Worldwide synchronized meditations
2005, BE 2548
Meditators
are invited to join in mind to radiate Loving Kindness the Mother
Earth and all her children at the exact times of equinoxes and
solstices. You can simultaneously link in mind with others around
the globe on these occasions. In addition, there may be sessions
to hold the energy balance when there is a crisis in the world.
Please check this website for updates on such sessions.
Note: since Thailand is in the northern hemisphere, I have referred
to the equinoxes and solstices in the way they are referred
to there. The names should be reversed for those in the southern
hemisphere.

Introductory courses
in
Insight Meditation (Vipassana)
2005
These two-day introductory courses are highly recommended for
those who genuinely wish to practice meditation.
You
will be given a theoretical background to Samatha (Concentration)
meditation and shown how it differs from Vipassana (Insight)
meditation. You will be shown how meditation forms an integral
part of 'Bhavana’ mental development and how it relates
the Noble Eightfold Path. You will gradually be guided through
exercises to improve your concentration and bare awareness "sati",
including standing, walking, sitting and lying down exercises.
The next Introductory
course will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on December
23 & 24.
Courses
can also be arranged by appointment

Additional
workshops
Accessing
your inner guidance workshops in 2005
Many channelers share messages and advice that
they hear from Ascended Masters, angels and so on. These messages
are often inspiring and timely. They are, however, only as accurate
as the person, who is channeling them, is clear and able to
convey to others what is heard. Some people are able to ‘hear’
others to ‘see’ and yet others to ‘feel’
messages from more expansive aspects of who they are.
If you would like to access this inner wisdom yourself, you
might like to join one of the Inner Guidance workshops in 2005,
listed below:
One
day. 10.00 am to 3.30 pm. on the following dates:
Friday, November 4
Or
by appointment
Individual
or group instruction.
