The Men’s Rites of Passage is Illuman’s most popular event. This five-day, four-night program helps men reawaken their spirit of adventure and discover the secrets of masculinity, their deepest spiritual abilities, leadership potential, and the meaning of life.
The question of what it means to be a man confuses most men. Many of them yearn for the support and advice of other men on their way to manhood, maturity and a deeper connection with the divine. Initiation rites and vision quests were used in ancient cultures to help boys transition into adult life.
Men are invited to take part in the initiation ritual, who are ready to be truly involved in what is happening from beginning to end, without remaining only in the role of observers. All participants start from scratch with no plan and no prior expectations. All that is required is to come with a “beginner’s mind” as young disciples seeking wisdom.
Initiation, like life, is not a spectator ‘sport’.
It is not about religion, but about deep spirituality. It is about ancient traditions that guide us in becoming men, and about trusting that our lives are guided by something greater than we can imagine.
To live a shallow, ignorant life is emptiness. The path to enlightenment begins with ancient traditions that teach five insights without which one cannot fully engage in the adventures and mysteries that life has to offer. Male initiation rites open the door to this adventure.
