Running Time: min
The cinematography is jaw dropping. 3D renderings of galaxies, nebulae, asteroid fields, atoms, storms on Jupiter, etc are scattered throughout each show...and they look 100% real. There are moments where animated cartoons are used, usually representing a story about past scientists or philosophers...I thought the cartoon animations would detract from the shows grandeur, but that doesn't seem to be the case - the animations are beautiful and tasteful.
....Hope to see you there.

The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself
by Michael A. Singer
Sunday January 17th,
from 1:00 - 3:00pm (or later)
The format for the Book Club is as follows:
- At 1:00pm we will meditate for 1 hour listening to the audio book, followed by 10 minutes of silence in which we can process what we got out of the meditation and/or the information in the audio book. Then we can share or not share as we are moved to, speaking and listen from our deeper self. NO PRESSURE to share or participate. You are welcome to just come and be, stay, or leave.
- At 3:00pm we will end discussion and we will move from the meditation area to kitchen/dining for snacks and further conversation if desired. Vegetarian food/snacks are welcomed to be brought to share during the optional time after discussion, but bringing something is not required to stay.
If you are unfamiliar with the book, visit the author's website.

-----------Other Local Events---------
Raja Yoga Class and Satsang
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.

Theosophical Society Study Group
-----------Upcoming Events----------
Listeners often experience a sense of connectedness and peace as the sacred sounds of the Gongs and Bowls clear blockages and restore the free flow of vital energy throughout the body. With its ability to induce a spontaneous meditative state, the gong offers listeners access to parts of the mind that are usually closed, resulting in a sense of expanded awareness and higher consciousness.
Sound Healing is often used to rebalance, tone and bring harmony to the physical, emotional and spiritual bodies. If you would like to lay down, bring something comfortable to lay on. ( Mats, pillows, blankets) And let the Gongs take you away! Please make sure you are grounded before leaving, and be sure to drink water after the session.
