Video & Discussion: "A New Earth, Awakening to your Life's Purpose"
With Eckhart Tolle and Oprah Winfrey
Facilitated by Rev. Ruth Kirby
Free admission, donations appreciated
Description:
This spring, Oprah Winfrey broke new technological ground and hosted a free 10 week live web class online with Eckhart Tolle on his book, "A New Earth". 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.
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.
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.
Book Description:
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.
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.
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.
