Lecture: Findhorn in the 21st Century- A Model for Conscious Living
By Pamela Joy and Carl Marsak
All Tueday evening events at
RVML are FREE ADMISSION
Presentation Description:
Angels, elementals and giant vegetables, group consciousness, sacred dance and co-creating the New Age. The Findhorn Foundation has been associated with all these and more since its founding in 1962 by Eileen and Peter Caddy and Dorothy McClean. What is it that over forty years later continues to draw thousands of visitors yearly from around the world?
This question will be addressed by Pamela Joy and Carl Marsak, two former Findhorn members who have been associated with this very special community since the early '80's. Together they will present their understanding of the continued relevance of what is considered to be the world's most famous intentional spiritual community.
The evening will include a short video presentation, meditation, group participation, and a time for questions.
Topics to be addressed include:
-co-creation with nature
-building conscious community
-living lightly on the Earth
-integrating spirituality into daily life
