Corin Grillo (coringrillo.com) will be speaking about:
The Ecstatic, Orgasmic Union with Your Holy Guardian
The Sacred Beloved and the Mystical Path of Divine Intimacy
What if the Divine was never meant to remain an idea, a theology, or a distant presence—but something you could know intimately?
In this provocative and experiential talk, Corin Grillo—author, modern mystic, and spiritual teacher—invites us into one of the most intimate dimensions of the spiritual path: Sacred Relationship with the unseen Beloved.
Across mystical traditions, seekers have described an encounter with an intelligence so intimate, loving, personal, and alive that ordinary religious language struggles to contain it.
It has been called the Beloved. The Holy Guardian. The Genius. The Divine Friend.
Mystics have written about being captured by it. Ravished by it. Consoled by it. Corrected by it. Spoken through by it. Loved by it.
For many of us, spirituality remains strangely impersonal. We pray. We meditate. We talk about God, angels, intuition, Spirit, consciousness, and the Universe.
But relationship requires something more.
In this talk, we’ll explore:
The Hidden Relationship — the ancient mystical understanding of the Beloved, Holy Guardian, Genius, and Divine Friend.
The sensual side of mysticism — why mystics like Rumi and Teresa of Ávila used the language of lovers, longing, rapture, surrender, and union.
What blocks Divine intimacy — including our distrust of the body, inherited shame around pleasure and sensuality, and the tendency to judge or dismiss experiences we don't understand.
The stages of relationship with the Beloved — from recognition and courtship to trust, intimacy, embodiment, and ecstatic union.
Modern mystical experience — how ordinary people are still encountering the Sacred in startlingly personal and unexpected ways.
Corin will share stories from her own mystical life as well as experiences from modern seekers—including Melissa's surprising encounter with a Presence that radically challenged what she believed spiritual relationship could be.
You’ll Walk Away With:
Tools and a new framework for recognizing how the Divine may already be attempting to relate to you, greater awareness of the unconscious beliefs that can interrupt that intimacy, and practical ways to become more receptive to communication, connection, and embodied spiritual experience.
Most importantly, you'll be invited to move beyond simply believing in the Divine toward discovering what it might mean to actually know, love, listen to, and be loved by the Sacred.
Perhaps the great mystical invitation is not to reach some distant God at all.
Perhaps it is to discover that the Beloved has been much closer than you imagined……
