Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras
~Open to current members only this year.

Description: The Light of the Soul states in several sutras how we can begin to control our physical, emotional, and mental bodies. The commentaries provide more understanding of each sutra and present suggestions to improve our unruly personalities. The ways to control the physical and emotional bodies are presented clearly. As we follow along this road map it will eventually lead us to control of the mind and its illumination by the soul. The Yoga Sutras show us the way and the means through which we can allow the light of our soul to shine more brightly through its form and thus become better servers for humanity and the spiritual hierarchy. They are step-by-step instructions toward the expansion of consciousness and eventual enlightenment.

Esoteric Astrology
~Open to anyone.

Description: “Astrology is described in this book as “the science of relationship” – a relationship that exists between all living organisms within the universe. Ray energy qualities affect these centers of consciousness, and in addition, they influence the quality and energy of the ruling planets and the zodiac signs. From an outside viewpoint (exoteric) astrology is seen as a vast, involved, and complex subject. Through the esoteric, (inside),  perspective, while still vast, all inclusive, and complex, it is also possible to perceive the thread that unites and the pattern prevailing throughout the whole system. A basic simplicity in the grand design emerges, that can serve to interpret the whole.”

Agni Yoga Groups
~Open to anyone.

Description: Agni is Sanskrit for sacred fire symbolizing the inner spiritual fire or consciousness. It builds on Raja Yoga, the Yoga of the Mind, and is the path to the synthesis of our being and our divine essence of cosmic fire. This allows us to identify with all Cosmos through the Heart.

The Agni Yoga teachings emphasize the importance of spiritual transformation and self improvement as a means to contribute to the betterment of humanity. It focuses on the development of the individual’s higher qualities, such as compassion, love, and intuition, and encourages the cultivation of a harmonious relationship with nature and the universe.

Agni Yoga places great emphasis on practical application and self-discipline. It encourages individuals to integrate spiritual principles into their daily lives, promoting ethical conduct, selflessness, and the pursuit of truth. The teachings emphasize the unity of all religions and the essential oneness of humanity, transcending cultural and religious boundaries.

The core principles of Agni Yoga revolve around the idea of service to others and the recognition of the interconnectedness of all life forms. It teaches that spiritual progress can be achieved through active participation in the world and selfless acts of compassion and service.

It is important to note that Agni Yoga is not a religious doctrine or a dogma but rather a spiritual path that encourages individuals to develop their own direct experiences and insights. It invites seekers to explore their inner nature, expand their consciousness, and contribute to the evolution of humanity.

Registering Our Place in the New Civilization
~Open to anyone.

Description: This year we will adjust our approach through the increased use of meditation, of spiritual journaling and last year’s syllabus enriched by discourse so that we may refine, clarify and synthesize our registration of Group Consciousness in Soul supporting our contribution to the emerging new civilization.

A few days before the scheduled monthly meeting, we will send out an expansive question to be used as a focus for our gathering. Participants will sit with these questions with the recommendation to journal their insights. You may forward your insights to the focalizers. The focalizers will compile and forward these to the rest of the group.  It is not mandatory that you read them. When you register for this course, you are not committed to attending every gathering. This course is about building Group, energetically, through intention and attention to a monthly expansive question.  As one group, we see ourselves “In the rhythm of life, ever One ever serving.”

We ask that all participants be willing to share their intuitive understanding of this emerging civilization; dreams, music, and poetry are welcome.  The co-focalizers will demonstrate examples from their practical experience of the Ageless Wisdom as envisioned in Lucis Trust’s Arcane School expanding co-creative service through Triangle relationships.

Facilitators: Duncan Mason, Martha Gallahue, Margo Rush
Contact: Martha Gallahue – marthagallahue@gmail.com

Schedule: Last Sunday of the month 11:15 AM  Pacific, 2:15 PM Atlantic
Location: We will meet on ZOOM, yet hope to meet in person occasionally throughout this season.

A Treatise on Cosmic Fire
~Open to anyone.

Description: The teaching in this book should tend to an expansion of consciousness, bringing about a recognition of the adequacy, as a working basis, for both science and religion, of that interpretation of the processes of nature which has been formulated for us by the Master Minds of all time. It should tend to bring about a reaction in favor of a system of philosophy which will link both Spirit and matter, and demonstrate the essential unity of the scientific and religious idea.
