Join us at 9:30 am ET/ 7:30 am MT for Shiny Things with Claire Bhavani
What is Truth? And how do we find it in a life that is pushed and pulled around by the cravings, aversions, and ignorance of the human mind and senses?
There can be no confusion about where to start, for it is all laid out within the eight limbs of Raja yoga, as described in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
Shiny Things provides practical guidance to apply the path of Raja Yoga in daily life, relieving suffering and accessing an inner sparkle, within a supportive group environment. It includes consideration of how we conduct ourselves in the world, how we relate to our spiritual practices, appropriate care of the body and vitality, a gradual quieting of the mind and senses, throwing out what is false, and glimpsing what is True.
We will initially use the book by Bhava Ram: The Eight Limbs of Yoga, Pathway to Liberation, as an introductory guide. If you don’t have the book, you can still join us. Later in the year, we will commence a deeper immersion into a full commentary of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
Join us at 10:15 am ET/ 8:15 am MT
for Our Weekly Gathering with
Rev. Ginny Wall
Topic: “Lessons in Love”
Description: Indian Master Anthony de Mello described our lives as ‘scripture’, with every event, encounter and experience to be seen as sacred writing that can reveal the Divine to us. Ginny will be reflecting on the lessons in love that she learned from her father, John, who died nearly a year ago, and the ways in which the learning from those lessons is reverberating in her life now.
Reading: Melissa Sternhill will read selected poems.
*Weekly gathering is held every Sunday morning at 10:15 am ET/8:15 am MT in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Join us after the Gathering for our Fellowship Time, hosted by Joy Bedford.
Join us at 12:00 pm ET/ 10:00 am MT for Sacred Inquiry with Rev. Shawna Summers
Rev. Shawna demonstrates the art of Sacred Inquiry in real time. Join her as she follows the guidance, questioning each layer that the thinking mind throws at her in an attempt to hide the wisdom that is inherent in us all. She is learning to go deeper into beginners’ mind with humble and honest curiosity. This is an evolving process, as she learns to feel for the vibrational level of each thought, exposing the source. She invites all listening to join her in their own Inquiry to experience the strength of this powerful spiritual practice. The original inspiration for this half-hour came from Adyashanti’s book ‘Sacred Inquiry’.

Pre-Recorded Satsang with Dr. Christiane Michelberger *Live Satsang at 1:30 pm ET/11:30 am MT
Please join Dr. Christiane Michelberger who will be joining us for our October Satsang. Christiane will be interviewed by Yvonne Unger. This special pre-recorded event will take place:
📅 Date: Sunday, October 20th, 2024
🕢 Time: Pre-Recording @ 7:00 p.m. ET / 5:00 p.m. MT.
📍 Where: Awakening Together’s Zoom Sanctuary
Dr. Christiane Michelberger is a retired physician and psychoanalyst. In 1975 she embarked on the spiritual path after having been confronted with death. She studied Zen with the Zen Masters Prof. Nagaya Roshi and Willigis Jäger (Kyo un Ken). She was then issued a teaching permit from Willigis Jäger in 2002. Later, she turned to the teachings of the historical Buddha which are laid out in the Pali Kanon.
Having been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, her search became urgent. She found Kevin Schanilec, who had made the path to awakening accessible again. On the final leg of her journey, she used the path through the ‘Ten Fetters’, a concept that is laid out in the Pali Kanon. Two years later, what she hadn’t thought possible had happened. The self was fully gone, the truth was seen, and all suffering had ended.
For those who are eager to join the live Satsang, Yvonne Unger will be interviewing Dr. Christiane Michelberger :
