“Paul Weiss is pivotal to our times.  On the one hand, he carries with him a substantial architecture of thought.  On the other, he is able to breathe into that architecture a vibrant breath of presence.  In this new day, when both psychology and spirituality must be transcended by what I would call ‘soulology’, we need the contributions of those who, like Weiss, are masters of both.”

—Albert J. LaChance, Ph.D, author, Cultural Addiction; The Third Covenant; and The Architecture of the Soul

“Pure loving presence, no dogma, no pretense, no hype or masks.  With refreshing simplicity, sharp focus, and crystal clear, compassionate guidance, Paul engaged us in a difficult dyad process with ease and fluidity, and with his team, they remained a genuine, loving, supportive, and inspiring presence throughout.  The Intensive gifted me with a direct experience of my true self and practical tools and inspiration for continued practice and integration of self-realization.  I heartily encourage ALL who are deeply committed to Self  Realization and the upliftment of humanity to not miss this divinely inspired Intensive.  I thank my Kriya Yoga master, Govindan, for encouraging us to take it.”

"Was thinking of how your talk last night felt very familiar. This morning recalled that it was similar to talks that I've listened to by Tara Brach. You fit in a lot in just one hour and were able to fit in much more detail that helps to tie things about how we function into understanding! Well done and said...it amazes me to watch you!  Though I studied the body's neuro system in great detail when in my Nurse Practitioner program 40 years ago, I certainly did not get this perspective/understanding.  Thanks."

"Now I can see all these years later that the great gift of Paul’s work, both individual and in the Intensives, is that he has the skill to support individual exploration of trauma and its affects – exploring all the error messages that mind comes up with to make any sense of life and the body responses to these messages, but also to facilitate the hero’s journey into exploring one’s true nature: of being whole, lovable, forgiven, at peace and held by the Universe – inherently spacious and connected to all. The Intensives are certainly a furnace for these latter transformations. To sit again in Paul’s presence, seeing him seeing me seeing him, seeing the pure essence of wholeness in him and in me reflected in the spaciousness of our beings, I could re-affirm Who I truly am/What I truly am and return to a state of wholeness and equanimity. Now that’s a gift!"
