What we’re about
This Meetup is about learning how you can get meaningful answers for yourself through direct spiritual experience. It’s about exploring tools that can help you gain more understanding of your life and help you live it better, calmer, and happier as a more aware Soul. It’s also about those special experiences so many people have that can’t seem to be explained and have so much to teach us, such as:
• Hearing a sound no one else hears
• Seeing light that isn’t of this world
• Visions
• Dreams seeming important or more real than life
• Out-of-the-body & near death experiences
• Past life memories or a sense of experiencing something or someone before
• Having a spiritual guide and guidance or an experience with an angel
• Knowing that an animal friend is Soul, too, and can experience heaven
• Intuition, knowingness, a sense of truth beyond what you’ve been taught
• A sense that there must be more to life than what you’ve learned so far
• Unanswered religious/spiritual questions
• A strong desire to know more about God and Its relationship to you
• A wish to know more about divine love
• A sense that there must be something more than meditation or prayer
These are just a few types of spiritual experiences one might have
This Meetup can help you:
• Develop and travel your own spiritual path to God
· Experience the Benefits of Singing the HU , an ancient name for God across many spiritual paths
• Have more of God’s love in your life and all that comes with that love
• Connect with an unlimited, dependable, personal spiritual guide who can show you the possibilities, yet allow you the freedom to make your own choices— guidance that is available at all times and places
• Get reacquainted with a spiritual guide you have known in another lifetime.
• Further your study of dreams and discover what they can teach you
• Have out-of-the-body experiences as Soul that are safe and full of discoveries—losing the fear of death can be a result
• Discover that this is only one of many lifetimes you have lived and what that means for you as a spiritual being; explore the lessons of other lifetimes
• Take what you already know and build upon it for greater spiritual unfoldment, understanding and service to others
• Get answers, and new questions to answer—get personal proof of the validity of your answers
• Learn spiritual exercises, like singing the HU, that help you go deeper than you ever imagined into the mysteries of life, of God, of the heavens—discover the “more” there is to life
• Meet and study with people who have had experiences similar to yours but adapted to their needs—people who can relate to and appreciate the experiences you have had
• Discover and explore the levels of heaven while you are still alive
• Formulate your own spiritually founded answers to your children’s questions about God, dreams, life and beyond
There is never a cost for coming to and participating in our group meetings, just come and explore!

See all- What are the Signs of a Spiritual Awakening? (Zoom Discussion)Link visible for attendees
- How can you tell if you are having a spiritual awakening?
According to Harold Klemp, author of the Spiritual Experiences Guidebook, "If you are a sincere seeker of truth, you realize that something within you is constantly pushing you from the nest. You know the answers you seek do exist somewhere in the world. This inner force that pushes you to find the answers is an urge you have no control over" (p. 3).
At some point, your spiritual awareness starts to break through into your life, perhaps in the form of an out-of-the-ordinary experience. You feel an urge to look into the deeper questions of life.

Sponsored by Eckankar Connecticut - The Power of Gratitude and the Law of Abundance (Zoom Discussion)Link visible for attendees
- The power of gratitude can awaken you to the secret of love and open you to the creative flow of Spirit. It can carry you through difficult times and help you pivot to a new outlook on life.
According to ECK Master Harold Klemp, "The Law of Gratitude states simply that abundance flourishes in a grateful heart." (The Spiritual Laws of Life, p. 4).
So how can you cultivate gratitude and receive abundance?
In this discussion, you will learn how to create clear mental pictures of what you want in life, to expect the best that life has to offer, to work confidently toward your goals, and to enjoy the journey. You will also have a chance to try some spiritual exercises to open your heart to the power of gratitude and creativity. You can share your questions and experiences while benefiting from hearing those of others as well. Your life may never be the same!
