299 thoughts on “Being True to Myself: Taking Responsibility for my own Choices”

1. I loved this statement and it ought to be the headlines on a regular basis, ‘Truth is one of the biggest things missing in society’. That is a corker of a statement and when I ponder over this particular statement, we live in a big fat lie of a life.

   The whole game of life, when observed from that place of truth, is a lie and this isn’t a judgment on anyone either. If this batten is placed upon us from the time we are born till the time we pass away, then we know no different. It is only when we meet presenters like Serge Benhayon, that we realise that there is another way and it is up to the individual to make it their truth. There is another way to live and it comes from within and that inner truth never leaves you, it is the thing that nudges you from time to time…

2. Well said Richard – Supply follows demand. When there is no demand for truth then lies will sell like hot cakes.

3. The truth is not always easy to accept because it asks us to step up to a level of responsibility.

   1. Absolutely Henrietta, truth asks us to step up. So it’s either a yes to being responsible and live more from this place or a no, and we can continue being reckless and make it about others.

4. Thank you Trish for confirming that we offer ourselves the best of both worlds when we are open to taking responsibility for the way we live and healing our hurts but also working with Western Medicine as an equal to this to support the body as needed.

5. Trish thank you for your sharing – a confirming sharing that says no to all the lies that circulate wanting to paint a different picture of Serge Benhayon and the amazing truth and love that he brings to all, with not an ounce of self gain.

6. When you stop seeing truth reflected in society there is a dawning realisation that you need to step up to walk that truth so we don’t all give up on truth being who we are and what we are made of. The manipulation of others will, over time, be exposed by the consistency of truth.

7. Very true, as we become more responsible, so we deepen our ability to nurture, and make choices that not only support ourselves, but others too.

8. Simple, bring back responsibility, ‘To me it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter?’

9. For most the truth of life and death is too much or is it two much? As the way we live will be enshrined in our next life, so this is what we are born with and will be in each incarnation until we understand how true healing will bring us the opportunity to break this cycle. Maybe with this understanding we can get a handle on why illness and disease or dis-ease are out of control? So it’s a true responsibility to live in a way that honours our body and treats others with the dignity and respect we all deserve.

10. Whether we like it or not, truth is truth. Not wanting to hear does not make it untrue. It is so much wiser to say ‘I don’t want to hear it’ than attacking and manipulating what has been said and making oneself a liar.

11. It’s true what you have shared about health messages being contradictory, with sugar a necesssry food for health to it now being something we recognise as dangerous for the body and referred to as ‘white poison’… and then there was the big drama about eggs and cholesterol which was proven inaccurate. I agree, listening to our own body is very supportive and allows for individual idiosyncrasies.

12. Serge Benhayon has supported me to listen to myself and make my choices based on how my body feels in regards to the choices available. Not following him or another but following myself. That’s all.

13. “We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us”. I have seen that rescuing and fixing people does not work. Change has to come from within ourselves. Support is needed to empower people, not to apply bandaids that temporarily hide the underlying, internal problems.

    1. Yes and that comes back to the tension of feeling afraid to look at what is underlying the behaviours, when actually not looking is what is feeding the fear.

14. Trish I agree the truth is for some a bitter pill to swallow, I can definitely attest to that. But I also knew deep within me that the life I was leading was slowly destroying me. To be supported by Serge Benhayon and his family to develop love towards myself has been the best medicine I could have taken. By rebuilding a loving relationship with myself it has naturally led to being more loving towards all others. And this after all is what is missing in our lives real unadulterated love.

15. One of the many amazing attributes that Serge Benhayon has is that he can present repetitively some very clear core ways of living in human life but never does he tell you what to do. He presents in different ways as to cater for all the different ways that we listen and learn. But the most beautiful thing is that Serge is not attached to what he presents, people are free to take it or leave it but that doesn’t stop him from delivering all he knows to be true by the pure grace and love that he lives every single day.

    1. Yes, we can take or leave what Serge presents, it is up to us to feel what is true, he has no attachment to us getting what he shares, ‘ Serge is not attached to what he presents, people are free to take it or leave it but that doesn’t stop him from delivering all he knows to be true’.

    2. Thank you Rachael – Not being attached to what one delivers is so beautiful and something I need to learn to observe more on how this creeps into my life – be it what I do or say to my close family and friends, or at work etc. I am beginning to see and feel how this attachment thing is quite debilitating.

16. Can you imagine what would happen if everyone took responsibility for their own health and began to make loving lifestyle choices. Illness and disease statistics would do down, health services would begin to function as they are meant to, GPs would be treating people with real health conditions not simply putting out fires. It makes sound common sense, but is anyone listening?

17. We are so used to putting people in a box and put a label on top and keep them there forever. A way of life that is very restricting for everyone that is involved. Serge Benhayon shows us that it is possible to live free from ideals and believes and that there is a loving way that brings understanding and harmony to us all.

18. Yes, and that taking responsibility really offers Love to those around us. If we choose to abdicate responsibility we just leave everything to others – that is not Love!

19. I agree, thank you Serge Benhayon for being the reflection in my life that called me to be discerning about what I subscribed to and to get to know myself so I could be more engaged in my life.

20. You have captured the answer here to our international health crisis – to take responsibility for our own health, not wait for someone to fix it for us.

    1. And not to waste time blaming another person or the microwave for our conditions!

21. “hence my partner and I don’t eat the same things at all times. It’s really just common sense, isn’t it?” I like this as while there is something so so simple about it, yet actually we tend to do the same things together because of convenience, not feeling what is true… that is what is considered normal but is not nearly as natural as the sentence above.

22. Stating what someone never said is quite easy. You just make it up. Doing so is way much easier than listening and considering whether there is something for us there. The latter is the short way that leads nowhere.

23. “To me it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter? Taking responsibility is about being truthful. ” Yes, and being truthful is so very much needed in our world so we can come back, step by step, to a truer way of being.

24. It’s such a simple comment ‘at times me and my partner don’t eat the same things’. Out of convenience we tend to cook the same meal, and have the same expectation of what dinner or breakfast is going to be. But we are different, we have different things going on in life, need different food to support us. If we try to control our food or live within prescribed rules it all just comes out sideways…

25. What Serge Benhayon teaches is self responsibility and to listen to our inner heart not the outer impositions. This is challenges the status quo whose intention is to let us believe we’re in control, whereas in fact it controls us, because we allow it.

26. Yes as you share truth is something deeply missing in our world. We crave love, intimacy, harmony, warmth, joy, stillness in our days etc. We can say that by virtue of being honest and reflecting back on truth it naturally brings back all those values, right? So we can make a start by truly introducing truth again. I love that idea !

27. One could say that these reports from the media are misunderstandings of what Serge Benhayon has been presenting. This could be viable however the reports report lies that are so far from the truth that it is not just a mere misunderstanding it has to be a complete resistance, judgement and pure criticism of Universal Medicine. And this only comes from one not wanting to take responsibility for their own choices in life.

28. Anybody that wants to know more and understand the presentations of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine should go to the nearest planetarium, everything that Serge Benhayon has said about how humans are made up of the matter of the universe and how intelligent the universe is, far more intelligent than our human brain for example. We like to think we know, we like to think we have everything under our control that science rules. It only rules because it starts with the answer it wants first then applies the theory until it fits the answer. That is not how the universe works and how arrogant are we if we do not think or feel we are part of it.

    1. I so agree, when you see the magnificence of the Universe you can see how we are such a small part of it and how we are not the centre of it as we have come to arrogantly believe. I often wonder what reflection we offer another planet… I suspect if there was life out there, they would just shake their heads in consternation at our choices.

29. Brilliant to read this today and hear that this in particular ‘how can you blame anyone else for your own choices?’ when really as noted here, we don’t like the outcomes of those choices and we want to blame another rather than become deeply honest and truthful that how we’ve been has led us there. This is deeply uncomfortable and I’ve both reacted to this and now come to a place of observation that how things I’ve been feeling recently and haven’t liked has been as a result of my choices … a bit of a ‘suck eggs’ for sure but getting annoyed at others or even myself for this doesn’t address this, see where I am and the choices I’ve made and knowing that I can make a different one, that’s what changes everything.

30. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices?” Accepting that how one is living and the state of wellbeing as a consequence of one’s choices is something most people do not wish to hear, yet that is exactly what Serge Benhayon presents. A painful truth to sometimes hear, however, if heeded it can be life changing and empowering.

31. Being true to ones self is the corner stone to forming respectful relationships in life. Seemingly we live in a world where we sacrifice our selves for others, but honestly look at what quality of relationships this then fosters and we have the beginning of wondering if this paradigm is actually one to follow.

32. Simply observing and listening to you body and letting it guide you in terms of health and wellbeing is indeed common sense and very very effective.

33. “How can you blame anyone else for your own choices?” This question is key, every choice we make is entirely down to us, how we’re feeling, what we’re thinking, what’s important to us at that moment, blaming someone else is to completely not take responsibility for ourselves and our actions.

    1. It’s our choice, we are responsible for it, and we have the power to change it. So simple….

       1. Yet somehow we like to pretend it wasn’t our choice, and it wasn’t our responsibility and that makes life incredibly complicated. Yet the moment we come back to our responsibility clarity is restored.

34. Each of us is free to choose what our go to resources are. Each of us is free to decide what is our way. No one has the right to tell us otherwise.

35. Its so true Trish that Serge supports people to feel what is true for them. I have found Serge’s consistent and unwavering commitment to presenting the truth has certainly helped me enormously to reconnect to what I feel and to what’s true for me. It sometimes take a lot of honesty to get there but it’s a humbling and very worthwhile process returning to the truth within myself, and it’s a truth we all equally hold within.

    1. I totally agree, Melinda, and it has been my experience, too. Returning to the truth within myself is, as you say, very humbling yet so worthwhile.

36. We do have to take responsibility for our own choices… And this is unfortunately what the world does not want to hear.

37. In a world where we deem it normal to look outside and get the answers it can be a challenge to accept that the responsibility over our life lies in our own hands and that we actually deep down know so many answers to our own questions.

    1. The world and society feeds the need to get confirmation from outside because that is how it can keep control. If we all re-connected to the truth of what is inside us, we would be blown away by the magnificence of what we are a part of and many industries would no longer exist.

38. Thank you Trish, I appreciated what you shared about people being responsible for their own choices yet they may often blame others, unaware it seems that they brought themselves to where they are in life. Blame cuts us off from our responsibility which is in fact very disempowering.

39. The truth is simple, clear and right here.

40. ‘Taking responsibility is about being truthful’ – yes.. nothing changes in our lives until we start getting more honest about the way we’re living, and whether the choices we’re making every day – from how we eat to how we work and when we sleep, how we are in relationship with ourselves and others.. it’s pretty endless when you start to consider all the millions of choices we make in each day – are really supporting us to be all of who we are, or not.

41. Being responsible for our own health and well-being is the key to our healing process.

    1. Anything else is an abdication of responsibility. When we take responsibility we can then work with others as an effective and efficient team.

42. To be true to myself no matter what….is the game changer, as it is a simple way of honouring oneself which is truly nurturing and nourishing on so many levels.

43. ‘We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.’ I agree that we all need to take responsibility for the way we are living, not only does it support us, it is a great reflection for others too.

44. So many things have been said about Serge Benhayon that are far from truth. I have observed when we don’t want to hear what we are hearing, we conveniently bend it to suit our own agenda and at times even start to believe that that is what was said.

45. This is great. I love that you have completely shattered every lie that has been written about Serge through your own experience. Just goes to show how much rubbish is made up for the sake of stirring up drama. It’s so simple when we take responsibility for ourselves, everything becomes so much simpler and allows us to work together as opposed to against each other.

    1. Its true Elodie. It is very easy to expose lies because the truth is simple.

46. I love what you say here about Serge Benhayon, and I fully agree,”Serge doesn’t tell me what to do or think (sometimes I wish he did – but that wouldn’t be me deciding what is right for me!): neither does he say Western medicine is bad – far from it. What he has made me aware of is that I have responsibility for my own health and way of living. Combine that with Western medicine, and the way I see it, I have the best of both worlds.”

47. You bring it back to what we all dearly have to come to and do, to take responsibility over our own life and every action and moment in it. We need to stop blaming others or circumstances as that will keep us stuck and repeating things, that we so clearly can see don’t work, over and over again.

48. I love that you were able to be so honest about your reaction to UM presentations in the early days. We have all had our own version of this at some stage, getting pissed off that someone was saying the truth.
    It is a real shame that most Media outlets are unwilling to report anything of truth when it comes to Universal Medicine. It has however been an eye opener to make sure that I do not believe anything that I hear in the paper or on cheap TV for that matter.

49. So beautifully said Trish. Serge has always placed an emphasis on the fact that Universal Medicine therapies are complementary to conventional medicine and his presentations have helped me to understand that I know my body better than anyone else and I am responsible for the state it is in.

50. We all know universal truth, and we all know that we can choose it or not. If you want to see truth love responsibility and commitment breathed and lived in every step then Serge Benhayon reflects that consistently.

51. ‘We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.’ We are the only ones who can rescue us. We are the ones that have made and make choices every second of the day, how in earth could someone else be responsible for how and what we live.

52. “We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.” The media feeds on the disasters of human living and the occasional ‘hero to the rescue’ but avoids wherever possible the truth that we are all responsible for the choices we make as this would include the media taking responsibility for what and how they report on events.

53. Practically all the statements and articles reported by media are an outright lie, completely contradicting and misrepresenting the truth of what is being presented by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. It is interesting to note that it seems that the truth is not really what we want to hear, as there are a countless number of living and written testimonials that evidently present the truth of The Way of The Livingness. Yet as you have shared, the truth is not always met with open arms, as with truth comes responsibility. And for us to accept responsibility we must embrace honesty. If we are willing to be honest with the way we are living, how we are really feeling in our bodies it is then we can welcome the truth, as at the end of the day it is only truth that will free us to be who we really are.

54. No advice in the world can make the changes we need, it is self-honesty and how willing we are to admit that some if not many things in life are not working that open us up to true change.

    1. That’s it right there Esther, we are the only ones that can take the steps to make loving changes in our lives.

55. Before coming to Universal Medicine and the course offered, I was pretty much against mainstream or conventional medicine. I sought alternative and highly spiritual practices instead, that never really helped an illness I had. Now, I have no question, issue or problem walking into doctors surgery because I will do anything that is needed for my body.

56. My food choices keep refining which feels great, but sometimes I have let go of a certain food and then find myself eating it again. And I tend to do this when I get tried especially when I have agreed to extra hours at work which turns out to be too much. When I get tired, I just want to eat more than I need so I do not have to feel that I have once again did way too much on that day! And great to be aware of this now!

57. Universal Medicine is a choice and a point of inspiration, not an obligation or a directive. We are all free to choose the lives we want to live, whether that includes Universal Medicine or not.

58. This article represents the truth we are all offered each day, that we have a choice. To live who we are from within, or to choose instead a shadow of ourselves that is governed by our fears, doubts and insecurities.

59. One thing I find mind blowing is how many would blame Serge Benhayon for things that have occurred in peoples lives, never taking into account that people have free will and choice to choose as they feel. Serge Benhayon presents many choices, with no force only love, the rest is up to the responsibility of the individual.

60. I agree truth is one of the biggest things missing in society, and taking responsibility is being truthful, ‘it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter?’ Being true to ourselves no matter what is the way to live.

61. What Serge Benhayon shares always makes perfect sense, it resonates with a deeper part of myself; I then have a choice what to do with ‘what made sense’, it is always my choice.

62. Great blog countering many of the criticisms that have been hurled at Serge Benhayon quite unfairly.

63. In life we are often not willing to see the bigger picture, instead we like to cut and paste those bits and pieces together that suit us, and this is also how we are taught life works. Serge Benhayon presents and lives that everything always matters and that every moment and every movement counts and contributes to the quality we are in. This is big, but once we understand it is a joy to learn to live with the responsibility that is naturally living within us.

64. I love what you have shared Trish. It is clear you have a common sense approach to life and a deep commitment to living in a responsible way. It is so rare to see so someone openly and publicly express the truth about their lives and it takes a lot of courage to do this. I appreciate you, myself and the many others who write blogs detailing their personal experience simply so that others have a true point of reference.

65. Taking responsibility for our own choices is the best tool to educate ourselves and others about life.

66. Thanks Trish… yes when we are first confronted with the reality of our choices it can be so confronting, and the ‘bearer of bad news’ or really in this case the ‘lifter of the veil’ can really cop it… but the fact remains that they have been our choices, and the responsibility is there to be taken, and when we finally do , life changes and evolves.

67. You raise some great points here Trish – if we listen to our body it speaks very loud and clear about what foods work for us or not, we don’t need anyone to tell us this as the body’s wisdom is absolute.

68. “Wouldn’t it be simpler if we just tuned into what was right for us?” It would be Trish and is… if we only choose it. It’s also choosing responsibility, as when we don’t there the excuses, blame game and searching outside for the answers are plentiful.

69. “how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible?” That to me is a truth now, now matter on what basis I made my choice, based on the advice of someone else or from my own justification or impulse, all choices are made by me and I take full responsibility for them whatever the outcome of these choices may be.

70. Taking responsibility for our own choices is the key to living a loving, truthful and harmonious life. Living this way would not be possible if we followed external rules, ideals, beliefs and images.
    I also would like to say just how much I appreciate and thank Serge Benhayon for supporting and encouraging me to take responsibility for the choices I make.

71. Funny (!) how the lies and false allegations directed at Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are so often the direct opposite or absolute distortion of what he actually presents – deliberately designed to set up a barrier in people so the words he presents are interpreted through a thick filter of prejudgment and pre-fed falsehoods. If people were to truly listen, afresh and open to what is presented by Serge they may feel and discern for themselves the truth of what he expresses. I trust that people would afford him that opportunity just as they too would like to be heard by their own words not through the deliberately orchestrated lies of others.

72. Serge Benhayon is the living example of how we can be in the world without imposing, without forcing, without manipulation – all the games that we can play out in our relationships with others and the deception we play out with ourselves – he presents simply a clear reflection of how to live true to ourselves and thus the potential for true harmony with all.

73. What an awesome blog post by someone who has actually experienced Serge Benhayon, not just made up sensational stories for the very sake of it. Thank you, for putting to rest all the rubbish allegations! My experience has been the exact opposite of what has been written about Serge by those few people in the media who are simply not willing to venture into true investigative journalism.

74. Yes, the support received from Serge has never been to tell us what to do, it has always been his deep love of everyone that holds them until they do get it. And I now know through this, that people can tell you everything you need to know, but if you don’t feel it as a truth in your own body, you haven’t truly go it.

75. I love the simple, insightful realness you share this with Trish, it is clear your life has changed markedly by your own choices and your connection to what is true for you. Not an ounce of giving your power away or being swayed by something that doesn’t first feel true for you. Serge Benhayon is masterful at shining a light on the way forward and illuminating the hazards that present, but in the 17 years I have known him, I have never once seen him tell others what those steps are, only inspire you to step in your own time and in your own way.

76. I have found through my own lived experiences that the only way to make changes for the better in my life is to take responsibility for my life and for every single choice I make. No one makes me do anything, I do it because I choose to; I can always say no. From each of my past choices my life has been formed into the way it is today. There is no one to blame if life isn’t quite how I want it to be, the consequences are mine and mine alone; something that needs to be taught to all children from a very early age, as I would l love to have had it taught to me.

77. I specifically remembered how Serge has said to me once “I can’t tell you what to do” probably also feeling how much I would have wished he could. What he has told me has turned out to be the best gift anyone has ever given me, as I had to re-learn how to trust myself, how to love myself deeply, how to walk in acceptance of myself, how to not compare with others, how to take responsibility, how to re-live a solidity and authority in the world.

78. Ah the smoke screens of life and some may say where there is smoke there is usually fire but what does that mean? Does it mean that when only a couple of people set about making up what ever they want about a person that that person in some way is a part of what they have made up? Or does it mean we should look back to see who is creating the smoke. We have these throw away saying in this world that gives us an answer or a type of answer that suits us. Me, I like to roll up the sleeves old school style and check things out for myself. That way I can see where the smoke is coming from and make up my own mind where the fire is at.

79. I remember when as a young man I would wonder what the 40 year old version of me would look like, would I be fit and healthy or would, like so many middle aged people I saw around me, succumb to being overweight, exhausted, stressed? I remembered this question that ‘younger me’ asked all those years ago… and at 30 before finding Universal Medicine I was definitly heading down that path – feeling bloated, drinking too much and a bit lost as to what was I doing. I look at myself now and I’m in better shape than I have ever been, and that is very much a product of developing a livingness with the support of UM. I’d highly recommend it to anyone. Its a game changer.

80. ‘After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices?’ A question worth asking, but not often asked. Serge Benhayon has certainly helped me become more aware of the fact that I am responsible for all my choices. Pretty huge given it’s not something we are taught.

81. Do we take what people say and then make a decision or assumption based on what they say? Or do we have a look for ourselves knowing that at times we listen and see things differently. I do my best not to be taken by what people say about things, especially if I have an experience of being caught out before. There are people who you have built a trust with and so you may take their word a little further but I still walk carefully into the situation and keep my eyes open so I can see all sides. We are so often blinded by the media. In this day and age very few media outlets do a fully story on any topic. With the pressure to perform and sell, quality has taken a back seat and what most are calling cut and paste media has taken it’s place. There was a day when reading media was almost like receiving a healing, you got the whole picture and integrity was the key. Now days you have little resemblance to that time, maybe the names have stayed the same. I hear that joke as well, “At least they spelt the names right” This is in response to reading something in the media that was no where near the truth and consequently this is the joke that is made. This is a long way of saying that I don’t trust everything I read and hear I’d rather find out for myself and then when I have all the information I make up my mind.

82. For the record, I have never enjoyed exercise so much in my life. Since attending the teachings of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon, I no longer exercise to ‘lose weight’ or get the body I think I need. I now exercise to enjoy my body and keep it fit. I don’t put myself under pressure or push myself hard to fit a picture of what I think ‘fit’ looks like. I let my body lead the way, not my head. This is really different to how I have exercised in the past.

83. “I have found there is a knowing inside us that we have disconnected from.” Serge Benhayon simply and consistently reminds us that it is there and it is up to us to choose to reconnect to that knowing or not. Why not?

84. Far from being anti-medicine, I’ve been more encouraged by Serge to make full use of the NHS, of everything that the amazing Western Medicine system has to offer….. but to complement this with gaining an understanding of my part, of the choices I make that lead to an illness or disease. As a simple example (but life changing nonetheless) better to slow down, stop trying so hard and move more gently than go crashing around breaking bones and constantly hurting my back!

85. Having the courage to be true to ourselves.. sometimes it’s not until we start having a go at being true to ourselves that we realise just how many things we’ve put in the way of this: all the roles we play, the patterns of behaviour that we cling on to and hide behind, the inconsistencies in our lives.. often we start to realise that we haven’t been being ourselves for quite some time. The more I simplify my life and bring in a consistent and loving way of living, by making choices that support me to feel what’s going on in my body, the more I’m able to connect to that sense of who I truly am, without all the other stuff and the noise, and live from there. It is taking a while to re-establish this connection with any consistency, but that’s okay – the more I feel this sense of steadiness, the more I want to re-connect to it.

86. Accepting responsibility and living responsibility is in truth empowering. Without it we have no access to our power – and in fact responsibility is a given because even when we act irresponsibly, we are still responsible of our choices. There’s no getting away from it – so we may as well embrace it and our power at the same time.

87. It is a blessing beyond words to learn to connect to and love who you are.. and that you choose to be true to that no matter what. We cannot deny the harm in the world caused by those who do not.

88. Hello Trish it amazing to watch how we only allow one part of our ear to listen at times. The media, which represents us on a wider scale have been great at this but equally I watch others and myself in conversations and how I just listen to a part of what is being said. We cherry pick parts of what a person is saying but rarely accept the whole thing fully. We will claim and maybe even yell and scream we have listened but the person on the other end is claiming they haven’t been heard. How does this happen? For me it comes simply down to movement, the way and quality we move in. It’s like at times we will drive the same route for years and never notice a tree or building because the way we are driving has never allowed it, it’s like we block it before we even get to it by the quality we start in. Again like driving while on a mobile phone or thinking about what you need to do you are a bit disconnected with your surroundings and so at times you know you have traveled a route but you don’t remember parts, there are parts missing but you assume they were there and you just didn’t notice them. Conversations are the same, if you are distracted you miss bits and so what you here is only part of what is being said. I know what we will say, but I did listen, but the point is if we aren’t living or moving in a way that respects ourselves and everything around us then this already leaves blanks in how we see and listen, we aren’t complete and so in this incompleteness we create wholes through which things pass through. Next time you listen to someone speak be honest and let them know back what they said to you and then be open to their feedback to you. You maybe surprised at what you didn’t hear the first time around even though you were listening. Thank you Trish.

89. I didn’t want to take full responsibility for my life for most of my life until I met Serge and attended presentations and started my own healing process. Now well into my healing and return to who I truly am, choosing to be more self responsible just feels natural to do.

90. ‘We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us’. So true Trish.

91. ‘…how can you blame anyone else for your own choices?’ You can’t but this is exactly what we try to do to avoid taking responsibility for our own lives.

92. Far from being some kind of guru or cult leader, I have witnessed and experienced for myself that Serge Benhayon doggedly and consistently refuses to tell people what to do. Why? because he knows that the moment you tell someone what to do, you go against their free will and they learn nothing. It is very disempowering and it is what many leaders do to gain a loyal following. But not Serge Benhayon. He does not need or seek followers. He leads by example and inspiration not by domination and coercion. His sole purpose is to empower and awaken people to heal and arise themselves out of whatever issues they find themselves in.

93. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?”

    Serge Benhayon just presents different options to approach life, as you say, whether I choose to try them out for myself and incorporate them in my life is entirely up to me and my responsibility. But if life does not turn out the way we want it we don’t want to look at what choices have led us there, we start to point the finger and find someone else to blame.

94. “Combine [Universal Medicine] with Western medicine, and the way I see it, I have the best of both worlds.” – could not agree more, truly a complimentary match made in heaven!

95. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” Spot on Trish and I really like the way you’ve expressed this. It shows how we behave like a child having a tantrum when we blame another for how we feel.

96. Sometimes it just feels like people just want to be entertained… and as long as the entertainment keeps going then people don’t have to feel what is actually happening, both within and without

97. I love how you set straight all the lies that seem to have been put out there about Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon. Before UM I avoided Doctors as I felt they were a waste of time unless something was really bad. After become a student of UM I began to realise how much Western Medicine had to offer and began doing regular checks- blood tests- breast checks- pap’s smears. I now have a massive appreciation for Western Medicine. I had a near cancer scare many years ago with one of my pap’s having highly abnormal cells, I was given a pamphlet that was called “So you have cancer”. I was scared as I had never had any kind of surgery. When I spoke with Serge he explained how important it was to have the operation and supported me to come to the root cause of why this had occurred, he said that if I totally embraced the surgery then the doctors and nurses will be there to support and help clear not only the near cancerous cells but the energy that caused them. It is common for these cells to reoccur but I never had another abnormal smear again.

98. I really have flourished in many positive ways from Serge Benhayon’s message to take responsibility for our choices, and to observe myself what works for me and what doesn’t. It is so simple Trish, exactly as you say. There is nothing strange going on at Universal Medicine presentations as the media have insinuated or claimed, in fact I consider Serge a world leader on the topic of self care (so sorely needed in this world) and that is one of the many reasons I return again and again to Serge’s presentations.

99. ‘To be true to myself no matter what’ now that is something to live by. I love the simplicity, no nonsense, straightforward style you express in Trish, and it is really supportive to feel and understand that we are never victims – we choose and the more we choose truth the more responsible we are.

100. Being presented with truth can be very exposing and very uncomfortable so when I present truth and another reacts whether aggressively or withdraws it is having the understanding and remembering that I too have reacted and still do at times to when truth is presented. Having this understanding helps me to not react.

101. Thank you Trish for a great blog I had not realised throughout my life that not speaking up was being untruthful and irresponsible and that I owe it to myself and humanity to speak my truth and to be responsible for all my choices.

102. Trish you wrote: “We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.” That is so true and also the best medicine ever – I only can recommend to try it by yourself.

103. I can now appreciate the hard choices I made initially to live in a different way, my life up until that point was on the surface a ‘good normal life with the usual ups and downs’, but in truth as I went to sessions with Universal Medicine Practitioners and courses, I came to remember the person I was as a child, and then growing up my feelings and unique qualities I had naturally expressed but had now overridden which was definitely not ‘normal’ for me. As I cleared the old patterns the clarity, vitality, feeling and overall relationship to the essence of the person I knew deep down began to return. It’s not easy to explain the feeling of living in an illusion of thinking you have it all sorted, in contrast as to how I live now, but life is simple and uncomplicated, joy full and I relish every moment as life unfolds a greater relationship with an ever expanding connection and responsibility, to live and reflect the truth of who we are with all equally

104. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” A great way of describing what blaming someone or something else truly is. We don not want to look at what made us ill, exhausted, sad, angry etc. There is always a message in it for ourselves, honesty is what is asked for and what a change in our life it is.

105. It sounds simple doesn’t it … we actually don’t want to hear the truth …. And this condition is endemic throughout our society … Thank God there are still people who , despite everything , still choose to commit to the expression of truth

106. The only reason people feel challenged by Serge Benhayon is because what he presents is simply calling them to a deeper level of responsibility that most are not prepared to live as yet and yet he holds no judgment whatsoever but instead has a consistent and unwavering deep love for himself and humanity…. and that irritates them too.

107. We do need to all globally start taking responsibility for the choices we make and acknowledge that our choices effect other people. I reckon if everyone in the world took absolute responsibility for every choice and every move they made for the next 3 days the world would be a radically different place.

108. To add to this testimonial, my exercise regime these days is more consistent than it has ever been (and a lot more gentle on my body than when I was rowing competitively as a young man.. no injuries these days), and also I am more inclined to check in with the Doctor, be that a health check, cholesterol or psa than ever before. This engagement has been supported by and encouraged by Serge and I deeply appreciate the support.

109. There is no tension in choosing to be self responsible, only in the holding of an untruth that doesn’t fit in with the natural flow of things. This I would never have agreed to before making more responsible choices in my life, as in some strange and twisted way, the tension felt like it was how I was meant to feel before I thought I had resolved a situation. Funny though, how i never felt resolved within myself when I did eventually get an answer, as that answer seemed to beg a doubt and so another question, and so on. Very unfulfilling.

110. I am the one responsible for my choices in my life and I am the one that has to live with the consequences of my choices. Before I came to Serge Benhayons presentations I took very little true responsibility for my life and looked outside of me for answers and often blamed others for whatever life threw at me and I had little to no self-respect my choices were driven by my hurts and self-abuse. Since being inspired by the presentations of the Ageless Wisdom by Serge Benhayon I now understand the impact my choice have on myself and other and take responsibility to making loving choices.

111. I really appreciate the plain mans talk here Trish, it does make sense to challenge the way things are, and to take self responsibility for our health even more instead of blaming our circumstances. I am so glad that I have found a way to examine my contribution to how my life is- without perfection, I do look at my choices with every health issue that arises.

112. ‘We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.’ Absolutely Trish. Yesterday I booked myself in to have quite a few blood tests done and I couldn’t have my usual Doctor so I had one that was recommended by the receptionist. So in I go and have a request from my naturopath on which tests to have done. While the Doctor was typing them in, she said a couple of these you will have to pay for yourself. I said that was fine and then I felt an appreciation for myself in what I was choosing and started telling her I have never wanted to get a full internal check of my body to see if there is anything that needs some attention or that could be building into something more, and I only came to the doctors when something was so called wrong. Now I want to know what’s happening with all of my body, even those parts that I can’t actually see. I said, it feels a very supportive choice for me and I feel connects me more to me. The doctor said, that’s nice and nodded, but I could see she thought it quite strange that you would go looking for something, but that was fine as I felt my own full support which felt amazing in my body.

113. Trish these words stood out for me ‘We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us.’ There are many in today’s society that don’t want to take responsibility for their choices, because once we do and we know the truth of the choices we make, if we then turn our back on taking responsibility we also know the consequences are of our own making.

114. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine are showing that life can be different, that we should take the responsibility to live in a harmonious way, being who we truly are. This is what is truly needed in society, that we take our faith in our own hands, and get to know that we have a responsibility for how our lives are, it is so simple.

115. It’s so obvious that the people who make up lies about Serge Benhayon and what he does and doesn’t say are only doing so because they don’t like hearing the truth of what he says. I’ve seen myself react at times, feeling exposed and raw in seeing the many ways of living in my life that are not responsible. The more I truly love myself and others equally the more willing I am to see the big part I play in life, which is what serge constantly reflects.

116. “For example, we get advised by one lot of health professionals on what to eat; then it seems like the next day we hear something different. Wouldn’t it be simpler if we just tuned into what was right for us?” So many conflicting messages knocking at our doors all the time. Common sense to tune in first and discern what feels true for us to invite in.

117. Blaming others is so easy to do, especially blaming our parents for the way our lives have turned out – many of us have done this including myself. But now I understand that I was avoiding taking responsibility and was choosing ‘ comfort’ instead. The choice is in every moment; comfort or responsibility, and when we choose responsibility we begin healing our hurts, which can sometimes be challenging to face ourselves and our old unloving choices, but well worth it as complication walks out the door as simplicity walks in.

118. Trish, your ending line captures beautifully for me what responsibility is, ‘to be true to yourself no matter what’ – and I’m learning and feeling as I go those places where I am responsible and those places where I am not. The minute I catch any blame, I know there is something for me to look at, there is something I’m not accepting or a picture I’m holding of how things should be, and above all I’m being irresponsible. I love that I now have this understanding and that I’m learning to live it – this I knew little of before meeting Serge Benhayon and hearing Universal Medicine presentations. Being more willing to see and feel our choices and their impacts and address them offers all of us a huge freedom and a way to live that is so much more true to who we are, and the more normal this becomes for us, the more we show others this way of living, just as we have been shown by Serge.

119. Universal Medicine supports people to be true to themselves and learn to live from the body and not at the expense of the body. When we live from our body as the marker of all truth we all live differently but equal in the quality, love and care applied to our bodies.

120. To be true to ourselves is key to being responsible. For when we listen to what lies within our hearts we aren’t governed by should or should nots, or have tos, we are governed by Truth and Love – offering us another way of living in a world that needs to be inspired out of the mess we are currently living in. A mess that doesn’t seem to be subsiding, in fact, it seems to be getting worse.

121. Serge Benhayon presents the truth which deep down from feeling it in my body I have known to be true for me, he has never told me what to do, leaving me free to make my own choices.

122. Serge Benhayon presents the truth which deep down I have known to be true, he has never told me what I should do, he has offered me the truth about something and has left me to make my own choices.

123. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” Most precisely explained what we do when we blame somebody/something else, we simply react to our own choices. We react to our awareness and knowing that we could have made different choices. Nothing is to blame onto another, there is always a learning and deepening for ourselves in the reflections that we receive through our choices.

124. Trish this sharing is spot on, I have never heard Serge Benhayon say we need to eat certain foods or be a particular way in our lives. It is all left up to each individual to make the choices that are right for them. Through the many changes people have chosen to make, lives have been changed dramatically at times for the better. From food allergies to addictions, many have been cured due to taking responsibility for our own choices.

125. “I carried on living the way I was living until I could no longer pretend it was OK.” This sentence resonated with me. Serge Benhayon presents and inspires us to take responsibility for our own choices in the way we live.

126. A true teacher stands with you and beside you and supports you to coming to your own understanding. Responsibility inspiring responsibility.

     1. Spot on Jeanette, beautifully expressed.

127. We live in a world where blame and reaction reigns and being truly responsible is the last place many of us choose to go to. There are industries, products and services that exist because of that, therefore keep feeding it. Thanks to Serge Benhayon, I now know I have a choice.

128. I remember not long after I had started going to the presentations by Serge Benhayon, I asked Serge if I should give something up, and his reply was it’s not for me to say one way or the other, it’s up to you to feel, how your body feels, they were wise words because it meant whatever decision I made, I made from knowing my own body.

129. “To me it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter? Taking responsibility is about being truthful. Truth is one of the biggest things missing in society, and unfortunately in the recent media articles as well.” Good call Trish. Self-responsibility is sorely lacking in society today – but it starts with each of us individually.

130. It would seem that the media did the complete opposite of taking responsibility and being truthful. It appears to me what they have done is abuse.

131. ‘Taking responsibility is about being truthful.’ A great line, the meaning and implications of which have a bearing on us all both individually and collectively. A real shame that our media doesn’t see it this way and decide to set the example with the reach they have at their disposal.

132. The media definitely does hold the power ‘to touch and reach so, so many people’ and therefore hand in hand with that ‘it has one of the biggest responsibilities to represent truth.’ Wouldn’t it be responsible then, to provide more factually correct coverage on the truth about the role we each play in our own health and way of living from the choices we make on a daily basis? This would make more than just a significant contribution to the considerations and choices of the global population, its governments and health services in an era when illness and disease are going through the roof and showing zero signs of plateauing anytime soon.

133. I agree Linda that’s such a great line, life would be heaps simpler if we all tuned in to what was right for us, and I also totally agree, everytime we do listen to our bodies both our awareness and our sense of self worth increases.

     1. Great point Meg about the link between listening to our bodies and our self worth: taking basic care of ourselves, and living in our own rhythm is a crucial part of our own healing and development. If we live to someone else’s rhythm, or the rhythm of our job, or society, we quickly get out of sync with our own bodies – and it’s like we’re sending a constant message to our bodies that they’re not worth listening to.

134. I totally agree Trish, I have never heard Serge Benhayon tell anyone what to do, and he’s certainly never told me what to do. He has, however, taught me to take responsibility for the choices I makes and to know 100% that every single one of my choices count.

135. What I find interesting in all of the accusations and misrepresentations of the truth of what Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine present is that it is so true that the only way to shirk the responsibility it is asking us to take is to discount it, resist it and even attack it rather than take the loving steps to openly consider and eventually live what is being presented

136. “In my experience Serge has always avoided telling people what to eat – all he presents is to listen to your body and feel what is right for you, and you’ll get to know what you need and what is right for you.” When you listen to your body the choices become much easier and clearer to make.

137. lovely blog Trish. Serge Benhayon has never told me what to do either, but rather has instead encouraged that I make decisions based on what I feel and know to be true.

138. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour”.
     This is such a powerful and very wise sentence, indeed the choice is always ours and we are being irresponsible if we say otherwise.

139. What a great definition of the word ‘blame’ : ‘just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour’. Way more acknowledging of our irresponsibility in the process than any dictionary provides and bringing us a true understanding of what is really playing out when we choose to blame another person or thing for our very own choices.

140. You raise some great points Trish. I agree with you – truth is missing from society in a big way. I know the more I express truth in my life the more this empowers another to also express their own truth. The more responsible I am in living truth in every area of my life the more I see this reflected back to me.

141. Thank you Trish for your blog. It is thanks to Universal Medicine that I came to see my life as the result of my choices not bad luck or someone’s fault. I am responsible for every action and thought, for the energy I put out into the world. The love I have introduced in my life I now share with others and it keeps on multiplying.

142. The best inspiration in the word isn’t the one who tells you how to live but how to ignite your own fire.

     1. Lovely said. For me these people have led me to a deeper relationship with myself in my own time and pace. I can pinpoint those people and one of them is Serge Benhayon. He offered a lot of wisdom for me to ponder upon and in due time make other choices in my life.

143. So it’s obvious that someone who presents feeling the truth for yourself and taking responsibility for your choices is not going to tell anyone what to do. I feel that these journalists have never met someone who walks their talk like Serge Benhayon and just didn’t know what to write so they made things up.

144. We each hold immense power to inspire one another to love thy self deeply and to wake up the sleeping son of man into the claimed Son of God. Imagine if Serge Benhayon held back his love, his expression or his integrity! The ripple effect this man has had on those willing to see the magic he lives everyday is nothing short of miraculous.

145. Here here Trish, on all levels of what you’ve shared. Until attending UniMed presentations my choices were fuelled with self-abuse, neglect and seeking outside of myself. Now I am paving the way to true responsibility in living a life of integrity, commitment and connection to the loveliness I am. Also, I now understand that my choices not only affect me but everyone around me, so even though I am taking care of and choosing to love myself, it is not just for self but for all.

146. How often have we made a decision or a choice and not wanted to take responsibility for that choice. Taking responsibility means taking full responsibility for our own choices, and for the consequences of those choices too.

     1. The sooner we take responsibility the fuller and more joyful our lives will be.

147. I agree with you Trish. The people who keep coming back to Universal Medicine and to hear what Serge Benhayon presents do so because they know at their core that what he is saying makes sense to them. We all know that there is no follow up, no signing up to anything or exams etc – it is simply presented and we can take or leave it from there.

148. Trish great article, I love the part where you write “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” We definitely need to take responsibility for our own choices.

149. Being true to one self involves being responsible for the choices we make. Sometimes it’s hard accepting how irresponsible we have been with certain aspects of our lives, but if you have the courage to work through it, you will see amazing results.

150. “I have found there is a knowing inside us that we have disconnected from.” the more disconnected we are from ourselves the more resistant we are to truth, it is that simple.

151. Indeed Trish this resonates for me…”I had to face what I knew deep down was true, and that what Serge had presented all along ­– without judgment, criticism or pressure – was true for me.” Serge presents the truth and it’s up to our own personal choice to take it on board or leave it behind.

152. What good would making changes do if they were not claimed and decided on by the person making the changes? In my experience, if someone told me what to do and I followed it, it would only be a short lived experience, even if the results were good. If I made the changes because I decided to, and the results suited me, it would become part of my life because it comes from me. Serge Benhayon inspires many people to look at truth in their lives and make their own choices and decisions. The decisions for others lives are not Serge’s and the power to change belongs to everyone.

     1. ‘The decisions for other lives are not Serge’s and the power to change belongs to everyone’. How else are we going to change the world if we don’t look at ourselves first and begin the change there.

153. This blog is super huge Trish. It holds the keys to saving millions of years of pain and suffering if we could add up the amount of people this could affect if we truly undertook self responsibility and self care. The savings to public health would be enormous.

154. Thanks Trish – your story offers readers a lot of common sense which is something that is sorely lacking often these days. One of the main ways I find people avoid responsibility for their lives is to look for others to tell them what to do. But this is exactly what Serge Benhayon does not do. I suspect there would be even more people flocking to Universal Medicine’s doors if he did so, just to enjoy the comfort of allowing someone else to take care of them.

155. ‘to be true to myself no matter what’ Thank you Trish, for writing your solid statement of how truth can be hard to hear but the only way to live a responsible life for yourself and at the same time for all. I have come to the same conclusion I am the only one who can feel what is true for me, I can be inspired and supported but never is it not my responsibility to discern and feel what is true to me.

156. Thank you Trish I love the simplicity of what you share, being true to yourself is such a simple thing and I love it. As my life gets simpler I realize there are things in my life that I have adopted and carried around that I no longer feel are true and as l let these go I become more of myself, and more confidant.

157. Being true to yourself is the lynchpin of Universal Medicine presentations, and not just that, the courses give you the roadmap of how to get back to yourself as well…. Talk about value for money !

158. Well said, Trish your sharing is a joy to read as the straight forward, common sense is when you connect to the ‘knowing inside’. As you shared, how we cannot blame anyone else for our own choices and it is as simple as taking responsibility for our health and way of being and inspire each other by living true to who we are.

159. We each make the choice to develop a love for ourselves that is then reflected outwards to life. Serge Benhayon has never pushed or forced me, but has just kept presenting his own love and that is what inspires. Any encouragement will not be foundational as the foundation of which we all stand upon has to be developed and grounded by ourselves.

160. Thank you Trish for telling it how it is. I love the simplicity in ‘I have found there is a knowing inside us that we have disconnected from’. Connected back to this knowing inside we are able to make conscious choices that serve us and everyone around us.

     1. Powerful said Ilja, I agree once we are connected to ourselves again, we can feel the real purpose of life and what we are needing to be doing , to equally serve people, with absolute integrity. It is incredible to feel what Serge has chosen in his life and to serve others in such deep degree. With full energetic awareness and teaching us all how to become aware of life and energy again. TO me is this is real pace, real love, real truth and joy for mankind. If it was not for Serge, we would not be standing so tall with truth , and would have no real point of reflecting light on earth. We would have continued the same way over and over again. Thank you Serge, for standing forever tall, energetically so.

161. As you said Trish we can’t wait for someone to rescue us. Not a single person in the world can be rescued, yes supported, but it is up to us to make the choice to deal with what is in our way and walk back along the path, step by step. Allowing a rescue is a false belief and therefore not at all foundational in building our own steady platform, piece by piece.

162. Because he speaks absolute sense on everything, I wanted Serge Benhayon to tell me how I should be exercising – the regime, the repetitions, the cardio routines. I’d been very active and sporty all my life, playing in teams, attending regular fitness classes and having personal trainers show me the way to a flat-stomached world. I’d hop in a pool and do 80 lengths as a regular workout. But when I started to attend Universal Medicine presentations and began to feel the impact of these choices on my body and to accept my list of sport-related injuries as my own responsibility, I felt at a loss to know how to go about keeping my body ‘fit’. I’ll always be indebted to Serge for not giving me an answer but leaving me to feel this for myself . It took a few years to really appreciate a different way of connecting to and being with my body and how to partner with it in gentle, supportive fitness rather than have my mind running the show and ‘doing unto’ it. I no longer use my body as a machine but rather honour its fragility, work with its strength and treat it with the respect it deserves. Only I can know my body, its limits, its levels of suppleness and stuckness, so I’m best placed to set my own approach based on how I feel in each moment. Serge Benhayon is not ‘anti-exercise’. He’s a passionate advocate. He just isn’t prescriptive because each body has different needs at different times. Serge has taught me this through my own lived experience. That’s true responsibility.

     1. Thank you Trish and Cathy, I agree, Serge Benhayon understands all the Universal laws and absolutely knows the ‘true responsibility’ (karmic interplay) of telling the ‘truth’ and allowing people to make their own ‘choices’!

     2. The key ingredient I have learnt from Universal Medicine in my exercise is to be able to stay with my breathing which I exercise. I used to push myself all the way to the edge (and was taught to go beyond that when training seriously), whereas now the value I get out of exercise is the warmth in my body, and the strength to do what needs to be done in my day to day.. comfortably and with ease. Its like a love affair with my body rather than having to torture it!

163. It sounds so simple when you put it like that Linda. We have a choice don’t we, to be open to change or not, no one forces us. But to take responsibility for our own actions seems fundamental to me to responsible living.

164. Your comment…”We need to take responsibility now for our own way of living, not wait for someone to rescue us” is exactly what I have learnt from all of the talks I have attended by Serge Benhayon. He has given me back control of my life funnily enough. I am deeply grateful for that.

     1. Lucy I was always wanting someone to come and rescue me and answer all my questions. Since attending Universal Medicine I to have gained control of my life and live more responsibly each day.

165. Since attending Universal Medicine presentations and private sessions I have sought mainstream western medicine without second thought. I have no problem booking doctors appointments and taking medicine that is needed to support my body with whatever it’s dealing with. This is not because ‘Serge said so’, it is my own decisions based on a new (yet very old) sense of love I have for myself, it is part of how I now care for my body and it’s wellbeing.

     1. Absolutely Trish and Rachael, Serge Benhayon has always been ‘pro the surgery’ and ‘doctors’, also total supportive of those who have had any treatments before and after hospitalisations!

166. Serge Benhyaon has presented the most common sense approach to health and well-being I have heard, I love how he sees health as not only about what we eat and drink but how we are with everything we do in life, by looking at life as a whole rather than parts makes so much sense.

167. Imagine what a game changer it would be if those in the media acted with integrity and based their practice on truth? The world would go through a serious detox. But, there is no need to wait for that to happen, as it starts with every one us, expressing our own truth whenever and wherever possible.

168. Thank you Trish, I too am grateful for Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, for waking me up to rediscover my truth, and the understanding of what happens when we do not stand up for truth. Taking responsibility for our own choices is up to us, as is standing up for truth too.

169. Responsibility can be inspired by another who is living more responsibly. It’s pretty simple. When one chooses to reject the (at times) confronting nature of someone like Serge Behayon living and sharing his truth, they simply stay where they are.

     1. Well said Oliver. I have been inspired by many people who I see living more responsibly, none more so than Serge Benhayon.

170. ‘I have found there is a knowing inside us that we have disconnected from.’ Absolutely and this is what Serge Benhayon presents and supports everyone to reconnect to and take responsibility for their own choices. A huge and much needed service to humanity.

171. There are lots of stories about Serge Benhayon, even within the student body. We tend to interpret as we want to hear, and if we are still not taking responsibility for our own choices we are bound to blame, if but so subtly, someone else. Thank you for putting the record straight here in your blog.

172. One day we will look back and cringe at our level of self responsibility and say how did we live so recklessly.

173. Thank you Trish for sharing these facts that all of us attending Universal Medicine know as truth. I love what you have said here- After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour? Being responsible for the choices we are making and making new choices to change what is not true is to feel the power of love.

174. This is a beautiful sharing Trish…I love the way you bring everything back to our responsibility, for every little choice we make in life – no exceptions, no excuses and no-one else to blame for the way our life is.

175. Beautiful blog Trish. Sometimes it is difficult to hear the truth especially when we realise that there is no one else to blame for our choices. I too have only ever seen Serge Benhayon present what he knows as true and never tell anyone what to do. In fact I have repeatedly heard him say that you need to feel what is true for you.

     1. Very true Lee. Serge has never ever told me what to do or not to do, nor have I ever heard this in any of his presentations. He presents facts, lived experiences from his body and it is up to me to process this, accept or not.

176. I totally agree with you Trish. My experience of Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine has been nothing like what I’ve heard the media represent – in fact – it’s been the complete opposite.
     Like you, and the many thousands, I’ve learnt to take responsibility for my choices and no longer feel it is ok to blame someone else because something doesn’t go according to my plan. I hold all the answers to my own contentment, and it is for me to explore and learn.

177. Totally agree with your question Trish – “To me it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter?” I feel it is not only not harmful it is an inspiring reflection for others to see someone else making choices that are more in line with the love they are instead of overriding what they feel in their body.

     1. Great question Trish and totally agree with you Aimee that it is ‘an inspiring reflection for others to see someone else making choices that are more in line with the love they are instead of overriding what they feel in their body.’

178. I agree Trish. From the first presentation I went to where Serge Benhayon presented, he never asked me to change a thing, his presentation was so profound that I found later on I was asking myself to look deeply into how I was living, and every choice I have made to change my life has been my own. I am very grateful to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine for opening my eyes, and my heart so I could make those changes.

179. Responsibility is the theme here for me. There is the irresponsibility of blaming others for your own choices and the results there of, and the irresponsibility of the media in their untruths. In striking contrast is the responsibility that you have chosen – for your health and well-being. Responsibility is empowering, not a chore.

180. A great blog Trish, this line really stood out for me – ‘ be true to myself no matter what’ – thank you for this beautiful reminder.

181. When you said you wished Serge Benhayon told you what to do – I could really relate, but that is precisely the opposite of what he is presenting – to be a student of our own inner-most, to make and be responsible for our own choices – and that’s exactly what the media doesn’t want: our world is set up to constantly feed us with what to do, and if enough people decide not to follow the media they can no longer uphold their agenda of manipulation.

182. When someone comes along like Serge Benhayon and presents the truth about our body’s and health, its too much self-responsibility for some people to handle.
     And rather than feel the discomfort of the not so good choices they have made, its easier to react and try to discredit what Universal Medicine is presenting.

183. Be True To Myself No Matter What….. bullseye… great way to start the day!

184. Thank you Trish for this sharing. ” The truth shall set you free”, I have heard spoken, and it feels to me that this is a true statement. The more we speak and live the truth the better our relationships with each other and in general on a World scale would be. Wow how incredible! It all starts with ONE.

185. We spend a lot of time avoiding what is true and when truth is presented to us we have a choice to either stop and feel it and live accordingly, or react to it with sarcasm and to attack and demean its source.

186. Hearing the truth presented as clearly as Serge Benhayon delivers it can be confronting but boy oh boy does the world need it.

     1. Here here! Everyone has experienced having to ‘suck eggs’ and be humbled at some point. Those who are more willing to do so, are essentially willing to live more truth in the world.

        1. Yes, not easy but oh so worth it. When we choose to connect to and live the truth we all benefit.

187. Hi Trish, so true, when we are faced with the truth of how we are living and the choices we are making that are harming us, it is sometimes easier to criticise the person who is delivering the truth than have a look at how we are living. This is definitely happening with Serge Benhayon, people are criticising him, and saying things that are not true, to perhaps avoid taking responsibility of their own choices.

188. Great post, Trish. It shows how self care is the way and that it is time to assume responsibility for our choices. I love how you say: “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” Very true!

     1. Yes Rachel, I felt the power and truth in this quote from Trish. We can’t live in irresponsibility and expect there to be no consequences for our actions and blame feels like a cover up. Blame stops the opportunity to see the fruits of our choices, whether sweet or sour.

189. Thank you for your blog Trish. Self Care is the building blocks that will change humanity, it may not look like the next fashion, but it will become integral in changing the face of healthcare globally.

190. We are totally responsible for all that we do, say and feel and how it all unfolds in our lives. That means if we want to feel cared for and we want to live a healthy life, we need to responsibly make all our choices based on respectfully taking care of our body and being… After all, when you can’t swim its not sensible to go out into the deep water everyday expecting a life saver to continually save you. Our Life and level of health works on exactly that same principle.

191. Truth in the media is possible. It is possible if each journalist who writes an article chooses to write with integrity, do their research and present it for their readers to choose for themselves. The responsibility is enormous but actually not hard if that level of integrity is lived on a day to day basis. Then it is simply normal.

     1. Yes Lucy I agree integrity is simply normal and therefore it is even more sad that the journalists have chosen to not live this on a day to day basis.

192. My experience correlates with yours very closely. No force, no requirement, just an presentation that encourages self responsibility and deep, levels of self care. My relationship with my wife has only change to the degree each of us are willing to accept this and live it each day.

     1. I concur that Serge Benhayon has only ever presented how he is living in a way that makes perfect sense to me and lots of other very normal people. It is so transparent and anyone can come and see.

        1. That is what I have always found as well Vanessa, everything Serge Benhayon has presented about how he lives makes absolute sense and I can feel it in my body.

     2. I agree Joel. My relationship with my wife, thanks to the inspiration of Serge Benhayon, has a depth of love that I did not know was possible. However, our relationship has only developed this depth as each of us has been willing to take responsibility for our choices and how we are with each other. While Serge has been inspiring, it is our commitment to ourselves and our relationship that has developed this depth of love.

193. I really enjoyed reading this blog Trish. It is so down to earth and factual! The media stories are rubbish and portraying all Universal Medicine students as blind followers is ridiculous. In the student body I find myself amongst responsible, loving, caring and sensible people who are not moaning about life but finding a way to live that is healthy and joyful. The people who are feeding the lies to the media have issues and those issues lie with their own lack of ability to take responsibility for their choices – they would do well to take a leaf out of the truth that is presented by Serge Benhayon.

194. Since attending workshops and presentations by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine being responsible for my own health and way of being is the only way. Just imagine what the world would be like if every one was taking responsibility for all the choices they would make!

195. Thank you Trish for a beautiful blog. In my experience with Serge Benhayon, I found a man who lives what he presents, and what he presents is indeed simple: taking responsibility for our choices and being true to you.

     1. I agree Jill. Simple, loving and being true to ourselves. Serge Benhayon presents what he lives.

196. Beautifully said Trish. I love how you are claiming that you have made your choices in life, with know one telling you what to do and so obviously reaping the rewards of living a life that is true for you.

     1. I loved reading Trish’s simple, real and powerful blog too Jennifer. It stopped me when I read that responsibility was about truth and so many of us don’t want to know the truth of what our choices are doing to ourselves and others.Trish like so many I know including myself changed her health around by choosing to live in a way that was true for her and her body. I would say responsibility is about love too , it is loving yourself enough to choose something that supports you rather than something that numbs or depletes you.Responsibility was given a bad wrap , as something we must do or be , its actually a natural loving way when we are true to ourselves.

     2. Yes it’s awesome Jennifer and I particularly connect with what Trish says here…”To me it is simple – how can taking responsibility for one’s own choices, health and way of living, be harmful to you or anyone else for that matter? Taking responsibility is about being truthful. Truth is one of the biggest things missing in society, and unfortunately in the recent media articles as well. To me, as the media has the power to touch and reach so, so many people, it has one of the biggest responsibilities to represent truth.”

197. A great blog on responsibility Trish, thank you for sharing so clearly and simply your experience with Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon, and how this has inspired you to live more true to yourself.

198. That is right Trish, no one will rescue us, it’s a belief that propagates irresponsibility, we can only rescue ourselves.

199. I love what you write Trish
     “and still I am sure that most, if not all of us have heard contradictory messages.” The powerful thing about this is how long does this go on from one generation to the next extra flavored from the last generation. It is usually a consensus to with a wide variety of people following it.
     Only when you feel the truth you just know it from then on. And this Truth is equal for all.
     As Trish says – “I have found there is a knowing inside us that we have disconnected from.” Well said.

200. ‘Truth is one of the biggest things missing in society, and unfortunately in the recent media articles as well.” Great point Trish and where better than to start with ourselves and developing a deeper honesty with ourselves and allowing ourselves to be true to that deeper knowing within.

201. Trish a great reminder to take responsibility for myself and my decisions concerning my health and all other areas of my life. I agree with Elodie that your article would be a wonderful front page story!

202. I agree with you Trish, the truth really hurts especially when you are told that the alcohol and drugs you use and you think are keeping you sane are actually really harming you. Taking responsibility for one’s own choices, is about being truthful, our own truth, no matter what.

203. That is all we are asked to do, is to be true to ourselves and the way to do that is to take full responsibility for your choices. At first this may be a bitter pill to swallow especially if we have been avoiding truth and responsibility, but I have found when truth is sought, truth does not hide and is transformational on so many levels and areas of your life. I love the the simple truths in this article Trish – just awesome!

204. Great article Trish! Why doesn’t this make the front page? It’s a feel good true story the whole world would lap up!!

     1. Absolutely Trish and Elodie, Serge Benhayon is ‘inspiring’, and that should be made front page news for all to discover.

205. The contradictory messages we have had from science and health professionals, etc, have never been examined. How is it that we have simply allowed there to be two or even three different answers that are presented by the studies? How is this possible and why have we accepted this as being ok? No wonder there is a lot of confusion in the world.

206. Some great points here Trish. From reading your blog I realize that it has been through Serge Benhayon that I have developed a much greater respect for conventional medicine. I once had a view of suspicion of the medical system and Dr’s, I wanted to think and act in a more ‘natural’ way. There was not a Dr who had my full medical history and I would only go to see one when I really needed to. But now I can see that both conventional and esoteric medicine are very much needed and can work extremely well together to help people in need. There is a Dr who I see regularly and we together keep track of my physiological health. It is such a beautiful change.

207. A simple and beautiful message. Taking responsibility for ones choices – it is common sense.

     1. Absolutely Trish and Peter, Serge Benhayon is ‘inspiring’ and simply makes ‘common sense’.

208. Trish I am truly impressed by your lovely informative blog. Listening to ourselves and learning to trust our inner most knowing is still a work in progress for me. But I am seeing so many changes in my life, the more I trust myself and the many revelations from Serge Benhayons Teaching of the Way of The Livingness.

209. We are not innocent. We choose all the time. We are accountable for our decisions in spite of its results. Nice as it could be, in truth it is not fair to anyone to expect to be rescued from our own choices.

     1. And that’s what many want to avoid, the pain of taking responsibility for their choices knowing that they made them. There is no rescue, we rescue us, by stopping, being honest, feeling where our choices have taken us and allowing ourselves the grace to choose differently.

210. Absolutely agree Trish, very well said it is all our responsibility. It is quite interesting how things are turned around just to fit a story and that there seems to be no interest in telling the truth. As if the truth was less interesting to tell. This says a lot about how things are perceived and that there is more interest in bringing people down than in appreciating a healthy lifestyle. And off course that all reflects back to responsibility.

211. You made some great points here Trish. Society deserves to read the truth not what the media tries to sell them, so thank you for delivering a great article exposing the many un-truths that are out there about Serge and Universal Medicine.

212. ‘Taking responsibility is about being truthful.’ A powerful truth you have shared here thank you Trish. I agree that truth and taking responsibility for our choices is something that we tend to avoid as a society. As being truthful allows us to feel what we are and what we are not and this leads the way for us to claim the truth of who we really are.

213. Trish, what an insightful, common sense and practical blog – I love it. Your comment on responsibility really resonated, how can we blame another for what we do, we sell them and us short as we take away our own power to address things – if we stop, acknowledge and accept and then look at our choices it’s so different we get to see how our choices work or don’t work for us and then we can see where we want to go with them. Simple.

     1. And in that stop we create space to be able to see and observe what is going on and potentially make a different choice, rather than rushing in with the same unhealthy behaviours.

214. This is something I’m having to learn over and over again ‘be true to myself, no matter what’. Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine bring us all the tools to be able to live that. Thank you for your post Trish. In the end I am becoming more aware that this is a universal truth that we will ALL one day accept.

     1. Shevon I agree I also have to learn over and over again to be true to myself, no matter what. I can feel that this is not everybody’s cup of tea in the moment but as you wrote – in the end it will be an universal truth and we all will accept it.

215. As I read this I could feel the beautiful way both you and your partner have chosen to be responsible for your choices. To bring understanding to why previously you wanted to take the edge off life, and through this understanding accepted full responsibility for the lives you had and then making the changes necessary to live the life you are now. What an inspiration to every one you know.

     1. Thank you Trish and Leigh, I concur, relationships are a part of our evolutionary path if we choice to work at true communication and express to each to be clear about any issues that may arise. When ‘the choices my partner and I made for ourselves in our own lives,’ this is truly evolving for all concerned.

216. A great summary of what Universal medicine is in truth and what it has brought to so many, the return to the true you.

217. “Truth is one of the biggest things missing in society, and unfortunately in the recent media articles as well.” Being true to yourself increases the amount of truth in the world

218. Trish you completely expose as lies the accusations that Serge Benhayon tells people what to do. ‘After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour’?
     Responsibility is something that most invest a lot of time and energy in avoiding. How much easier does it seem to be able to blame another if things don’t work out the way that we would like?
     Serge is criticised because what he presents on responsibility and choices exposes those perhaps who have spent their lives blaming others for all that happens in their lives.

219. As anything in the world lacks consistency, apart from the press, who is consistent in not telling the truth and the facts, it’s up to us to build that consistency in our lives. What better way than to listen to ourselves and making choices that support being truthful and responsible?

220. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible.”
     Trish, this is so true, when we take responsibility for our choices
     we have the opportunity to change the way we live, own our mistakes, learn and let go. Things start to change in our lives when we take responsibility.

     1. Yes missspringclean, I totally agree, taking responsibility is actually very freeing – it is accepting who we are fully. My life has changed so much since I decided to take more responsibility. There is still room to grow here I feel.

221. Thank you Trish.
     Taking responsibility for ourselves is what will bring enormous changes to our lives and allow us to live in a much simpler and joyful way then before.
     But choosing to take this responsibility only we ourselves can.

222. It is all about that word ‘choice’, and taking the responsibility to change. Thank you Trish for a great blog . I remember the first time I heard Serge speak I knew that I had come home (to me).

223. I remember the first time I heard an audio that Serge presented and knew from one line that this was full-on wisdom and truth. What I knew deeply within.

224. This is just one beautiful statement of many, in fact there are thousands of people that have a similar story to tell, about how the work of Universal Medicine and inspiration of Serge Benhayon has inspired them to connect within, to their bodies and to their feelings to feel what in fact is true for them. There are many organisations or groups that talk about re-connecting with your inner-self and inner-feelings and living from this space. This is not a new concept. The power of Universal Medicine is that is shares tools and techniques to truly connect within, to truly re-claim our inner-strength and commit to bringing not only a great and positive change in one’s life, but to truly inspire others to do the same, so the effect has a flow on effect so that people around you are also inspired, at which time it is up to them whether they reject or accept the possibility. Unfortunately on some occasions, when some people reject what come’s up when they are inspired to re-connect deep within their may be a back lash at the so called group who inspired the connection, punishing them for what was felt, which is simply all of the choices that have been made against the connection that is being reflected.

225. I had to laugh when I read “Serge doesn’t tell me what to do or think (sometimes I wish he did – but that wouldn’t be me deciding what is right for me!” Over the years I have on numerous occassions tried to get Serge Benhayon to tell me what to do when I thought I was unsure or stuck in one situation or another, and each time he has instead supported me to connect to, trust and honour my own truth from within myself.

226. “After all, how can you blame anyone else for your own choices? If you do, isn’t that just being irresponsible, a way of reacting to the outcomes of choices that haven’t turned out to be in your favour?” Yes, Trish, it’s all too easy to blame others for our unwise choices.

227. Thank you Trish for a great blog. What came to me whilst reading your blog was, it took Serge to point out the obvious with regards to my choices and that it never occurred to me that I was living in an abusive manner, to myself or to others and at first I didn’t want to listen or face the facts of my choices. But then things slowly started to change and I could see the wisdom of what I was being presented to me.

228. I have enjoyed to read about your lived experiences in response to media statements about Serge Benhayon. My sense of the media is they appear to have a somewhat lackadaisical approach to the integrity required, and, as you say Trish…’as the media has the power to touch and reach so, so many people, it has one of the biggest responsibilities to represent truth’…

229. I love what you say here Jane about that we want to blame anyone for our choices because it has not turned out to be in our favour. Ugly but true it is what we do. The blame means there is no responsibility on our part. The chances are we don’t learn from what we have just done and so we end up repeating the same old pattern expecting change but in truth things just get worse. Things change when we take responsibility for our choices as Trish says in her title.

230. Great blog Trish and the not so underlying message, which I wholeheartedly agree with, is to take full responsibility for our choices. I also agree that Serge Benhayon has never told anyone to do anything, he just presents what has truly supported his own life and asks us to consider that how we live has a direct affect on how we are feeling. As you say, responsibility is about being truthful, but in my experience, most are not ready for that level of truth.

231. Trisha, such a beautiful and simple sharing, taking responsibility for our own life and choices.

232. This is great what you are saying, Trish Mazur and thank you for bringing this subject up about Serge Benhayon and medicine. I recall in 2008 Serge supporting me with my major surgery and I really was into my spiritual new age mindset which meant I could heal it without the medics. Had I not listened to the wise words of this man, I doubt I would be alive today and that really is a fact. Serge Benhayon is pro-medicine, but he gave me another insight into why this could possibly have happened to me and like you say I got the best of both worlds and today my amazing life is a real testimony of the teachings of Serge Benhayon. A man who stands for Truth in absoluteness – unwavering and deeply inspiring.

233. This is an amazing ode to Universal Benhayon, it’s beautiful Trish. I am too eternally grateful to Serge Benhayon.

234. Being responsible for one’s own choices is a common-sense that is not so common en masse these days. However, and with great appreciation to Serge Benhayon and every body involved in Universal Medicine’s teachings, it is growing. This blog is simple and straight-forward in sharing how you have chosen to make your own choices, in regards to your own life, it is inspiring. Every single one of us has that equal power to choose and change. Thank you.

     1. I agree,’the common sense of being responsible for one’s own choices is not so common en masse these days’. Society today seems more obsessed with ‘rights’ rather than ‘responsibilities’.

        1. That’s a very good point. Society obsesses over the ‘right’ to do this or that. The focus towards ‘I have a right to do this’ completely obscures the ‘why’ – Why do people have that right to do whatever they please? ‘Rights’ to me seem like an excuse to say ‘I don’t want to be bound by responsibility’. But responsibility comes hand in hand with power and everyone has the equal ability to choose to be responsible. So by focusing on our ‘rights’ are we choosing to live in a lesser state? Are we focusing on playing small?

        2. Catherine & Leigh,
           Beautifully put, about rights and responsibility. I thank you deeply as I often get a bit lost when faced with what people feel is their right to do or have, I have always felt the force this comes with, but often have found myself numb in how to respond in the face of this force. To see this in its true light where it is simply a way to shirk responsibility is a great support to me.

        3. Catherine and the following comments by both Leighs, that’s a great distinction, how our obsession with rights is a clever ruse to avoid taking responsibility and as I can feel the push behind that, how it’s like a naughty child demanding sweets just because they can, with no consideration for the impact on others, and often we give in to those demanding those rights as we feel bullied. However this is not true and indeed it’s unloving both to us and those demanding rights. True rights are available to all equally, come with responsibility and no-one feels in any way less in how they are exercised. We have some way to go on this, but slowly we are learning – awareness is our first step.

     2. Great comment leighoflight. Great minds think alike, I agree with all you say.

235. Trish you have very clearly presented the facts of how Universal Medicine has inspired and supported you and your partner to make and live from a much more truthful and honest way. It is great to hear that there are no knee jerk reactions and that you both follow what is true to you at that time – that only goes further to illustrate the truth behind how Serge Benhayon presents – as you say there are no rules, only love and support and a livingness.

236. Thank you Trish, I appreciate your honest writing. For me, what is important to acknowledge here is how you and your partner, like many of us, went through a period of reviewing the not so great choices you had made in your lives, to take drugs etc, and that it was confronting to face those choices together for a while.

     However, once you were able to re-connect to what felt right for you and what supported you, there was no giving up on the relationship or abdicating responsibility for it or anything in the past, but actually there was a stronger commitment to yourselves and each other. What I have experienced is that when we are resistant to accepting the choices we have made, we are only avoiding what could easily be healed once and for all, simply by being honest and taking responsibility for these choices.

237. Beautifully expressed Trish. I love how you show how easy it is for us to inspire each other by simply living true to who we are.

238. So strong and clear and TRUE Trish – thank you.

239. This is a great article, Trish. Thank you.

240. I agree Trish, thank you for your contribution.

241. Thank you Trish for expressing here what does truly make sense. As I read those negative comments that have been made about Serge and other practitioners, I was reminded of the HUGE inflammatory reaction that the media has portrayed about lifestyle choices that are common sense, but threaten the comfort culture that defines most of our lives. Keep feeling the truth!

242. Well said, Trish. Your candid sharing is a joy to read. Straight forward, “common sense” as you say, via reconnecting to the “knowing inside” that we do all have. I too am so glad I have been present to hear Serge Benhayon speak. Had I not, I would not have taken the steps I have in this self-responsibility, and I would not be living the true joy that I find myself in now. Every step we take in being true to ourselves is to be treasured. Thank-you.

     1. That is just beautiful Victoria, ‘every step we take to be true to ourselves is to be treasured’ – thank you for reminding me of the joy of my ever unfolding and deepening relationship with me.

        1. What a beautiful comment and reflection monicag2. It’s great to revisit Trish’s awesome blog today and appreciate again, the blessing of ‘every step taken’ back to who we truly are. So very many ‘further’ steps have been taken since 2012, and I find myself at a place I could not have imagined then – as I’m sure many, many students of Universal Medicine also do.
           The level of consistency in the presentations, offering opportunities for deeper awareness, love, joy and vitality to our lives is truly and remarkably astounding…

     2. Thank you Trish and Victoria, I absolutely agree, with all you have shared about Serge Benhayon. Serge only ever presents truth at a level that all can understand if they so choose. Hence those who choose not to see truth at this point in time, will “one day” get it!

     3. beautiful Victoria. I too would not be living the exquisite joy that I live every day today if I had not taken the time to listen to Serge Benhayon speak, what he says really makes sense! There was no need to believe or convince myself of anything that he has said, because by testing out the livingness with myself and seeing the tangible and practical results, I was blown away with the consistency of my lifestyle choices! I was totally inspired and allowed myself to see for myself what I would feel like if I made certain choices and adjustments my life. My God they work.

        1. The ‘proof is most definitely in the pudding’ Harry. I’ve never felt an iota of being ‘told’ how to live my life by Serge Benhayon, but rather have always and am continually inspired by the way he lives his, and all that he shares.
           And yes, “My God they work”! I feel more vital and alive in my forties than I did in my twenties or thirties, more purposeful, my relationships are rich and inspiring, the list goes on. Truly remarkable, and I’m with you, the joy I know within is felt CONSISTENTLY – every day. Gone is the heaviness I once felt in getting through life – an emotional dross I once felt was ‘normal’.

243. Trish, loved your down to earth article. You mention how the media has the power to touch people with a responsibility to represent truth. Fortunately you are demonstrating just how to do so.

244. So simple and so true – thanks Trish.

245. Thank you Trish – what you write is so very sensible and a pleasure to read. I too was supported by Serge to have knee surgery and know him to be very pro-medicine. Nobody who attended the fabulous Universal Medicine end of year party and saw the fitness and vitality of all the participants dancing and enjoying themselves, could say Serge was anti-exercise. All the other points you raise are so clearly true and spot on!

246. Love your post Trish. 🙂
