On this episode, we have a beautiful conversation with Jan & Chip Chipman. Sydney Banks' change is so relevant to this story as Chip narrated that it is best described in the book, Genesis of the Three Principles, "... It wasn't about Syd Banks, the man, it was about an unbelievable experience that can't be defined, an experience that happened to him... When you listen to his story, when he talks about his experience you hear him try to explain that Sydney Banks, as a man, basically disappeared for a moment, and the wisdom of all ages rushed into his consciousness. If we ever forget that that's how it started, then, we will lose the power behind this or we’ll diminish the power behind this, because the Three Principles – Divine Mind, Divine Consciousness, and Divine Thought – have profound implications for humanity, profound implications for understanding the psychological functioning of human beings.  So, it's true that that experience Syd had, had those implications, but the implications aren't the thing... but I can say this: without the recognition of that fact, that that’s what happened, we do lose something; we do lose something." Jan and Chip Chipman's bio: Chip and Jan had the honor of being mentored by Sydney Banks from 1975 until 2009. From 1994 to 2004 they conducted retreats with him in Europe and North America. His guidance during these events about sharing in as deep and simple a manner as possible, guides their work to this day.
