Greetings!
I see nothing but the Eyes of Spirit looking back at me
I hear nothing but the Voice of Spirit whispering to me
I taste nothing but the nectar of the Mother feeding me
I smell nothing but the Breath of The Wind
Nurturing me
I feel nothing but the footsteps on "The Path"
Leading me home
~From Tao-Zen Verses by Hanakia Zedek
Spirit United 2014 Theme:
The Soul's Journey to Love and Freedom
September's sub-theme: Wandering the Vastness-Home Is Everywhere
September's archetype: The Wanderer/Wonderer
"In form you are the microcosm,
but in reality you are the macrocosm."

THIS SUNDAY
SPIRIT SUNDAY
September 21, 2014
10:30am-11:30am  "The Garden That Is Spirit United"
with Rev. Ron Moor
and
guest musician Barbara McAfee
will join James Schattauer
Spirit United is a garden of abundance, a sanctuary of nourishment and shelter, of learning and beauty, of community and caring. Join us on Spirit Sunday as we joyfully celebrate, and communally tend, our garden. Musicians Barbara McAfee and James Schattauer will bring extraordinary music to feed our souls. Ron will offer a message of meaning, and we will discuss what our Garden of Spirit needs to continue to flourish so that we all can be fed. This is an important service in the life flow of our community. We humbly ask you to make an extra effort to attend.
  
Abundance is not something we acquire.
It is something we tune into.
~Wayne Dyer.

LAST SUNDAY  September 14, 2014
"Walking in the Footsteps
of the Celtic Mystic,
The Art of Deep Listening"
with Lynne Riley, RN and author.
Lynne shared her journey to understand deep listening. She sees it as establishing a relationship with all that is around her and it surrounds her. From deep listening the intention to be present, to help inform and transform me, to experience all that is out there, to be a witness to others in a moment which is sacred and holy. This place, the Celtic traditions say, is the "Spirit of Place" where understanding, change and transformation can happen. Listen to her wise words click here.

"Spiritual Psychology, the Higher Self,
 and the Cosmic Ego" with
Dr. James Ulness
Sunday, September 28, 2014
12:30pm-2:30pm
$20.00
I see so many people who are genuinely searching for a spiritual path that suits them. They are trying this, that, and whatever seems to hold out promise but quickly fades. The major reason for this failure is that many so-called spiritual paths are not really that at all. They are ego-empowering paths rather than Higher Self paths.
Spiritual Psychology can be of great help in this search, for it clearly distinguishes between ordinary ego aspirations and genuine longing for the Higher Self. Learning to know the Cosmic Ego opens the door to genuine spiritual growth and development. This workshop will help make this clearer.
Come join us!

Public Talk-Essentials of Ageless Wisdom:
The 10 Tenets of Esotericism
Thursday, October 9, 2014
7pm-9pm
$15
These principles range from understanding the soul as it is found within all aspects of Creation, to the practical role spiritually-minded people are asked to play in support of humanity's upliftment.
~~~~~
Workshop-The Art of Becoming the Soul Saturday, October 11, 2014 10am-4pm $100 for SU members $110 non-members The spiritual journey is governed by one's yearning to be the soul. Each life brings us closer to this objective, and the end reward is enlightenment itself. Life is therefore a journey of wakening to the authentic self (the soul) and its full expression in the outer world. This is the Art of Becoming. In this workshop we will closely consider the process of becoming the soul. ~~~~~
Workshop-In the Image of God
You are the Divinity You Seek
Sunday, October 12, 2014
1pm-3pm
$30 for SU members
$35 non-members
A new understanding about our relationship to the divine is slowly emerging. We are discovering that the path to God leads to our own divinity. Indeed, every expansion of consciousness gives us a deeper sense of the eternal soul and its sacredness. Through a deep inquiry into this fascinating subject, we shall discover that the seeker and the sought are but One. ~~~~~
Public Talk-The Art of White MagicMonday, October 13, 2014
7pm-9pm

(Minneapolis Theosophical Society Event) The purpose of life is to creatively express according to the soul's intention. This is spiritual creativity and is truly the magic of the soul. In this talk, William Meader will present the principles and skills related to this ancient art.
