Choose Love
If you take what the Buddha and Christ said,
and all the great yogis, saints, sages,
mystics, and lovers of God,
it can be reduced
to two words:
Choose Love.
There is nothing
higher than Love,
nothing purer,
nothing
more selfless,
nothing more powerful,
and it
is present in every moment.
Choose Love.
In all times, in all places -
Choose Love,
for Love has already chosen
you.

February-May Programs
Anam Cara, Bedford, NY
February 23-25, 2007 -
Mysteries of
the Divine Feminine & Kundalini
Empowerment
Friday
7pm
through Sun. afternoon, Anam Cara, Bedford, NY.
Includes lectures, guided
meditations, chanting and most importantly, the
sacred and ancient Kundalini empowerment. In
this retreat we will also explore the mysteries of Kali
and the wisdom She imparts for living in this
age, Kali Yuga.This is the last time it will be offered
until the fall
of 2007. This retreat was specially created to
invoke the sublime power
Kundalini and to open the portals to the sacred
knowledge of our true nature at the heart of our
being. The retreat gives you the opportunity to
remain immersed in this sacred space of awakening
so you can explore and discover for yourself what
lies within. For thousands of years the yogic
sages have written about the great serpent power
Kundalini as
the key to the treasury of unbounded power, joy and
wisdom within us. By the
grace of Kundalini you access the depth of
meditation that allows
you to directly experience the Source.
Click the link below to find out more and it will also
take you to sharings from others who have taken this
life-transforming retreat, some of whom have taken
it repeatedly, as it continues to support and deepen
the grace-filled process of Kundalini unfolding in their
lives.
Pre-registration is
necessary for courses and
retreats.
