Forerunner of the Light
~ Transforming the Echoes of Atlantis ~ The crises now facing humanity are remarkably similar to the events that determined the fate of ancient Atlantis. At that distant time, individualism and unbridled desire were the driving forces of civilized life. As a consequence, this gave birth to social inequality, separative attitudes and rampant materialism. And though Atlantis is of prehistoric antiquity, its echoes are loudly reverberating in our world today. Yet unlike the catastrophic demise that befell that ancient…
Find out more »The Eye of Vision
Walking the spiritual path requires that we recognize the changing nature of vision in our lives, particularly as it pertains to the use of the third eye. Sometimes called the Eye of Vision, this organ of the soul slowly opens over the course of many incarnations. By so doing, it gradually gives us the capacity to sense the deeper truths expressed through our individual lives, as well as outer events. In this talk, William Meader will present a deep understanding…

Over the vastness of time there are believed to be three phases of human evolution that lead us to the gate of enlightenment—Individualization, Initiation and Identification. In this talk, William Meader will take us on a journey through these stages to understand where we have come from and what we are evolving into. Beginning with the long and arduous period when we arose out of the animal kingdom (individualization) to the time when an individual is committed to living a…

~ An Adventure in Self-Discovery ~ According to the Ageless Wisdom, all of creation comes into being through the interaction of seven great streams of living energy (rays).

Find out more »Death
~ An Interlude Between two Activities ~ Death is an unavoidable aspect of human existence, though mystery and fear often surround it. From the perspective of the soul, death is not an ending but a beginning and is experienced as a stupendous act of liberation from its imprisonment within form. As an essential hiatus, death allows the soul to integrate the wisdom and experience that incarnation has given to it. Death is therefore best understood as an interlude between two activities. Join us as we examine the…

Glamour is the force within each of us that distorts spiritual truth.

As a result, the soul's desire becomes disfigured and misapplied. In this presentation, glamour will be discussed in depth. An assessment of the typical distortions occurring within one's thoughts, feelings, and physical experiences will be examined, as well as the means to recognize these tendencies within…

Homeward Bound
~ The Soul’s Return to the Ashram ~ Within each of us is a hidden yearning for home. Whether living in a mansion or hovel, home is viewed as a place of retreat from the hectic pace and pressure of outer life and career. Though this perception is true for most of us, it is nonetheless a view that arises from the personality (ego), not the soul. For in the eyes of the soul, the notion of home has nothing…
