The Way of the Interior Life

From Intellectual Understanding to Experiential Fruits

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2

Welcome to One Silent Mind, a community of purpose devoted to the active practice of interior forgiveness and living the mystical teachings of Jesus to experience your true Identity in Christ. Just as the saints and mystics demonstrated, our purpose is to move beyond the intellectual understanding of God into an Experience of Inner Peace and a heart full of God’s Love.

Unlike the religious pharisee’s, who appeared righteous on the outside but were spiritually dead within, we point to allowing belief and intellectual understanding to blossom into the experiential Fruits of the Spirit. The mind has adjusted to the thinking of a backwards world. This can only result in the fruits of spiritual death and this deep inner knowing that there has to be a better way, that there has to be more that the status quo motions of the world. The Fruits of the Spirit that are sourced from Identity in Christ is a natural and accessible Experience from a renewed mind in Christ, that forgiveness and leaning on the Holy Spirit’s understanding provides.

We invite you toward a simple, profound revelation: your inner suffering is not caused by the world, but by valuing the voice of the ego or devil in mind, “the adversary”, over the Voice of the Holy Spirit; valuing the voice that speaks against God and your Peace in God rather than the Voice that Speaks for your true Self in Christ.

Dylan teaches that through prayer and leaning on the Holy Spirit’s Wisdom and Discernment, one learns to withdraw their investment in the ego or the voice of the devil, in mind, to place devotion correctly and fully in God.

This is an Experience that dissolves intellectual understanding, personhood and the identity of the flesh. It is a Living Experience of the Fruits of the Spirit sourced from Identity in Christ as Spirit, that is not dependent on worldly outcomes or circumstances, which implies conditionality. Words and intellectual understanding will be forgotten, books can be burnt and changed, but the consistent, experiential inward Fruits of the Spirit are what Represents Christ to all who have not yet seen. Some may never know Christ, but the entire Universe may see Christ through you: “By their fruit you will recognise them.”

We do not seek to change the world, we point to the grace of realising that the Peace and Love of God is already available in every moment, awaiting only your surrender of self and acceptance of Self in Christ.

The Foundation of Peace: Interior Forgiveness

“How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?“ Matthew 7:4

The mind, when led by the voice of the adversary, projects a world of fear, lack, attack and conflict. It projects the Peace of God, experienced through surrender and Grace, into a future worldly goal where it is never found. It makes God’s Peace conditional upon external circumstances.

At One Silent Mind, we approach this by shifting the focus from the world back to the level of the mind, which is the only level of causation or where healing can truly occur.

This work involves:

  • No Private Thoughts: Learning to be vulnerable to expose the voice of the ego or devil in an environment of non-judgement. How can a liar be exposed if one is not willing to expose it?

  • Mind-Watching: Learning to observe “the great deceiver’s” frantic thoughts with the Holy Spirit, so the Holy Spirit can reveal to you what is valueless (the thoughts of the ego/devil) and what is Valuable (the Voice of the Holy Spirit).

  • Prayer & Forgiveness: Using prayerful questioning to challenge the falsity of the voice of the ego in mind, allowing the Truth of the Holy Spirit to set you free.

  • Following the Holy Spirit: Moving from the voice of the adversary’s need for personal control and people-pleasing to the quiet, intuitive direction of the Holy Spirit, that is always available in the present moment.

The practices or purpose is designed to aid in the renewal of the mind by the Holy Spirit, allowing the Fruits of the Spirit, of your true Self in Christ, to shine through without hindrance or condition.

Our Approach: Active Practice of Interior Forgiveness

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.“
Galatians 2:20

Every facet of life is an altar for awakening to God’s Love. The challenges and experiences of the world are but a backdrop for the only meaningful work: the renewal of the mind and the choice for God and His Peace.

Our resources are crafted to integrate this devotion into your daily life:

  • One-on-One Support: Deep-dive sessions with our founder, Dylan, to bring core mental conflicts to the Light of the Holy Spirit and access inner clarity.

  • The Holy Spirit Guided Podcast: Real-life testimonies from our community on surrendering to and following the “Still, Small Voice” of Holy Spirit while traveling with no worldly support.

  • Resources for Forgiveness: Practical applications of using everyday interests like Gaming, Movies and Art as tools for the journey home to God.

  • The Community: A supportive community where brothers and sisters join in one purpose—to reinforce forgiveness through mind-training and witnessing the release of all that is not Love.
