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.

- Network event6 attendees from 4 groups hostingHU—A Key to Spiritual FreedomCortland Free Library, Cortland, NY
Discover how singing HU can transform your life.
HU is a sacred mantra known as the Sound of Soul. This special Sound of Soul event begins with the opportunity to join others of like heart in a 12-minute HU chant followed by a short contemplation. A facilitator will then lead an open discussion on the spiritual topics that arise after singing HU. The conversation may include some focus on techniques to unlock God’s blessings with the expanded consciousness that occurs when the sound of HU opens your heart.
“When you sing the name of God with love, the bindings and bands that constrain Soul will begin to unwind. Not all at once but very slowly, at a rate you can understand and accept. As these bindings are released, Soul rises in spiritual freedom.”
—Harold Klemp, HU, The Most Beautiful Prayer, p. 37
You are warmly invited to attend this Eckankar in New York sponsored, in-person, Sound of Soul Event, titled “HU—A Key to Spiritual Freedom,” that will take place on Saturday, May 10, 2025, 11:00 am–12:00 pm, at 32 Church Street, Cortland, NY 13045 (Cortland Free Library, Community Room).
The song of HU, sung or chanted each day for several minutes, can bring you to a higher state of consciousness that opens the door to Divine Love. This gift of an open heart helps you deal with daily challenges with grace and patience. You may experience a connection to Divine Spirit that touches those around you. Join us to experience and discuss the benefits of singing HU.
Ted Rohm, a long-time student of Eckankar, will facilitate the event. He hopes you bring your stories, your experiences, and your life-long spiritual insights to share in an open and friendly atmosphere.
