6,13,20 - NEW MEDITATION GROUP: Find Your Way In... led by Cleo Bouffiou at Unity Church of Today in Mt. Vernon. 6:30-8:00pm Love offering/donation.
To meditate is to connect with your authentic self, or as Elisabeth Lessor states "Meditation is like fine tuning the radio, you also fine tune your connection to God."
The beauty of the inner science is that it enables whoever wants to explore and to experiment within, to do so alone. This eliminates dependence on an outer authority. Once you understand the steps, you walk the walk in your own, individual way.
Many meditative techniques require one to sit still and silent. But for most of us accumulated stress in our body/mind makes that difficult. Before we can hope to access our inner powerhouse of consciousness, we need to let go of our tensions. There are over 100 different techniques to find your way in. Each week a different technique is offered.

After nine days, youth emerge transformed, able to express themselves with a renewed sense of purpose and confidence.

12,24- The Center of Spiritual Living prestents: Diksha with Anana Integre
7 to 8:30 pm
Diksha, or initiation, is the physical transference of divine energy, or light, directly into the brain, which initiates the process of Enlightenment. It is also defined as: Initiation of Light into the Brain, Initiation into the Supreme Light, and Initiation into the Path of Enlightenment.
Through Diksha, and the resulting transformation of the brain and karmic patterns, you can move into the vastness of consciousness, where the power of love, of your own heart, starts to reveal itself. With the power of love in your heart it is easier to experience the expression of the Divine as joy.
