I have always been interested in anything new and ground-breaking. Whether it’s a social, spiritual, or political movement, or a new trend in fashion and music, it doesn’t seem to matter. What attracts me most is the feeling that accompanies any form of change. That feeling that shakes the conventional daily routine of life and forces us to re-evaluate and re-direct the course of our day, or of our lives for that matter. Standing in the present moment, we feel the course of change.

It is in this light I am writing about Vistar Now.

The past year by has been such a time, one of immense change, transition and re-evaluation. In my fellow travelers I have witnessed the kind of maturity which only arises from being tested by the ebb and flow of life by facing the temptations of success, and by staying the course throughout all adversity, with no place to run and no place to hide. The answer has been to consistently coming together and explore the finer vibrations of Collective Consciousness which reveal the heart of Unity and propel us to express It in the world. The worldwide interest in this new form of consciousness has become an area of study for anyone seriously engaged in the shift taking place in human evolution. We, here at Vistar Foundation share this global interest and are excited to offer the fruits of the methodology which we have practiced since the beginning of our formation back in 1994.

Now, more than ever, we feel the need to join the greater movement of those who endeavor to aid in this shift by offering the extraction of our experience which has been distilled over the past decade working in a group setting. Our expertise lies in the refinement of a technology which fosters true communication and uncovers the most subtle nuances of group dynamics as they pertain to Collective Consciousness. It has become evident that the new organ of consciousness, which is formed when individuals come together for a common higher intention or purpose, is of extreme value at this point of choice for humanity.

What I am referring to is not a new direction for us as far as practice is concerned, rather it is a re-focusing of the message that we have been transmitting to those with whom we come in contact. For that reason, we have spent a good amount of time uncovering our specific mission in this collective movement and defining what it is that makes our offering unique. Interestingly enough, the clearer we become with the process we have contributed to and benefited from all these years, simultaneously the transmission of who we are and what we have to offer is more evident.

This is an exciting time of movement and change for everyone on the Earth, and we are grateful for the opportunity to do our part in sounding a spiritual tone. When I look at the members of Vistar Foundation, I cannot help but be reminded that the spiritual bond of brotherhood which has existed here since the beginning is not solely for our purpose, but stands as a testament and an answer to the longing we, as humans, carry in our hearts from birth. If we have not been able to satifsfly this longing in our relationship with families, friends, loved ones or career, then we are perfect candidates to create a new society whose core can withstand anything and whose binding principle is based on true Identity. I share in the excitement that many of us are now waking up to, that we have the power to co-create a new world and to live more bright, vibrant lives of passion and substance in harmony with all of creation and the course of evolution.

So I find myself once again at the edge of groundbreaking times that demand a radical change. I can't imagine a better time than Now to be living on planet Earth.
