On Wednesdays, starting on June 1, 2022, from 8:30-9:30 pm ET/6:30-7:30 MT there will be a new program “Surrender the one Who Surrenders”.
You are invited to join us for experiential witnessing of the one who surrenders in order to let go beyond this one. Gentle, highly experiential inner gazing supports noticing what always IS and noticing self-placed blocks to the full recognition of what we really are. Our True Self guides us to discern our True Nature from non-Divine feeling thoughts, feelings, energy-in-motion (e-motion) stories, and perceptions.
Laura Bedford will also have another new program, Contemplation of The Holy Spirit’s Interpretation of the New Testament on Tuesdays, starting June 14th on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month from 8:30-9:30 pm ET/6:30-7:30 pm MT. In this program, we will contemplate The Holy Spirit’s Interpretation of the New Testament. We’ll be noticing what arises and surrendering beyond resistance, if we are willing for this (and there is no judgment if we are not yet willing), as we explore NTI with Holy Spirit’s guidance.
Join us at 10:15 am ET/ 8:15 am MT for Our Weekly Sunday Gathering with Rev. Kelly BarberTitle: “Time Time Tickin”
Description: Some topics are just ripe for contrasting the ego’s use and purpose, and the Holy Spirit’s use and purpose. Time is one of Rev. Kelly’s favorites. Join us as we look at the concept of time, during our time together.
*Weekly gathering is held every Sunday morning at 10:15 am ET/8:15 am MT in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Join us after the Gathering for our Fellowship Time, hosted by Rev. Saina Fernandez.
Join us at 1:30 pm ET/ 11:30 am MT for Freedom Practice SanghaThis will be a time of sharing our inquiries, insights, and challenges, listening to others, or just knowing that we are in community as we find that undefended place within ourselves that longs to be free.
Join us at 5:00 pm ET/ 3:00 pm MT for The Mighty CompanionsRevs. 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.
Join us at 6:00 pm ET/ 4:00 pm MT for Something Genuine with Rev. Jacquelyn EckertRev. Jacquelyn Eckert facilitates this program, in which Awakening Together members and friends join together to watch and discuss TED talks that reveal the Truth of ourselves and our universe based on the actual experience of ordinary people. Their insights are genuine—not based upon theory or dogma—and give us a “man on the street” perspective on what we are coming to learn through Awakening Together.
Join us at 7:00 pm ET/ 5:00 pm MT for the Mini-Series: Awakening is Ceasing to Deny Inner Light with Cay VillarsOn the path to Spiritual Awakening, there can be many experiences of recognizing Inner Light/wholeness/oneness, the natural state of peace and joy. Yet many students report that recognition of inner Light/peace/joy seems to come and go and thus “Awakening” feels transient or “covered with a veil”. In this two-part mini-series, we will explore what “creates” the perception that there is a “veil” over inner Light and how the natural state of joy/peace cannot be a consistent experience until all hidden subconscious desires that deny inner Light are released (full unification of consciousness). Specific instructions will be provided for how to identify and release hidden desires that deny Divinity.
Part 1: The Crazy Dream Bubble Diagram
In this first installment of the mini-series, we will review the true definition of Spiritual Awakening (Choiceness Awareness) and how consciousness is a play (dream) of separation through the hidden desire for the experience of separation/smallness/limitation.

The Tao Te Ching is a Chinese spiritual classic. According to tradition, it was written around 6th century BCE by Chinese sage and governmental record-keeper, Lao Tzu.
Tao means “the way.” Te means “virtue” or “inner strength.” Ching means “great book” or “classic.” So, we can translate Tao Te Ching as “The Great Book of the Way’s Virtue.” However, “virtue” in this context does not refer to virtue as humans typically understand it. In fact, if humans really understood, embraced and lived the virtue of the Tao, appearances like conflict and lack would be impossible.

1. Become familiar with the classic Chinese work, Tao Te Ching.

She used the songs as a form of meditation and as gentle guides when she needed assistance during the purification phase of the spiritual path.
We are very pleased to share Resta’s music with you!
If you enjoy these songs and find them helpful, you can download them individually or by Volume on Resta’s website, Journey of the Mind. You can also find written copies of the lyrics on Resta’s website. Music of Christ is given freely without copyright restriction.

In this program, Paul through the vehicle of Satsang and repetition will be helping us to let go of misidentification and recognize Being Consciousness as our Truth.
Paul suggests repetition through Satsangs is helpful. It is an example of how the dreamING repurposes another programming element, repetition. What was used to (mis)identify, becomes instead a helpful undoing within the dreaming of that identification. The helpfulness of the Message is recognized in what Paul calls “traveling lighter.” In the surrender of an assumed need to escape/improve, the ever-present reality of consciousness already now/here becomes where our interest stays. Being consciousness in contact (in/as/through sensory experiencING), we appreciate being “successful” – already, as that Reality.

During our time together, we will explore what it takes to live from an open, undefended heart. Naturally, any true exploration of living from the heart necessarily entails taking a deep and sustained look at what prevents us from keeping our hearts open. Grounded in the knowledge that the essence of us, our true nature, is the very lovingness within us all, we will explore how to recognize and release egoic energies by cultivating open-hearted awareness practices which support us in directly experiencing our true Self. By leaning into willingness, steeped in self-honesty, and with a consistent dash of courage, we endeavor to open to whatever life brings, as it brings it, that is, on life’s terms. In so doing, we trust that everything – absolutely everything – is here for us to use for healing, for purification, and for learning to live from the heart. We look forward to supporting each other in our individual explorations of how we truly embrace the entirety of this show we call life.
