Our world will change when we change
P1140764_edited_edited.png

 

When I was 12, in response to an inner call, I sat on my bedroom floor to meditate

not knowing I had stepped on a timeless pathway of awakening

that lies dormant in us all

It illuminates itself to guide us in ways that are profoundly personal

beyond the thoughts, feelings, fears, ambitions, desires 
that constitute identity of who we think we are.

 

 

In 1987 a physical structure I named the Reciprocal Frame

arose on my path and leapt into my awareness.

introducing itself as wisdom in structural form

it brought me to the boundary of identity
where resides a transparency of mind
in which I sense a presence

Over time I recognised 
that we are not 
the activity or content of mind 

we are awareness 
by which and within which 
the experiences of mind are perceived
In knowing ourselves as that 
there is what we call 
peace, happiness, 
beauty and freedom.
​

​

Since 1987 I have also designed and constructed some

40+ Reciprocal Frame buildings and structures.

Each one an embodiment of that silent wisdom.

I call these Peacebuildings

My work is a weaving
of these inner and outer worlds.
Outer action & Inner transformation
and I now offer pathways in both
.

THE RECIPROCAL FRAME
The Reciprocal Frame

where form and formlessness interweave.

Formlessness

Formlessness is an absence of form.

Absence permeates all life,

and bestows awareness,

to the perception of  life and form.

Form

We identify with our perception of the world of form.

That identification tells us we exist.

Its solid .We can see it, hear it, touch it, taste it, smell it

and our mind thinks it can understand it.

​

Rarely does a form clearly invite us to that which

we cannot see or hear, or touch, or taste, or smell.

To that which is beyond the capacity of the mind to understand.

​

The beams of the Reciprocal Frame form a vortex,

which invites us to experience the centre-less absence.

​

The Reciprocal Frame embeds that invitation in buildings.

​

Reunion with that experience bestows peace and happiness to the heart and mind.

Be the Change Tour with The Peacebuildings Yurt

​

The Peacebuildings Yurt is a traveling epicenter of change.

 

At this time I am moved to take it on a Journey of Peace particularly to countries surrounding Russia and the Ukraine but also Europe and the UK.  I am crowdfunding to pay for the Yurt, the trailer to transport it and a vehicle to haul it, with all the associated travel  and accommodation expenses.

Peacebuildings

Inner transformation & outer action

Peacebuildings is a response
to perhaps the greatest challenge
we have ever consciously faced on this planet

If we are to have a world
where peace, truth, justice and sustainability have dominion......
We must first unearth those qualities in ourselves

Are we the ones

who are willing to change ourselves
so that life on earth can change for all.

 

Peacebuildings are epicenters of such change

Out of Nowhere

Playing with form

The Reciprocal Frame came Out of Nowhere

It is the name of my commercial studio in honour of its origin.

​

In the years since 1987 I have designed and made 45 or so Reciprocal Frame buildings.

From small garden offices and meditation sanctuaries

to radical ecological homes and million pound Woodland Burial Park complexes.

​

I accept commissions to design Reciprocal Frame buildings and offer consultative constructional assistance.

​

I offer courses on all aspects of Reciprocal Frame design and construction

Into Nowhere

Playing within formlessness

Nowhere is an interesting word,

Comprising Now Here.

​

We can spend a lifetime seeking,

and never arrive here and now.

​

So the question is how do we arrive,

when we never left?

If we never left, why does it feel like we have?

​

How and with what do we make a re-union

​

Into Nowhere is an exploration into these questions

and finally into Now Here
