Concert, chantfest, musical group meditation, a yoga class in melody . . . Snatam’s divinely melodic songs based on traditional Sikh mantras are augmented by simple, heartfelt English verses that express the meanings these sacred syllables hold and help the audience forge their own emotional connection.

Snatam often leads audiences in a round of pranayama (yogic breathing) or gets everyone on their feet for a stretching exercise that soon becomes a sacred dance. By the end of the night you will be let in on a great cosmic secret: devotional music is fun. This concert is proudly presented by: Ashland Resource Center and RASA Center for Yoga and Wellness.

SpiritPathNow Note : Snatam Kaur is a cherished member of the Sikh community in Eugene with a large local following among her national following and we are delighted to include her Oregon concerts in our SPN calendar.

Public Lecture Series with Sadhviji Chaitanya
"Understanding Oneself: Vedanta, Psychology and the Unconscious"
Location: The Trauma Healing Project (in the Heeran Center Building)
2222 Coburg Rd. Suite 300, Eugene
Cost: Free, donations accepted
For more information contact Faith at 541-870-9307, faithlacross(at)gmail.com
Visit www.arshavm.org for more information about Vedanta and Sadhviji

Description of the topic:
Vedanta is a body of knowledge that teaches the truth of oneself as limitless and free of fear and sorrow. Even as one tries to abide in this reality, one tends to get caught up with the mind thereby turning life into an emotional rollercoaster. By seeking to understand the person rather than just the personality, this talk series will unfold the knowledge of oneself as the whole, the witness of everything, including the mind. Additionally, practical techniques to free oneself from the grip of the limiting mind and live in the present will also be expounded.

Love Offering.

Everyone, whether taking the class or not, is invited to the first session when the DVD, Emerson the Ideal in America, a biography of Emerson's life will be shown.

Ralph Waldo Emerson has been the most quoted, most inspirational writer in America for over a hundred years. American Voice of Self-Reliance, and The Oversoul have influenced the New Thought movement profoundly. He is quoted by all the great metaphysical writers, and he was the first to break through traditional Christianity in such a way as to inspire multitudes to higher thought. Background information on Emerson's times and his fellow members of the Transcendentalist circle is covered. They include Bronson Alcott, Margaret Fuller, Henry David Thoreau, and Walt Whitman.

Friday, April 9, 7 pm (also on Sunday, April 25, 1:30 pm.)
Movie Night: Oh My God DVD
Center for Spiritual Living,
390 Vernal Street, Eugene
$5

In every corner of the world, there's one question that can never be definitively answered, yet stirs up equal parts passion, curiosity, self-reflection and often wild imagination: "What is God?"

Filmmaker Peter Rodger explores this profound, age-old query in the provocative non-fiction feature Oh My God. This visual odyssey travels the globe with a revealing lens examining the idea of God through the minds and eyes of various religions and cultures, everyday people, spiritual leaders and celebrities. His goal: to give the viewer the personal, visceral experience of some kind of reasonable, meaningful definition of one of the most used—some might say overused—words in most every language.
