was in alignment with her own felt sense—one that valued the whole person, held space for the transformation that can come with investigation of self and other as well as consciousness, and which recognises them as part of the same whole. Her path with Trillium Awakening lead to a spiritual awakening—but also a personal awakening into a rich fullness of self. Debbie has a Bachelor of Psychology, teaches meditation, mindfulness, and Qigong, and is a Transformational coach. She lives in Melbourne, Australia.
Cory Coops
CORY COOPS has been enthusiastically engaged in Trillium Awakening since 2016. In 2017 he dropped into his initial whole being awakening. This culminated in the recognition that his essential nature is the paradox of infinite consciousness and the complexity of ever evolving human life. As a participant, the deep acceptance, unconditional love and authenticity that is embodied by the Trillium support team inspired him to become a mentor. This has allowed him the joyous (and catalytic) opportunity to support people in their own unique process of self discovery. Cory has over a decade experience of working as a mental health support worker, a bachelor of psychology and is trained in Hakomi; a mindfulness based somatic therapy.
Debbie Bailey
DEBI BAILEY became involved in Waking Down in 2013. She felt as though she had come home to herself in all of her deeply flawed and vulnerable humanity. She continues to deepen in the work of Trillium Awakening, had her WBR in 2015, and became a mentor in 2018. It has been a long journey of learning to deeply embrace the perfect imperfection of being human. The hardest and most challenging experiences in her life are also the ones that have provided the most growth. These experiences also help her to have compassion and understanding rather than judgement, allowing her to listen from a place of open heart to create safe space, deep listening and presence to help others explore what is up for them in this moment.
Sharlotte Eiland
SHARLOTTE EILAND: I think a big strength I can offer is that I’ve looked deeply inside myself, encountered excruciating pain and fears, seen the worst of my survival patterns, and have emerged to feel huge compassion and understanding for myself. I know all my parts are divine, and that all my survival patterns are there to try to help me, no matter how shameful they may feel. I know the incredible healing power of being able to hold myself, and know this to be true not just for myself, but for all of us.
