This will be a weekly ongoing half-hour program in the Sanctuary on Sundays from 12:30-1 pm ET/10:30 am MT.
1:00 pm – Sacred Inquiry – 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’.
1:30 pm – Retreat Reflections – Facilitated by Rhoda Makled
Retreatants who participated in the Dyad Self-Inquiry retreat will share their inquiries, insights, and challenges so that they may teach themselves what is most alive from the retreat. All are invited to join what promises to be an insightful sharing.
2:30 pm – 4:45 pm Awakening Together Radio Broadcast during the break.
This is the time designated as a break so that our Sanctuary Director may have the time to rest.
5:00 pm – The Mighty Companions – Revs. Glen Ganaway and Yolanda Mapes
Revs. Glen Ganaway and Yolanda Mapes, who are interfaith ministers, share a delightful, funny, and inspiring hour of A Course in Miracles. Come join in on the fun, the laughs, and the music while unlearning the ego through the lessons and chapters of ACIM.
6:00 pm – Enlightened Leadership: Building the Foundation – Facilitated by Revs. Jacquelyn Eckert & Rhoda Makled
The Tao Te Ching (The Way), written by Lao-Tzu (Old Teacher), is a guide to enlightened leadership. While most people believe effective leadership lies in knowledge and power, the Tao teaches it lies in emptiness, stillness, and presence.
Awakening Together’s President-Minister, Jacquelyn Eckert, and Vice President-Minister, Rhoda Makled share from the Tao as they contemplate its principles in order to fully embody them.
7:00 pm – Deepening Into Clarifying the Teachings Together – Facilitated by Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert
During this program, we will listen to a portion of each previously recorded “Clarifying the Teachings” program. Afterward, we will spend time contemplating and teaching ourselves what is most alive for us at the moment. We may also spend time practicing what Regina is teaching. And…we will start at the very beginning.
Bring your journals, openness, and curiosity as we explore what is most alive in us and ready to be seen. We hope you feel inspired to join.
7:30 pm – Live Satsang with Jim Dreaver – Interviewed by Joy Bedford.
In case you haven’t heard of Jim, Awakening Together shares a regular broadcast with him on Awakening Together Radio. Here’s a little bit of Jim’s backstory.
He served as an army officer with New Zealand artillery forces during the Vietnam War, then worked as a chiropractor in northern California. He was on a spiritual journey for many years before he met European nondual master Jean Klein in 1984. He finally woke up to the fact that he was not his ego “I,” nor any other thought or “story,” in 1995.
Since then, Jim has authored a few books including End Your Story, Begin Your Life (Hampton Roads), The Way of Harmony (Avon Books), and his newest book Untriggerable: Mastering the Love and Freedom that Heals our World. Jim has also taught at Esalen Institute and elsewhere.
If you feel called, a PDF of his new book, Untriggerable: Mastering the Love and Freedom that Heals our World is available on his website for any donation and type UNTRIGGERABLE in the box.
He is also available for private sessions, with the first one being by donation.
*Sanctuary closes at 9 pm ET/7 pm MT.
