Sacred Path Dinners are intentionally small, private gatherings of no more than 12 people designed to create the conditions for real inner change.

They are not social dinner parties. They are ceremonial containers where a small group gathers in presence, confidentiality, and silence to witness transformation.

Why Dinner Tables and Small Groups

Transformation happens most reliably in small groups where the nervous system can relax. Large rooms create performance. Small tables create safety.

By gathering around a shared table, the body softens, defenses lower, and the field becomes receptive. The intimacy of a small group allows each participant to be seen without exposure and held without explanation.

This scale is deliberate. It allows depth without overwhelm.

Sacred Food, Not a “Meal”

The food served is nourishing and intentional. It is prepared to ground the body, support the nervous system, and signal safety.

This is not a restaurant experience and not a social meal. The food is part of the ceremony. In India they refer to it as “prasad” or holy / sanctified food.

Eating together after the ceremonial work allows the body to integrate what has shifted. The meal becomes a quiet act of anchoring rather than conversation or entertainment.

Ceremony First, Food Second

Although these gatherings are called “dinners,” the structure is closer to a ceremony that concludes with food.

The ceremonial portion happens first. The meal comes after, as a way to settle, integrate, and return gently to the body.

This distinction matters. The evening is not built around eating. It is built around presence and a shared experience.

What Is Shared (and What Is Not)

Participants do not introduce themselves by full name. No one shares what they do professionally. There is no storytelling or explanation of personal history.

Each participant arrives with one experience, pattern, or block they wish to resolve or work with. That is all that is brought into the space.

This creates equality, privacy, and focus. Everyone is present as a human being, not an identity.

The Sacred Container

Everything about the environment is designed to signal safety and depth:

• No Identity

• No phones

• No artificial light

• Beeswax candles only

• Silence or minimal guidance

• Clear beginning and clear closing

Once the container opens, it remains intact. Late arrivals are not admitted. The space is protected so that participants can fully drop in.

This is not symbolic. The nervous system responds to these cues, allowing access to states where real change becomes possible.
