TWO Movies... ONE-ness!
Movie Screenings and Discussions

Friday, July 18, 7pm:
A Spiritual Cinema Circle and
IONS Community Group Event!


O N E

We are thrilled to bring you one of the most -requested films in Spiritual Cinema Circle's history, and a TGB favorite (we originally screened it in April 2007 to a full house)!  This is a feature length documentary that asks the ultimate questions of life to world renowned masters and ordinary people alike. First time filmmaker Ward Powers didn't realize that he'd start a world-wide conversation and an important spiritual movement by making this film, but he did. ONE reminds us of our similarities while celebrating our differences, leaving us with a message of hope about our true destiny.

Admission: FREE.  Open to All.  [Details]

Spiritual Cinema Circle (SCC) is a unique video membership club, and we are a SCC Community Group venue. Sign-up with SCC and receive spiritually uplifting movies every month!  Be entertained, enlightened and inspired by their movies, and then join us to discuss them!

Oneness Blessing: Deeksha Gathering!

Join the Oneness Blessing facilitators, Mohana, A.T., and Nicholas, as they help you access deep states of consciousness through the Oneness Blessing (Deeksha).

The Oneness Blessing process works by creating a neurobiological shift in the brain and awakening the energy centers (Chakras) in the body. Once initiated, it is a gradual Awakening process that leads you naturally to a lasting state of Oneness, inner peace, wellbeing and connection with your Higher Self. The process helps to set right relationships within yourself and with others.

More Deeksha dates are on the website:  Check them out!

OPEN TO ALL.  Suggested Contribution: $30 / $20 Students with valid ID

It is also known for its effectiveness on certain injuries and disease that do not respond to conventional treatment.
