What we’re about
Are you a spiritual adventurer?
Meet with people of all different backgrounds who share a passion for spirituality—who seek to have actual spiritual experiences, such as significant dreams, out-of-body travel, past-life recall, and encounters with spiritual beings—and to grow from these experiences to bring more meaning, purpose and joy to daily life. Come share your spiritual experiences—or your desire to have them—in an open, friendly setting where no one is pushing their beliefs on anyone else.
We'll discuss what these experiences mean to us and share techniques we use to explore our inner worlds. Join us to connect with other like-minded Souls and learn new ways of exploring your inner worlds. We offer informal spiritual discussions, workshops and other events that will help you to explore your inner worlds and to thrive spiritually.
Our goals are to help our members validate their spiritual experiences, understand what their experiences really mean, and gain new and advanced ways of exploring their inner worlds.
Our topics include:
*Meditation and Contemplation
*Soul Travel or Out of Body Experiences
*Finding Your Purpose
*Letting Go of Fears
*Creating Your Reality with the Spiritual Laws of Life
*Accessing Your Own Inner Wisdom
*Spiritual Growth and Transformation
*Angels, Masters, and Inner Guides
*How Past Lives Affect Us Today
*Spiritual Wisdom on Relationships, and many more, depending on the interests of the group.
There is never a cost for coming to and participating in our group meetings--RSVP and just come and enjoy!
Sponsored by members of Eckankar as a community service. Eckankar is an ancient spiritual teaching and a modern-day religion that is a resource for all people, whatever your religious background, to make spiritual experiences an everyday reality in your life.

Sing HU and connect with the Divine Being.
You are warmly invited to join like-hearted people in chanting HU, a name for God, with love for about 12 minutes, ending with a few moments of silent contemplation. Then explore how this simple spiritual exercise, whether in times of trouble or inner peace, leads you to truth—to the Divine Being.
“Times to chant HU include when you are in trouble. When things are not going well at the office, when you’ve had a bad day or someone else is having a bad day and you happen to be lower on the pecking order, you might sing HU.
“It’s a love song to God, a connection between Soul and the Divine Being, the Ancient of Days. If you really care about finding truth, sing HU.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 40
Join us for this online Sound of Soul event, “Find Truth When You’re in Trouble,” on Tuesday, June 17, 2025, from 12:30 pm–1:30 pm. All are welcome!
HU is a sacred mantra—an ancient name for God. It is a carrier of love between God and Soul. You are Soul, a divine spark of God, and HU is the Sound of Soul! Singing HU with love every day will connect you with the Source of all truth.
Each Sound of Soul Event is a sacred occasion—an authentic and unique spiritual adventure. We look forward to exploring the unlimited blessings of the HU with you.

- Network event13 attendees from 8 groups hostingSolving Problems—Tapping into Soul's CreativityLink visible for attendees
Learn to tune in to spiritual guidance that can transform the way you see yourself and your life.
Discover the secrets to unlocking your creative problem-solving abilities in this month's discussion of the booklet ECKANKAR—Ancient Wisdom for Today. Explore why challenges arise, how we can grow from them, and the power of using our creativity to overcome obstacles. Join us as we share inspiring stories and valuable lessons from our own journeys of problem-solving. Bring your insights, your spiritual experiences, and your questions.
“The spiritual life is not meant to finally end the succession of problems, for they are given as opportunities for Soul's unfoldment. What the spiritual student does develop, however, is the inner link with the ECK, the Holy Spirit. Thus he taps into the Supreme Creative Force that guides him around all the blocks in his path that once defeated him.
“One's ability to take charge of his own life increases. This is a solid step toward self-mastery and that state of consciousness called the kingdom of heaven.”
—Harold Klemp, A Modern Prophet Answers Your Key Questions about Life, Book 1, pp. 25-6
