Conference of The Divine Silence

"So many times, people find themselves stuck in the glamour of love, thinking it is the pure love they have been seeking. Unconditional love is not found in any outer form; you must first go to your Soul where pure love resides and then be silent. In that silence, you can change the course of your life and determine where you're going."

- John-Roger, DSS (From: "The Power of Love,")

Institute for Individual World Peace (IIWP)

Wednesday, June 24, 2026 | 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm PT

"Breathe in peace. As tensions and worries drop away, peace starts radiating through your body."

Breathe in peace. As tensions and worries drop away, peace starts radiating through your body. Peace is very much alive and present. As you drop the pressures of your life, you’ll find that peace is present, beyond the distractions. It was always there. -John-Roger, DSS

Peace is a choice. We gather, as those who choose peace, to let go of what blocks us from experiencing the peace that is our nature. When we get in touch with that inner peace, we look at ways to expand that experience inwardly and extend it out as a blessing to this planet. Through our awareness of peace, we can become a walking blessing, living from day to day, as witnesses to the peace that is always present.

Many people are becoming aware of a fervent yearning for peace. We have the ability to make peace happen. We can put our focus, attention and loving into declaring peace instead of war with every choice we make. Do this, one small step at a time, one moment at a time. -John-Roger, DSS

Entering the Presence of Divine Silence

9:00 am – 6:00 pm PT

Look and realize peace. See it. Know it. Feel it tangibly, kinesthetically. Where there is clamor, where there is noise, where there is distance away from the peace, be still. The quality of this peace has a quiet in it that resonates to all things and all people. So, we are in communion in the stillness. The silence has a way of speaking all of our names, to realize we are all loved. We are all adored. We are all family together. - John Morton.

You are warmly invited to Entering the Presence of Divine Silence—a heartfelt gathering of friends and gifted presenters inspired by the legacy of John-Roger.

Together, we explore stillness, reflection, deep listening, and meaningful connection. Through 90-minute interactive sessions, a gentle pathway opens—revealing the quiet presence within each of us and the shared peace that connects us all.

Join for a single session or immerse yourself in the full experience. Ample breaks between presentations offer space to reflect, integrate, and move with ease.

For over 50 years, John-Roger guided others to discover the divine within and to live in greater loving, peace, service, creativity, and caring. In honor of his legacy, organizations he founded—including the Institute for Individual & World Peace, Heartfelt, Insight Seminars, and the University of Santa Monica—offer special experiential sessions throughout the gathering.

• Wednesday: Institute for Individual & World Peace (IIWP)
• Thursday: Heartfelt, Insight, and University of Santa Monica

Each session is offered as a complimentary gift—an opportunity to pause, reconnect, and experience the deeper stillness already present within you.

As a culminating experience, you are invited to a special 2-hour Mystical Traveler Sharing with John Morton, who is known as the Blessings man. John offers a profound experience of being in the presence, silence, and intimate connection with the beloved.

Come as you are. Pause. Breathe. Listen. And rediscover the peace that is already within you.

"When I am silent, I fall into that place where everything is music." – Rumi

“When I am silent, I fall into that place where everything is music.” - Rumi

If you know that you are one with the Source, then you don’t feel tense or needy. You don’t feel lack or pressure. You’re poised. You’re silent. You’re peaceful. You can work harmoniously with anything that comes your way and then let go, because you are free. - John-Roger, D.S.S.

Often in the midst of a calamity there is one who is silent, who is not involved, who is holding the energy, the battery power to anchor for the disturbance to quiet itself. In the prayer, “I love you,” that is the truth. - John Morton

You are warmly invited into The Silence of God—a two-day immersive workshop devoted to the quiet, living presence within.

Silence is a sacred doorway.
It is a way of connecting with the Divine, with Spirit, and with the truth of who we are. In silence, we remember our oneness with God. We rediscover a peace that is not dependent on circumstances—a stillness that is steady, spacious, and deeply alive.

Together, we will enter a gentle, intentional space to explore and expand our awareness. Through inspired teachings, contemplative practices, and shared presence, you are invited to experience your own unique relationship with the Silence of God.

This workshop offers:
• A sacred and supportive space for inner exploration
• Rich inspirational material to listen to and reflect upon
• Practical methods and spiritual tools to deepen your experience
• Opportunities for discovery, connection, and quiet renewal

As we gather with a shared intention, something opens.
Clarity arises. The heart softens. Awareness deepens.
And within that openness, the silence begins to reveal its quiet wisdom.

We invite you to step into this space…
to listen more deeply…
to reconnect with the stillness that is already within you.

Join us on this beautiful journey into the mystery seeded in the sweetness of Silence.

(DAY 2) The Silent Ones Party - Saturday, June 27, 2026, from 7:30 - 10:00 pm

Following The Silence of God workshop, and dinner, you are invited to stay and enjoy an hour or so of sacred contribution, celebration, movement, and opportunities to connect.

Contribute a heartfelt story, poem, or song on the theme of silence. Tell a joke, play an instrument of your choosing, or dance like nobody else is watching. If you are called to be in the energy of the Silent Ones and let your divine nature shine through, in a room filled with friends & family in fellowship, you are welcome with open arms.
