There Is a Deep Wisdom that Animates Everything

Genius Stone Partners brings you deep understandings of the flow that animates nature, human life and the needs and wants of people and cultures.  With mastery of what we call "The Heartbeat of Life," our leaders learn to consciously collaborate with the Life Force and influence its "being" and direction.  While each adventure is designed in collaboration with the participants, the following describes some of our Mastery Programs.

7 Day Deep Reflection: Living Inside the Cradle of Nature


Genius is conscious collaboration with the natural flow of intelligence that creates life itself. It is available to everyone.  Genius is a natural state of mind that is blocked by being overly attached to our thoughts.  Though most do not unleash their genius, the process to discover and manifest genius is simple yet profound.  The shift in your state of mind will create happiness, wealth and well-being. You will experience a simple yet profound life.

Time to Practice Your Natural Genius

As we work together deep in nature, this profound intelligence seems easier to access.  As we begin to let go of the thoughts that have been racing around in our heads, insights that have been waiting inside us suddenly appear.  Seven days allows both time for deep insight and practice.  Once you have made a deep shift in the way you want to live, having time and support to practice living in this new way anchors it deep inside you.

Traveling Together to Find and Manifest our Genius

We travel together in what we call “Discovery Teams” of seven people.  You can join a team we are developing, or can bring your team with you.  In either case the team will help you unleash your natural genius and find a peaceful life that manifests wisdom, wealth and well-being.

Integrating Ancient Wisdom: Lessons From 1000 Years of Success

Bali is the largest surviving mass farming system from the ancient world. This manifest wisdom has sustained the island of Bali for a thousand years.  Great wisdom created this living Paradise and can help us create our own living Paradise in the post-modern world.

Learn From Bali’s Happy People and Leaders

The people of Bali are known for their beautiful happy state of mind. We will integrate them and their spiritual leaders into our adventure as we discover our own deepest happiness and wisdom.

 

National Geographic Expert will Share History and Technology

A national Geographic expert will join us and help us explore how this self-sustaining system was created and maintained for a thousand years.  They will take us to all the most serene and interesting sites on the island.

Manifest Paradise into Your Life in the Post Modern World

As insight leads to commitment, we will work together to manifest this wisdom into our lives and develop plans to integrate this self-sustaining wisdom into our organizations.  Each discovery team will meet quarterly to support success and discover new realities in leadership and living.  Each year we will travel to a new site of ancient wisdom. You can join a team we are developing or can bring your team with you.

GENIUS STONE WORLDWIDE DISCOVERY TEAMS

The world is scattered with the ruins of great civilizations whose wisdom has fascinated scholars for centuries. Ancient desert ruins that synchronize with the cycles of the stars, agricultural systems that have sustained a large civilization for a thousand years and monuments whose creation baffles modern science.

 What wisdom created these civilizations and how can we distil that wisdom to make our civilization even greater? Better yet how can we take the deepest wisdom from each civilization and build upon ours to create something that has never before existed. This is the adventure we ask world leaders to join.


We are interested in working with successful leaders who would like to give something back to build a more abundant and vital world for their children and grandchildren. Much of the leadership in the world is not working effectively both at the top and bottom of the social strata. There is a growing chasm between the classes and, without a healthy middle class; free market systems do not work. Our goal is to find the deepest wisdom and integrate it into the social an economic fabric of businesses and nations.
We do not have the answers, but we do have a methodology for discovery. We will combine wisdom from the ancients and the natural intelligence we all tap into that is beyond explanation.

Methodology

We intend to explore ancient ruins with teams of world leaders, to discover wisdom from the past and present day and integrate both into the leadership of communities, free market systems, countries and global businesses; both mature and emerging. 

These adventures will be fun, wondrous and insightful. Our purpose will be to deepen our wisdom through personal and historical exploration and turn that wisdom into social and economic reality. Only successful leaders, who are passionate about journeying into the unknown to discover wisdom, and apply that wisdom to make the world a better place, will be invited. 

These teams of leaders (Exploration Teams) will meet each year at different sites, quarterly at local sites and work together during the year to improve the performance of their organizations. They will be asked to share all they learn with their "Exploration Team" and with teams of people helping to improve the lower strata of their cultures. We will be there to facilitate this process; returning profits to our members, ourselves and worthy organizations throughout the world.

Learning from History

Each annual adventure will take place at a different ancient site of wisdom. Transformation facilitators, guides from National Geographic and local leaders, will assist each Discovery Team. We will camp on the site in order to fully experience the energy and beauty of the architecture. The history and unique characteristics of the site will be shared and we will launch into a dialogue with the purpose of understanding the deepest wisdom offered by insight into the history and exploration of the ruins themselves.

Multiplying the Wisdom of the Team

Team members will come prepared to share their deepest understandings about life. The site's peaceful setting will create a reflective and expansive environment for reflection and exploration. As each person's wisdom unfolds, it will be added to the wisdom of the team. The facilitation will guide towards expansion and integration. The discoveries of each day will be captured and used as a foundation for discovery during the next day.

Taking It Home

Towards the end of the retreat, the discussion will be directed towards implementing the discovery into the organizations each of the team member’s lead. Agreements will be made in regard to mutual support and coaching.

Investment

As Discovery Teams are established, we will determine the sites we wish to visit, develop cost estimates for travel and lodging, and costs for facilitation and investment in the Genius Stone Institute. This will be structured like a small business whose purpose is to promote learning and give back lessons learned and profits to worthy causes.
