Someone who speaks about Christ and God seems crazy to someone who has not been flooded by the Love of God in Heart. It is a Living Experience that the words point to. Let the mere words be turned into an actual experience today.
God,
I do not know if You are there or not.
If You are there, make Yourself known to me today.
I want to know You. I want to know Your Love today.
Amen.
One Silent Mind was founded by Dylan, who offers his support not as a source of peace itself, but as a gentle guide pointing you back to the tools to experience a heart full of God’s Love.
His work centers on helping you see the mental conditions that you have set up against peace, allowing the Holy Spirit to change your heart, renew the mind, and reveal everything that you already are in Christ.
Through relationship with God, prayer and communion with the Holy Spirit, Dylan experienced the lack of value in the voice of the devil, in mind, along with its self of sin, where he experienced the stillness of the Self in Christ.
Dylan reminds everyone that the experience of peace beyond intellectual understanding is what truly matters, rather than being caught in the pointers to this experience.
Early Struggles and a Pivotal Decision
Before being called into his current ministry, Dylan lived within a landscape of deep internal conflict, primarily manifest in his relationship with the world’s measure of security: money. Bound by a “poverty of spirit” and the relentless grind of the mundane, he felt trapped by the status quo grind. This period of “quiet despair” was his entry point into the wilderness—a persistent, nagging feeling that there had to be more to life than the status quo, a cycle of consumption and quiet despair when contrasted to nature, whom live freely.
The Path to Healing and One Silent Mind
Answering an intuitive call from the Spirit, Dylan travelled to Mexico. There, within a contemplative ministry in Chapala, Jalisco, he began the work of “unlearning.” He opened himself to the practical application of psychotherapy and teachings of Jesus Christ, descending into the depths of the subconscious to bring repressed shadows into the Light of the Holy Spirit; opening to a renewal of mind as pointed to in Romans 12:2, which states, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
Returning to New Zealand a year later, Dylan faced a final threshold. Driven by a divine “nudge,” he made the audacious choice to abandon a life defined by fear and control. He chose to walk away from a career he disliked to birth a venture rooted in the Fruits of the Spirit.
As he stepped out in faith, his worldly resources dwindled. At “rock bottom,” he stood face-to-face with the primal fears of failure and lack. Yet, it was in this very stripping away of the personal self’s false safety that he received his first true inheritance: that God was the Rock at the bottom. Despite his dwindling earthly resources that he had saved up, through prayer, he noticed everything he needed during his day-to-day experience was provided in unexpected and synchronistic ways in the moment it was needed. This allowed him to witness to the Power of God and practical nature of, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all else shall be added unto you.” Matthew 6:33
For six years, Dylan gave himself to a life of prayer and communion with the Holy Spirit, applying 2 Corinthians 10:5 which states, “We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” Experiencing intense resistance and despair throughout this period, with the Holy Spirit he began to see the inherent emptiness of “the voice of the adversary.” In a sacred moment of worship, which he describes as “a lightning bolt moment of realisation,” the “inner thunderstorms” subsided revealing the Stillness and Love of the Self in Christ behind all thunderstorms.
Dylan spent the next three years travelling around New Zealand and Australia with Friends, dependent on Him for everything. During this period, Dylan’s podcast, “The Holy Spirit Guided Podcast” was created to share the experiences as testimony of His Love in all things.
From this experience, One Silent Mind was founded; a community in devotion to God, sharing experiences and pointers of unwinding from the voice of the great deceiver, in mind, and its fruits of spiritual death.
The Philosophy of One Silent Mind
Dylan shares that the root of all suffering is a misplaced devotion to the voice of the great deceiver and its unloving beliefs, thoughts and effectual emotions and perceptions. Through prayer and communion with the Holy Spirit, one learns to withdraw their value in the voice of the deceiver to place devotion correctly in God.
In devotion correctly placed in God, one recognises that their Being in Christ remains untouched by the storms of the world, resting in the Peace of God. The tools provided are designed to guide one through vulnerability, to question the very foundations of their suffering with the Holy Spirit. Only through the Holy Spirit’s Discernment can one withdraw devotion to the voice that speaks against God, surrendering that self to accept one’s actual Self in Christ, rooted in the Father. Out of this, the Fruits of the Spirit naturally shines forth as one’s very Being in God.
A New Way of Being
Dylan’s life is no longer a quest for consumption, but an outpouring of creative service, constant gratitude and devotion to God. He invites everyone to cease the restless seeking in the world for what is already available in Him.
Through online ministry, using movies, art, music and gaming, Dylan uses the fabric of daily life as tools to connect with people of all ages. He reminds everyone that the experience of peace beyond an intellectual understanding of psychological studies and spiritual teachings is what truly matters, rather than getting caught up in the pointers to this experience.
