Every now and then, maybe only a few times in a lifetime, you meet someone who awakens a genuine desire to become their student. Early in chiropractic college, I kept hearing about a French chiropractor I needed to listen to. My friend Jason insisted I go hear him speak, so I did. Those eight hours changed the direction of my life.
For the next four years at Life University, I attended every seminar Arno taught within a 300 mile radius. His adjusting seminars, his philosophy seminars, his week-long Masterpiece Training Seminars in Durango. If Arno was teaching, I showed up. He introduced me to spirituality, quantum physics, the concept of the world as a hologram, and the idea that our thoughts attract the events that become our reality. No single paragraph can describe the impact he had on me. To this day, Arno still lives inside me. He has been and always will be a mentor.
Recently, he wrote a book called The Cafe of Life. Reading it brought me back to those early days of awakening to a bigger and more intelligent universe. The book is about Vitalism. Before Arno, I knew nothing about it. I grew up in a purely mechanistic world. My mother was a math teacher and my father was a physicist. Spirituality and meditation were not part of our home.
As I read his book today, I am reminded of the vitalistic world that exists right in front of us. And in only a few days, so many events have shown up to support my mission and make my path clearer. When the heart opens, the Universe provides. My vibrational frequency feels elevated again, and none of what has happened feels like a coincidence.
Arno, thank you for teaching, for serving, and for inspiring so many. You have always been a humble guide to humanity. You never chased attention, yet you always rose to the moment when called. From the day I met you, you carried none of the ego that often follows success. You are pure, and as close to light as anyone I have met in this world.
Love,
Phil
