Updates for week of June 11th - 17th
East West Bookstore – Sorry to all of you who came for the World Peace Meditation at the East West Books Store last week. Somehow the ball was dropped and the room was already booked. We found this out ourselves when we got there. Of course everyone was very apologetic at the bookstore and have bent over backwards to correct the situation. So now we will be doing the World Peace Meditation at East West Books Store on the first Tuesday of every month 5:30 – 6:30 PM starting July 3rd. Please note the change.
Center Committee Meeting There will be a Center Committee meeting this Wednesday at 6:30 PM. Everyone is invited and encouraged to participate. Come find out what is happening at the Center. We very much appreciate your feedback and help.
"Manifesting the Divine Life" Workshop in Reno: A special all day program has been scheduled in Reno for Saturday June 23rd by SCI. This will be a day-long workshop conducted by Siddhartha, Vidya and Devashish. Therefore the Center program scheduled for that day (Journey of Consciousness) will be canceled. If anyone would like to attend contact Siddhartha for more information. A separate notice will be going out this week.
