MEETING HIGHLIGHTS
 
Topic: 
 
Spontaneous Evolution: From Ideal to Real Deal

An Interactive, Inspirational Presentation
with Spontaneous Evolution Co-author
Steve Bhaerman
 


LECTURE:


Crisis ignites evolution. The challenges and crises the world faces today are actually signs that change is imminent.  We are about to face our evolution.

Spontaneous Evolution offers a paradigm-shattering synthesis of science and society that reveals the planet is in the midst of an incredible evolutionary event...the emergence of a new species, Humanity.  This evolution is driven by a change in human consciousness.  We are, each and all, active participants in what will amount to be the greatest of human adventures.

In Spontaneous Evolution: Our Positive Future (And A Way To Get There From Here), pioneering biologist Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D. and political philosopher Steve Bhaerman team up to offer an insightful, playful, and hopeful look at the unfolding destiny of our species-and how you can play an active role in birthing the evolution of civilization.

A quote from Spontaneous Evolution:

"Spontaneous Evolution introduces the notion that a miraculous healing awaits this planet once we accept our new responsibility to collectively tend the Garden rather than fight over the turf.  When a critical mass of people truly own this belief in their hearts and minds and actually begin living from this truth, our world will emerge from the darkness in what will amount to a spontaneous evolution."


WORKSHOP:

Join Spontaneous Evolution co-author Steve Bhaerman in a lively conversation and interactive workshop on the implications of the book Deepak Chopra has called "world-changing," and how you can weave this evolutionary understanding into your own life, work and community.  Together we will explore three questions:

1.      What's so?  (What is new edge science is telling us about the nature of human nature?)

2.      So what?  (What are the world-changing implications of this new information?),

3.      Now what? (How do we live our lives in the light of these new understandings?)

And ... keeping in mind that Steve Bhaerman is also the alter ego of cosmic comic Swami Beyondananda ... we guarantee you'll laugh while you learn, and learn while you laugh.

ABOUT THE PRESENTER:

Steve Bhaerman
is an author, humorist, and political and cultural commentator, who's been writing and performing enlightening comedy as Swami Beyondananda for over 20 years.  A pioneer in alternative education and holistic publications, Steve is active in transpartisan politics and the practical application of Spontaneous Evolution.

LAST MONTH'S MEETING

December was the RAHM BYOH Party and Potluck.  (BYOH means "Bring Your Own Healing.")  Participants exchanged treatments, healings, readings and other gifts with each other.  The mood was transformative and uplifting.  Thanks to all for their support at this RAHM fundraiser.  A special thanks to Diana and Michael for hosting us.  It was so much fun, we may make it an annual event!
