The Divine Name
at Hummingbird Ranch, NM
PO Box 547, Mora,
NM 87732
Join Jonathan and Andi Goldman for a week-end of Vibrational Activation at the extraordinary Hummingbird Living
School in the Sangre de Cristo
Mountains of New Mexico.
This 3-day event over Labor Day Week-end will feature a very special
presentation of The Divine Name: Frequency Shifting for Tumultous
Times.
Jonathan
and Andi will co-present a step by step process of
sonic training and vibrational initiation which will
culminate in the sounding of The Divine Name, a universal sound, that, when
intoned, can bring harmony and healing to ourselves and to the planet. This
sacred name, encoded within our DNA, is the personal name of God, once found in
the religious texts that link over half the world's population. Prohibited and
then lost for nearly 2,500 years, The Divine Name is available once again. It
is a sound that when vocalized has the ability to resonate both the physical
body and subtle energy fields of anyone who intones it-irrespective of
religion, tradition, or belief. It has the power to issue in a new era of human
consciousness, uniting us in healing, peace, and oneness.
Friday night multi-media presentation on the scientific and
spiritual basis of using sound for healing and transformation. Hummingbird Ranch

10 Billion Beats
The
Beat Returns
Maybe it is ridiculous to think we can change the
world. We know it is ridiculous not to try. Are we simply victims of fate, or
are we creating a fate that will victimize us?
This is a Global Event that will use drumming to focus a collective positive
intention, then send it around the world in a
continuous wave to improve our relationship with each other, and with a living
planet upon which we live, breath, and have our being. 10 Billion Beats started
in Sept. 2009. It grew and grew until nearly 200,000 people participated around
the globe. In 2010 the grassroots movement will be even bigger and we invite
you to be a part of it. We are not trying to have the world's largest drum circle, we are trying help people stand with each other
around the globe through the uncertain times ahead.
"It
is quite true that in the history of human thinking the most fruitful
developments frequently takeplace at those points
where two different lines of thought meet..." Werner Heisenberg

The Manataka Drum Society will be participating in this event.

Self,
Soul and Serenity:
Being
the Change You Want to See in the World with don Oscar Miro-Quesada
Lee's Summit, MO (Greater Kansas City area)
This final workshop in the Nature, Culture and Self
trilogy, as taught by don Oscar Miro-Quesada, will
focus on assisting people from all walks of life to live a soul-infused
experience of Self to serve as "bridge" between Inner (cultural) and
Outer (natural) Worlds.
During this
intensive apprenticeship weekend, don Oscar will guide
participants into a soul-infused experience that will provide insight into how
to live in harmony within ourselves and the outside world in these times of
ancestral prophesy and change. During this ceremonial window of the Autumnal
Equinox, we will sit together in circle, remembering our Sacred Selves within
the energy of these celestial alignments.
We will
celebrate the Self-renewal that this location provides as we integrate our own
sacred practice using the ceremonial power and beauty of the Pachakuti Mesa tradition. This intensive weekend
apprenticeship is open to all openhearted individuals who feel the call to
re-connect, to re-member, and to awaken to a new way of Being
in the world. Our gathering place for this shamanic weekend will be Unity Village,
an exquisite spiritual retreat center on 1400 acres in Lee's
Summit near Kansas City,
Missouri.

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE!
presented by
Patricia Diane Cota-Robles
Red Lion Hotel, Boise Downtowner, 1800 Fairview Ave, Boise,
Idaho 83702-5123
This is a time of new beginnings. We have all been
going through a purging process that has pushed to the surface anything in our
lives that is not serving our highest good. This necessary cleansing process is
often confusing and sometimes even overwhelming, but we have no other option
than to walk through it. We are not being given the luxury of ignoring our
dysfunctional relationships and our negative situations any longer. If we try
to, more painful things surface to get our attention and to motivate us into
action. This awakening process is being orchestrated by our God Selves, which
is the Divinity within us that is always striving to move us forward in the
Light. If we want the insanity to stop, we must remember who we are and why we
are here. The good news is that we are
not being given anything that we cannot handle, and we have everything we need
within us to accomplish this facet of our awakening process quickly and
relatively easily. We have just forgotten how to do this. It is time for us to
realize that we are not our fragmented, fear-based human egos. We are Beloved
Sons and Daughters of God, and we are powerful beyond our knowing.
In this Free Seminar you will be reminded of the techniques that will allow you
to clear the surfacing negativity quickly. You will also remember how easy it
is to create the life you want.
This seminar is a gift from my heart to yours. Please do not let this
opportunity pass you by.

October 22-25th, 2010
 Amami Oshima Island, Japan
"Everyone has an inner knowing, a gift and an ability to do
things, especially if we open our hearts to God and work for Mother
Earth."
Grandmother Clara 2004
With devotion to the Creator in their hearts, the 13
Grandmothers are once again gathering from the four corners of the
world, in prayer for the Earth and harmony for all beings. For this 8th
Council Gathering, we are respectfully joining together in honor of
Grandmother Clara Shinobu Iura
and her people, Brazilian by birth and Japanese by ancestry.
Amami Oshima Island is the largest of the Amami islands in Japan. Sugar cane, bananas,
rice, sweet potato, guava and mangos are all cultivated on the island. Amami is famed for the creamy soft sand called
"star sand."
The Council Gathering will include sacred dancers and local
elders coming to greet the Grandmothers to open the Sacred Fire. As
they have done in previous councils, the Grandmothers gather together
to offer teachings, prayer, and wisdom from their peoples. Grandmother
Clara's great love and compassion is guiding this 8th Council to be a
time of healing and inspiration for all of us.
Location
Amami Island, Japan. The Grandmothers will convene
for Council at the Amami Island
Cultural Park which overlooks the ocean.
We will gather in prayer three times a day around the Sacred Fire at
the Cultural
Park entrance.
Schedule: October 22nd-25th
