Meditation and Mysticism: Experience God Inside Yourself - Class 6

15 Feb 2012 00:30:00 GMT

Center of Light New Haven
844 Grand Avenue
Tuesday, February 14, 2012, 7:30 – 9:30pm

This is a powerful introductory course designed for those who are seeking an inner experience of God through meditation. Classes include teachings on the practices of the mystics and how they can be applied in the modern western world. Mysticism refers to "the practice of knowing the reality of God through direct experience." It is certainly nothing new, as it has always been at the core of every religion and represents a more inner, experiential way of coming to know God and the spiritual world. We offer this series as an opportunity for you to discover whether the mystical path might be right for you.

The topic for this class is Soul. People talk about soul in many contexts, and somehow we know it means something deeply important for us as human beings, but who knows what a soul really is? What is our true relationship with this aspect of ourselves? You can come to know your soul and gain realization about the purpose of your soul's existence through meditation. Come to this class to begin to learn how.

Meet the Author Culver Modisette

16 Feb 2012 00:00:00 GMT

Enfield Public Library
104 Middle Road
Enfield, CT 06082
Wednesday, February 15, 2012, 7pm

Visit the Enfield Public Library on Wednesday, February 15th at 7:00 PM to meet Connecticut author, Culver Modisette, and discuss his book, Honored Enemy. Books will be on hand for sale and signing.
Culver Modisette enlisted in the Navy at age 17, hunting German U-boats until the war’s end, and then spent four glorious years at Dartmouth College. He worked for two decades as an advertising/PR executive until opening an outdoor sports business devoted to ecology sports, such as hiking and canoeing. Now retired, Modisette is the president of the Northern Connecticut Land Trust, as well as a respected lacrosse coach. He also tree farms and breeds Labradors in his spare time.
While working at his outdoor sports business, Modisette took various trips throughout Canada and the United States, and over the years, came to admire and sympathize with the Athabaskan Indian people living in the Arctic Circle area of rural Alaska. Modisette’s historical novel,
Honored Enemy, explores his interest in American Indian culture, focusing on the tribes of the Great Southwest during the 1800s. Through extensive research, Modisette captures the plight of the tribes from the loss of their mainstay food source (the buffalo) to the usurpation of their land, while weaving a compelling story that will engage both history buff and novice alike.
All programs at the Enfield Public Library are free and all are welcome. To register for this program, please visit our Circulation Desk or call 860-763-7512. For more information on upcoming library events, please visit our website: www.enfieldpubliclibrary.org.

It's a day in the lives of Jack, Norman, Lucien, Arnold and Barry. Who under the watchful eye of their sincere, but increasingly weary caregiver Jack, tackle the daily 'little things' in life with poignant and sometimes hilarious results.

An Off-Broadway success and 1996 television film featuring Nathan Lane, The Boys Next Door is a warm, touching and wonderfully funny look into the lives of four mentally disabled men sharing a communal residence in New England. It's a day in the lives of Jack, Norman, Lucien, Arnold and Barry. Who under the watchful eye of their sincere, but increasingly weary caregiver Jack, tackle the daily 'little things' in life with poignant and sometimes hilarious results. This tenderly written play is a heartwarming reminder that all of us, regardless of our abilities, want only to love, laugh and find meaning and purpose in our lives.
