Shivam's Profile

I have been involved with all aspects of intensives since 1987. I have taken a two week and a six week as well as many 3 day intensives. I have trained in many of the other communication techniques taught by Charles Berner, the originator of the Enlightenment Intensive. I completed an Enlightenment Intensive Masters Training Course with Jake and Eva Chapman in 1988. Since then I’ve been leading Intensives following almost exactly Charles Berner’s original format. I’m unconvinced any variations yield better results. I may run a radically altered E.I in the future but this will be clearly announced and not called E.I.

I have broad experience in psychotherapy, meditation, contemporary growth techniques and ancient ceremonial ways. I’m a long time student of Tibetan Buddhism. This website describes my other work. It also gives you some idea of the wonderful, wild place we have for staging our intensives.

Since 1996 my intensives have been assisted by Anthony Johnston. He is also very experienced in large areas of Charles Berner’s work as well as having much experience with E.Is and he has himself completed an E.I masters training course.

Although I have gone on to many other things, I remain grateful to the E.I for giving me my first strong foothold in the vast terrain of this exploration. Of the many workshops available to people nowadays, I still think E.I shines out like a jewel. For people with busy lives, it provides an opportunity to go deeply to the very heart of things in a short time. The insights are of the most profound order.

May everyone find their path and may situations for great benefit and happiness arise.
