ACIM Lesson of the Day

The Nobel Prize winner John Forbes Nash Jr. still teaches at Princeton, and walks to campus every day. That these commonplace statements nearly brought tears to my eyes suggests the power of "A Beautiful Mind," the story of a man who is one of the greatest mathematicians, and a victim of schizophrenia. Nash's discoveries in game theory have an impact on our lives every day. He also believed for a time that Russians were sending him coded messages on the front page of the New York Times. It tells the story of a man whose mind was of enormous service to humanity while at the same time betrayed him with frightening delusions. Crowe brings the character to life by sidestepping sensationalism and building with small behavioral details. He shows a man who descends into madness and then, unexpectedly, regains the ability to function in the academic world. Nash has been compared to Newton, Mendel and Darwin, but was also for many years just a man muttering to himself in the corner.
....Hope to see you
there.

Shri Mooji
Anthony Paul Moo-Young, known as Mooji, was born on 29 January 1954
in Port Antonio, Jamaica. Mooji is a direct disciple of Sri Harilal Poonja, the
renowned advaita master, or Papaji. Since 1999, Mooji has been sharing satsang in the form of
spontaneous encounters, retreats, satsang intensives and one-to-one
meetings with the many seekers who visit him, from all parts of the
world, in search of the direct experience of truth. Few amongst the
modern teachers of the advaita tradition expound the 'knowledge of
Self', and the method of self-enquiry, with such dazzling clarity, love
and authority. His style is direct, clear, compassionate
and often humorous.

Raja
Yoga is the royal yoga that brings the nature of our True Self to our
awareness. This awareness cannot be gained through perception or
intellectual knowledge, it can only be known through cognition, like the
knowledge that I am, that I exist, it needs no proof, but without this
knowing, experience remains limited and misunderstood. Come join us as
we explore our True Self through:
Silence, Meditation, Breathing, and gentle relaxing Postures.
