Meditation on Inner Light and Inner Sound 

Earth Awakening Centre, 9 Browning Street (12 August 2012 @ 7:30pm)
 

 

Although the longing for love, knowledge and happiness in human beings is natural, in this world it is almost impossible to find. Faced with problems of everyday life, we may wonder: "What is the meaning of my life? Who am I? Where did I come from? How can I find peace and contentment?"

 
The aim of meditation on Inner Light and Inner Sound is to know ourselves as soul and unite with our higher self, the Supreme Being. Meditation helps us to live in harmony with others, to respect all living beings, and to fully develop as a human being. It is the source of love, contentment and peace.
