Since one way to illuminate the darkness is to make light of it, we’ll begin the evening with some political stand-up comedy on the unbelievable circus of this election cycle.
A group of us have been working bi-weekly for seven years with subtle activism and the Incarnational Spirituality of David Spangler, co-director of the Findhorn Community. The main intent of this evening’s presentation is to introduce techniques of ‘subtle activism’ so that participants, whatever their political persuasion, can be empowered with tools that can offer something positive to help counter-balance our current congressional ‘greed-lock’.
Subtle political activism helps to facilitate the connection between a candidate and their soul’s intent; it can aid in aligning the individual with the inspiration and help of higher spiritual forces, be they human guides or angelic. The prime directive of subtle-activism is that nothing is imposed. The sovereignty of the individual is approached with utmost respect and honored.
We approach this work as a servant of the highest good, in collaboration with the indwelling sacredness of the human recipient. This entails knowing ourselves as embodied sacredness in alignment with the sacredness of the world. The task before us is to engage this time of change with love and courage, and with fiery hope in the sacred possibilities that slumber within us in order that out of the many factions of humanity a collaborative spirit of unity may gradually emerge.
