Friday, April 20th at 6:30PM at Unity Radiant Light There is an opportunity to participate in a world wide, global Blessing that is awakening people across the planet. As you know, the journey of awakening is the journey of the Kundalini. All ancient cultures and paths understood that to move into higher states of consciousness, one would need to Sundhave their Kundalini awakened. Seekers of awakening would seek out great masters and awakened beings to receive the Blessing / Energy Transfer that would initiate this process. This Blessing to awaken and Divinely guide the Kundalini was historically called "Deeksha". In southern India, there resides a very special and well respected spiritual school called Oneness University. The specialty of this spiritual school is giving this Deeksha to anyone who has a passion to awaken. In this very auspicious year of 2012, a Oneness Guide, from Oneness University, will be traveling around USA / Canada sharing with people a powerful silent Oneness Meditation Blessing. This Guide would be meditating in front of audiences allowing Divine Energies to flow through him giving a very powerful Deeksha to participants which would awaken the spiritual energies resulting in an accelerated process of awakening. This is a rare and unique Blessing that is being given to humanity at this time period to help with the great awakening of our species. The Oneness Guide that will be traveling in US and Canada is Doug Bentley, who lives in southern India at Oneness University. As one of the Oneness Guides, he is focused on awakening the spiritual energies in people through the benediction of grace called Deeksha. Originally from the Washington DC area, Doug moved to India after feeling deeply called to serve the vision of transforming humanity in this great age of awakening. The goal is to bring this gift of awakening to all of humanity. Event Cost: Free but we will be taking a love offering that will be donated to the Oneness Tour to support Doug Bentley's travel. If you are planning to attend this wonderful event, please let me know as soon as possible. There will be a couple of events prior to the Oneness Meditation Blessing to prepare you physically so that your energy will be vibrating at its highest possible range during this event. This will assist you in receiving the full benefit of the blessing. The preparation activities are encouraged but not required. Recommended Reading The Universe Is Calling written by Eric Butterworth, who is often referred to as a "twentieth-century Emerson," and considered a legend and spiritual icon in the Unity Movement. He is the author of 16 bestselling books, including "Discover the Power Within You" which Oprah Winfrey says was her first "AHA" moment entering spirituality. "The Universe is Calling" addresses the growing need for understanding and clarity regarding the function and nature of prayer. Taking the problems with traditional prayer to their roots, Eric Butterworth asserts that our fundamental concept of God must change before we can experience true connection with the divine. Instead of praying to an imperialistic and remote God, Butterworth encourages praying from the shared consciousness of God. He outlines principles that enable entrance into the stream of God-consciousness, and offers techniques that act as universal guidelines for both interpersonal communication and spiritual living. "Eric Butterworth has helped me to live more abundantly, and he can help you to live more abundantly, too." Dr. Maya Angelou. Unity Radiant Light Classes:
