Our Friday Night Lecture Series presentsThe Compulsion to Recreate and Overcome Childhood Hurts
with Bruce Hampson
Since children so seldom receive sufficient mature love and warmth, they continue to hunger for it throughout life unless this lack and hurt is recognized and properly dealt with. If not, as adults they will go through life unconsciously crying out for what they missed in childhood. This will make them incapable of loving maturely. You can see how this condition continues from generation to generation. he remedy cannot be found by wishing that things were different and that people would learn to practice mature love. The remedy lies solely in you. --- Lecture 73
On February 19, at 7pm, Bruce Hampson will present Guide Lecture 73, The Compulsion to Recreate and Overcome Childhood Hurts. Read it here. The evening is free of charge. Bruce Hampson has been a Pathworker since 1965. The first Lectures he attended were in Eva's living room on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. At that time, Bruce says, it looked like the entire Pathwork consisted of 30 or 40 people. "My first helper was Marianne Skura," he recalls. Bruce helped find the property in the Catskills that became the Phoenicia Pathwork Center. "I attended every Path weekend that I could. The Path Community was my family and I spent every Christmas and Thanksgiving there. I was the"Center Claus" who distributed gifts on Christmas morning. I always considered myself a businessman Pathworker, so I did not matriculate through the Helpership training program. My Pathwork awareness and consciousness exercised itself in my managerial and business responsibilities in the construction industry in New York City."
After Eva's death, Bruce was elected to the Board of Directors and served as Treasurer for a term. He retired from business in 2007 but remains active in the town where he lives, as an Energy Commissioner and the Chair of the high school's $20 million renovation project. He also manages the town's federal stimulus funds. He is active in a leaderless men's group that has met monthly now for 18 years, plus a Pathwork Lecture group that meets monthly.

Dear CSC Students and Fellow Pathworkers, Hi, hope you all had a good summer. Many, many things have been happening with the NYRP over this past year 2008-09. We have downsized and brought our working budget more into alignment so that we are not spending in deficit. Our leadership has been working throughout the year to lead the NYRP into a place where we conciously work and lead, using the Guide's teachings as our foundation. We have maintained the HDP program, have had a very active meet-up/Friday Night Lecture Series (that will be continuing again this year 2009-10), and continue to develop our educational programs that will be fresh and interesting to those who are seeking spiritual growth. In addition, we are very aware that in today's economy we must make our programs and costs of membership more financially accessible. Our Board of Directors has cut the cost of membership for senior Pathworkers in half and the cost of the CSC weekend programs in half, too. |
