Journey to the White Lions Friday, May.13.2011, 7-8:30pm
In this gathering, Reverends Diane Berke and René Ragan will share about their journey to the White Lions of the Timbavati region of South Africa. This pilgrimage profoundly impacted their own spiritual journeys and transformed their vision of the divine in nature. They will also share experiences and photographs of their visit to an elephant sanctuary, to the Kruger National Park, and to a village where the chief is working against the odds to pass the indigenous culture, arts and wisdom on to the next generation.

West African Shaman, diviner, teacher, and author, Malidoma Somé is coming to One Spirit for an intimate one hour talk in which he will share his insights on how we as urban dwellers can begin to find ways to gather in ritual space at this time of challenge in the world to listen in to the deep wisdom held in nature, and the earth itself that will inspire; hope, faith, healing and transformation within ourselves, in our children, and in our children's children.
This is a unique opportunity to witness Malidoma Somé's wisdom and hear some of his fascinating life experiences. Malidoma's one hour talk will be followed by a question and answer period

One Spirit Cinema Presents: Tuesday, May.17.2011, 7:00 pm
In the Fire of Grace, Iranian-born dancer Banafsheh interprets five stages of the soul's archetypal journey to union with the Beloved in movement that marries, as Rumi's mystical vision does, the serene peace with the fierce, gorgeous passion of the divine. She is accompanied by Andrew Harvey as the voice of 12th-century Sufi mystic poet Jalalludin Rumi, summoning her deeper into the ecstatic flames of death and rebirth.
This evening will feature the showing of the film, as well as the chance to dialogue with Banafsheh and Andrew afterward, as we open to direct experience of the urgency of Rumi's message for our turbulent world and the shattering, glorious paradoxes of the mystical journey.
