The Peace of No Mind

SYNOPSIS: It is only by becoming present to the now that we can escape, or silence the incessant thinking and reacting of our minds.

FEATURED MUSICIAN: Pamela Van Kirk

TAKEAWAYS: Over time we realize that awareness is more than just a peaceful refuge from our thoughts.  We recognize this peaceful place as our true identity.

PODCAST:

As we continue our studies of the book PEACE and Where to Find It, by Christopher Papadopoulos we delve deeper to discover that lasting Peace is a state and presence of Being.
 
True Peace is not outside ourselves.  Our exploration of the teachings in this book are designed to increase our awareness of the present moment.  This is the only place Peace exists.
 
The title of this Sunday’s lesson is “The Peace of No Mind.”  It is only by becoming present to the now that we can escape, or silence the incessant thinking and reacting of our minds.
 
Our music will inspire and lift us.  With us we have Pamela Van Kirk as guest musician and soloist, Dagan Williamson on drums and our music director Gwen Gathercoal on piano.
 
Our invitation is always to come, to connect, to commune with the divine presence in you, as you and in all things everywhere present.  Together we are the architects of Peace.  I look forward to being with you.
 
Giving thanks for the Presence of Peace,
