Kabbalah

Kabbalah is a powerful tool for self-realization, for exploring important ideas about life and for discovering the profound truths at the heart of our existence. Based on a map of consciousness called the Tree of Life, Kabbalah is central to the Western Mystery Tradition and Jewish Mysticism but is an ancient system that transcends all belief systems and is of practical relevance to modern life through engendering a greater sense of freedom and fulfillment to our lives.

Subud

Subud is not a religion but a spiritual practice which enables people of all religious backgrounds and beliefs to worship together. There is no teaching in Subud, and nothing that you have to believe. The Subud practice, called the latihan, consists essentially of learning to surrender to the power of God (or 'a higher force' if you prefer) and follow whatever happens.

In that way you could say it's a bit like the Quakers, but much more active and noisy. We usually sit quietly for about ten minutes beforehand, but once the latihan starts people may do all sorts of things, such as walk about, sing, shout, dance, wave their arms and so on. The aim is to be able to follow the movements without thought or hesitation.

The group latihan is usually held twice a week and lasts about half an hour. Men and women always do it separately. In Glastonbury the men meet on Monday and Friday evenings, and the women on Monday evening and Thursday during the day. You can also do the latihan on your own sometimes, once it is established. Anyone over 17 can become a Subud member, but there is usually a waiting period of up to three months to give the applicant time to find out more about Subud and to be sure that they really want to follow this spiritual path.

We always welcome enquiries, but there is no pressure to join. We don't proselytize. Subud, like any genuine religious practice, is for the long haul, and the real benefits take time to manifest. There are no membership fees, but most members give small voluntary contributions to cover the hire of the hall and other overheads.
