Gateway Voyage® (Gateway)

Whatever your level of proficiency in meditation and consciousness exploration, the Gateway Voyage® will accelerate your ability to go farther, deeper, and faster. The Gateway process is unique. It employs a system designed by Robert Monroe that is different from techniques used by many experienced meditators, and which teaches the core skills needed in subsequent programmes.

Verbal instruction along with potent blended and sequenced Monroe Sound Science signals gently guide you into progressively deeper levels of Focus—into profound states of awareness—into the recognition that you are far more than your physical body.

In 1994, a front-page article in the Wall Street Journal reported the opinion of the head of the Zen Buddhist temple in Vancouver, British Columbia that “Gateway students can reach meditation states in a week that took [me] 30 years of sitting.”

The Gateway Voyage® contains the tools and techniques you need to awaken the hidden powers and abilities within your mind and spirit. This programme trains you through a progressive dynamic process that benefits you on multiple levels. Many report obtaining a unique state of lucidity, which enhances and expands all aspects of their lives. There is a worldwide swell of growing spiritual renaissance taking place at this time in history. Gateway Voyage® provides the means for people to play more active roles in this transformation.

The Gateway Voyage® is a six-day intensive residential programme designed to teach the core tools, techniques and principles of mental, emotional, and spiritual growth as taught at the Monroe Institute. In this course, participants are introduced to Monroe Sound Science® audio-guidance technology for integrating consciousness and learn about the numerous opportunities available for mental, emotional, and physical healing. There are no prerequisites for this programme.

If you are unfamiliar with our audio-guidance process, it is suggested that you listen to the Gateway Voyage Introductory Exercises before attending the programme. And be sure to follow the “How to Listen” instructions provided.

The Monroe Institute has a strong conviction that it is important to support and assist individuals in finding personal answers, rather than promoting a particular belief system or doctrine, thus all are encouraged to bring individual interests and concerns to this course. Though there is an opportunity to examine broad overviews regarding consciousness and change and existence beyond the physical, it is up to each individual to discover and reach his or her own conclusions within the synergy of the course trainers and the group.

The Gateway Voyage® consists of progressive, audio-guided exercises, application sessions, group discussions, and informal lectures. Additionally, demonstrations and videos elaborate on the research and effects of this audio-guidance technology on consciousness, behaviour, thought, and emotions.

The out-of-body state, and the tools that can be utilised to achieve this particular state of consciousness, are covered in the Gateway Voyage®, but that is only a part of the programme’s overall scope of self-awareness, self-empowerment and stress reduction. We cannot guarantee a conscious out-of-body experience during, or subsequent to, your participation in the programme. However, the Monroe Institute does offer guidance and information about the experience of exploration out of the body.

We believe that coming to the programme with an open mind and a willingness to learn about yourself will greatly enhance your experience. The programme does not use a pass-fail, right-wrong learning model. We encourage the exploration of consciousness from a personal and individualistic standpoint that allows you to determine what is most meaningful and effective for you.

Tools you will be provided include:

• How to keep your mind awake while your body is asleep
• How to expand your awareness
• How to enter a place of no time
• How to explore other energy systems

These tools and others presented during the programme can be used to accomplish a variety of goals.

Goals include:

• Relaxation
• Recognition and control of personal energy
• Problem-solving
• Exploration of the out-of-body state
• Greater self-awareness
• Realigning emotions
• Setting and achieving goals for your future

The Gateway Voyage® is a method of discovery where one can explore different states of consciousness through direct experience. By exploring our internal world, we are able to understand in greater depth the nature of our own reality and our relationship to the universe. The Gateway Voyage® provides meaningful tools to access these levels of awareness, which assists one in knowing that we are more than our physical bodies. We invite you to find out for yourself and let the Gateway guide you on your own life-enhancing voyage inward.
