Meditation, an integral part of proceeding on a path of Self (God) – Realization, promises to do just that. When the mind with its myriad thoughts becomes quiet and still, we can feel what lies beyond. The Pure, Non- Dual (only ONE) Consciousness lies beyond and is our True Eternal Being. Satsang (group meeting with a spiritual aim) begins with a 15 min. meditation followed by a discourse, the subject of which is given below. A short video clip is also presented by a teacher adhering to the same teaching of Non-Duality. As always questions are warmly encouraged. 4/2 The Screen of the Self (God) is Everlasting; the Movie of Life is Not 4/9 Abide as Awareness Alone 4/16 Have No Resistance to what Is – Therein lies True Freedom 4/23 Surrender is not something you 'do;' it Happens by Grace Alone in spite of You 4/30 Ego Death is Rebirth into Our True Nature We meet every Wednesday from 2:30 to 3:45 pm in the Main Clubhouse Multipurpose Room.
