Hi Laura,
Jane and I must apologise for only now some 2 or 3 years later seeing your comment! It’s a bit of a long shot, but If you are still interested in showing the video, we are very open to that and will try our best to communicate better.
Best Wishes,

Hi Michael,
Many thanks for posting your article! I found it really interesting. Not being very familiar with Montessori Cosmic Education, I love the way you have very clearly outlined the five guiding principles. The first one that you outline of ‘Orienting to a vast evolving universe’ seems so crucial and important to me. This very much is in…[Read more] -

Hi Kyle,
Many thanks for your reply. And thank you for the link – “To Educate the Human Potential.” I’ve given it a quick look and will need to find time to give a more in depth study but one quote really stands out for me : –
“If the idea of the universe be presented to the child in the right way, it will do more for him than just a…[Read more]

Hi Di, Brian, Bernice and Denise,
Thanks Di for starting off this exchange and thank you all for your very thought provoking writings!
Brian, I love that Montessori quote you included. I feel that this is one of the real powers of the Universe Story. I remember following and practicing many spiritual paths and although there was a strong…[Read more]

Dear Kyle,
I very much enjoyed reading your article ‘A Match made in Science.’ It provided much food for thought.
I don’t know much about Montessori education as I’ve taught in English state and a private (non-Montessori) school. However, I empathize with your approach, as I understand it, that although Montessori’s Cosmic Education was for 6-1…[Read more]

Hey Di,
Great to hear from you. Your work in Borneo and the church sounds really interesting. I thought it would be nice to talk together. How about a Skype call (or Zoom) in the next few days?
Best wishes,

Hi Rod,
Four years ago we thought we might make a virtual connection. This weekend Jennifer brought your name up as someone I might connect with as I prepare for a possible visit to the Netherlands mid 2020. If you are able to spare me some time – either in email exchange, or by Zoom – and if there’s a point in my coming to London for a few…[Read more]

Rod Sugden started the topic Mindfullness for Children” in the forum
Meditation for Children 10 years, 4 months agoCan mindfulness or sitting still provide more ‘space’ for children to receive and explore the Universe Story? In my experience it can. About 6 years ago I started ‘sitting still’ with my class of 9 year olds ( there were about 30 of them) and I found that we soon started to develop a liking to being still and silent. We sometimes followed this…[Read more]

Jane (Riddiford) and I just finished 3 days of facilitating workshops in Portugal – Porto, Viana Do Castelo and Lisbon. The workshops were entitled “The Universe Story for Teachers and Adults”. The aim of the Workshops was to encourage everyone to become cosmic storytellers.
We used a variety of approaches. These included: –

Hey. Rod. Today I work with my U3A group on the same theme. Later in the year, I expect to be back in Malaysia (Borneo) working with the same theme in the indigenous church there. I’d love to hear more from you. Even your list of approaches inspires me. Thanks!
