From the brochure….
This is the longest inner-focused gathering ever to be held by David in Australia. It is intended that this retreat, The Inevitable Awakening, will provide an exceptional environment of love, peace, joy, and support, where you may be helped and guided to return to that place in you – The inevitable awareness of the truth about what you have always been! The stage is set! You are now invited, with love, to answer the call and join with us.
THE GATHERING: Join with David Hoffmeister and the Messengers of Peace, a family of gentle and loving spiritual guides and teachers of self realisation via A Course in Miracles principles. There is the flexibility of three gathering formats – 3, 9 or 11 days to suit your availability and budget. The main structure of the content is based on 9 days with an additional two days, totaling 11 , which will help serve the purpose of coming down gently from the main gathering and devoting the remainder to silence and listening to the voice of truth within. The shorter three day option is simply Day 1, 2 & 3 of the main gathering. Lunch and morning tea are included most days.

THE SETTING: Minimbah Farm is 150 acres of Heaven On Earth paradise in beautiful Kangaroo Valley. Although content is the focus of the retreat, the surrounding landscape (the form) will help to provide an atmosphere of solitude, peace and readiness. You can relax and take in the stunning views, wander all over the wonderful farm which includes lush paddocks and peaceful rainforests, all abundant with wildlife and native birds. You could also meditate by the creek, feed the goats, alpacas and miniature cattle, collect the eggs from the friendly chooks, go wombat spotting at dusk, say hello to the kangaroos in the back paddocks, or you just might spot “Felix” our resident platypus. There is also a mini ‘hack around’ golf course. We are located 2km from the village of Kangaroo Valley where you will find excellent cafes as well as specialty shops and grocery stores. The Valley, just two hours drive south of Sydney, is surrounded by national park and just 30 minutes to beaches and 40 minutes to the Southern Highlands.
DAILY FORMAT: Every day will be filled with opportunities for insight, release and realisation. Included are talks with David, small group sessions with the messengers, movie clip sessions, experiential sessions, singing, one-on-ones, free reign over the 150 acre farm surrounded in nature, a hot spa, as well as group activities such as bush walks, canoeing (optional) and beach trips etc. In short, the setting and format will provide abundant opportunities for practical application leading towards the universal experience of ever present unconditional love.
ACCOMMODATION: Most of the participants will stay at the gathering venue, Minimbah Farm. You can either camp, caravan or stay in a comfortable room in one of the lovely Minimbah Farm Cottages. All linen and towels are supplied in the cottages and caravans. See www.minimbah.com.au . Breakfast provisions can be supplied for an additional $10 per day. The capacity is 24 comfortably (up to 33) in the three cottages, six in the caravans, and a recommended maximum of 60 campers.
