Choose Into the Divine Presence: A Practical Workshop for Daily Spiritual Presence

Choosing Into the Divine Presence is a deep-dive workshop designed to sharpen awareness of living with God's presence in everyday moments. The program title is Choosing Into the Divine Presence, and it is listed with a meeting point of Sydney, Australia while the booking record also shows Los Angeles, California, United States—reflecting both international participation and online access for global attendees. This full-day workshop (9 Hours) guides participants through practices and conversation intended to make spiritual awareness portable: at work, on the freeway, in the kitchen, and on the sidelines of a child's soccer game. The setting is less about a single landmark and more about a pattern of attention. Key features of the experience include guided satsang, communal listening sessions, practical exercises for “choosing” presence in ordinary life, and live contributions from facilitators such as John Morton (scheduled online, health and schedule permitting). Quotations from John-Roger, DSS, included in the course materials emphasize immediate embodiment of presence rather than renunciation: “your cup runs over and you don't have to tilt it to give to anyone.” Attendees can expect a mix of didactic teaching, reflective silence, small-group sharing, and practical takeaways designed for daily life. The workshop foregrounds human connection as a resource: the Traveler and fellow participants are treated as instruments for recognizing the sacred in routine contexts. Cultural notes included in the description reference MSIA programming and past teaching from the DSS lineage; registration and venue details are delivered by email after sign-up. This program stands out because its goal is practical continuity: not an isolated retreat removed from life, but training that insists spiritual continuity is possible amid ordinary responsibilities. For urban travelers this means translated skills for reintroducing calm and awareness on congested commutes or noisy city afternoons. For remote attendees, the online tuition option makes the teaching accessible without travel. Logistics are straightforward: online registration is required and viewing instructions are sent by email; tuition options include in-person and online pricing. Technical support contacts and registrar details are provided for pre-event questions. Whether you come seeking an intensive day of contemplative practice, or a toolkit to make presence habitual when life gets busy, this workshop is pitched at those ready to practice presence in the friction of everyday living. It’s work meant to change how you move through ordinary hours. Tuition is listed at In-Person Tuition: $180.00 and Online Tuition: $125.00; the day runs roughly nine hours and includes breaks—check registration for exact schedule.
