Frequently Asked Questions

  • Guidance Sessions (60 minutes) are a spiritual exploration on the level of dialogue, inquiry, guidance and Q&As, bringing clarity to your experience and meeting what wants to be met in a tender and unconditional space. They will also have a component of silence, meditation and contemplation, depending on what is called for. Underpinning the guidance session is the presence and transmission of Divine Light.
  • Presence Sessions (30 minutes) are primarily silent, with space for deep stillness, within the container of a Divine Light Transmission. There may be darshan (sacred eye gazing) and/or energy healing woven in. They start with a brief moment for practical questions, and addressing any intention for the session.

Guidance Sessions are predominantly focused on guidance, inquiry, and dialogue in support of your unfolding awakening. You can ask any questions you may have and we can explore them together. It’s a very nurturing, non-judgmental and supportive environment to delve into your own experience and to gain clarity and insights into those areas that you may be struggling with.

Guidance sessions are underpinned by a strong presence and transmission of Divine Light and so quite naturally they can lead to a more meditative and contemplative space where you can feel able to rest in and as Being, should one be called there.

Silent meditation, divine light transmission, darshan and energy healing may come about naturally from this space, but if you’re specifically after darshan or energy healing then a Presence Session may be more suited to you. Alternatively you can attend my group meetings. The weekly zoom groups may be of particular interest.

Presence Session is predominantly a silent meditative session.

Each session is a deeply held space of divine presence, illumination, expansion of consciousness, and healing (coming to wholeness). You may be drawn to be silence, meditation, contemplation or personal prayer–whatever happens, my recommendation is that you surrender to the present moment and let yourself met by Divine Grace.

There is a strong underlying energetic presence and Divine Light transmission in these sessions. Energy healing or Darshan (sacred eye gazing) may happen spontaneously, or you are welcome to request this focus at the beginning of the session.

Presence sessions are not a substitute for a guidance sessions so if you want to ask questions and receive guidance or get into a dialogue with me I suggest booking a Guidance Session or attending a group meeting that allows for Q&As.

No special preparation is required. You may find it helpful to create a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed. Please arrive a few minutes early to the zoom waiting room, so that when the session starts you are already settled and ready to start.

Currently, 1-1 sessions take place online via Zoom. Some in-person events and retreats are available at selected times throughout the year. Take a look at my Events page for more information on these.

Yes but for Presence Sessions ONLY, I can energetically sit with you remotely using a photograph you provide.

Remote sessions are offered at my discretion, so please contact me before booking to discuss whether this is the right option for you.

If we proceed, you can book a Presence Session as usual, noting in the booking form that it is a remote session.

Divine Light Transmissions are an energetic offering of grace and presence, of pure Divine Light (Source-God-Consciousness-Being), supporting a deepening connection and expansion to your true nature, ‘turning up the volume’ of awareness. They are received effortlessly, with an openness and receptivity, a simple “yes” being all that’s needed. They work beyond the mind’s understanding. In the guidance sessions whether we are in dialogue or not, the presence and transmission of Divine Light radiates naturally throughout the interaction.

This is entirely personal. Some people feel one session is sufficient, while others choose to return regularly for deeper integration and ongoing support. Most people find that the impact is found through multiple sessions.

For the 1-1 Guidance Sessions I generally recommend that you have ONE session a month. This isn’t a hard and fast rule, so if you have any question about this, please get in touch and we can discuss what may suit you.

For the 1-1 Presence Sessions I recommend that you leave a minimum of 7 days between sessions unless you have discussed it with me prior to booking.

The effects of a session can be subtle or profound and may unfold over time. Trust that the clarity, insights from our dialogue and the transmission are working at the level needed, even if you don’t perceive it immediately.

Ultimately our path, our timing, our experiences are perfectly unfolding. To let go of our ideas of where we should be and when and how that should come about, is necessary in order that we remain open to what life is revealing in us in this very moment.

You can book a session via the calendar on the presence or guidances sessions page. Availability is listed in the booking calendar and times are listed for your timezone. Once you have selected your desired date/time follow the instructions to complete your payment and booking.

I use the Zoom.us video conferencing platform for all my sessions and meetings. If you’ve never used Zoom before you’ll need to sign up for a free account with them and download a piece of software (free too) prior to our session.

At the time of our session click on the link in the confirmation email sent at the of booking and it should open up the Zoom software. Please let me know if you don’t have a webcam prior to booking a session.

If you run into any problems with Zoom let me know.

Once you book a session, you’ll receive a Zoom link in your confirmation email.

Simply click the link at your scheduled time to join.

If you feel called to a session but finances are a barrier, please reach out and I will do my best to accommodate where possible.

Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 24 hours’ notice. Cancellations within 72 hours are non-refundable. Booking fees are also non-refundable.

Rescheduling can be done yourself via the confirmation email, or get in touch with me and I can make any adjustments for you.

PLEASE NOTE: While I will always do my best to honour all of the sessions that are booked, if I need to cancel a session for whatever reason you will either be given the option to reschedule the session to an available time/day of your choosing on my booking calendar, or given a refund in full.

As standard I record all of my sessions and meetings, so it’s your responsibility to let me know if you’d prefer not to have the session recorded.

I will send out an audio (only) recording of the session within 24hrs of our session which will be available to listen to and/or download for up to 7 days after the session. The presence, transmission and energy of Divine Light is carried in the recording.

I ask that it be for your personal, private use only and not shared with others.

Questions about 1-1 sessions

General Questions

More information about this can be found on the Divine Light Transmission webpage.

But the general gist of it is sit quietly, comfortably, open & receptive and… relax, as if you were getting a massage or sunbathing on a beach. In your heart give this divine light permission and a big ‘YES’ to work as needed in service of your awakening.

After the session I recommend taking some additional time to sit or lay down quietly or meditate so that the energy of the Transmission can integrate in the body.

Divine Light Transmissions are powerful energetic transmissions of Source Energy/Divine Light with the aim of expanding ones level of consciousness and awakening to the truth of ones Self. As such they are not to be undertaken without this knowledge of their potential, as awakening has long lasting impact on all areas of life.

Anyone who is earnestly engaged on their spiritual path can received Divine Light Transmissions. Whether you’re just starting out, a seasoned seeker, or even post-awakening, they can be supportive and helpful on your journey.

However, because they are a strong catalyst of awakening I do not give Divine Light Transmissions without permission/consent from the recipient.

I also typically do not give transmissions to under 18’s except under rare circumstances. People with a history of severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar are not recommended to receive Divine Light Transmissions. I also do not recommend receiving a transmission if you are actively engaged with certain recreational drugs, particularly psychedelics.

This Divine Light Transmission is a gentle but powerful transmission of spiritual energy that helps to opens the crown chakra and other energy centers and dissolves the deep-seated I-thought. No ill effects have been reported. Some people will experience a coolness in their head, pressure or maybe even the presence of a white light. Some also experience things such as energy and/or heat in the body, opening of the heart, calming of the mind, spontaneous twitches or movements in the body are also normal. There are also those that experience nothing particular during the transmission, so whatever your experience is or isn’t it doesn’t reflect the effectiveness of the transmission at all. We each get what we need.

Everyone’s experience is uniquely different, but as with any spiritual energy work there is a possibility of the releasing of old traumas and built up stresses which we have often been avoided or protected by the ego/mind. So after receiving the transmission for some there may be a period of adjustment (or ‘purification’) where it can be sometimes intense or even unpleasant. Of course, as with everything, “This too shall pass”. 

However people with a history of severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar are not recommended to receive this Divine Light Transmission, but please talk to me about your specific history if in doubt.

I also do not recommend receiving a transmission if you are actively engaged with certain drugs, particularly psychedelics. We just can’t know how they will interact.

If you have any questions or concerns about any of this please email me to discuss them. Also please read the Disclaimer.

This is a hard question to answer. It very much depends on what you want to get out of the sessions with me. But generally I see rapid change in people who have committed to this process in an ernest way.

Some people come to me to help them ease their general suffering and unease with life. Many come because they are at the end of their seeking journey and are ready to awakening to their nature of awareness-consciousness. Others come in search of support post-awakening embodiment – which in many ways in my favourite work as I feel there is so much need for it at this time.

Amount of sessions just really depends on where someone is and what they are coming to me for. Some I meet regularly for weeks or even months, others it’s just a few sessions and then we’re done. Then there are those that just come sporadically when something particular is coming up. Some I only see once. I always say to people trust your process, use your intuition… I leave it up to you to know what’s best for you in terms of sessions.

But just to say, as far as awakening goes… There can be no guarantees of timings or timescales as it’s a uniquely personal journey for each and every one of us… we all have our own personal ‘timing’ in life. In my experience it’s rare to meet someone who is ready (or ripe) and at the end of their seeking journey and so stabilises in abiding Nonduality after just a few sessions, but it does happen. For most it will take more sessions and transmissions.

The biggest thing I can impart is that if you are serious about Self-Realisation… be earnest and open, go all in, and go all the way 🙂

While the energy, Divine Light (Shakti/Energy) or Pure Unity (Nondual) Consciousness is the same, each transmission can be experienced slightly differently in that we all get what we need in that moment. The Divine Light Transmission does what it needs to do, moves where it needs to go in each one receiving it.
 
As the facilitator for this process (let me be clear: it’s not ‘my’ personal energy but divine light/source/shakti energy) I also let the energy and intuition move me too. During the transmission as I come to notice something in a person, an energetic block, density or knot maybe, I bring my attention and focus to this area with love and with the intention of helping facilitate the softening, dissolutions and integrations of what is occuring.
 
I start of each Divine Light Transmission with a prayer. Each time it changes slightly as I let the words move and speak through me, but they all have the same general theme and flavour – An intention(s) for those receiving the transmission as well as gratitude, deepest reverence and total surrender to life, to the Divine. It’s then that I formally give my personal self over to life as it works through me in the form of a Divine Light Transmission.

Divine Light Transmissions are a universal energy of Divine Light and as such are without location. There’s been great success in receiving the benefits of this Transmission, whether it’s been in-person, through a zoom video chat, or even remotely with a photograph. Distance is no barrier. I’m generally located in the UK at the moment and so when arranging a session note that my time zone is London Time (GMT/UTC+0 or BST/GMT+1 in the summer months).

Yes, I regularly offer group meetings which include group Divine Light Transmissions.

On Wednesdays I host a 30 minute Divine Light Transmission & Meditation on Zoom at 19:00 UK time, and on Sundays I host Satsang at 16:00 UK time followed by a 1 hour Divine Light Transmission & meditation on zoom. The full details can be found at beyondimogen.com/zoom-group.

As well as the weekly zoom groups I also hold one-day Intensives as well a longer five or 10 day retreats.

More info on the schedule of events and how to join can be found on the ‘events‘ page.

If you have a group that would be interested in hosting me either online or in-person just get in touch.

Retreats & Intensives

For retreats and intensives I do offer photo transmissions for those that are unable to attend sessions in person.
These are intended for when someone is in a different timezone and sleeping, therefore I don’t recommend them for during activity but please use your own judgement on this.

Group Meetings

I do not offer remote photo transmissions for all other group meetings at this time.

1-1 Sessions

I will on occasion offer photo transmissions, particularly if we have had 1-1 video sessions before or you have attended group meetings and/or retreats.
Please contact me via email to discuss the possibility of a remote photo transmission for you.

Yes, group meetings, retreats and intensives are all recorded and by attending them you automatically agree to have your voice and/or image used for the public sharing of Satsang. It’s your responsibility if you don’t wish to be recorded to turn your camera and mic off and submit questions through email before the meeting or the chat window during. In the zoom chat box if you send a message to everyone I will read out your name, if you send me a direct message I will keep your question or comment anonymous. For the Divine Light Transmission portion of the meeting I do recommend that your video be turned on as this makes it much easier to connect with your energy, but I don’t ever share the recordings of the group view of transmissions, the camera remains on me only.

Unauthorised personal recordings are not allow.

Satsang recording are available to watch through my Substack archive on a subscription basis. For more information: https://beyondimogen.com/satsang-videos

1-on-1 sessions are also record unless otherwise requested by you. I generally don’t keep a copy for very long but they’re recorded for mainly two reasons.

The first reason being that you can request the audio file if you wish – please do this during or immediately after our session, like I said I don’t generally keep them for long. I just ask that you keep it for your own personal and private use and don’t share with anyone else.

The second reason is for the purpose of my ‘Conversations & Questions’ series (https://beyondimogen.com/categories/articles/conversations-questions/) which comes from transcribed and edited snippets of conversations taken from questions in the comments of social media, emails, 1-on-1 sessions, group meetings or in-person conversations. I take out any personal or sensitive content, even changing the questions to be broader and more universal where appropriate. But often these conversations have a universality to them that can be really helpful to more than just one person. All is used with the utmost care, sensitivity and consideration, and where applicable I will inform you when something is being released publicly.

If you have any other questions that haven’t been answered here, feel free to drop me a line via the contact form.
