Born Richard Timothy Feild, like me was given a spiritual name, Reshad. (Meaning?)
My connecting to Reshad began many years before we met.
He had met YB, attended the healing center in AZ, where he often jokes about the sat kriya.’
As a British man, he was good at making jokes about most anything including himself. He called me guru guru.
This was my huge introduction to the Europeans.
6 day conference in SF. RF asked me to teach. No time to prepare
He gave so much. His love was unconditional. I was confused for a long time how he referred to the students as his friends. I took years before I began to understand. Basically rejecting the idea of having students. I discovered many similarities between him and YB. YB stated he did not come to the west to collect students, but to train teachers.
Discovered RF not only did not stop me from teaching, he encouraged it. He had a relationship with YB, attended the healing center in AZ. And with permission, asked YB to teach some basic kriyas in the Living School. Now Reshad had a qualified teacher to do exactly that. This was a huge surprise and reminder how spirit does work in mysterious ways.
6 day conference – taught by surprise.
