Join Mark Bentley and Jesse Chesnutt as they explore the 4 Prime Gifts of the Activation Sequence and the keys they hold to unlock your higher purpose. These are the prime codes of incarnation, the Gene Keys that empower each individual to release their unique genius into the world.Â
Join Mark Bentley and Jesse Chesnutt live on Instagram to explore the inner journey to living our purpose in the world. The Pathway to Purpose is something that must be lived and breathed. It is not a path that can be learned or mentally grasped, it is a journey to embodying the wisdom that lives within.
Join Jesse Chesnutt and Mark Bentley on Clubhouse to explore the immense treasure that struggle or challenge can bring to life. The Gene Keys golden path begins with the Pathway of Challenge, acknowledging that challenge in life is inevitable and facing them is how we evolve to embody our Genius in the world.
Join Jesse Chesnutt, Mark Bentley and Richard Rudd live on YouTube to contemplate the great life question ‘Am I fulfilling my highest purpose in life?’  We will explore ways of honestly answering this question, and reflections on how to more full embody our purpose.
Join Mark Bentley and Jesse Chesnutt live on Facebook for a playful exploration of the lines in your profile. Explore the way that the energy of the lines move through your life and how they can bring your Gene Keys journey alive.

No previous experience or understanding of the Gene Keys is required. This retreat is great for newcomers and returning voyagers alike!
Though every retreat is unique, we will host similar retreats in the future. Please visit our Online Retreats schedule to learn more.Â
The Activation Retreat hums along in the background of our busy lives. You do not need to attend every live event to experience a breakthrough. You choose your level of participation at each step of the journey.
As we will remind you throughout the retreat, you cannot "fall behind" in this retreat. The Activation Sequence takes time to unlock, and there is no forcing true transformation. We recommend staying present with the group energy, knowing that you can always return to the material at a later date. Awakening insights occur in their own divine timing, and this rhythm is here to keep you nourished and inspired while you patiently wait for the next level to unfurl...
We do recommend taking at least 2 hours per week to explore some of the resources in either the Activation Sequence course or by attending the live events offered throughout the retreat. This level of sustained commitment can have a profound impact on your life.
The live events for this retreat will be hosted by Mark Bentley and Jesse Chesnutt. Richard is not scheduled to appear on any of the live calls, though he has been known to show up to Community Calls on occasion!Â
However, you will see plenty of Richard Rudd inside the course materials. Richard has produced hours of footage inside the Activation Sequence course as well as the replays from his 2020 retreat which have been included as optional materials included with your purchase of this new retreat.Â
Though we are a relatively small team, we are connected to many around the globe and always strive to provide as many resources and tools as we can to our amazingly diverse community.
Â
This particular retreat will be in English only. Though we do hope to see more resources being developed and shared in other languages over time.Â
Â
For accessibility, we do enable transcripts & CC during live zoom events. We also provide edited subtitles on all video replays, though it may take an extra few days to a week to get the subtitles added.Â
Â
This journey is a rich visual and audio journey, so we hope there is something for everyone no matter your background or physical attributes! Most videos can also be enjoyed as audio only experiences. Â
Â
We aim to make our website more and more accessible for our low-vision and blind community members.
Â
If you ever have trouble navigating something, have a suggestion for better accessibility, or would like any additional support please let us know.Â
Is this therapy?
Nope! While the Gene Keys Synthesis is a profound set of teachings and experiences, it is not therapy. Please take time to reach out to professional therapeutic resources in your area if you feel you need this level of support in your life.
The artistic and contemplative practices in the Gene Keys can provide amazing insights, and you can find a supportive community of fellow voyagers waiting to share their stories and breakthroughs with you inside the private forums.
Richard is excited to share a host of new content, resources and somatic experiences in this version of the Golden Path retreat. Great for both newcomers and long-time voyagers, this includes:
Your purchase includes lifetime access to all online course resources. Optional offline resources to download will include audios and printable workbooks based on these teachings.
Engage in live monthly webinars with Richard Rudd and engage in a collective contemplation alongside our global community. Many of our events will include replays for those unable to attend live.

Our Gene Keys online Retreats have become well known over the years as life-changing events for many people. Whether you are new to the Gene Keys or a seasoned voyager, the power of exploring these teachings together in an organised form is incalculable.
The retreat hums along in the background of our busy lives, helping us to shine a compassionate lens on some of our more challenging patterns in life. The weekly live events create a supportive framework for you to explore the Gene Keys teachingsand apply them into your life.
Participants will follow our powerful online self study course (a minimum of 15 minutes a day or 2 hours a week, over a three month period), gently integrating this wisdom into their everyday lives.
Not at all. This journey is designed for both newcomers and longtime explorers. All you need is an open heart and a willingness to contemplate.
You’ll receive beautifully crafted audio, video and written transmissions, along with contemplative prompts and practices to deepen your own journey.
That’s perfectly natural. The Gene Keys are meant to unfold slowly, like a flower. You can revisit the material as often as you wish and allow the wisdom to reveal itself in time.
This is not a program of quick fixes. The Gene Keys work gently and gradually, often in subtle ways that unfold over time. Many participants find that transformation happens organically through simple daily contemplation.
No. The Gene Keys are a universal path of self-discovery, rooted in compassion and contemplation. People from all backgrounds and beliefs are welcome.
This journey is self-paced. Some people like to spend just 10–15 minutes a day in contemplation, while others dive in for longer. The rhythm is entirely yours to choose.
Every person’s journey is unique. What’s offered here are tools, insights and invitations – you will discover what resonates most deeply for you.
Â
You will have ongoing access to all retreat resources, replays, and the newly updated online course inside your genekeys.com account. All of the videos, audios, and text will be available for you even after the live journey ends.Â
The only aspect of live retreats that are not recorded are Community Calls.
Yes. Alongside the teachings, you’ll find guidance, reflections, and a supportive community of fellow travelers who understand the terrain of contemplation.

64.4 –The Round Table – a mission to incarnate a Higher Ideal in the heart of ordinary life
The Circle
The Hierarchy of Light is a circle
Whose circumference is everywhere,
Whose diameter is nowhere
And whose area is the single square inch of your heart.
The Mythos: Your DNA contains the imprint of a higher pattern of consciousness than the one you currently inhabit. Such a Mythos gives you a very distinct mission in this life – to assist the incarnation of a higher ideal on earth, particularly through your circle of friends and your greater network. There is little more important in your life than to continually nourish this network of friends, which will then continue to grow and blossom. This is not about quantity, but quality – the quality of your warmth, the essence of your openness to collaborate and your genuine love of others, all combine to allow some aspect of this High Ideal* to coalesce here on earth, right in the heart of your life.
