SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 10AM-12:30PM, CONVERSATIONS WITH MARY MAGDELENE,
facilitated by Vikki Hanchin, Director of the Pittsburgh. YWCA Women's
Counseling Center. 

 <http://www.thegreenbough.com/calendar.htm#MMagdalene> The current interest
in Mary Magdelene as seen in The DaVinci Code, the recently found Gospel of
Mary, and the explosion of Magdelene books are serving an important historic
purpose: the re-emergence and re-valuing of the Feminine. 

Mary Magdelene's story today represents the restoring of the Holy Grail--
the Sacred Feminine-- to a masculinized world long out of balance. Along
with her, ordinary women--like you--are answering the call to be
Grail-carriers, carrying the healing grace of the feminine back into the
world. 

IN THESE CONVERSATIONS WE WILL: 

*	Explore the story of Mary Magdelene as an archetype of the Sacred
Feminine 

*	Connect our own journeys for healing and empowerment with her
journey from an accused prostitute to a woman of spiritual authority 

*	Experience guided, imaginary conversations with Mary Magdelene to
receive inspiration and wisdom for our own lives 

*	Reclaim our own paths and purposes as Grail-carriers, restoring the
balance of the Feminine to a needful Earth 

Prepaid registrations by 10-26-06; $20. Call 724-331-9085. For more

Workshop

We are again hosting this very special event for everyone seeking deeper
states of consciousness. 

Come join the Oneness University Deeksha Team, comprised of Sri Mohana
Santhanam, Sri Jay Bender, and Sri Ruth Hordis, as they help you access deep
states of consciousness through Deeksha --energy transfers for
enlightenment. The Deeksha process works by creating a neurobiological shift
in the brain and awakening the energy centers (or Chakras) in the body. Once
initiated, it is a gradual Awakening process that leads you naturally to a
lasting state of Oneness, Inner Peace, and Wellbeing.

The team has been directly trained by the monks of Oneness University in
India, founded by Sri Bhagawan and Sri Amma.
