continuations of Lifewave

There have been several continuations of the Lifewave cult after it broke up in 1986. I will try to outline them below, not because I want people to contact them. They are better avoided in my opinion.

1. John Yarr moved from Slindon in the south of England to Leeds in around 1986. It seems he has a new movement, 1Meditation. This movement has started teaching meditation including what they call their 'Advanced (light & sound) Course' for £250. They have meetings at Global Tribe (a café and shop run by Bev and Mario), Hyde Park Book Club and the Friends Meeting House in Roundhay.
2. I don't know why Yarr moved to Leeds, it seems his most loyal followers were Nick and Mary Howell in Manchester. They have their own movement called Lightwave. They liked to give mass initiations. They kept up contact with Yarr.
3. Mark Zaretti had contact with Nick and Mary Howell and also John Yarr. He wasn't happy with what they were doing so struck out on his own. He is based in Leeds. His organization is called The Way Back Group.
4. Paul Bennet set up The Wirral Meditation Centre in 1986. He had been quite high up in Liverpool Lifewave. He has been initiating people. He called himself Yogi Paulo and sometimes Paulo Stellini. He spent a lot of time in Malta and taught there too. Not just meditation but also Qigong. He invited Nick Howell to Merseyside to do one of the mass initiations. He died in Malta in 2022.

There are hundreds of photos of Paul Bennett on the Internet and none of Nick or Mary Howell.

Some people might want to contact one of these groups so that they can get initiation. You don't need initiation though to meditate on the inner light. I don't believe that it is a spiritual energy that you can tap into. Often when people meditate they become aware of a disc of light. Usually white. When they turn their attention towards it, it disappears.

In time you can observe it and it can grow so that you are surrounded by all pervading white light. There can be a sound too and even an aroma. The value of it is that it can help you to get into altered states of consciousness and enter into each one more deeply. You don't need any of these people to put you in contact with the inner light or with ascended masters or whatever.

This is the stupid little logo that 1Meditation have got for themselves.

Let's see how long this cult lasts. Probably not long when people find out about him. Probably up to his old tricks.
