I am a 38 year old man who has known Serge Benhayon and his family for about 6 or 7 years now. Up until that point I had my share of problems: in relationships, family issues, with work and with myself. As much as I would have liked to rectify myself I lacked the tools to do so. I tried many things from: yoga, chi-gung, Buddhism, to growing my hair long, not wearing deodorant and going to peace marches! I tried working really hard and at the other extreme being a surf bum on the dole.

You could say I was a bit lost in the world and searching for some identity.

When I met Serge for a healing session at his clinic it was a wonderful experience. He never judged me for all the things I have done but just met me for who I was and allowed me to feel, through some simple hands on healing techniques, that I was actually a very wonderful, gentle and loving man. This is who I am.

I had a terrible relationship with my mother but now we catch up and it’s quite lovely to spend time with her. I was very much into substance abuse and now don’t smoke or drink at all, and I can feel a sense of purpose in my daily living to be much more gentle and loving with myself. It’s not that he ever told me to do this or that, just that he shows a way of living so that you can actually be caring and loving towards yourself.

Being more loving towards one-self and then naturally towards others – on what basis can you slander that?

Thanks Serge for the simple and practical wisdom that you have taken the time to share with us and can’t wait to see you again soon.

P.S. He is also a really good surfer and a snappy dresser – totally cool and loving!
