AHAM’s Consciousness
Transforming Support Programs
and Meditation Retreats
Association
in Consciousness (AIC)
Association In Consciousness (AIC) is a weekly
support meeting for all AHAM graduates who are choosing to continue
living AHAM’s Teaching, daily. On Tuesday evenings, all over the
country, AIC groups come together to meditate, watch video programs
and connect twice a month, over the BridgeLine, with the AHAM Center.
This also is a time of special, spiritual fellowship. (Prerequisite:
ISIT)
Area
Coordinator Training (ACT)
We have a weekend training and refesher for
all those AHAM graduates – wherever they may live – who
are taking responsibility for holding and maintaining an Association
In Consciousness (AIC) support group in their area. In
the nurturing Conscious Environment of the AHAM Center, the comprehensive
instruction for new coordinators, plus the Heart-felt support from those
here to assist, and the experience that you take home with you, gives
you all you need to fulfill this important responsibility with ease,
simplicity and creativity. Besides that, you will simply feel great
after this weekend of “Conscious Company.” (Prerequisites:
ISIT and CPP and your commitment to eventually completing all of AHAM’s
Conscious Curriculum when and as you are qualified.)
Sat
Sanga (SS)
A weekend with Ramana in “Conscious Company” or “Keeping
Company with Truth.” Usually we only have one or two interludes
with Ramana in our regular programs. However, Sat Sanga Weekend is full
of his presence and love. This is a time to bask in his presence, and
in the Stillness and Silence of pure Being. All that’s not
That, just melts away in the transforming Presence of this pure Stillness
and Love. Need we say more? (Prerequisites: I SIT, and occasionally public Sat Sanga is available.)
India
Seminar and Pilgrimage (ISP)
Most years, AHAM conducts pilgrimages to India. We stay at our own Arunachala
Ramana AHAM Ashram in Tiruvannamalai, South India, with Ramana.
While there, you will experience the profound Peace, Stillness, Bliss
and Freedom from being in close proximity to the ancient holy hill,
Sri Arunachala, which Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi considered to be
His Guru. A full month is spent in this highly charged spiritual atmosphere,
where in addition to participating in a consciousness transforming program,
you may visit the ashram of Sri Bhagavan, the “birthplace”
of Self-Inquiry. You can also visit several other nearby locations where
He lived and His Presence is still felt, and possibly meet a few Swami
friends of Ramana. (Prerequisite: ISIT and CPP)
Lifetime
Retreat Program (LTR)
Our Lifetime Retreat Program is a one-time
nominal tuition, in which you may enjoy one full week a year in retreat—for
the rest of your life—at the AHAM Center. You may participate
in a personally designed program for establishing and/or reaffirming
your “lifetime conscious-intention.” It is a good time to
check your progress in your transformational process, and simply hang
out in the peaceful Conscious Presence of the AHAM Center. Attend when
it is convenient for you; that is, by pre-set reservation. (Prerequisites:
I SIT and CPP)
Conscious
Parenting, Child Guidance & Family Networking
(CPCG & FN)
Conscious Parenting and Child Guidance (CPCG)
is a program for intentionally interacting with and guiding children
in your care consciously, or from the Heart or true Self. It is open
to parents as well as non-parents whose lives involve guiding children.
As part of this special program, the Family Networking weekend (the
following month) is a required follow-up program where you share and
receive feedback on your use and experience of the Conscious Child Guidance
processes. Family Networking weekend is where parents (who have already
attended CPCG), bring their children to a weekend of enjoyable group
relationship, and Heart to Heart interaction between adults and children.
(Prerequisite: ISIT and CPP)
