Open Circle Events:

John de Ruiter ~ The Intelligence of Love

In Boulder, Colorado, USA

Co-hosted by Open Circle and College of Integrated Philosophy

See below for Pre-registration (pre-registration closes at noon Sept. 14th, day before event)

We are excited to welcome back to the US the celebrated Canadian teacher John de Ruiter. Raised on the prairies of Alberta, John experienced a powerful awakening at age 17 that left him hungry to permanently realize its truth, which he did several years later, after much exacting inner investigation. At first his awakening found expression through the local Christian community, including seminary study and pastoral work, but, over time, it became clear that he needed to work outside of any traditional structure. Over the years John has amassed a large following, and is known for his powerful meetings, deep transmission, and a clear and original style of teaching that emphasizes open-heartedness and Òcore-splitting honestyÓ. An avid outdoorsman, he is also the founder of the College of Integrated Philosophy in Edmonton, and the author of Unveiling Reality and The Intelligence of Love.

ÒIn meetings I show others dimensions within, greater than the world without. There is far more within us than we perceive of the universe, our planet, our lives. Within our interiors are myriad levels of form, with systems, structures, and relationships. You can let these deeper streams into your heart, changing you from the inside out. When we move with authenticity as awareness, that movement isnÕt going to be as thought and feeling; it is the movement of the being, and that movement is love.Ó
