CARLA GOLDSTEIN of OMEGA INSTITUTE: Women, Power and a New Paradigm by Angelina Perri Birney
Omega’s
Women & Power
conferences, cultivating those values, aerodynamic events, inspiring and affirming women’s leadership and empowerment. “Of course there’s only so much one can do in a weekend,” Carla remarks, “but it’s definitely an inspirational event and acts as a confirmation for those of us who think Hey, I want to wake up and strengthen this part of myself. Also, the conference offers a sense of community. Even though technologically the web connects us more than ever, we’re very isolated from one another. We live in a hyper-specialized society and culture so you could spend your entire life just staring at a computer screen. That’s why one of the main goals of the conference is to bring people into community with each other and to build a movement — a social movement.”

Extraordinary Love by Kaushal Aras
"Extraordinary Love is the ability to love for the sake of love itself. This ability to radiate extraordinary love in our lives requires a paradigm shift in how we love that can fundamentally transform every relationship that we know...
Unless, we are willing to shift the context or the paradigm that we operate in about love, any actions we undertake will lead to only a variation of the past. Take the case that most of us have been conditioned by society and environmental factors to operate in one or all the three models of love..."

The Revolution that the Divine Mother is Preparing by Andrew Harvey
"
The message we are being sent by history can be summed up in four words: Transform or die out... Teilhard de Chardin wrote, “Humanity is being taken to the point where it will have to choose between suicide or adoration.” I have no doubt that we are now at that point. Human survival depends on whether we are brave enough to face the full desolation of what we have done to our psyches and the planet, and wise and humble enough to turn to the divine insight inside us to learn what we need to go forward. This is not an apocalyptic scenario—not a scenario at all, in fact. It is fact. "

An Ecological Disaster: Polluting the Waters of Life by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
"If we are to reclaim a real relationship to life and to our planet, we must listen to the real story that is being told. It is not just a story of a deep well disaster happening in the Gulf. It is about how our present civilization is causing the waters of life to be polluted and how at present we cannot stop it. And this disaster is taking place all around us and also in our own souls. Only if we listen to life will we know how to respond."

Reclaiming the Ancient Tradition of Tree Wrapping by Jan Johnsen
"The tradition of wrapping tree trunks or adorning branches of special trees is a visual statement that says, “We honor this tree and respect its vital presence.” It is often done with fiber rope, natural ribbon, or fabric and it is used to highlight unusual trees, as a supplication and/or protective measure.
Tree wrapping has been practiced for thousands of years in countries across the world. In Japan, it has been elevated to an art form and derives from the Japanese Shinto belief that all natural forms are imbued with spirit. "

Panache Desai: Vehicle of Peace, Love and Light
"People experience the energy in very individual ways. Some speak of a tangible feeling of a vibration or energy moving through their body. Some experience being filled with an ecstatic divine love. Some experience the release of that which is limiting them in their personal and spiritual growth. Many awaken to spiritual gifts and abilities. What is most important to remember is that people draw to them whatever experience they need at that time for their evolution."

Why We Need To Work With Symbols by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
"A symbol is not just an image, but is like a door into the inner world of the soul, through which we can access the energy and meaning that belongs to this sacred dimension of our self. However, a symbol will only reveal its magical nature if we approach it with the right attitude, if we have the correct quality of consciousness.
Symbolic consciousness is a way of working with symbols that allows their meaning and energy into our consciousness. It is like a key that is needed to unlock the real potential, the energy of a symbol."

Eden Village Camp: Big Fun, Small Footprint! by Vivian Lehrer
"Eden Village Camp is a living model of a thriving, inspired, sustainable Jewish community, grounded in social responsibility and vibrant spiritual life. Eden Village creates a fun, safe and inclusive space for young people to be themselves – to learn, grow and explore their true gifts and passions. As campers gain both technical skills like outdoor living and social skill sets like learning to thrive in community, they deepen their sense of personal purpose, contribution and Jewish identity. Campers consider and express those values through activities like hands-on farming, hiking, arts, contemplation and service to others, which simultaneously transforms them and changes the world. "

Dreams: Reconnecting Us To The Sacred by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
"We are hungry for the sacred, for meaning to return to our lives. And this meaning is waiting within us--the sacred is present in the symbols of our dreams. But first we have to create an inner space that is not corrupted by outer desires, purify ourselves and our intention. In the Native American tradition the individual often had to fast and be purified by a sweat lodge in order to be ready to fully experience the inner world. Any dreamwork, but especially spiritual dreamwork, requires a continual attitude of inner attention and a commitment not to use the energy of the inner for personal gain. Dreams can reconnect us with the sacred but only if we learn how to be receptive and respect their symbols and images."
