The activities at the Oneness University European campus are continuously developing and for the first time two courses were carried out at the same time: the Level 1 “Doors to Oneness” course and the Level 2 “Oneness Awakening” course.

The increasingly international nature of the courses was once again underlined with the arrival of people from Hungary, Sweden, Great Britain, Austria, Norway, Ireland, Israel and Italy; despite different nationalities, cultures and habits the Campus made everyone feel at home creating a family atmosphere thanks also to the loving and caring attitude of teachers and staff. All participants have let us know that they enjoyed their stay and felt at home.

This is what Reka, the helper of the Hungarian group told us:

“Everything is wonderful here! It is as if the Oneness Experience/Oneness Deeksha is even more powerful and full of energy at the European Campus compared to the experience lived by the groups I accompanied to India. The course is so intense that participants do not even have time to ask themselves whether they are in Italy or India or any other place! I have also noticed a difference in the participants: they are much more concentrated during the process as if they are more deeply immersed in their inner experience. Even the teachings seem to have changed and I have the feeling people understand them more quickly, I would say immediately. It is the first time I have seen a group relax so quickly and let itself go to the experience right from the first moment. It was wonderful to see them; it was as if they had known each other ever since they were children."

Monica the translator of the Hungarian group added:

“I would like to talk about the Oneness University teachers and say first of all that they were impeccable. Another thing I noticed is that they are more available, within reach. What I mean is that the structure in India is very big and it is only possible to see teachers in the classroom or during individual meetings while here in Italy the size of the Campus makes it easier to establish a relationship with them: you can meet them in the dining room or in the garden. It was good to see them amongst. At the Campus there is no distance between them and us and this makes the participants feel at ease."

This was the first experience as course helper of Ella Maria from Sweden:

I accompanied the Level 2 group: they were all very keen to come on this course and this was underlined by their high level of attention and concentration. I can say they all lived a strong experience and after some initial resistance everything flowed very well.

It is a bit like what happened to me when I experienced the Oneness Experience/Oneness Deeksha. I went on the 21 day course in India in March 2004; I was one of the first westerners to take part in the course and at the beginning it was not easy. I had practised transcendental meditation for many years, which I still teach in Sweden, and I was going through a difficult period. But after the course I simply....started to live! That’s exactly what happened; I came back home and started to live my life! Since then my growth has been continuous, in everyday life in Sweden and during my time here at the Campus. Everything is wonderful!”
