March/April 2013 What is ECKANKAR? Programs for Spiritual Seekers Find out about it for yourself. Join us to discover how to Change Your Consciousness, Change Your Life. Visit a Community HU Song in your area. You are invited to attend an afternoon of spiritual discovery on Saturday, April 27th from 1:00 to 8:30 PM at the Woodbridge Hilton on Wood Avenue in Iselin, NJ, and learn for yourself how to, according to the program’s title, Change Your Consciousness, Change Your Life. You’ll hear talks, enjoy creative performances, and may visit the room available to your family that’s dedicated to children’s spiritual exploration. Stop by the Spiritual Experiences Room where there will be mini-discussion groups, spiritual tools to connect you with your own inner wisdom and folks on hand to answer your personal questions. Listen to international speaker, Mark Richardson, who brings the search for spiritual freedom alive in his talk at 7 PM. People the world over gather together to sing HU. Singing HU, regardless of spiritual path, age, background or religion is an opportunity for anyone and everyone. You may bring family members or friends along to share the universal gift of HU. Here’s what happens at a Community HU Song. The group sings HU (pronounced hue) for about 20 minutes, sits quietly in contemplation for several minutes, shares light refreshments, and goes on its way. Singing this ancient love song to God begins to open your heart to more love and your awareness to new viewpoints and attitudes.
