Satsang with WAYNE LIQUORMAN ~ Chicago
October 26, 27 and 28
October 26 @ 881 Harvard Court, Highland Park, IL
7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.
October 27 & 28 ~ T.B.A.
March 2007, we were blessed to have Wayne come teach here in Chicago for the first time. It was very moving and life changing for many of us. His simple message opened up a deeper awareness that has change our life perspectives. Thank you Beloved Wayne!
"Everything is the functioning of Consciousness, because Consciousness is all there is. That's the fundamental pointer of the Teaching. Everything is Consciousness, thus, everything that happens is Consciousness." But Consciousness is not some thing that can be absorbed by the human mind. When we use the word "Consciousness," we are not talking about a thing. If it were a thing, then it could be comprehended by the human mind; if it were an object, it could be known. in this teaching, the word "Consciousness" is used to point to everything - the source and the substance of everything - and, yet, it is not a thing, not an object. It can never be known in its entirety because there is no "it" to be known. Consciousness can only be known in its aspect, which is this entire manifest world." (Wayne's Book: Never Mind)
I also have Wayne's books for sale if you would like to purchase what I feel is written masterpieces.
For more details contact Maggie @ 847-780-4116

SATSANG WITH MOOJI ~ First Visit to Chicago
November 9, 10 and 11, 2007 t.b.a.
"Satsang reminds us we are already free by constantly pointing to the quality-less awareness in which manifestation appears. For those who are open, this recognition is the soap which removes the age-old grime of ignorance and suffering caused by mistaken identification with the unreal. This leaves us as the blissful and perfect being we truly are. Satsang is the invitation to step into the fire of Self-discovery. This fire will not burn you; it will only burn what you are not". Mooji

Thank you ~ Pamela Wilson
It was our gift and pleasure to have Pamela spend the weekend with us in Satsang. We all felt the grace and magic of being together in truth, having the opportunity to rest in our hearts, and creating space to be with that which Is. Both Charlie and I feel blessed for this great gathering.
A deep learning Pamela offered is "worry is love under pressure".
Thank you dearest sweet Pamela for coming to Chicago!
Much love for you, Maggie and all who sat with you during March 15th weekend. Visit Pamela's website at: www.pamelasatsang.com
