And Third and most important is that the Vistar Method of Communication reveals a Field of Unity. A group awakening to a partnership with creative Source from which there are infinite possibilities.

The VMC is the subject of much interest in recent months; it will be presented at the United Nations this coming May, was featured in What is Enlightenment? Magazine, and is the subject of radio, online and video interviews.

Vistar Founders Ron and Victoria Friedman talk with
EnlightenNext on "Approaches to Collective Consciousness"


On Thursday, February 14 at 9pm EST, Vistar Founders Ron Friedman and Victoria Friedman were guests of Jeff Carriera, Director of Education for EnlightenNext, and Katherine Miller of EnlightenNext, in a discussion on the revolutionary experiences of groups exploring collective awakening. With over 300 people all around the world listening, they considered the power and implication of the Vistar Method of Communication which is a shared vision with EnlightenNext, a vision that has ignited a passion for true connectedness in service to the evolution of consciousness.

Conference Call Topic: Exploring the Vistar Method of Communication

FROM JEFF CARRIERA OF ENLIGHTENNEXT:

"On this week’s call I am happy to give you the exciting opportunity to meet Ron and Victoria Freidman the founders of Vistar Foundation. For over thirteen years Ron and Victoria have worked with a dedicated group of people developing what they call the Vistar Method of Communication. The awakened field of consciousness that they catalyze through the Vistar Method is so strikingly similar to what is experienced when people come together in the principles of the art and science of Enlightened Communication that I felt compelled to have them join us on our call.

"In our discussion, we will explore the similarities and differences between these two independently developed forms of transformative practice. And we will have the opportunity to hear how Vistar is pioneering the application of these principles in various settings—in groups dedicated to focused spiritual development, in business environments, and even in the creation of original musical and theatrical performances. (The Vistar Foundation has a dedicated touring theatre group called Voicepoint—and I can attest, their performances are powerful, moving, and very creative.)

"Please join me on this webcast with Ron and Victoria Friedman, two passionate and dedicated pioneers of conscious evolution, as they share their experience and give us further insight into how expressions of higher collective consciousness can directly further the evolution of culture. "

Vistar Featured in What Is Enlightenment? Magazine
April-June 2007 "Searching for Utopia"



In its April-June 2007 issue, What Is Enlightenment? Magazine features Vistar, Voicepoint and the Vistar Method of Communication (which was at that time called "The Vortex Method" but which is has now been renamed) in an article entitled "Prototyping the Future." We at Vistar are grateful and excited to have such an articulate and clear presentation of what we watched evolve over 13 years.

It describes this evolution, quoting Victoria to say, "We are creating something with and as the creative force. " Beginning with how Vistar has unfolded, and its sources of inspiration, the article also tells how those gathered in Vistar today have as "an unfolding objective to explore and model a spiritual form of community without a guru, accomplished master or unified teaching at its core"....and that "the heart of the Vistar is a process, a format for coming together that has become the community's real teacher."

The Vistar Method of Communication is then explained as a tool at the center of the Vistar happening. VMC is described as "a finely tuned vehicle for eliciting and sustaining the vigor, mystery and discrimination of collective consciousness." WIE writer Carol Ann Raphael continues, explaining how Voicepoint Ensemble fits this context, with "collective creativity in performances that combine music, voice and movement to convey the power and beauty of universal spiritual truths"....with all aspects produced through the VMC.

It also describes how because of this way of working, those in Vistar are increasingly "recognizing they are seeing in new ways, that their perspective on the world and their understanding of the purpose of their work are changing and expanding. It's more now as if they are in service of the Vortex Method.*" Ron is quoted as saying: "The very process itself, this incredible guiding force, the collective force field, demands more".... " a harbinger for what a model of human engagement could be in the future."

(Please note...The Vortex Method is now known as the Vistar Method of Communication)
