Next meeting and theme
A Gentle Reminder - Our next meeting is Thursday 14th May, 2009 at 6:45pm Venue - We meet at the church house of St Mary’s Catholic Church in South Brisbane. This Week's Theme– Our reading groups will continue with The Power of Now and A New Earth. The video is “The Secret of Happiness”. Extract from Oneness with all Life The elimination of time from your consciousness is the elimination of ego. It is the only true spiritual practice. What we are speaking of is the elimination of psychological time, which is the egoic mind’s endless occupation with past and future and its unwillingness to be one with life by living in alignment with the inevitable isness of the present moment.
