The Emancipated Person
By Brenda R. Cutrell, Ph.D.
Emancipation is a state of being that is a stepping-stone towards Life unimaginable to the average person. Yet it no longer should be unimaginable. In fact, it should now be regarded as an achievable goal. The author has strived to put what is a deeply subjective experience for each individual--and yet something very basically impersonal--into a form that is a sort of map of the territory of the condition of spiritual emancipation.

Greetings,
 " The keynote which embodies the truth as to the mission of Virgo most accurately is 'Christ in you, the hope of glory.' There is no clearer or more adequate definition of this sign than that;..." Alice A. Bailey, Esoteric Astrology, pg. 252
The goal of the evolutionary process is to shield, nurture and ultimately reveal the hidden spiritual reality. Humanity is well equipped for this intended creative process, and many strive for greater purification and refinement. The following classes are intended to assist your progress. In Graduate Trimester III, you'll have the opportunity to learn about Birth: Implications on The Soul. You don't need to be a Grad Program student to attend the week-long morning sessions; they are open to all at a reduced fee. The Awakened You is the Authentic Selfclass is designed to nurture the Inner Self and rouse the part of the brain that is regarded as feminine in nature. And in Agni Yoga, The 21st Century Way you'll learn about the daily practice of ethical living, devotion, and purification of the physical, emotional, and mental bodies. All our class offerings are created to support your process to reveal the hidden spiritual reality within. Choose the ones that resonate with you, and participate in the unfolding.

♦ careless or hostile attitudes, as well as words, imprint on each of us.
The famous statement is, 'It is easy to get the baby out of the mother, the hard part is to get the mother out of the baby." Join us for an exciting week of new education! Class details

September 27 - October 1 AGNI YOGA, THE 21ST CENTURY WAY Revs. Carol E. Parrish & Roberta Wilkes
 A modern approach to spirituality, Agni Yoga emphasizes the daily practice of ethical living, devotion, and purification of our physical, emotional, and mental bodies. Formation and application of a living ethic and development of virtues in the personality are based on a series of themes, not rigid disciplines. Students learn to integrate ideology, theology, and service into their lives. The Agni path affirms the importance of meditation to the work of clearing glamours and illusions to connect to our inner wisdom. Connections of these enigmatic teachings to Kabalah and the Bailey materials will also be explored. 30 CEU's are available for this course, and counselors are invited to attend to earn ethics credit. Class details |

Required Shustah materials cost an additional $30.
