Here is what some of the participants of the Spring 2006 Enlightenment Intensive said about Reinier's work:


"... I am absolutely loving the clearness of consciousness that I have been experiencing since the intensive. (less noise coming from my mind) I am finding it much easier to notice what is actually MY truth. The work is now to live from that. Thank you Reinier, for the tremendously loving support that you have given so freely."

Brian P.

"This has been an incredible experience!

Reinier is a master!  He caught me when my contemplations slipped off  course, encouraged me when I was feeling frustrated, and inspired me  to go still deeper when I thought I had discovered it all!

What a wonderful workshop!  Not only did I experience a taste of the  Truth, I also discovered many smaller, more practical truths about  how I can change my life for the better."

Mike G.


"Renier's (24 hour a day)deep care for his participants was a model for all who aspire to serve others in the facilitation of workshops and retreats."

Jean-Pierre L.


"Reinier puts his heart and his soul into this work and it truly shows. This is a man you can trust. He understands the terrain and I felt 100% safe with him behind the driver's wheel. Reinier will go the distance to make sure that your experience is absolutely worthwhile. I was impressed with his ability to give each individual the support that he or she needed.

On this Enlightenment Intensive I found out more about myself than I have in years of searching. I have a new understanding of who I truly am and I feel a new deep inner strength. I have a vision for my life that I seemed to be searching for. I will most certainly sign up for the next Enlightenment Intensive that Reinier leads. This man knows his stuff - He really does - and he's a natural at helping others learn about themselves and about life in a safe supportive environment. I am amazed at how much wiser I feel after four days."

Anne R.


"I gained so such after this E.I. with Rainier.  The clarity in guidance from him that I received was invaluable.  The clarity I gained within myself is hard to say in words, but I feel better and more grounded within myself than I ever have. 

It's amazing to see the differences I am seeing in my life.  I'm in the flow of life more, and people are responding even more positively than they were before.  I also feel a deeper sense of trust within myself and in attracting things to me.  Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!"

Kathy R.


There are many people I know out there doing all kinds of programs or body work or energy work, etc, and by knowing who they are, most of them I would not do what they offered.  YOU on the other hand, are the opposite.  If you were putting something on, I would go strictly because it was you who was offering it.  You are a man of great integrity, and I know you have done what it takes to have this level of mastery and offer it to others.

Reinier has worked with me on many Enlightenment Intensives.  He is deeply committed supporting people in the work and to the truth itself. I know him as a man I can completely trust to do what he commits to doing. He is a brilliant, with it, tuned in and remarkably able individual. He brings fresh and positive energy to whatever he does and to whoever he touches. Anyone choosing to work with him will be well served.

I still remember the image/ vision / dream I had of talking to you, and saying" I am nothing" and you laughing at me. this was my biggest fear at the time that I was nothing. Your laughter was exactly what was needed to emphasize how absurd my opinion of who my ego though I really was. You are an amazing man who I admire. Your ability to be totally be in the moment is inspiring to me. Again THANK YOU for being a part of my life. You are my bench mark of success.

Enlightenment Intensive Participant

I have known Reinier for over 8 years as a colleague and personal friend.

I have worked with him to facilitate a number of Enlightenment Intensives in this time and witnessed the admirable work that he has done with countless participants. I know of very few Enlightenment Masters like Reinier who have so fully and for so long put their heart and soul into the their training and preparation to give Enlightenment Intensives, such that he was already demonstrating a high degree of mastership even before presenting his first intensive. Consequently he combines a unique capacity: to run a logistically impeccable workshop, to disarm, in an adroit and light-handed manner, the seemingly insurmountable barriers on the path and to inspire participants with absolute certainty to reach the ultimate goal of Truth.

Anyone who takes an Enlightenment Intensive from Reinier will very quickly see him as a skilled, dedicated and heart-present ally.

As an Enlightenment Master myself, I would not only recommend his intensives but I would have no hesitation in being a participant on one of his workshops.

The facilitating was impeccable and of the highest integrity. Humour often allowed the Truth to slip in before the "guardsman" of my mind had a chance to raise the alarm!

I have spent much of my life searching for “the Truth” – not more stories, not more opinions. Not even my own opinion. Rather I sought the Truth that was Absolute. Through the process of the Enlightenment Intensive I have had direct experience of this Truth.

I learned many things about my personal power. I learned to be two ears and NO mouth! I experienced “who I am” and WHERE that is taking me.
Reinier and his staff... they were wonderful, helpful, and caring

Reinier has a presence that puts one at ease right away. It is obvious from the first moments of meeting that he is with YOU in the room and not on some other agenda. This connection came through the first time I met him in his capacity as an assistant at an Enlightenment Intensive weekend. I knew right away that his heart was in the right place and that his integrity was beyond reproach. His sense of humour and playful nature also shine through and is always appropriate for the situation.

I had the good fortune to be in his Virgin Enlightenment Intensive (his first time as master) and it was an experience I will always treasure. The strength of his love for those participating in the E.I. was obvious and his guidance through the process had the delicate touch of a True Master. He is rather humble so I am not sure that he would express it that way himself.

However, the results speak for themselves. He created a space along with his well-chosen staff that allowed amazing things to happen. I personally came away from that weekend with a profound and life-changing knowledge that will benefit myself, my family and all those I connect with for the rest of my life and beyond. I would not hesitate for a nano-second to recommend Reinier's Intensives to anyone who is looking for The Truth. If you don't know what that means but are on a quest because you sense it is worthwhile then commit yourself to work with Reinier and you will be on the path to Knowing


With deep thanks to Reinier and in all sincerity,
Bill Leithead


Enlightenment Intensives have benefited me in ways I could never have previously imagined. I have experienced truths at a level of Absolute certainty, and that certainty has stayed with me long after the Enlightenment Intensive finished.

I arrived at the retreat with full confidence in Reinier’s ability to lead the Intensive. I left full of admiration for the ability and compassion he demonstrated.

Reinier took us through some amazingly deep intimate processes that although were very challenging were always from a gentle place of love giving us the safeness to open our hearts and experience a deeper love with each other. I strongly recommend anyone in relationship that desires to have the relationship of their dreams and a willingness to do what it takes to have what you want to call Reinier.

The staff crafted a wonderfully safe and caring space for us to open up within and discover ourselves...

I had known Reinier for a couple of years before I attended my first Enlightenment Intensive. He had sold me on going to one, but I guess I was scared and skeptical. Finally, Rein told me that he was going to be the Enlightenment Master at an upcoming Intensive, so how could I refuse!


I trusted Rein completely and though I had my fears and uncertainties, I knew
I was in capable hands.He and his team were there for me. They provided a safe environment for me to seek a direct experience of my own truth. Nowhere else in my life had I had the opportunity or the enlightened support to be open to such an experience. The experince I had was immensely personal yet cosmic and sublime.

I will definately do an intensive again, but if I never do, I know more about myself, my life and the power and wisdom of my friend, Reinier.

I wish I had had this opportunity in high school...! Just imagine what our world could be like if all of us and all our children did at least one Enlightenment Intensive! Truth is what we could LIVE by! Imagine that…
