SUMMARY:DECODING REINCARNATION. Esoteric & Scientific Proof of Life After Death
DESCRIPTION:with Jo Mooy & Patricia Cockerill \nFUNDRAISER FOR UNITY OF SARASOTA \n\n\n\n\nWhat happens when consciousness leaves the body? Science\, NDEs\, and ancient wisdom unite to explore life\, death\, and the soul’s journey.\n\n\n\nThis program explores the profound question of life after death through the lens of modern science\, near-death experiences\, and ancient spiritual wisdom. Drawing on research from world-class institutions\, it examines compelling accounts of consciousness beyond the body and what happens when the soul transitions from physical form. \nThe teachings delve into how souls choose their incarnation—selecting geography\, culture\, time period\, and the group souls they have traveled with across lifetimes. Astrological and generational influences\, along with the primary Jungian archetype each soul embodies\, are explored as guiding forces that shape both individual purpose and collective mission on Earth. \nThe nature of consciousness itself is examined in depth\, including discussions on whether it may be the elusive “God Particle.” Insights from physicist David Bohm\, the Dalai Lama\, and Swami Sarvapriyananda offer both scientific depth and clear\, accessible understanding. \nPatricia and Jo have taught esoteric principles and spiritual practices for over 40 years. They are authors of four books on metaphysical topics and founders of the SW Florida Women’s Meditation Circle and the annual Women’s Spiritual Retreats. They were also featured in the PBS documentary Siesta Key Awakening. \nPatricia Cockerill is a Theta and Sound Healer\, Quantum Healing teacher\, and founder of the Sarasota Healer’s Network\, dedicated to holistic well-being. She also shares a Daily Gratitude Practice on Facebook that inspires and heals thousands. Jo Mooy publishes Spiritual Connections and was a staff writer for Transformation Magazine for 15 years. \nTheir guided meditations and spiritual practices are available on Insight Timer and their YouTube channel. Subscribe to Jo and Patricia on YouTube for frequent updates. More information can be found at www.starsoundings.com. \n$20 Suggested Donation All proceeds benefit Unity of Sarasota. \nNO ONE TURNED AWAY \n\n\n\n\n\nGet your In-person tickets here \nIf you can’t make it in person\, we are streaming.

SUMMARY:Sangha SRQ - Buddhist Oriented Recovery Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Refuge Recovery is a practice\, a process\, a set of tools\, a treatment\, and a path to healing addiction and the suffering caused by addiction. The main inspiration and guiding philosophy for the Refuge Recovery program are the teachings of Siddhartha (Sid) Gautama\, a man who lived in India twenty-five hundred years ago. Sid was a radical psychologist and a spiritual revolutionary. Through his own efforts and practices he came to understand why human beings experience and cause so much suffering. He referred to the root cause of suffering as “uncontrollable thirst or repetitive craving.” This “thirst” tends to arise in relation to pleasure\, but it may also arise as a craving for unpleasant experiences to go away\, or as an addiction to people\, places\, things\, or experiences. This is the same thirst of the alcoholic\, the same craving as the addict\, and the same attachment as the codependent. \nEventually\, Sid came to understand and experience a way of living that ended all forms of suffering. He did this through a practice and process that includes meditation\, wise actions\, and compassion. After freeing himself from the suffering caused by craving\, he spent the rest of his life teaching others how to live a life of well-being and freedom\, a life free from suffering. \nSid became known as the Buddha\, and his teachings became known as Buddhism. The Refuge Recovery program has adapted the core teachings of the Buddha as a treatment of addiction. \nFor more information on this meeting\, email: rr-srq@mail.com

SUMMARY:Kirtan - Bhakti Bliss with Cheryl Chaffee at Unity of Sarasota
DESCRIPTION:Kirtan with Cheryl Chaffee and her band Bhakti Bliss will be held once a month at Unity of Sarasota in Sanctuary.\nBy donation to benefit Unity of Sarasota – Love Offering \n \nKirtan is a very different kind of music. Based on ancient chants\, it has the ability to quiet the mind if listened to with intention. Everyone experiences kirtan differently\, and it doesn’t have to be a religious experience. You can think of it as a sing-along. A kirtan concert is not your typical concert either. \nThe wallah (leader) sings the mantra\, and the audience sings it back. As you sing with each other you experience a deep connection with the musicians\, the other audience members and yourself. And when the music stops\, your mind is quiet. \nBecause kirtan has roots in India\, many of the songs are sung in Sanskrit. If you’ve ever chanted responses in Latin or Hebrew in your religious tradition\, then you know how powerful singing in an ancient\, holy language can be. You can be completely immersed in the sound\, with no words to distract the mind. The magic of the chants can then carry you within.\nKirtan is non-denominational\, the Universal language of Spirit\, the song of the Soul.

SUMMARY:Sangha SRQ - Buddhist Oriented Recovery Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Refuge Recovery is a practice\, a process\, a set of tools\, a treatment\, and a path to healing addiction and the suffering caused by addiction. The main inspiration and guiding philosophy for the Refuge Recovery program are the teachings of Siddhartha (Sid) Gautama\, a man who lived in India twenty-five hundred years ago. Sid was a radical psychologist and a spiritual revolutionary. Through his own efforts and practices he came to understand why human beings experience and cause so much suffering. He referred to the root cause of suffering as “uncontrollable thirst or repetitive craving.” This “thirst” tends to arise in relation to pleasure\, but it may also arise as a craving for unpleasant experiences to go away\, or as an addiction to people\, places\, things\, or experiences. This is the same thirst of the alcoholic\, the same craving as the addict\, and the same attachment as the codependent. \nEventually\, Sid came to understand and experience a way of living that ended all forms of suffering. He did this through a practice and process that includes meditation\, wise actions\, and compassion. After freeing himself from the suffering caused by craving\, he spent the rest of his life teaching others how to live a life of well-being and freedom\, a life free from suffering. \nSid became known as the Buddha\, and his teachings became known as Buddhism. The Refuge Recovery program has adapted the core teachings of the Buddha as a treatment of addiction. \nFor more information on this meeting\, email: rr-srq@mail.com
