The Gift of
Being in the Presence ~ Students share their experiences ~ "From my experience, there is nothing like the transformational quality of being in the physical presence of the Wisdom Master. It’s like the difference between hearing a symphony orchestra live versus a recording of the same concert. There is a powerful essence that makes being with Her an interactive, multidimensional, life-changing experience. I have witnessed the transformation in myself and others, time and time again. I have seen unwanted conditions in my life that I thought would never change, begin to fall away as a direct result of my interactions with Her. I am very grateful." "I have been on the Path for over sixteen years, but for me, the three weeks spent at Copperlande, was the ultimate spiritual experience. Although I sense the Wisdom Master often throughout the day, nothing prepared me for the startling difference between sensing her and being in her actual physical presence. At Copperlande, her presence permeated every square inch of the property; within hours of being there, I was breathing, hearing, seeing, and feeling her essence, and this carried into the sleep dream with even more vividness. If I had experienced nothing else, this was the ‘icing on the cake’ to realize how potent it was to be in constant close proximity/energy of an Enlightened Master -- a spiritual feast that allowed an opportunity to experience and live the Teachings." "Being in the Wisdom Master’s presence is an opportunity to view the Teachings from her side of the fence, to actually glimpse the enlightened state. I see more and more the benefit of these glimpses as they add up to spiritual evolution, bringing happiness and joy and uplifting the beings around us." "One day after a Teaching at a recent Empowerment, I had a question that I did not ask in class, and I felt it still "stirring" inside me. I had a sudden "nudge" to go outside to quiet the mind. As I rounded the path that leads to the garden, I saw the Wisdom Master standing there smiling at me. She talked about the birds eating birdseed on the ground, saying that they would all be her "students" someday and she asked me about a personal experience I had just had. Then, as the Wisdom Master walked away, I realized that she had answered my question without my even having to ask it." "I have been a student of Wisdom Master Maticintin for 16 years. As a student I have read the books the Wisdom Master has written, listened to the Teachings on CD, and attended Empowerments. All are valuable ways of learning. And yet, by far, the experience of being in my Teacher’s presence has a dynamic effect on me that reading and listening to CD’s cannot compare. It feels as though the intimacy of being in the Teacher’s physical presence adds another level of understanding and absorption of the Teachings. It seems as though she lets us see through her eyes what Reality really is and what life can be through spiritual practice. It is an enlivening adventure." "I have come to see that one of the biggest gifts of being in the presence of the Wisdom Master is learning how to receive. In the world, you see things through how they relate to you. You think that you are your personality, and everything revolves around your likes & dislikes, your attitudes and opinions. However, the Wisdom Master speaks to me, not as a personality, but as divinity, a part of myself that I hadn’t been aware of. In the beginning, everything I heard was filtered solely through my personality. But eventually, I began to see that the Wisdom Master was giving to me in a completely different way, and I began to receive in a completely different way. I started to open and to experience what unconditional love was like, to become aware of that part of me that was not controlled by mind passions or likes and dislikes. In the presence of the Wisdom Master, I am able to hear on a deeper level, which allows me to receive that which sparks my own divinity."
