‘Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.’

Albert Einstein, one of the most influential physicists of the 20^th century and a world-renowned scientist, was also deeply religious. It was he who said that:

‘science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind’

He recognised the profound interconnectivity of these two disciplines, in the process exposing the futility and utter ignorance and arrogance of those who choose to hold either one supreme.

Neither science nor religion alone can provide
all the answers to life and the world we live in.

Today, there are those who champion science as the only way to know and understand anything and who give no credence to other ways of knowing outside that sphere. Their dogmatic and fundamentalist scientific perspective is as rigid and ignorant as that of the most ardent religious fundamentalists they decry – a case of the blind challenging the blind.

Earlier in 2015 Universal Medicine delivered its second ‘Retreat’ of the three set for the calendar year. The five-day Retreat titled ‘The Livingness’ was held at the popular seaside town of Lennox Head, Australia.

The Retreat experience focussed on the rich and deeply philosophical teachings and presentations delivered by principal presenter Serge Benhayon. Facilitating extensive group work, development and engagement, Serge consistently provided the platform, which allowed for many profound revelations pertaining to many aspects of life, with valuable sharing’s and discussions opening the way for more. The week was extremely well received by all, and a highlight for many.

Judith McIntyre's bequest to Serge Benhayon for her community: Court Upholds Dying Woman’s Last Wishes

Judith McIntyre legacy honoured.

Judith McIntyre ‘knew exactly what she was doing’ the Supreme Court held when she made her last will and testament. She gave her children generous bequests of $250,000 each from her estate of $1.1 million dollars to support them. The remaining amount, after various legal and other costs, was bequeathed to Serge Benhayon, because Judith McIntyre wished for him to complete the building of a teaching hall as a lasting legacy for her community and she knew that the bequest to him would be used for everyone. Judith McIntyre had made her intentions known to her children before her death and also to those around her.

Her adult children, Seth (41) and Sarah McIntyre (34), recently failed in their bid to overturn the will and have the bulk of the estate assigned to themselves against a background where they had promised their mother that they would not make any challenge to her will and her intentions that her estate be used to benefit her community. However, they abandoned their promises to their dying mother, and her wish for a lasting legacy, by seeking to overturn the will in Supreme Court proceedings.

The Supreme Court has honoured their mother’s wishes and held that the deceased’s bequest to her adult children was adequate.

Universal Medicine and its international events for 2015 have been nothing short of amazing. Coming off from another successful and full November visit the UK and European students have ended the year in great esteem.

As we near towards the end of 2015 it seems only fitting to revisit the memorable UK Retreat experience and again reconnect with the life changing 5 days that was the UK Retreat – delivered and presented by Serge Benhayon and team from Universal Medicine.
