All ways of spiritual seeking divide into two classes. The first is basic, elementary, the second for more advanced people. The first for beginners is the Long Path. It takes a long time to get results, and a lot of work has to be done on it; much effort is necessary for it. The second is the Short Path. The results are more quickly got; it is an easier path, and requires less work. To the Long Path belongs the methodical yoga. It takes a lot of work to practise daily: building of character and removing of weaknesses and overcoming of faults, developing concentration of attention to stop the distraction of mind and to get control over thoughts, strengthening of willpower, and all the activities for the beginners. These are the earlier stages of meditation.

And come together with conscious, aware people who care about what’s happening in
the world, our community and with our families. We’ll look at our biggest challenges and opportunities today:

• The state of our industrial world and the thinking that got us where we are today
• A new dream—new ideas about what really matters—leading to deep connection and surprising solutions

• How you can be part of what’s emerging—because you already are!
