December Theme: The Other Jesus

Worshipped as the Son of God, followed as a model and teacher for our

human existence, revered as a great healer and miracle worker, Jesus of

Nazareth has inspired the spiritual outlook of millions of people

worldwide. Yet, his followers have differed widely in their

interpretation of his words and example. For instance:

· Regarded as the Prince of Peace, Jesus admonished his

followers to " love your enemies…do good unto those that hurt

you…resist not evil but counter evil with good. " Yet, through

the centuries, much blood has been shed in his name.

· He led a life of simplicity and service as an itinerant

teacher of spiritual truth, seeking neither wealth nor external power,

and stating, " The Kingdom of God is within you. " Yet enormous

power structures and hierarchies have been established in his name.

This month's spiritual exploration will focus on lesser-known,

compelling perspectives on Jesus and his mission.

Topics:

• 12/1: The Solar Myth – the universal story of the God-man in

various ancient spiritual traditions

• 12/8: The Esoteric Jesus – perspectives from Theosophy,

Edgar Cayce, the Aquarian Gospel, A Course in Miracles and more

• 12/15: The Gnostic Jesus – early Christian perspectives,

including The Gospel of Thomas

• 12/22: The Mystic Christ – personal accounts of mystical

visions and prophesies from Rudolf Steiner, Meister Eckhart, Deepak

Chopra and others

Exploring Spirit is a weekly gathering open to all. Each month has a

theme; each week, a topic addressing that theme. The gathering consists

of an introduction of the weekly topic with open discussion, followed by

cleansing passes administered by the healing staff. Refreshments are

served after the gathering.
