The ONE thing between YOU and this month's programs at The Green Bough is...

  <http://www.thegreenbough.com/images/pennDOT.gif> 

... Penn DOT and its construction projects on the Parkway EAST (I-376)!

We have added helpful resources on our website to assist you in planning
your trip to Irwin this weekend. Do not allow this road project to keep you
from enjoying some of the best individual and collective experiences for
transformation. This may be EXACTLY what preparing for a shift in
consciousness is all about!

By all means, avoid the Parkway East, and find alternate ways to get to the
PA Turnpike or to Route 30 East, with ease and with minimal stress...

Oneness  <http://www.thegreenbough.com/meditation.htm#OnenessDeeksha>
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. 

NOTE: Deeksha dates for OCT & NOV have changed:  Check
<http://www.thegrenbough.com/meditation.htm#OnenessDeeksha> them out!

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

  South African Spiritual Healer & Psychic Surgeon  

  <http://www.holisticpittsburgh.com/images/AlfReynolds.jpg> Saturday,
August 23, 7-10 PM

We are pleased to announce a very special event with Alfred Reynolds,
Spiritual healer and trance medium. He has been practicing mediumship and
spiritual healing for over 40 years. He is the founder and the spiritual
leader of the Sanctuary of Love and Light, based in Durban, South Africa. As
a channel, he uses the White Light to perform healings and psychic surgery,
that some have called "miraculous". This is a once-in-a-life time chance to
witness this level of Light and healing.

Alf Reynolds will be assisted by Viven Perumal, and will demonstrate psychic
healings. A suggested donation of $40 is requested, to benefit the Sanctuary
of Love and Light. Anyone with serious physical or emotional challenges is
invited to come. No donation is required or expected for healings. Willing
volunteers also needed as healing subjects.

Introduction to Buddhist Meditation
led by the Monks of the Pittsburgh Buddhist Center

 <http://www.pittsburghbuddhistcenter.org> In our life we all need to
maintain physical health. We need to build healthy relationships. We need to
achieve personal satisfaction and inner happiness. We need to realize the
deep sense of meaning of our life. What is essential for all the above
things is a healthy mind. The ancient Greeks glorified the body, its
wellbeing and health, as well as the mind. The Romans famously said that
man's ideal should be 'mens sana in corpore sano'! A healthy mind in a
healthy body. And in China Lao Tse spoke of harmony achieved by equilibrium
of the mind. And the Buddha said that good health was the greatest profit,
and contentment is the greatest wealth one could accumulate. 

With the learning and practice of meditation let us make a change in our
lives and make a new beginning. 

*	
Living is stressful and burdensome dealing with daily issues.

*	
We are constantly disturbed by negative and destructive emotions.

*	
We are trapped in by our negative thoughts. 

*	
Let us learn a new way to put away the burdens and to think constrictively
and positively.

*	
Learn to let go and live in the present moment. 

There is a way out. It is not running away from life but transforming this
very life for the better. It is about gaining mastery over our thoughts.
Come and learn the skills of meditation to enhance your capacity to reinvent
your lives, think differently, to remain calm, compassionate, and
insightful. 

Come and join us at The Green Bough to explore the possibility and the ways
for cultivating a healthy mind.  RSVP kindly requested 724-331-9085.  Heart
donation.
