The Background

Ariadne’s Thread refers to Greek Mythology:

ariadne-theseus.jpg


Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos of Crete and his wife Pasiphae. By her mother, she was the granddaughter of the sun god Helios. 

She is best known for her pivotal role in the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. According to the myth, King Minos' son died during some games that were organised in Athens. In retribution, the King of Crete attacked Athens and won. He then imposed a heavy burden on the city; he demanded that seven young men and seven young women be sent to Crete every year in order to be sent for sacrifice into the Labyrinth underneath Minos' palace, where the Minotaur dwelt. theseus-and-ariadne-at-the-entrance-of-the-labyrinth.jpg

The Minotaur was a half-bull, half-human creature that was born from the union of Pasiphae with a bull. One year, when the fourteen young people of Athens were about to be sent to Crete, Theseus, son of King Aegeus of Athens, volunteered to be sent in order to kill the Minotaur and end the sacrifices for good.

When they arrived in Crete, Ariadne fell in love with Theseus and decided to help him in his quest. She gave him a sword to fight the Minotaur, as well as a ball of thread; she advised him to tie one end near the entrance of the labyrinth and let the thread unroll as he delves deeper into the twisting and branching paths. When Theseus found the Minotaur, he managed to slay him, and then followed the thread back to the entrance, where Ariadne was waiting. She then eloped with him on his way back to Athens.

Course Description

For most people drawn to this kind of work there is a recognition (however subtle or obvious) that they are here, on earth at this time, to do something.

In general, it could be described as bridging worlds or you could say transcending duality. To continue with the metaphor of bridging worlds, eventually, it’s to the degree that the bridge dissolves and so do the two worlds, leaving one space where we have moved beyond concepts and perceptions of right/wrong, good/bad, superior/inferior, light/dark and me/other - instead, we see and accept the place of each in the other.

The labyrinth that  Ariadne’s Thread leads you out of, is the labyrinth that has kept separation in place. Within the microcosm of ourselves, this is the separation between our conscious and what is called sub- or unconscious.  This includes the hidden passages, loops and dead ends that exist in our minds that work to keep this separation in place.

This journey will take you through the fine workings of the holographic nature of your consciousness to understand the holographic nature of consciousness as a whole.

Ariadne's Thread provides you with a manual that explains how all these mechanisms work so that you can see more of yourself for yourself -  the extraordinary you, who chose to plonk yourself deep into the middle of the labyrinth in this lifetime to see if you could find your way out!

Our thread is made of two strands -

  1. 40 Verses from Ramana Maharshi summarising his teachings on liberation from the (small) self and unity consciousness

    and

  2. Previously unpublished, ‘The Laws of Thinking’ by Sam Kogan, edited and revised by Helen Kogan, describing the 39 mechanisms of the mind - how an individuals hologram of consciousness works across all areas of their life

Participants need to be familiar with the material in The Science Of Acting and Why We Think The Way We Do And How To Change It.

Both books will need to be on hand throughout the course.

This course is ideal for people working closely with others in guidance and transformational work because once you know the way out, you want to share more of it with others, who are interested in finding it for themselves.

For those wanting to do this course purely for self-development, it will provide you with greater understanding and compassion for all human beings, each doing their best to navigate their way through this same labyrinth.

Course Outline

  • A fully supportive 21-month program

  • Prior to the fortnightly subjects: Introductory Call - Outlining aims, current life situation, how the weeks ahead will proceed

  • Each fortnight for 19.5 months: Week One - A 90-minute call to discuss one element of each of the two source materials

  • Each fortnight for 19.5 months: Week Two - An email update and one integrative meditation (IM) created by the client - and any necessary further follow up

  • Six x 2-hour Shamanic Sessions spread over 22 month

  • End of the course: Course conclusion, consolidation call and IM

What’s the difference between an integrative meditation (IM) and an energetic attunement (EA)

EAs are designed by the consultant. They are 50-minutes that are agreed to by the participant to support their connection to their higher-self or higher-knowing and to help process information that was discussed on a recent call. Calls and conversations can come and go, the extra 50-minutes for the EA(s) is a personal commitment, by the client, to explore the subjects further and allow energetic upgrades and recalibration - to get the most from the discussion and experience.

Ariadne’s Thread is an advanced course and as such the responsibility for the IMs is placed in the clients’ hands. The materials studied in this course are of varying frequencies and require time to be with, as the lower mind (thoughts, emotions and behaviours) adjusts to these new ways of seeing the world.

IMs encourage the client to take some meditative time out to be with the information for personal integration.  
This is discussed further in our first call.
