Welcome to the Sacramento Valley Awakening to Spirit first monthly Blog posting.

On this page each month I will share about upcoming ATS gatherings as well as some articles and my own teachings that relate to these gatherings.

On Saturday, April 7, the Sacramento ATS gathering will feature Larry Melton. You can read Larry’s profile here.

Since 2004, by invitation from Adyashanti (an Awakened, American, non-dual spiritual teacher (see http://www.adyashanti.org), Larry Melton has been a spiritual teacher sharing the Dharma through satsangs (with groups), and dokusans (with individuals). Satsang literally means “association with Truth”. On April 7, Larry’s satsang will consist of a brief period of silence, a Dharma talk from Larry, then open dialogue with attendees. Larry does not teach from any particular spiritual ideology, but from the spontaneous experience and direct transmission of ever-present, changeless TRUTH.

Please join us and bring your innermost questions and deepest desire to know your true nature and awaken to Divine Oneness in everyday living.

At the upcoming ATS gathering in Davis on Saturday, April 21, I will share wisdom teachings on the true meaning and value of money in our lives, and how to have a non-attached relationship with it. I will lead a meditation and then give a talk on the spiritual “meaning” of money. The focus will be on how to relate to money for the highest spiritual good for yourself and others, and for flow in your life. I will also lead the group through an experiential exercise and discussion.

Charles Eisenstein has written a wonderful new book entitled Sacred Economics. I will discuss some of the material in the book. You may be interested in checking out Charles Eisenstein’s website: http://sacred-economics.com Please be sure to email me if you plan to come to either or both gatherings.
