In the next to the last paragraph of the original post, you will see the link entitled “remodeling” in reference to remodeling the Bob Monroe Research Lab building.

I’m so delighted that TMI wants to move towards that SHIFT that we’re all feeling right now. As the mountainsides in Big Sur burn wildly, I get the sense of all the old dying oaks making way for the redwood seeds being sprung by the high temperatures, getting ready to relaim their heritage. Do you know that Redwoods once covered most of North America and China?

Anyway, strong synergies are emerging amongst many who are ready to let the tired old energies of getting and spending which lay waste our powers burn out. And the seeds of rebirth and renewal are already hoisted by the wind. Together we shall succeed.

The idea I’m floating here is that, TMI has done an excellent job through the years of providing the context for self exploration. This has proven to be an extraordinary gift and the overwhelming support and enthusiasm of our graduates is proof of that. Could it be that our next step is to expand our notion of transformation to a global scale? Could it be that our service, which we have usually thought of as service to individuals who happen to be dispersed all over the world, needs to be expanded, dramatically reframed to service to the world, using the talents of individuals who have themselves been transformed at some core level?

Have TMI programs been creating a population of people who are stretching the scale for human development and potential? What if we were to find a way to employ their talents in a dramatic, concerted effort? Could it be that the programs that TMI has been offering so far are actually an initiation into, and preparation for, higher service?

This is something that I have been hoping would happen for a long time. I’ve always had the strange sensation of being physically very far from TMI (I live on the west coast of British Columbia) but psychically feeling very close. In addition to the creation of outreach facilitators I think it would be a good idea to also create the infrastructure of numerous mini-TMIs all over the globe. (I put in a request right now for one somewhere in BC!)

By mini-TMI what I mean is that instead of places where workshops are done on a temporary basis, there need to be permanent locations dedicated to creating the Gateway and other experiences full time.
