I met you at the Festival in Melbourne. I just want to say thank you. You healed my back. I shouldn't be stunned, but I am. Not only has all the pain gone away, I'm also sitting up straight!

–Deborah Bathory, Melbourne

Healing

It was truly an awakening. My true-self ignited finally and now I have changed for the better. I feel very happy, real strong, powerful and I trust (believe) that I can do anything so long as I set my priorities straight. I will definitely turn up for reminders once I finish the entire course, even to the highest level, so that I can keep myself intact and strong enough so that the outside world will not be able to change me in any negative way!

Never had I thought that I would visit Nepal. The journey from the Workshops until the Retreat here in Nepal have been a previous experience to me. It has changed me a lot and awakened in me more and more the Divine Self. One must come and experience this retreat in Nepal. It is the only spiritual retreat that brings the truth out of you.

–Stephen Wong, Kuala Lumpur

Nepal Retreat, May '09

This Retreat was an unexpected experience. I personally felt that it was an intensive hands-on "live" experience with tests and challenges for soul growth and journey towards the awakening of the Divine Self. I also felt that it was like a preparation / training prior to Master Level. The most precious gift I received in this Retreat was the Divine pure love that filled and is still flowing within my heart. It is a beautiful feeling beyond words and from the moment I received, I instinctively wanted to share with all. Here, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all the brothers and sisters from Australia and Singapore who took part in this Retreat, and not forgetting all the lovely people I met in Nepal, for making this Retreat a special memory to be treasured. Special gratitude to Umesh and Sheila for making this possible.

Nepal Retreat

Umesh & Sushila, I want to thank you both from the bottom of my heart for the most amazing experience in my life. I achieved things that I never thought possible. Meeting the family from Singapore has been wonderful. I feel I have grown and changed so much I will never be the same again. Some of the exercises were challenging at times but I feel I have gained so much. You both have put so much time and effort into making this experience so wonderful for all of us and I love you so much for this. I have had a truly wonderful experience and feel I have grown spiritually.

–Nadine Ciccone, Australia

Nepal Retreat

For me, this Retreat has been a wonderful journey in discovering myself. At first, when I heard the Retreat was MYR 7800, I backed away. Trust me, it is worth more than the price you pay and definitely priceless. There has been a lot of emotional shift and understanding on my personal character and discovery of my purpose in life. The connection back to nature was awesome. You should check out the sunrise and sunset in Nagarkot, with views of the Himalayas as background - totally breathtaking! This part of the exercise helped me understand the importance of preserving the nature and what the nature has provided and fed us with since we were born until today. They helped me to appreciate the things and people who came into my life and taking things for granted. It helped me to learn to love and take everything and the people who came into my life, even though they may not do any good or harm and hurt you. Always remember this - those who give you the deepest pain are in fact your biggest angels, as they teach you to be strong and positive and help you move forward. I learnt a lot in this retreat in Nepal and cannot wait to come back for a refresher. Great job and you always have my support. Thank you for the unbelievable experience and looking forward for more.

Nepal Retreat, May '09

The course was challenging, but I had lots of support from Umesh as well as the group. There was greater awareness and understanding of the self and it changed my perception of understanding of many things that I took for granted. I would also recommend those who feel lost to come to get clearer insights."

I really have felt I've been going through a major change and needing to cleanse and release all past hurts and worries that had been plaguing me and making me feel depressed. By the last day, I've been feeling happier, lighter and uplifted. I plan to continue to practice and grow. Thank you for giving me the guidance and tools to achieve the peace and love I want to attract to my life.

I just started to learn about meditation. It provides basic understanding and learning to relax oneself; de-stress oneself; love oneself. In The Golden Space, Umesh shares learning experiences and makes us understand how far we can go, if we are willing to let go of our inner thoughts and doubts.

–Veronica Mak, Singapore

Basic Meditation Course

It was a wonderful trip filled with lots of laughter, happiness, love, friendship, the beauty of group energies, touching memories, etc. I enjoyed every single experience, especially during the Retreat and also the laid-back town of Pokhara. Thank you, Bro Umesh and Sis Sheila for this well-planned trip and for taking good care of all of us. Many God Bless all of us.

–Izad Ithnin, Singapore

Nepal Retreat

Coming to Bali was an obvious decision after Bangalore. This was another step to further my spiritual journey. I believe that to walk this path, one needs a good, trusting and unselfish teacher. Umesh is not only all of the above, more importantly, he teaches with LOVE! Every trip has been wonderful and well-organized. Learning more about its land, people and rich culture - it enhanced our perception on life as a whole. Many thanks to Sheila for her love and unselfish support in making our trip a success every time!!! I am glad I came. I can understand and have the awareness to put into practice not to think like a "human". By learning to connect to my Higher-Self, I feel fantastic and ready to help others in any way I can.

"Awaken ~ The Divine You" ^® - Advance Level

I had a reading at Mind, Body & Soul Festival in Sydney, Australia. I was searching for a way to connect with my inner self, but living very much on a "mind" level. The Foundation Workshop brought me clarity, as well as giving me tools to access my inner self. I learned to Meditate at a deep level for the first time. The Foundation Level Workshop was very clearly presented, building layer upon layer, but moving fairly quickly to areas which are very beneficial. Yes, I would highly recommend this course to all who are searching for direction and guidance to access the 'secrets' of getting in touch with the Divine power within each of us. Umesh and Sheila presented the course in a very professional manner. The location was comfortable and suitable, the atmosphere was relaxed and the content sincere and informative, as well as empowering. Umesh is true to his word, he brings across this amazing material with humour and insight. The music used in the workshops are beautiful and conducive to relaxation and meditation, complementing the course material. I look forward to the next 4 days of the journey! I feel that the best is yet to come.

"Awaken ~ The Divine You" ^® - Foundation Level

I got to know about this Course through Stephen. I was bored and really wanted to know the Divine inside me and how my inner-self could connect with the Universal or Cosmic energy. I was a little skeptical but am more confident in the subject now. The Workshop has opened me up with the Universal energy and has taught me to open up my higher thoughts, inner-self and higher awareness. This Workshop is interesting, adventurous, a self-experiental journey, a mind-opener and very charged-up. I will definitely recommend this Workshop to those who need help in their lives. The trainer trains with passion, lots of heart, unselfish, interesting, very crystal clear direction and powerful positive energy.

"Awaken ~ The Divine You" ^® - Foundation Level, Apr '09

I was curious to know more about meditation and what I can do to help enhance my life. I was feeling good but fidgety and restless. I felt difficult to concentrate before the lesson started. I have realized that other than using the mind to think, there are other parts of myself e.g. my soul to which I have to spend time listening to and that will help make me more aware, more alert and to understand and listen to myself better. I think that way it makes me know myself better. I think this is a good, quiet location for meditation. It is not religious but it requires you to believe there is a Divine consciousness and Divine One and at least to believe that there is a God. Most of all, an open heart will suffice. The teachings so far have been good. I like the sharing sessions because you come to realize that people are feeling the same way as you and you are not alone. I'm considering but I think likely I would like to develop my ability to connect listen and open up more.

–Lau Su Lin, Singapore

Basic Meditation Course

Before coming to this course I felt tired, stress and difficulty. During the course I learn about rhythmic breathing, deep breathing, how to focus, how to concentrate, what is unconditional and pure love, how to send your love to the one you love. After attending the course, I have learned the skill of rhythmic breathing, to focus, concentrate better and de-stress myself. I felt more relief, more happy and to love myself more.

–Li Shan, Singapore

Basic Meditation Course

This course is very fulfilling, assuring, enlightening and filled with lots of self-realization. It makes what we know from reading books into real life experience. The part I enjoyed most was chakra activation and feeling of Mother Earth, Gaia. I will recommend this course to some who is sincere about life and themselves and ready for a transformation.

–Stefan Thong, Singapore

"Awaken ~ The Divine You" ^® - Personal Mastery Level

The Nepal Retreat was truly profound. I witnessed and personally experienced many miracles and realized the Master I had been searching for all my life was within me. I now see with the eyes of compassion and realize that we all reflect an aspect of each other. Our "attackers" are really a wounded part of our self. The Golden Space courses to-date, for me, have been a conscious evolution of self; becoming the Philosopher, Doer, Healer, the Magician and Master of Self.

–Mae Zaydan, Sydney

Nepal Retreat

The "Awaken ~ The Divine You" program helped me find my true self - to grow and convince myself that I have to continue my path with meditation and healing; helping people, family and friends to grow at the same time. I am not sure I am doing good, but I am doing with my heart and sincerity. Umesh is a very nice enlightened person, wiith Sheila, who is a very kind and loving mother. Thanks, both of you. The family is receiving more and more people; very nice souls.

–Daniele Roger, Kuala Lumpur

"Awaken ~ The Divine You" ^® - Personal Mastery Level (1st Refresher), Apr '09

I am amazed by the transformation in myself within the past 6 days. The vibrational and energetic shifts that occurred are indescribable in words. I know that there are huge shifts but I cannot see and understand what has happened at this point of time. Simply magic! Umesh is down to earth and keeps the workshop going at a fun yet deeply spiritual level. I became more intuitive and found a stronger connection to my true inner-self. I found new direction in life. It is now clear to me that I am going to venture into setting up a healing space in Bangsar, which will cater for therapy work and the sale of new age products. I am so excited at the possibility of this idea and to move forward to owning my own business. I am committed to this intention and will go forth with faith and trust in myself, releasing all uncertainties and doubts. I highly recommend this course to all seekers, new and old - the journey. The benefits are out of this world.
