My deepest gratitude for both of you Dennis and Ben, I am looking forward to this work today. I am on eastern time zone here in Savannah Georgia and if possible would prefer to partner with another eastern time person. Much appreciation love and li
Thank you for inviting this new learning. I am not good with computer technology and shy to meet person especially online. So I am getting help from my husband Martin Iseri as my guest to proceed on this activity. Thank you and excited for this work.
Hi, I had hoped to link tonight but realise I thought it would be midnight UK time but it will actually start 1.00am UK time. Even if I stay awake I can’t se me being able to concentrate so will have to catch up with the recording. I have followed Dennis’s work for many years. Best wishes to all Jonathan
My friend Carolynn Connely ([email protected]) would like to ‘attend’ this course. We apologize it is SO last minute.
I’d like to work with her in ‘break out sessions’.
Thank you,
Hi Blythe,
It should be set up as you requested.
Thank you Dennis and Ben for the first part of this course, I feel encouraged and grateful for your hard work, look forward to growing with the wish to do better through these practices and teachings, many blessings 🙏
Hello Ben, how do i connect with the dyad person? with whom I was sharing in the break room?
How do I connect with the dyad from last session?
Hi Lila,
In tomorrow’s session, you will be put back in the same breakout rooms, so you can exchange contact details if you wish to connect outside the session.
Hey Ben and Dennis,
I was not able to attend last week’s session as my husband has just passed away. I am not sure if I can make the next session either as I am currently pretty overwhelmed with out of town guests. Please know that I SO appreciate your work and am hopeful that I can attend the live sessions in the near future.
Warmly,
Moe Carolin-Anderson
Dear Ben and Dennis:
Looks like I will be able to attend the next session on Tuesday, May 24th. Thanks so much!
Warmly,
Moe Carolin-Anderson
Dear Moe,
My condolences and thank you for your kind words. I’m glad to hear you will be joining us tomorrow.

Thank you Ben.
Dear Dennis and Ben,
First I would like to express my gratitude for all you do in service of others with much humility and generosity!
I have some questions for Dennis:
1. Can he please elaborate a bit more about the difference between the ‘I’ or Ego; the ‘I organization’ and the ” I being”
2. What does ‘extreme dyad’ mean according to Jung ?
3. This is maybe more a comment – I am finding it difficult to try to create a story following the mandala… the concepts in it are quite new… I can grasp it intellectually but I am not sure how would the look like. Perhaps it would be good if you can share with us a couple of examples where it is indicated what is in those stories – the 4 steps of the mandala: narrative belief, pinch, reversal crisis, resolution.
Thanks, Ana-Luz
I really appreciate this question. I am not clear about a lot of things. I feel like I understand… maybe… but not sure… .
I meant How the/a story with those elements would look like.
Hello students in my cognition group, would u like to meet over the phone to study? What we did last Tuesday before we meet again on Tuesday. My contact is 707 861 2039, I am eastern time zone. Look forward to sharing.
If I meet a person and condemn his weaknesses, then I steal higher cognitive forces from me, but if I try to delve deeply into his virtues with love, then I collect these forces.
What one of your lesser brothers thinks you should consider so that it is I (Christ) that thinks in him, and that I feel with you when you measure the thoughts of others with
your thoughts and have a social interest in what happens in another soul.
What you find as opinions, outlooks on life in one of your lesser brothers, in this you seek Me Yourself.
But we will not find Him (Christ) if we selfishly remain in ourselves with our thoughts, but only then we will meet Him when we will measure our thoughts with the thoughts of other people, if we expand our interest to an internal tolerance for everything human.
Rudolf Steiner. “How to achieve knowledge of higher worlds.”
Dear Dennis,
Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my questions. It was very helpful!
I am very much looking forward taking part of the next series in the SOUL COURSES.
Warm wishes to you and to Ben!

Hello, my name is Jungsook Marceaux. I am having hard time to understand lectures. It is a lot to do with my language barrier. And also I am not developed too much with anthroposophical imagination or anthropological way of word…
Is there anybody can be my tutor? Or can we set up some study group..? I am the only one who is having hard time?
Thank you for your time for reading this.
My phone number is +15752026887
I live in Las Cruces NM. And I am working 6 days at least 8 hours a day.I won’t be able to to pick up the phone until 3:30 pm Mountain time. But I would appreciate if someone can reach me out .
Hi Jungsook,
My husband, Martin, has studied Anthroposophy since 1983 and is well versed in the subject. He would be happy to call you and try and answer questions that you may have or possibly arrange a regular study. That being said, we both sometimes struggle with the magnitude and depth of the material that Dennis presents. Dennis is truly a master so don’t feel alone in not understanding it all at once. I think that many of the concepts that Dennis presents are things that must be brought into meditation, sleep, and study before it truly ‘arises’ in ones soul and understanding.
If you don’t mind me asking, what language is your native language?
If there is a good day of the week for Martin to call you, let us know. Martin’s email is [email protected] or he can try and call this evening or tomorrow evening. We live in Colorado so we are in the same time zone.
Thanks – will be nice to connect,
Sandra Cantrell
Hello to all and specially to Brazilian or South American colleagues,
I live in Australia but I am going to be in Ecuador for series 2 of the Soul course and I was wondering if someone is willing to
work with me in between sessions for a deeper Dyad work. I am originally from Ecuador but lived in Brazil for 11 years. There I met Anthroposophy and Waldorf Education.
If you are interested please let me know.
Warm regards, Ana-Luz
I would be willing! I have a good friend from Melbourne Australia living in Ecuador along with some other friends from Germany and the USA. I missed the first session but would be willing to go back if you haven’t found anyone to be a partner. I live in Lindon, Utah USA
Hello Ana-Luz,
I’ve just received Charlene’s post.. And looked again to see that mine to you yesterday was not posted in the right place. Could you look down the page and see my response to you?! Though Charlene’s suggestion may suit you more.
With love,
Sarah
Charlene! I’m not very good at finding out how to post! Perhaps if you and Ana-Luz are in touch, you might share my message? And if Ana-Luz has a dyad partner now to work with, you might like to share the course one which I missed with me. Much love.

Hi Dennis and Ben
I am looking forward to learn new sessions soon. I will continue work with my husband Martin Iseri for working dividing time.
Thank you.
Thank you Moe Anderson for sharing your time and your insights in the session! (S2P4)
Thank you Dennis and Ben, powerful story and imagery. I am with a new work schedule, and couldn’t be present. I did read the story and broke it down, soon I am going g to jump in with my diad to share on this first session. Thank you for this opportunity.
Hi, I am just embarking on this course via the recordings. I wonder if anyone would like to repeat the experience of the dyad exercises? I’m sure it would be helpful for me to do this with another, so I appreciate if you might feel this to be possible. Thank you. Warmly, Sarah
Is there an edition of the original Pistis Sophia book that Dennis recommends? There are several copies available online. Would love to study and looking for the most authentic source.
Many thanks,
Leah
Hi Leah,
I sent out an email the other day to the source that Dennis used. Here’s the link to the original: http://gnosis.org/library/pistis-sophia/
Ben
Hello Ana-Luz!
I am neither Brazilian nor South American.
I live on Dartmoor in the UK! Eight hours timewise, ahead of the zoom meetings.
If you have not found yet a partner and would like to try working with me, please do email me.
[email protected]
With love,
Sarah
Dear Sarah and Charlene,
Thank you for your reply to my post.
I would have liked to work with either of you but I am finding very difficult to find the time at the moment. I came to Ecuador to visit my family and my elderly mum (96) who is requiring more attention than what I expected.
I will be participating of the sessions but I do not think I would be able to have the time to do the deeper work I was wishing to do in between sessions at this point in time. Thank you very much for reaching out.
Wishing you well on the journey.
Warmly, Ana-Luz
From students of Dennis over the years, I would be interested in learning which exercise you found to be most useful and which you practice on a regular basis. For me, there are two exercises that fall into that category. One is give-away, also known as abc/cba. The other is the invocation exercise, which is a form of hygienic prayer. I use those on a daily basis. In fact it would be accurate to say that I can’t get my work done without them. So I thought if I asked other students what their favorite exercises are, it would be a good way to discover other exercises that might have as much value for me as those two do. I’ll close with a verse that I used to hear back in the day from students of Dennis at Rudolf Steiner College:
I’ve got the Rudolf Steiner blues,
Which exercise should I choose?
Thanks,
Alexis Mei
Good morning everybody hope you all are well, thank you Ben and Dennis once again for sharing such great work.
Wondering if there is art to be shared from the color section?
Art, collage and journaling have been part of my life, and the language of color after this session has deepened for me.
Anyways hope we can share some things.
Rosalilian.
Good day
Interested in the color of the blood , the antlers and the torso of the dogs… I went and checked information about Henri Corbin the Sufi poet and was sent to a journal called the sulfur is red… similar colors !!! Check out what’s going on with Mars , moon and the planet Earth tonight;)
Blessings and have a wonderful day.

Hello fellow participants ! I am new to the story telling mandela and would appreciate some one to practise with. Anyone interested in donating some time to me for this ? I’d like to re-try the exercises from Part 10. I can be reached by reply comment here or via email [email protected] to set a time/day. I’m in the Eastern Time zone.
Ben, I need clarification about the mandala we have to construct for the story “jumping mouse.”
When we take it into sleep as an image? usually when I construct my mandala it has words, and I include emoticons as the image.
Do i flash the emoticon images with the phrases or words back and forth, or just the emoticons?
thank you.
Hi Rosalilian,
Dennis has shared in the past that the “language” of the other side of the threshold is imagery, so images will be ideal. Given that, the more your can create an animated “movie” of the sequence, the better. This not only allows you to sense the full nuance of the sequence, but it give the beings you are collaborating with more material to work with in “replying”. Note that the “reply” is not to be expected in any normal sense. That’s why it’s sequenced back into silence with no expectation. The Work is the refinement and movement of the sequence in your own soul, then listening to the universe.

Hi All! Would anyone like to discuss Part 10, Backwards Review, Techniques For Transforming Dreaming, and/or ‘Jumping Mouse’? We can connect here, by email, or on zoom. I’m in the Pacific Standard Time zone~
Also, I experienced a technical issue on zoom during the part 10 session. My mic was not working. I un-muted it on zoom & also tested the mic on my computer. My partner still could not hear me. Does anyone know how to fix this? I appreciate any help~
Hi Catherine, Part 11 – Soul and Freedom – Jumping mouse, I am in CTD if you want to discuss this, I missed it do to a meeting. Zoom allows you to select which device you use for mic, I can help with this. From zoom left corner on you mic icon click and on the top is “Select a Microphone”
