"The ECK Satsang Discourses, Second Series," Lesson 4
April 2, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Online Zoom Event
For further information, contact your Arahata.
The ECK discourses are written with a secret, internal rhythm that gradually unfolds your consciousness in a very precise and orderly manner.
When you become a member of Eckankar, you receive a discourse series for your personal study. You study one lesson a month at home.If you like, you can also join an ECK Satsang class to share experiences, insights, and questions.
A few short years ago you put on the cloth of ECK in thought, feeling, and action. By degrees, Spirit has opened your outlook on issues in life until today you are a totally different person.
Now you are ready to be stretched again by the hand of Divine Spirit, but doubts still linger about your relationship with God. The sure way to ECK is to consider the real things needed for spiritual progress: 1) the spiritual exercises, 2) complete faith in the ECK, and 3) doing all in the name of the Mahanta. This creates a strong aura that cannot easily be pricked by misfortune, sorrow, or betrayal, for Soul is then on the high road to God.
In The ECK Satsang Discourses, Second Series you will learn that a rapport with the Holy Spirit nurtures but a single aim: a burning desire to experience God. That alone. This is the best motivation that anyone could ever hope to get for himself.

"The ECK Dream 2 Discourses," Lesson 9
April 3, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Online Zoom Event
For further information, contact your Arahata.
Thanks to the secret knowledge of dreams, you are beginning to see life as it is.
Life is a spiritual play. To live it well, we must learn the order of things. What drives us to behave as we do, and what can we do about it?
The ECK Dream 2 Discourses are to help open you to more divine love, because God’s love is our spiritual food. Who can truly live without it?
We want to know how history plays upon us through our kin, friends, and adversaries alike. This knowledge, found in dreams, helps us to gain confidence in ourselves. We become responsible human beings who know the power of divine love. It can heal all wounds.
The ECK Dream 2 Discourses encourage you to reach your full spiritual powers. The discourses are to help you understand and join the festival of life, as the ECK Masters do. The way begins with dreams.

"The Master 2 Discourses," Lesson 10
April 8, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Online Zoom Event
For further information, contact your Arahata.
The ECK discourses are written with a secret, internal rhythm that gradually unfolds your consciousness in a very precise and orderly manner.
When you become a member of Eckankar, you receive a discourse series for your personal study. You study one lesson a month at home. If you like, you can also join an ECK Satsang class to share experiences, insights, and questions.
The Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad, Book One, says: “The true gospel of ECK is to give every chela Truth. This truth is to lift him into the worlds of Light and Sound: the Kingdom of the Sugmad.”
This sets the pace for The Master 2 Discourses. With each lesson comes a monthly spiritual exercise that unfolds a new dimension within you.
A good teacher encourages his students to be self-sufficient. A student may hunt for years before he finally learns that it is impossible to graduate from learning or experience. A teacher may offer guidelines to living, but the student must himself accept the responsibility for getting an edge on his own life.
This is a new opportunity for unfoldment in ECK. If you have watched, you no doubt have seen how carefully the Mahanta has moved you into a more spacious universe of being.
In the past your attention was dedicated to what you might learn about yourself. Suddenly, the emphasis is changed. Now you wish to determine the real cause that forms the foundation of superficial causes. In other words, rather than wanting to know mainly about yourself, you now wish to discover the wholeness of life.
Perhaps you did not notice that your awareness has taken on wings and soared from a personal to a more universal point of view. This is the detached state. Rather than more apart from life, we are closer to it.

The purpose of the ECK Dream 1 Discourses is to open you to your own inner guidance. The Dream Master will bring you to a different kind of dream than you have ever known and can help you to understand what before were only jumbled dreams of little value.
In time, he will replace them with dreams of insight, wisdom, and knowledge. They are about the most important person in the world—you.

You are now ready to learn what it truly means to be an ECK chela.

"The Holy Fire of ECK, Book 4" (High Initiate book discussion)
April 23, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:15 pm
Online Zoom Event
For High Initiates only.
As ECK High Initiates, we have unprecedented opportunity to unfold toward ECK Mastership in this lifetime. The top of the spiritual mountain rises through the mists before us.
Sometimes we wonder, What awaits around the next bend of this sacred climb?
Of course the answer lies in the relentless love and guidance of the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master. Inwardly, we’re encouraged by his visage, voice, whispers, and even clear directives. Outwardly his talks and writings reveal key trail markers to the summit.
Here is a collection of vibrant articles from the H.I. Letter and The Golden Leaf with the power to dispel mist and illuminate the path upward. The Holy Fire of ECK, Book 4, can help you
- see how leading a seeker to the ECK teachings can be an initiation;
- recognize the ECK Masters at work and the secrets of divine miracles;
- understand how a destabilizing event can be a good thing, and above all;
- serve as a golden-hearted instrument of divine love.
In his introduction Sri Harold writes, “The future holds exciting and challenging prospects. Love the SUGMAD, the ECK, and the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master, and you will prosper spiritually in every possible way.“Read and enjoy this book. I’ve put my heart into it for you.”
This class meets monthly. This month we will cover Chapter 5.
All High Initiate (5th initiates and above) events are open to KY and WV High Initiates.

"The Flute of God" (Book discussion)
April 24, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 7:45 pm
Online Zoom Event
You are invited!
This is a classic guidebook on how to follow the call of Soul. It can show you the truth about yourself.
“We can look forward to a greater life than merely reliving former experiences, by becoming a conscious Soul handling the environment, body, life, spirit, or whatever you might call the ECK power, and participating in events of our own creation,” writes Paul Twitchell in chapter 1. “Then life becomes the pleasure it should be and could have always been.”
Discover the secret of imagination, the divine faculty of Soul which you can use to transform your life. Learn the seven fundamental spiritual laws which allow you to create your future in harmony with the universal Spirit, for the highest good of all concerned.
If you want to master your destiny and become a conscious Co-worker with God, this book can show you how to do it—by listening to the guidance of Divine Spirit.
This event uses the book, The Flute of God, however, having a copy of the book is not required, as we will read select passages to discuss.
This class meets monthly. This month we will cover chapter 8.
