We wanted to close out our 2011 year and share with you the ending financial status of our “Church” to which many of you generously contributed through the year. For those of you who made contributions by check we have sent individual statements for tax purposes. For the group here’s how we closed the year:

Contributions received totaled $269.

And we chose to make a donation of $50 from those funds to a very worthy cause; you may want to read about our friend, Susan Jacobi and her foundation here:

Susan’s story is about her remarkable journey of survival, recovery and action!

Posts to this blog will be suspended for now. Our two Colorado communities, The Spiritual Exploration Group and Sundays at The Center have been closed as we make our move eastward.

All blessings and love!

Rosemary and Richard

Part of the conversation was recorded and is included here:  Click the link to the audio file:  SEG recording-07112011

This is a 42-minute MP3 file which captured most of the presentation and discussion. Rosemary also drew a couple of diagrams during the discussion. One  illustrates the relationships among Conscious Mind, Unconscious Mind and Higher Conscious Mind. And the second relates the Soul, Spirit and Ego. I’ve included these as reference:

During the discussion we explored the influence of His Holiness, the Dalai Lama on the world. A couple of good movies about him were mentioned; these are:

Our next meeting is scheduled for August 1, 2011 at Little Nepal Restaurant   And the topic is: Are Extra-Terrestrials Really “Extra”?

Blessings!

It has been a while since I posted an update here. But since I have a couple of audio files to offer you, I thought this would be a good way to distribute them.

Our February topic was a good one; Rosemary did some initial teaching from guidance of new teachers she is receiving recently. And because some of our members were out of town they asked that we record this session. That recording was cut short after about 48 minutes but the major piece of the teaching is available. Unfortunately much of the discussion following the teaching was lost.

While we agreed at the meeting to send the recording only to those in attendance, since we only captured the teaching I am sending it to our entire list.

Here is a summary of what we discussed:

Rosemary has begun to receive teachings from a new source for her, the “Sirius Mystery Temple Teachings.” She read from the channeled material given to her from the Temple Teachings (ref. recording). The teachings at the present are about the 5th dimension, Consciousness. Enjoy the recording!

Part of the discussion revolved around crystals and their vibrational energy. The book referenced as an excellent resource  is:

LOVE IS IN THE EARTH: The Crystal & Mineral Encyclopedia–The LIITE Fantastic, The Last Testament by Melody

During the discussion Cynthia was reminded of one of her favorite songs, “Unring the Bell” by Gov’t Mule. It seemed to fit the concept well, and I’ve included the song here:

Lyrics to Unring The Bell :

Our topic for September should generate some lively discussion; it is “How do you live your spirituality?” What are your practices? How do you put into action what you believe about life, spirit, the unknown? Rosemary and I will offer what works for us, the things that we’ve tried that haven’t worked so well, what we are studying, new practices we are exploring. And we hope you will be willing to share with us your ideas and thoughts on this broad topic.

We will gather as usual at Little Nepal at 6:30 pm for a light, tasty (maybe even vegetarian) Indian dinner, meaty discussion, but we’ll leave the dogma at home!

Blessings and joy!

We first determined how to compute our Life Paths from our birthdays. We distributed forms to make this really easy. I’ve included a copy of the form here in case you were unable to attend or you would like to work with it again:  NUMEROLOGY WORKSHEET (Just click on the link to download the form into MS Word) (And here is another link to a PDF version of the document:  NUMEROLOGY WORKSHEET.PDF)

The main reference book we used to explore each of the profiles for the resulting numbers is: “Numerology: Universal Vibrations of Numbers” by Barbara J. Bishop. Rosemary’s favorite book (packed away with all of our Maryland books) is “Your Days are Numbered: A Manual of Numerology for Everybody” by Florence Campbell.  Of course, with a topic so ancient and broad there are many good reference books available. Please post some of your favorites!

Our next meeting is scheduled for the Second Monday (allowing for Labor Day); we will meet on September 13, 2010, at 6:30 at Little Nepal Restaurant, for dinner, discussion, but no dogma!

Through the past several months we have explored various tools for self-discovery and understanding. This month’s topic is “What do your numbers reveal?” – the ancient examination of various significant numbers that are associated with your name and date of birth. We will offer ways to derive these numbers and then explore what they may mean to you.

Please plan to join us for exploration, good discussion and likely some laughs as we examine our numerology.

She then revealed that our topic was “Past Lives” and that she had intuited and written a brief description of a past life for each of us that she had tapped into! She was quick to add that she had obtained permission from our Higher Selves to do this. We then talked a bit in general about the whole notion of past lives and their meaning and value to us in this life. We all shared these ideas:

It can be useful to consider past life experiences; they can help us understand our current relationships informing us of how we handled conflict in the past or how a great love of the past adds understanding to our current love relationships.

They can shed light on our karmic patterns and relationships; karma is spirit operating to bring us lessons in this life. It is speeding up bringing us those lessons at a faster rate.

And it doesn’t really matter whether we consider past lives to be real, metaphorical, archetypal, or the collective consciousness at work in each of us. The investigation into past lives can be informative to our present lives.

We then shared with the group the past life Rosemary had tapped into for each of us. By way of example I will share mine:

“A pirate who brought on board men who had nowhere to go, inspiring great loyalty.”

Make of that what you will!

Our August meeting is set for the First Monday, August 2 at Little Nepal restaurant at 6:30 pm.

We are a week away from the next meeting of our group. I do hope you can join us next Monday for great food and even better discussion. Our topic for June is Angels, Spirit Guides and Other Beings. And who better to lead such a discussion than Rosemary, who is so often in touch with these “beings on The Other Side”?

I will be speeding toward Ojo Caliente as the discussion unfolds, going to help with the mudding of the adobe hall,The Lady, which houses Bolad’s Kitchen. I will attempt to join by phone but coverage along my route can be thin (just like that veil Rosemary sees through!).

Blessings for a powerful and meaningful discussion!
