The Oneness Blessing is a transfer of divine energy.  It initiates a neurobiological change in the brain that when complete enables the senses to be free from the constant interference of the mind.  When the senses are unclouded by the mind’s interpretations, a natural clarity of perception occurs with accompanying spontaneous feelings of joy, inner calmness and a connection to the Oneness in everything.

A suggested love offering of $10-$20 will be gratefully accepted.
