The Festive Season

By Andrew Horwood- Program Director - Hillier - South Australia

  

As December approaches, there's a heightened awareness of spiritual matters, with festivals like Hanukkah and Christmas approaching. 

  

This issue offers a festive collage, from poetry to personal breakthroughs, from insights to invitations for further exploration of Spirit.   Enjoy these offerings which come with love from Australia.  

 

Special thanks to artist Tracey Denny, who has given permission to photograph her painting for our banner.   To me, it's a beautiful portrayal of our interconnectedness - something we acknowledge, particularly at this time of year, and yet it is present all year round.  May this be in our awareness in 2012.

I am painting a rose

And contemplate

The extraordinary mystery

That causes it to unfold

Into enchanting imagery

 

'Behold me!'

She commands ever so gently     Read More.......


Welcoming the Future Now 

by Andrew Horwood- Program Director - Riverdell Spiritual Centre - Hillier - South Australia

 Andrew Horwood

Ever stop to wonder what the future holds for you? If we create our own realities, including our future, how can I do that most artfully?   What will 2012 hold for me?

 

Many people have secret fears about the future, worrying that it might contain a repeat of past distressing events.  Many pray for a future different from their past.  What can we do to ensure that?  What are the keys?    Read More......


Letting Go & Surrendering to Inner Change - Purification in Action

By Raymond Salton -  Edwardstown - South Australia

 Raymond Salton

This year I've experienced major changes internally, and have felt the movement of the current of heart-opening strongly in my life. In sharing my experiences, I offer encouragement & hope to any who are in the midst of what can be a personally challenging time.  Here's my story...

 

In May I attended the Awakening Inspired Living and Healing Conference at Riverdell, featuring American guests Dr Jane Anetrini & Cliffe Connor.  At the conclusion of the opening evening, Cliffe asked me, "What is your story?"  As I shared my life journey with him, I felt that Cliffe held me with unconditional love. The process of being heard and appreciated enabled me to think clearly.  This had profound ramifications in the quality of my expression for which I'm deeply thankful.    Read More......
 
 


How Spirit Opens Us Ever Wider to our Spiritual Destiny

Insights from Andrew Shier - Master Attunement Teacher - New Hampshire USA

 

A key focus of most attunements is the directing of a radiant current to each of the seven endocrine glands - the Pineal, Pituitary, Thyroid, Thymus, Islets of Langerhans/Pancreas, Adrenals and Gonads.

 

Recently Andrew Shier shared some of his insights relating to the seven endocrine glands and what he refers to as the "opening of the seals".   Just as the body is encoded to grow and develop from infancy through to adulthood, this is also true on an energetic level - different phrases of the life cycle can be seen as specific "seals" opening to a new experience of the Self. In fact, Andrew sees the seals as quite sequential, from puberty to eldership, Gonads to Pineal.    Read More.......
 


Spiritual Lift Off in 2012

 

Do you want to start 2012 with a spiritual lift off?   Consider these items for your inspiration:

 As Of A Trumpet Cover

"As Of A Trumpet" -  A mystical text which explores basic truths in clear language.  
Dr Mark Burrows, Prof of History of Christianity, says this - "I have so enjoyed 'As of a Trumpet'.  One line runs in my head persistently:  "No more love is needful to you than is now present.  Any apparent lack in your life arises from an inadequate experience of the truth of love.  It is this truth that makes you free to know love as it really is and to be your divine self."  Yes, indeed.  Really, there is not much more we need to know; the primary question is whether we have the vision and courage to practice this in the moments of our lives."     'As of A Trumpet'  can be purchased from Riverdell Spiritual Centre for $10.00 plus postage.

  

EDL Basic Tape Series  - Exceptional set of 24 presentations by Uranda and Martin Exeter collated on one CD and outlining basic spiritual principles for daily living.  Titles include 'The Art and Science of Living', 'Forgiveness', 'Coming Home', 'The True Stature of Man'  and many more.  Immersing yourself in this wisdom and tone will be a great start to the year.  Copies available from Riverdell for $20.00 plus postage and from Sunrise Ranch.
