We will view a 16 minutes video "The need to heal" by Gangaji (click to view) on Wednesday September 25, at 7:00 pm.
In facing strong emotions such as fear and anger, or in dealing with traumas which keep people locked in personal misery and unable to experience freedom, Gangaji teaches "direct experience," or meeting whatever emotion is present. For example, she says, "Fear is about survival. When you drop under that and experience the fear without trying to change it, just letting it be, then it becomes still. When you open your heart to fear, rather than trying to fight it or deny it or even overcome it, then you find it is just energy." As a teacher and author, Gangaji travels the world speaking to seekers from all walks of life. She shares her direct experience of the essential message she received from Papaji – an Indian sage, and offers it to all who want to discover true and lasting fulfillment. Through her life and words, she powerfully articulates how it is really possible to discover the truth of who you are and be true to that discovery Weekly Practice- Every Wednesday from 7 pm to 8:30 pm Monthly Discussion - Last Wednesday of each month from 7pm to 8:30pm One Day Retreat: Saturday, September 14, 2019, from 9 am to 3 pm Saturday, November 2, 2019, from 9 am to 3 pm  We will view video "The The power of Conscious Awareness" by Gelong Thubten (click to view) on Wednesday August 28, at 7:00 pm.
