The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence.

Our discussion will focus on relationships as a process instead of as a goal. Through this examination, we have the opportunity to bring more clarity, understanding and awareness to both our conscious and unconscious ideas of love with the possibility of making room for new ones to come forth.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Focus for June Meetings:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Pittman McGehee, a Jungian analyst, has recorded a series of four classes he has taught on "The Psychology of Love." We will be listening to and discussing these over four sessions in June, as follows:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= -June 2 General Overview: Eros and Agape=0D=0A= -June 9 Mother Love=0D=0A= -June 16 Father Love=0D=0A= -June 23 The Romantic Other=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Although each session can stand alone, they do build on each other. In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

Our discussion will focus on relationships as a process instead of as a goal. Through this examination, we have the opportunity to bring more clarity, understanding and awareness to both our conscious and unconscious ideas of love with the possibility of making room for new ones to come forth.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Focus for June Meetings:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Pittman McGehee, a Jungian analyst, has recorded a series of four classes he has taught on "The Psychology of Love." We will be listening to and discussing these over four sessions in June, as follows:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= -June 2 General Overview: Eros and Agape=0D=0A= -June 9 Mother Love=0D=0A= -June 16 Father Love=0D=0A= -June 23 The Romantic Other=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Although each session can stand alone, they do build on each other. In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience. Join us as we visualize a more resilient Rogue Valley together.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Presenter’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Exec. Director of the Thrivability Institute and the Honoring All Life Foundation. Shaktari has studied Developmental Psychology, Kinesiology, Fine Art, Communication, and Art History. She holds an MSc degree in Organizing Learning for EcoSocial Regeneration from Gaia University, where she offers her skills as a Process Advisor and Internal Reviewer. She is fascinated with HOW we perceive and the subsequent choices we make that determine our sense of reality. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Her book on the subject, exploring potent perceptual filters that offer new possibilities, Honoring All Life - A Practical Guide to Exploring a New Reality, was published in 2005. Her workshop, DEEP PERCEPTION, has been offered in the USA and Europe, and provides an in-depth exploration of personal perceptual filters and new ways of perceiving the possible. Locally, she is leading the effort to create a Gaia University regional center in Ashland, Oregon.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience. Join us as we visualize a more resilient Rogue Valley together.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Presenter’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Exec.

She holds an MSc degree in Organizing Learning for EcoSocial Regeneration from Gaia University, where she offers her skills as a Process Advisor and Internal Reviewer. She is fascinated with HOW we perceive and the subsequent choices we make that determine our sense of reality. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Her book on the subject, exploring potent perceptual filters that offer new possibilities, Honoring All Life - A Practical Guide to Exploring a New Reality, was published in 2005.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Our discussion will focus on relationships as a process instead of as a goal.

We will be listening to and discussing these over four sessions in June, as follows:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= -June 2 General Overview: Eros and Agape=0D=0A= -June 9 Mother Love=0D=0A= -June 16 Father Love=0D=0A= -June 23 The Romantic Other=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Although each session can stand alone, they do build on each other. In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

We will be listening to and discussing these over four sessions in June, as follows:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= -June 2 General Overview: Eros and Agape=0D=0A= -June 9 Mother Love=0D=0A= -June 16 Father Love=0D=0A= -June 23 The Romantic Other=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Although each session can stand alone, they do build on each other. In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience. Join us as we visualize a more resilient Rogue Valley together.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Presenter’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Exec.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience. Join us as we visualize a more resilient Rogue Valley together.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Presenter’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Exec.

She holds an MSc degree in Organizing Learning for EcoSocial Regeneration from Gaia University, where she offers her skills as a Process Advisor and Internal Reviewer. She is fascinated with HOW we perceive and the subsequent choices we make that determine our sense of reality. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Her book on the subject, exploring potent perceptual filters that offer new possibilities, Honoring All Life - A Practical Guide to Exploring a New Reality, was published in 2005.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev. Ruth Kirby is the founder of the Living Truth Center, a Science of Mind center. Rev. Ruth has been involved with the Science of Mind philosophy and other New Thought teachings for 18 years.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience. Join us as we visualize a more resilient Rogue Valley together.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Presenter’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Exec.

She is fascinated with HOW we perceive and the subsequent choices we make that determine our sense of reality. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Her book on the subject, exploring potent perceptual filters that offer new possibilities, Honoring All Life - A Practical Guide to Exploring a New Reality, was published in 2005.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Our discussion will focus on relationships as a process instead of as a goal.

In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

He writes, "Resilience refers to the ability of a system, from individual people to whole economies, to hold together and maintain their ability to function in the face of change and shocks from the outside." =0D=0A= =0D=0A= What does resilience look like? It is unique to each bioregion, but he describes the Hunza society of the early1990's as an example. At that time, their society lived within its sustainable limits while developing highly creative responses to their local needs. Citizens experienced an abundant lifestyle with time to socialize and play even as everyone's needs were met. Hopkins realized that, unlike his own community, the Hunza community could most likely weather any adversity that came its way. What Hopkins is describing here could be termed "thrivability," a next step beyond mere sustainability. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= This talk is an overview of Hopkins’s Transition Initiative as well as other ideas people are implementing around the world as they localize their systems and develop greater resilience.

She is fascinated with HOW we perceive and the subsequent choices we make that determine our sense of reality. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Her book on the subject, exploring potent perceptual filters that offer new possibilities, Honoring All Life - A Practical Guide to Exploring a New Reality, was published in 2005.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.

Each class is 90 minutes long and includes people from all over the world calling in with questions. Continue through the summer to practice being present and awaken to life’s purpose with the inspiration of these incredible classes.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= The classes will be shown on 10 Wednesday nights starting June 11th from 7:00-8:30pm in the library, with an optional hour afterwards to clarify and discuss the practice of the ideas presented. These showings will be hosted by Rev. Ruth Kirby, Spiritual Director of The Living Truth Center.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Oprah and Eckhart’s class attracted the attention of millions of people around the world. Come and witness the incredible seeds of New Thought/Ancient Wisdom that they have planted in mass consciousness.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Book Description:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle presents readers with an honest look at the current state of humanity: He implores us to see and accept that this state, which is based on an erroneous identification with the egoic mind, is one of dangerous insanity.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Tolle tells us there is good news, however. There is an alternative to this potentially dire situation. Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are-which is something infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are-and learn to live and breathe freely.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator’s Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Rev.

Our discussion will focus on relationships as a process instead of as a goal. Through this examination, we have the opportunity to bring more clarity, understanding and awareness to both our conscious and unconscious ideas of love with the possibility of making room for new ones to come forth.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Focus for June Meetings:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Pittman McGehee, a Jungian analyst, has recorded a series of four classes he has taught on "The Psychology of Love." We will be listening to and discussing these over four sessions in June, as follows:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= -June 2 General Overview: Eros and Agape=0D=0A= -June 9 Mother Love=0D=0A= -June 16 Father Love=0D=0A= -June 23 The Romantic Other=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Although each session can stand alone, they do build on each other. In Dr. McGehee's words, Eros is the love that yearns and wants something and Agape is the love that lets be, that allows and encourages the Other to be all that he or she can be. And within Eros, he says, lie the seeds of Agape. Eros, Agape, Mother, Father and Romantic Other are all interrelated. The ways in which he articulates and weaves these ideas together are simple, concise, easy to understand, and deep at the same time.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= =0D=0A= Facilitator's Biography:=0D=0A= =0D=0A= Marla Estes, residing in Ashland, is a workshop leader, teacher, writer, and mentor.

Since his late teens, when he began to see clearly following life altering physical trauma, he has focused his energies in two interrelated realms. The first is the realms of experiential education and explorations of the embodiment of consciousness, while the second is in a deep exploration of the sociological and systemic elements of the dominant world culture. The merging of these two realms has allowed him to perceive many of the key patterns and dynamics that define today's world and hold the promise for tomorrow's.=0D=0A= =0D=0A= He feels called to be as a midwife to the emerging culture, assisting both in its birth and development as well as in the navigation of the unforeseen consequences of humanity's past choices, which are defining the context for that emergence. Through extensive travels and speaking around the Pacific Northwest he has aligned with an inspired network of allies with whom he is crafting new paradigm networks and tools like the WorldCrafter's Network (http://www.worldcrafters.org) and CultureSeed (http://www.cultureseed.org) to support the emergence of this new culture. =0D=0A= =0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= To receive weekly e-mail updates about events at RVML, click http://www.rvml.org/forms/elist.html=0D=0A= ______________________________________=0D=0A= =0D=0A= RVML's VISION STATEMENT: "Our ability to discern truth is enhanced by exposure to a broader perspective on the human experience.
