Gen-X Video & Discussion Series: Metaphysical Idea Forum for the Next Generation

Alternative dialogue for people 18-32 - EVERY THURSDAY 7-9pm

60-minute video or lecture presentation followed by interactive discussion.

FREE ADMISSION



Description:

Interesting people, fascinating information and extra-ordinary conversation in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. "The Truth is Out There"

Sacred Geometry - Alternative History - New Technology - Parapsychology - Divine Creativity - Mythology - UFOs - Alternative Energy - ESP - Meditation - Remote Viewing - Subtle Energies - Crop Circles

Metaphysics is beyond physics, referring to any phenomena associated with the non-physical realm, including the quantum forces of sub atomic physics and the supernatural.

"The more you know, the more there is to know!"

In this interactive forum, participants gain an ever-broadening understanding of being human while navigating the complexities of the greater reality. In contrast to a typical discussion forum, participants are encouraged to explore ideas from a metaphysical perspective, where no idea is too far-out!

Utilizing intellect and intuition, participants explore: What is our purpose for existence? Where did we come from? How do our souls come into being? What is the triune nature of mind?


Presentation by Asha Deliverance- "Sacred Architecture Reborn"

Our dwellings can be tuned to the music of the spheres, like a musical instrument. Understanding the simple physics of creation, we discover why pyramids and domes create magical energies that enhance life. We will explore information found in ancient text, as well as cutting edge current physics discoveries and how we can apply these to architecture.

Note: Intended for participants 18-30 years-old only.

Ishara Larkin
Lecture: Dancing with the Ancestors
By Catherine J. Larkin

$3-5 Suggested donation
(Everyone welcome, no one turned away)








Presentation Description:

For most of my life I never thought about ancestors at all. They seemed irrelevant. Then nine years ago my journey took an unexpected turn. As I began my time as a wanderer I was shown a picture of myself dancing with people at sacred sites. As we danced the ancestors danced with us. Gradually I came to appreciate the power this image points to. Through my journey I have been shown the importance of honoring the ancestors and the great support this provides to our own unfolding.

During my years of traveling I have followed various threads:

-Honoring the Divine Feminine
-Connecting with earth energies
-Trusting in the soul's unfolding
-Relying on the power of Presence
-Aligning with the ancestors

In this talk I will share more about the pattern that is emerging as these threads are woven together. Specifically, I will introduce a female lineage eager to work with us to release old trauma patterns from the collective unconscious.

I have learned that the ancestors want our lives to flourish. They hold in trust a love of the earth and a remembrance of connection with the land and service to it that we need to recover. There is no going back, but there is a going forward supported by our ancestral connections.

Please join me in honoring the role of the ancestors and discovering the help they offer.

Lecture: The Miracle of Natural Stem Cell Enhancers- The Latest, Most Promising Breakthrough in Stem Cell Research

By Christian Drapeau, MSc

$3-5 Suggested donation
(Everyone welcome, no one turned away)




-- Post Production Note: No recordings of this presentation were made --

Presentation Description:

What are stem cell enhancers? Recent scientific developments have revealed that stem cells derived from the bone marrow, travel throughout the body, and act to support optimal organ and tissue function. Stem cell enhancers are products that support the natural role of adult stem cells in the body.

What are stem cells? Stem cells can be thought of as "master" cells. You've probably heard about the controversy of embryonic stem cells in the news. Stem cells are found in human embryos, but are also found in adult tissue.

Adult stem cells are most abundantly found in bone marrow. Stem cells circulate and function to replace dysfunctional cells, thus fulfilling the natural process of maintaining optimal health.

There is now an all natural, plant based extract, patented in 2004, and identified as a "stem cell enhancer." The patent states that the natural botanical and its extracts support the release of adult stem cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream where they can then circulate throughout the body, helping to maintain optimal health.

How will stem cell enhancers benefit me? As you age, the number and quality of stem cells that circulate in your body gradually decrease, leaving your body more susceptible to injury and other age-related health challenges.

Just as antioxidants are important to protect your cells from "free radical" damage, stem cell enhancers are equally important to support your stem cells in maintaining proper organ and tissue functioning in your body.

Natural stem cell enhancers help to support the release of stem cells from the bone marrow into the bloodstream. Through a chemical process already built into your body's natural physiology, these stem cells then travel to areas of the body where they are needed most.

Are natural stem cell enhancers related in any way to the religious and political controversy surrounding the use of embryonic stem cells? No. The advantage that natural stem cell enhancers have over laboratory grown stem cells derived from embryo or adult tissue is that the natural extract merely activates natural body processes that cause stem cells to leave the bone marrow and circulate throughout the bloodstream at a 25-30% increase over previous levels. Other natural body processes are also activated to cause the stem cells in the bloodstream to be drawn to areas of the body where they are needed most.

What this means is that no outside source of stem cells are required. One's own stem cells are being enrolled in greater abundance to perform their normal body function of replacing dysfunctional cells in order to maintain optimal health.

How significant is this discovery? The recent advances in stem cell research were listed as one of the most significant health-related stories in the past 25 years by CNN, second only to the complete mapping of the human genome.


Presenter's Biography:

Christian Drapeau is an author, research scientist and neurophysiologist with over thirteen years of research experience in the fields of natural foods and nutrition. He has lectured on nutrition to over 30,000 people since 1994, presenting profound health information and insights with clarity and humor.

Mr. Drapeau has been the Director of Research at Desert Lake Technologies since 2000, pursuing scientific research in collaboration with various universities and research centers on the health benefits of certain botanical raw materials. Based on research he produced, and information he researched from various other scientific teams, Mr. Drapeau and his collaborators recently proposed and published a breakthrough theory on adult stem cell physiology, and is the co-inventor of StemEnhance.

Mr. Drapeau received a bachelor's degree in Neurophysiology from McGill University, Montreal in 1987 and a master's degree from the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery from the Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University, Montreal in 1991.

Prior to theory development, Mr. Drapeau accumulated many years of experience observing the apparent health benefits derived from a remarkable fresh water plant. These beneficial results intrigued this young neurophysiologist, and he began intensive research to examine this phenomenon.

Initial results of this research lead him and his colleague, Dr. Gitte Jensen, to hypothesize what appeared to be a very intriguing theory involving adult stem cells, and how isolated extracts of this aqua-botanical seemed to work to optimize the natural behavior of stem cells in the body.

In 2000, the two scientists shared their views with Howard Newman, the owner of Desert Lake Technologies (DLT). DLT is a company with vast experience in aquaculture and harvesting of this aqua-botanical raw material. Together, this team ventured forward with the vision, skill and courage required to undertake a radical, new way of thinking about how the body keeps itself healthy. Using science to unlock the secrets in nature, the theory began to take on a life of its own.

In 2002, the theory was published in a medical journal named Medical Hypotheses, while other scientists from around the world also continued to publish research that further strengthened what Drapeau and Jensen believed they had discovered.

In 2004, a U.S. patent was awarded to these inventors, and further internal and external studies continued to corroborate their position.

Lecture: Marketing Your Business Without Compromise
By Andrea Adler

$3-5 Suggested donation
(Everyone welcome, no one turned away)

Workshop: Saturday, March 25, 2006 10-6pm at The Windmill Inn, Ashland.
For more information or to register, please call (541) 201-0372



-- Post Production Note: No recordings of this presentation were made --

Presentation Description:

Andrea Adler introduces a new paradigm for PR and Marketing. She will describe how we can integrate both spiritual and practical principles into our outreach, so that our businesses will thrive.

By working with the emotional, physical, linguistic and ontological facets, Andrea helps practitioners and business owners to bring these aspects into their outreach.

"When we begin to use a somatic, sensory approach - 'the body in its wholeness, the mind, and the spirit as a unity,' we resonate more with who we are and how we want to be perceived. When we come from a place of wholeness, we relax into our own skin, and we come from the heart when we communicate our product or service. As a result, we become the magnet for the people and opportunities we want to bring close to us.


Presenter's Biography:

Andrea Adler is an international speaker and workshop presenter. She has been a marketing consultant for 30 years, focusing her gifts on the holistic/ therapeutic community, artists and entrepreneurial spirits. Andrea is the Founder of Holistic PR and author of: Creating An Abundant Practice: A Spiritual and Practical Guide for Holistic Practitioners and Healing Centers, and soon to be released, The Science of Spiritual Marketing: Initiation into Magnetism. Andrea has written articles for Body Mind Spirit, New Connexions, Sentient Times, The Times Herald Record, Uno Mismo, Massage Magazine, Massage Today, and Living Natural.

By using ancient traditions of knowledge, Andrea empowers creative business owners to understand the principals of spiritual marketing. Her passion is to support those whose sole purpose is to raise consciousness and bring more light into the world.

In addition to her Introductory Program at the RVML, Andrea will present a ONE-DAY workshop entitled, The Science of Spiritual Marketing: Initiation Into Magnetism, Saturday, March 25th from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm at The Windmill Inn, 2525 Ashland Street. To register, call (541) 201-0372

This workshop is designed for small business owners, entrepreneurs, holistic practitioners and artists. It is a step-by-step approach on how to garner publicity, generate partnerships and cultivate media exposure. Participants learn to: articulate and define a clear sense of themselves, differentiate their business from others, create strong alliances; cultivate sponsorship opportunities, understand soulful branding, and social responsibility.

Marketing materials such as: websites, brochures, press releases, cards, bio's, on-line and hard-copy newsletters will be discussed in detail, breaking through the obstacles one faces when preparing these materials. As each person journeys through the topics, they begin to understand the promotional and marketing opportunities available to them in a way that resonates with their own sense of integrity and purpose.

Karen Anderson and Barry Martin Snyder
Workshop: The Pathless Path of Surrender to the True Divine Self
With Karen Anderson and Barry Martin Snyder


$20 - $30 suggested exchange. Please bring a blanket and pillow.








Workshop Description:


Seeker of truth
Follow no path.
All paths lead where
Truth is here

-e.e. cummings


All spiritual paths ultimately lead to the One Path home, complete surrender... where we find ourselves falling with total abandon into the arms of God.

As the false "I" dissolves, the true, eternal Self shines forth. Enlightenment is the dissolution of the illusion of the separate "i" sense. God-realization is the direct experience that one's true nature is a holographic fractal aspect of God. A Christed being is one in whom the separate I-sense is gone, and all that is left is God.

This is the next stage in human evolution.

Karen Anderson and Barry Martin Snyder are blessed to offer the synthesis of two gifts of grace. One transmission activates the divine flame within the soul lotus, or spiritual heart center, catalyzing remembrance of the true divine Self. The other, often called diksha, transforms the structure and function of the brain, restoring the mind to its natural state of Oneness consciousness.

Together, these gifts of grace result in the flowering of the fully divine human -- the emerging collective Christ.

Introductory Evening: Brief talk on the Pathless Path and question time followed by direct experience of the transmissions to awaken the mind and heart of Oneness, the Christ frequencies.

Lecture & Discussion: Business with Heart: Enhancing Success through Spiritual Principles
By Sharon Miranda

$3-5 Suggested donation
(Everyone welcome, no one turned away)









Presentation Description:

In this interactive discussion, Sharon Miranda relates her concepts for "next paradigm" community and business. WebSpiritSystems is her Internet platform which provides the vehicle for community to participate in this creation and WebSpiritCommunity is the online/offline local community model in action in Ashland. This is a co-creation, utilizing Internet technology, community member concepts, and business modeling. This is a "Web" we weave with spirit and spiritual energy, structured for the success of businesses in the community, and members in the community. Come hear about the model, the activity and how you can join in to this organic and energetic conglomeration of community evolution.


Presenter's Biography:

Sharon Miranda invented the business concept she calls "next paradigm". This is not just a new paradigm for business, but an inherent pledge to continue to evolve into what works better, and better creativity on the leading edge. Her ultimate vision is a new form of community whose members compassionately support one another; who share resources, shifting to a new paradigm around money and survival; a community that naturally reshapes traditional business into "next paradigm" business simply by virtue of the system itself; a community that thrives; and a community that can act quickly when needed, thanks to its communication system.

Sharon is a Microsoft Certified Professional and a Web Developer who has chosen to apply her skills to assist community and business in their evolutionary path.

Metaphysics is beyond physics, referring to any phenomena associated with the non-physical realm, including the quantum forces of sub atomic physics and the supernatural.

"The more you know, the more there is to know!"

In this interactive forum, participants gain an ever-broadening understanding of being human while navigating the complexities of the greater reality. In contrast to a typical discussion forum, participants are encouraged to explore ideas from a metaphysical perspective, where no idea is too far-out!

Utilizing intellect and intuition, participants explore: What is our purpose for existence? Where did we come from? How do our souls come into being? What is the triune nature of mind?


This Week's Subject: "Coincidence "

Video: "Behind the Scenes of The Celestine Prophecy Movie"

Description:

"If we pay attention, we can find a greater life, no matter where we are, no matter who we are, no matter what our circumstances are. If you tune into the mysterious coincidences in your life, if you discover and then follow your intuitions, you will find that there's a door of opportunity for a greater life for you. You can't be a victim and do it, but if you go beyond that, if you find a way out of whatever circumstance you're in, whatever block you think you might face, what happens is that it works. It always works. The only thing that holds any of us back is not believing that it works."
-- James Redfield


Note: Intended for participants 18-30 years-old only.

RVML is very pleased to present this special "sneak-preview" showing of the long-awaited feature film: The Celestine Prophecy.

Based on James Redfield's worldwide best-selling novel, The Celestine Prophecy is a spiritual adventure film chronicling the discovery of ancient scrolls in the rainforests of Peru. The prophecy and its nine key insights predict a worldwide awakening, arising within all religious traditions, that moves humanity toward a deeper experience of spirituality. The film features an international ensemble cast including Matthew Settle, Thomas Kretschmann, Sarah Wayne Callies, Annabeth Gish, Hector Elizondo, Joaquim de Almeida and Jurgen Prochnow.

When James Redfield authored The Celestine Prophecy, millions of readers passed it from hand to hand across America, discovering within its pages a life-affirming truth about synchronicity, intuition and personal destiny. It stayed on the New York Times bestsellers list for over three years, was translated into more than 40 languages, and influenced the world with some 14 million copies in print. Now just in time for the spiritual resurgence in America, the film adaptation of the runaway bestseller will be in theaters April 2006.

"Allowing groups to host special 'sneak previews' is a key part of our mission to get the word out about this movie and its message," states author/filmmaker James Redfield. "Because this was a book that so many people shared with their friends and family, passing it literally around the world, we wanted to create a community-feeling with the 'sneak previews' where people can share the movie experience."

Using an approach that is part adventure tale, part parable, and imbued with intriguing and exhilarating music, the film tells the story of John Woodson (Mathew Settle), whose life is at a crossroads. He is about to experience a dramatic and profound metamorphosis. Through a mysterious set of coincidences, he finds himself on an adventure to Peru in search of ancient scrolls, known as the Celestine Prophecy. Resistant at first, skeptical and unsure, John finds that with every step he takes, each person he encounters leads him to a new understanding. It is only in this letting go to a higher consciousness that he uncovers life's true purpose and his own destiny.

"It's impossible to overestimate the spiritual impact of The Celestine Prophecy. The movie version continues its mysterious influence, creating an actual model of this evolutionary awakening. The World will light up after you see it."
-Marianne Williamson, author "Return to Love"

___________________________________

"The Nine Insights":


- 1 -
We are discovering again that we live in a deeply mysterious world, full of sudden coincidences and synchronistic encounters that seem destined.

- 2 -
As more of us awaken to this mystery, we will create a completely new worldview - redefining the universe as energetic and sacred.

- 3 -
We will discover that everything around us, all matter, consists of and stems from a divine energy that we are beginning to see and understand.

- 4 -
From this perspective, we can see that humans have always felt insecure and disconnected from this sacred source, and have tried to take energy by dominating each other. This struggle is responsible for all human conflict.

- 5 -
The only solution is to cultivate a personal reconnection with the divine, a mystical transformation that fills us with unlimited energy and love, extends our perception of beauty, and lifts us into a Higher-Self Awareness.

- 6 -
In this awareness, we can release our own pattern of controlling, and discover a specific truth, a mission, we are here to share that helps evolve humanity toward this new level of reality.

- 7 -
In pursuit of this mission, we can discover an inner intuition that shows us where to go and what to do, and if we make only positive interpretations, brings a flow of coincidences that opens the doors for our mission to unfold.

- 8 -
When enough of us enter this evolutionary flow, always giving energy to the higher-self of everyone we meet, we will build a new culture where our bodies evolve to ever higher levels of energy and perception.

- 9 -
In this way, we participate in the long journey of evolution from the Big Bang to life's ultimate goal: to energize our bodies, generation by generation, until we walk into a heaven we can finally see.
