Yes, definitely that is my plan. We will listen to a chapter of the Power of Now (audio version of the book) and then discuss; followed by an activity of some sort to help people take that step of actually being.

Hi Summer, It would be wonderful to have a 'guru' like Sri Yukteswar. I've had two people in my life who have helped me spiritually; One is a good friend of mine who may not be a sage but is certainly more experienced than me.
