SACRED ECSTASY TRANCE DANCE WITH LIVE MUSIC




TRANSPERSONAL HISTORY:
TOWARDS A MAP OF A NEW COUNTRY -
FOOTNOTES TO THE PERIODIC TABLE OF THE WORLD’S RELIGIOUS AND PHILOSOPHICAL TRADITIONS

This special 2010-2011 course of lectures is being given by Dr. Thomas C Daffern, an academic specialist in interfaith research and comparative global philosophy. It is taking place in West Sussex, close to the Buddhist monastery at Chithurst, and is being given to an invited audience. It will be audio-recorded as a record of the proceedings.

The cost of admission is by donation. All funds raised will be donated to a local spiritual education project, to raise consciousness about the spiritual resources available to mankind to help solve our current global problems.

The talks will be taking place on Sunday afternoons, on the last Sunday of each month, from 3-5.30 starting in May 2010. They will be followed by questions and discussion of the issues raised. The course is based partly on the unique Periodic Table of the World’s Religious and Philosophical Traditions devised by Dr Daffern (www.thewisdompages.co.uk).  The course is also based on Dr Daffern’s doctoral thesis, entitled Toward a Transpersonal History of the Search for Peace 1945-2001.

If you wish to attend please contact iipsgp@educationaid.net for an invitation and exact travel details.
More details of Dr Daffern’s work are on www.educationaid.net while his publications are available from www.lulu.com/iipsgp.
The course is taking place under the auspices of the International Institute of Peace Studies and Global Philosophy and all students, members and friends of the Institute are especially welcome.

WHOLISTIC WORLD VISION
A Global Communications Network for Planetary Transformation through Spiritual Re-education

Heart-centered, Spiritual Geomancy

The Powersite pilgrimage programme offered by Wholistic World Vision is based on the understanding that whenever a like-minded group of people come together synchronistically in service with open hearts, then Nature responds and magic happens! Awake and aware humans are "the Beings that walk between the worlds" and the Divine Will flows through them manifesting whatever geomantic adjustments are required at subtle levels on the powersites and in the energy grids. We don't need to understand intellectually, impose techniques or prove anything - just to be fully present, surrendered, and in gratitude for the opportunity to serve.
