It is with great joy that we announce the return of John de Ruiter to Scandinavia for 5 days of meetings and open mics at Moen Retreat Centre on the beautiful island of Møn.

Canadian Philosopher John de Ruiter is an innovative voice for spiritual evolution. He invites each of us to uncover our own deeper knowledge within with his foundational message of openess and softness of heart. Since his own awakening as a teenager, John has devoted his life to opening this deeper knowledge and bringing it into expression. With tender wisdom and grace, through words and silent connection, John provides us with an opportunity to come to rest while actively realizing what we really are.                                                                                                                                  "Openness and Softness of heart is the cosmic plug-in both to your own being and to the actual opportunity that you are in a body for." -JdR

Profile                                                                                                                                                                         John is the son of Dutch immigrants to Alberta, Canada. His father was a shoemaker who taught the trade to his son when John was a boy. As a young man, John experienced years of turmoil after a tremendous awakening came and went. After three years reaching for it, John relaxed in 'absolute surrender and okayness,' and found again his well-spring of awakening. Since 1986, John has developed a vast body of teachings, sharing his awakening with thousands of people around the world.      In his home of Edmonton, Alberta, John established The College of Integrated Philosophy to hold weekly meetings and quarterly seminars.  More information at www.johnderuiter.com
