Derek back in New York!

Finally and to everyone's utter surprise, Derek O'Neill (my spiritual teacher) came to NYC this past weekend. He has not been here in close to a year, and his students have been able to see him only in Ireland. Having him in the Big Apple was an absolute delight!

Almost a thousand people came to his workshop on Sunday and the line for admittance spanned an entire City block. The intensity of the energy was like being at the week-long workshop in Ireland. I personally was happy that friends & family of mine were able to attend and see Derek in action. They hear so much about him from me, but to truly understand what he is all about you have to see him. One of these people was my mother, who was curious & slightly skeptical of Derek. We sat separately so that we could each have our own experience independent of the other person. Derek walked up to my mom at one point to do a healing on her back. "How did I know you had back pain?" Derek asks my Mom. "They tell me everything." I sit there smiling, knowing that my mom's socks were not only blown off, but were now probably hanging from the church rafters.

The day was beautiful, amazing and loving beyond belief. He reintroduced the Rising Star energy, which was in the form of a Rising Star healing for all in the room. He did hands-on healings right next to me, so to watch him work that close was an absolute blessing. Time stood still, yet 8 hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Just about everyone I talked to napped on Monday, taking down time to integrate the energy from the workshop. I spoke to my Mom in more detail about her back and her overall impressions of Derek. She told me right after the workshop was over, "Now I understand why you are always going to Ireland." After expressing a desire to go to his week-long class she tells me, "but I am still not giving you money to go. Because now I might need it for myself."

So, let me get this straight...before you wouldn't give me money because you 'didn't believe in it.' Now you won't give me money because you do. Hmmm. Mom logic. Don't try to understand it. But it makes sense to them apparently.

PS: Guess who threw out their back this morning and was unable to walk while their back was in a full spasm. Nope, not Mom...guess again...yup...that would be me. Maybe I should stop and listen to all of these great teachings more carefully. And see if Derek can sort me out too.

For more info about Derek, you can go to his website: http://www.moretruthwillsetyoufree.com/ and for more information on the healing center he opened in the south of Ireland go to: http://www.creaconpremaagni.com/.
He is truly a Master, so any chance you have to see him you should take it.
