  • "The ECK Satsang Discourses, Second Series," Lesson 12

    December 3, 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.

  • "Letters of Light and Sound 1 Discourses", Lesson 3

    December 4, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

    Online Zoom Event

    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.

    By now, you are well familiar with the basic doctrines of ECK. But what have you gained? If it is only a mental grasp of the Sugmad (God), the ECK, and the Mahanta, then the best is still to come. You are now ready to unfold your spiritual vision.

    The Letters of Light & Sound 1 Discourses are the next step in your spiritual training in ECK. In this series, we look at issues. You, even as Peddar Zaskq, are also getting ready to carry the message of Light and Sound to the people of the world. In your words and actions, they will see the Light of God. Some will ask about God and love and scores of other cares from their daily lives. And you need to know what to say.

    This year of spiritual training will help you do that, as you grow in love and wisdom.
