Each moment of our life is a desire or asking. Each moment is a request, a prayer. We pray without ceasing. And so, we are always in Prayer for Peace and Happiness or, for fear and misery. We each have a Divine Right to Choose Peace. Once you accept your right to choose peace, God’s Perfect Love will solve all your problems. The Miracle is in the Choosing.

Paul Cardillo has practiced law in Florida for 30 years. He is the author of The Power of Choosing Peace. Paul teaches A Course in Miracles and is regular speaker at regional ACIM events.

Cancelled - Mastering the Law of Attraction
2020-03-24 19:00 - 21:00 UTC | Unity of Sarasota, 3023 Proctor Road, Sarasota, FL, 34231, United States, Unity of Sarasota, 3023 Proctor Road, Sarasota, FL, 34231, United States
On-Going class on TUESDAYS
With Rev. Zan Benham
7:00 to 9:00 pm
(All New-Comers Welcome.) Class fee –$10.
This on-going class and support group blends the principles, tools, and processes of the Law of Attraction, with an emphasis on the works of Abraham/Hicks and their book, “Ask and It Is Given,” along with other notable teachings past and present. In this leading-edge class, we unravel our way into clarity in our understanding and use of the Law. Embodying and living the Law is a full-time occupation in becoming a mindful and conscious Co-Creator. Each week, we expand our use and understanding of this Law. We remember that embodying and living it is a full time conscious and conscientious occupation.
The Law of Attraction is another name for the Law of Cause and Effect or the Law of Sow/Reap. We live in this Law just as we live in gravity. Many today understand that we are all co-creators, that when one “asks,” “it is given.” We may make affirmations but often the shadow voice within us is louder and becomes our unintentional communicator to the Universe. In class, we work with tools or processes to help us become conscious of our desires and intentions. We are encouraged to live in its actualization. The workings of the Law are subtle and specific. It is each person’s own “inside job” in alliance with Source. This is a progressive class moving us out onto the leading edge of alchemy to infuse, enhance and expand spiritual growth, well-being, and connection to Source and Highest Guidance.
Class includes a meditation, a review of a process or two and a 20 minute DVD. Class fee –$10.
Rev. Zan Benham has taught the Law of Attraction for 10 years. She is a Universal New Thought minister, a Sufi Cherag, a spiritual counselor, certified hypnotist, shamanic practitioner, Reiki Master Teacher, and a ceremonialist.

Tibetan Monks from Drepung Gomang Monastery in Southern India will be at Unity of Sarasota!
February 24-28, 2020.
Location: The Enlightenment Center at Unity of Sarasota

They will be creating a sand mandala, an ancient Tibetan tradition signifying impermanence, non attachment, compassion and wisdom. They will be also teaching meditation and educating the public about the plight of Tibetans since the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1950. The Monks will showcase other cultural ceremonies during their stay at Unity of Sarasota.
Please come and experience these beautiful Monks and their culture. The public is welcome at the Opening Ceremony Monday, February 24th 6:00 pm and the closing ceremony Friday, February 28th 4:00 pm, meditation instruction at 11 and 4 each day, and at the two evening ceremonies, Tuesday and Thursday at 6 pm.

Two thousand Monks live in this one monastery with 4 other monasteries of similar size in close proximity. Tibetan Culture is being wiped out in China and these Monks are part of an effort to keep their culture and spirituality alive. They are feeding, educating, and housing thousands, and this tour raises money to continue their efforts. The Indian government has been extremely supportive of Tibetans in exile, allowing them to fully express their spirituality and culture.
