Happy New Year, 2010 from
Michael & Raphaelle Tamura
Check Out Our January Offerings Below... |
|
Greetings To One and All:
Both Michael and I would like to wish you all a most amazing, prosperous and healing New Year. 2009 was incredibly challenging for all of us, so we can only look forward to creating, collectively, something far better this year. Think of it this way: In spite of the challenges, we all made it through in some form or another, right? For those who passed over in 2009, it was an amazing year to "go" - so those "left behind" have something even more to appreciate in what was offered by these loved ones (in Spirit, now) in love, life experience and most of all, forgiveness. Also, you must know that person is free for now to bask and grow in marvelous heavenly energies that will surely help them move ahead as well.
Michael has a wonderful message for all of you (just below mine, here), so I am keeping mine short. Please enjoy the new energies that are already being showered from the higher spiritual realms in support of the deep and heartfelt spiritual work we are all doing.
Also, make sure you scroll down to check out our marvelous events for this month. We truly look forward to being with all of you once again. Thank you for your faithful attendance and support!
With Much Love, Appreciation and Many Blessings,

Living The Miracle Special Seminar Series for 2010!
Dear Friends and Awakening Souls,
Akemashite Omedetto Gozai-masu! That's what they say in Japan at the start of the New Year. Literally, it means something like, "It has opened, congratulations!"
The gates to 2010 have indeed swung wide open! And, I hope you are rejoicing - not so much that 2009 is finally over (I know it's been a challenging one for everyone!) - but, that 2010 is a year that promises new creative adventures, a year poised for relinquishing old limits, forgiving old wounds, and establishing new horizons. This is the year to begin living the miracle much more than you've ever dared.
The fact that the year we just completed was so fraught with intensity and challenges attest to the wonders in store for the year ahead: Last year was just the preparation. Some of the most magnificent and beautiful weddings I have ever participated in were preceded by months of intensive challenges for the bride, groom, and their families, friends and organizers. It's been a lot like that, hasn't it?
Of course, a wedding is the coming together of two poles: Masculine and feminine, active and receptive, spiritual and physical. It is the uniting of parts that make up the greater whole. It is also the gathering of a whole community in love, laughter and joyous celebration of life in the name of the marrying couple. And, the greatest preparation for any marriage is the forgiveness of all things past, the letting go of our investment in what we've long considered to be our unchangeable history.
The question for each of us gathering, from the bride and groom to the friends of the relatives, at every juncture in our preparation for the wedding, boils down to this: Can the Montagues and the Capulets kiss and make up? Will they realize truth, forgive all, and celebrate love? Or will they tenaciously holdfast to their ignorance that permits only one version of what is right, only to lose all that truly matters in life? It is the commitment of the whole community gathering around the loving couple to establish heaven on earth anew. The wedding is the celebration, and the marriage the demonstration, of oneness.
Are you ready for the biggest wedding in human history? Or are you in any way still righteously invested in defending an old perceived wound just as a Montague or a Capulet was? There is no need ever to create tragedy and suffering before conceding to peace, for peace is always present within us and the only true destination for all our journeys. We need only to awaken to its everlasting omnipresence.
"If you had a dream in which someone broke into
your house and stole a certain object,
would you, upon waking and finding that item still there,
call the constable?
Not if you were in your right mind.
And whenever God wakes in us
His/our thinking becomes clear --
nothing is missing.
And how could He not forgive, then,
what never really
happened.....?"
[Excerpted from Does God Understand Himself? by St. Thomas Aquinas, in Love Poems from God by Daniel Ladinsky, p. 135]
Living the miracle begins with choosing truth, forgiving past perceptions, and committing to a joyous and loving celebration of life. The door is open. It's time to step through to the other side of never.
For our part, we have been creating a series of seminars and teleseminars for this year devoted to each of us learning to live more and more as an immortal and divine being everyday in this world in fulfillment of our soul purpose. We will travel to various parts of this country and to various other countries this year to offer our teaching and healing to an ever-expanding circle of awakening souls on life's pilgrimage. Raphaelle may accompany me for many of the US tours, but will stay home to work on her first book and our business during my longer sojourns to other countries. So far, we're scheduled to offer our seminars in both Northern and Southern California; Longmont, Colorado; at the Celebrate Your Life Conference in Chicago, Illinois; Kona, Hawaii & Honolulu, Oahu; Burlington, Vermont; and at the Omega Institute in New York. We're currently setting up dates for our annual Mt. Shasta SHAPE and Inner Divinity Retreats as well as our Northern California SHAPE Weekends. I will be traveling to Chennai, India in February-March to give a group healing session, a two-day seminar and a one-day seminar (for details go to: http://www.e4a.in/) and then to Japan to teach in a series of events around the country (more information forthcoming). I will also be teaching in Bern and Zurich, Switzerland as well as in Markdorf, Friedrichshafen, and Ueberlingen, Germany (see events in May
www.michaeltamura.com). All of you are welcome at any and all of these destinations for some amazing experiences, learning, healing and spiritual growth.
To launch this new series of learning events for the year, we begin with our annual New Year's favorite seminar event we hold in Novato, California this coming weekend, January 9th and 10th! Scroll down to the next sections for details and my write-ups for this event as well as for our wonderful Jan. 23-24 annual Longmont, CO Seminar event and our Jan. 14 TeleSeminar event open to everyone. It's going to be a GREAT year!
Peace Be With You Always,
Michael

Join Us for Our Yearly Special New Year's Seminar Weekend in Novato, CA
This Sat. & Sun. Jan. 9 - 10, 2010
To launch this new series of learning events for the year, we begin with our annual New Year's favorite seminar event we hold in Novato, California this coming weekend, January 9th and 10th!
Intuition: Discovering Your True Inner Compass
Saturday, January 9th, 10 AM - 5 PM
Trusting Your Next Step When You're On The Edge of the Cliff
Sunday, January 10th, 10 AM - 5 PM
Location: The Novato Oaks Best Western Inn (just north of San Francisco, right next to Hwy 101) 215 Alameda del Prado, Novato, CA 94949 Phone number for registering for a sleeping room only: (415) 883-4400
Who May Attend: This event is open to everyone. A Note to those who are "advanced" students: Don't pass up your chance to attend a marvelous event just because beginners are in attendance. Michael teaches to all levels in these wonderful all-day seminars, as you know. Be sure to join us!
Cost: $ 125 for one day and $ 200 for both days. Just a note: We do not intend on raising the prices of our weekend seminar events this year (we haven't raised our prices in many years - probably 12 years or so, just FYI.)
To Register: Please call our office at (530) 926-2650 to register and prepay by credit card (Visa or MasterCard). If you know you will be attending, we GREATLY appreciate your registering and paying ahead of time as this expedites registration on the day(s) of the events. However, if you decide at the last moment to attend, we should be able to accommodate last minute sign-ups and show-ups. We ask, though, that if you are paying by credit card at the door, to please arrive an hour ahead of time. Otherwise, our assistant should be available to take your registration until 6:00 PM on Friday, Jan. 8. Please, if you are calling at the last minute to sign up, be sure to leave a message and also, keep trying!
We joyously welcome you to join us in this weekend of celebrating the launching of 2010 and our next major step in establishing heaven on earth. As one of the great minds of modern times, Albert Einstein, said, "The only real valuable thing is INTUITION." Without discovering what intuition is and how to correctly develop and use it, we cannot hope to live the miracle that is our eternal life. Intuition is truly the window to our inner compass, God's guiding light. I've relied on intuition my whole life. I can honestly say that the only times I later regretted something was when I didn't follow it. Come learn for yourself what intuition is, how to read your inner compass, and what you need to do to follow through on what it tells you. I'll also teach you some spiritual and psychic tools to help you along the way.
We'll follow that up on Sunday with what to do and how when you are standing on the edge of a cliff where nowhere to go but forward! Know that a physical precipice is not the most daunting of cliffs that you can face. We've faced various kinds of situations and conditions where, as we turn back to see where we've been, we don't see anything or anywhere we'd want to go back to and there is nothing in front of us that we've known before onto which we feel we can plant our feet. It could be an emotional, mental or a psychic ledge we are standing on. Whatever kind it may be, we know that there is nothing to do but take the leap. Can we do it? Or do we freeze up? Do we leap joyously into limitless space? Or do we settle for lukewarm, stale or could've almost? Whether you can fully trust your next step makes a big difference in which you choose. So, don't wait. Learn to trust yourself and your big leap forward now. Come discover who and what you're trusting. It'll make a difference in how you live your life. Take a step. Better yet - leap!

Prophecies, Predictions and Setting Your Vision for the New Year
Thursday, Jan. 14, 2010

To Register: Call Our office at (530) 926-2650. We ask that you register ahead of time if at all possible, but if you decide to join us at the last moment, please call before 5:55 PM on Jan. 14, earlier is preferred, of course. If you are trying and you can't get through, leave a message AND keep trying. Everything works best if you do not enter the virtual room late. Also, DO NOT use Skype, please! Also if you are using a cell phone or conference phone, you will need to star-6 yourself (hit *6) immediately upon entering the room. Also regarding conference phones use: We ask that each person attending via a conference phone must still pay individually. Thank you, we appreciate your respecting this!
One Final Note: This is NOT the free TeleSeminar we are offering to our last TeleSeminar group (due to very unexpected technical problems) - this is a paid TeleSeminar only. For that group, we will be sending a separate announcement to only that group as to when that promised TeleSeminar will be (that announcement is coming very soon.)
We've launched an incredible New Year. It's incredible because it's going to be beyond belief. To live the miracle, you must go beyond what is believable, what is imaginable. You need to go beyond your history. It's the year to imagine the unimaginable, not once or a few times, but all the time! Let's get together for this special TeleSeminar celebration of the next twelve months and take a peek into what's to come: What's already been imagined and, more importantly, what's unimaginable yet. We'll see what miracles we can uncover and bring forth together in the coming months. I'll teach you some nifty psychic tools to be more in the present so that you could better see the future. Then, I'll guide you in setting your vision for this brand new and incredible year.

Michael's Write-Up for The Colorado Weekend Seminar Event:
There's been a considerable outpouring of material about the year 2012 and specifically what might happen, or not, on December 21 of that year. I even saw a trailer for a movie that's been out now for a while about that theme with quite a lot of explosions, interstates collapsing and what-not. It seems as well that even all the cable networks have been on the 2012 bandwagon. As they should, because it'll be much more significant than all the Super Bowls, World Series, NBA Championships and every other "winner-take-all" massively watched TV sporting event put together. And, not because of exactly what's going to happen here on earth on that particular day, but more so because, for once, humanity might have a real opportunity to start to think together about something other than itself as the center of the universe. We might actually start practicing living the way human beings were meant to live and join in on that wondrous and magnificent phenomenon called Eternal Life. Imagine that!
There's been all sorts of predictions being made about that date ranging from the most horrific destruction to the most sublime rapture scenario along with those of total denial. Anyone know anything for sure? The only thing I know with certainty is that no one knows - and no one CAN know - what exactly is going to happen. If you can imagine what is going to happen, it won't. But, I am certain that what none of us can imagine will happen. What is important, moreover, is how we each choose to live life after 2012.
That will be very much like deciding how you wish to die. With all that's been written and said about life after death, when it comes right down to it, none of us really knows exactly what it's going to be like when we die, do we? Just ask anyone who's been dead more than once. It's been different each time, I'm sure they'll say. Any of the similar parts to "life after dying" is only so because you're coming back here. When you're "dying" for the "last" time, all bets are off.
When you decide how you wish to die, you're free and clear to go when the time comes - no matter what awaits you "on the other side". You'll live the way you choose to die, no matter what you encounter. That's what we're all preparing for. 2012 asks, "Do you know how you wish to die?" Only when you are able to answer that question honestly and fully, will you begin to live the miracle. 2012 is the challenge to all of humanity as a whole race. It's like the doctor telling an individual, "You have less than two years to live." That individual is going to get into high gear to examine his or her life and start making some big changes fast. How will you face that prognosis? Are you willing to face death at peace with yourself and in love? Or, will you go fighting to the bitter end? Can you surrender your desire to separate? Or, will you resist being swallowed up into nothingness?
If you'd like to learn some simple, but powerful spiritual tools to start living the way we need to live beyond 2012 now, I encourage you to join us for this special Seminar Weekend in Longmont, Colorado. You're welcome to join us for both days or either day, but, the two seminars will work hand-in-hand to teach you how to start living the way that all of humanity will be challenged in every way over the next two years to come to realize by the end of 2012. Don't wait. It's imperative to start practicing living the miracle way of life now. You're here to show others how.
In Saturday's seminar, you'll learn various spiritual tools needed to start living life beyond 2012 now. These tools will help you live more as limitless immortal souls here on earth learning to master energy/matter, space and time in daily life. We'll look at how to approach everything in our path in a way that opens the way to the infinite. On Sunday, we'll explore how to get our head to listen to the wisdom of our inner heart, the heart of wisdom. You'll learn valuable spiritual tools to help you face the challenges - and, more importantly, the joyous celebration of oneness - in the years to come.
We welcome you to join us this weekend in Longmont in ringing in a mighty year of celebrating our life beyond 2012. See you soon! |

Michael's Write-Up for The Los Angeles Event, Feb. 6 - 7:
Everything is energy. That means your home, your workspace and your finances are all energy. In fact, your whole world and everything in it is energy. And, that is wonderful news. Do you know why?
It's great news especially in these uncertain times of unprecedented challenges facing all of us because if everything is energy and we learn to master energy, we can transform anything! If anything in your life is not what you'd like it to be, you can definitely do something about it - even if you think you don't have the money, the time, the experience or the expertise to change it for the better.
We know we can change something from the outside, for example, like when we re-roof our house, tune-up our car, or deposit more money into our bank account. However, whenever we need to do that, we would need certain supplies, know-how, some resources, and a chunk of time to do it. It's not a problem until we find ourselves without access to one or more of those necessary components.
In fact, right now, how many things would you like to improve in your home, work or financial space that you haven't been able to get to because you don't quite have the money, time, knowledge, tools or other resources to do so? Or, you feel you haven't been able to change it because that would involve getting the cooperation of a person or group of people who refuse to cooperate? Well, there is a powerful and effective way around all of those apparent shortcomings.
True and lasting transformation comes from within. Instead of trying to change the form or condition of something from the outside, when we change its energy from within, the transformation will follow. It's like changing the vibration of water from freezing to hot, its form naturally changes from solid ice to liquid to gas. Is it time to heat up some frozen assets for liquid cash?
Join us in a weekend of pro-fun-dities and miracle-making and learn the secrets of transforming your life from the inside out. Things aren't going well in the home front? Time to heal the energy of your home space. Cramped in your career or work situation? Maybe you need to re-set the energy of your work space. Your finances not panning out? Let's take stock of the energy in your income space and see what kind of boost it needs. Whatever the condition, problem or challenge you face - especially if nothing's worked so far - what have you got to lose to give it an energy make-over from the inside out?
If you don't put the right kind of fuel in your car, it's not going to run, is it? Or, if you don't feed your body the health-giving food that it needs, it won't work very well either. So, learn to put in the correct kind of energy into your home, work and financial spaces to fuel and transform what happens within them. When you learn to correctly take care of each of your spaces in life, those spaces will take care of you!
Come learn the Spiritual Tools for Transforming Your World and Heal Your Home, Work and Financial Spaces during our Los Angeles Seminar Weekend. It will change your life. | |
