“They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick…” Jesus of Nazareth

"People ask what must they become to be loving. The answer is “nothing.” It is a process of letting go of what you thought you had become and allowing your true nature to float to the surface naturally." ... Stephen Levin

It is not by your actions that you will be saved, but by your being." ... Meister Eckhart

Throughout this Series, local faith representatives will speak out of their experience of living according to their ancient religious traditions. Series participants will benefit as they choose opportunities to:

  • Experience the teachings of some of the world’s greatest spiritual masters
  • Learn how each master demonstrates the connection of heightened awareness with “the balanced life”
  • Gain understanding of how to “cultivate the mystic heart” by exploring the fascinating language of the mystics
  • Identify ways trans-cultural truths can help move humanity closer to wholeness
  • Gain deeper awareness of life-affirming ways to live more “wholly” by delving deeply into the psychologies of these truths
  • Learn how authentic spirituality discovery does not require “getting anything” if one sees it as a process of awakening inner truth
