Spiritual Awareness Fellowship presents
Joy in Your True Nature through Mindful Authentic Movement
presented by Molly A. Valerio, DTR, LCSW, BCD
Friday,April 1, 2005, 7:00 PM
Molly, a teacher of Mindful Authentic Movement, works in dance-movement therapy and clinical social work. Her practice has evolved into the designing of classes that assist the participant in achieving more inner peace and joy. Through music, movement, breathing techniques, and mantra, individuals are able to renew a sense of Oneness with their own divinity and the divinity of those around them. They become aware that their essence is Divine Love.
Mindful Authentic Movement begins when one places the attention within the stillness of being in a safe environment. As one allows physical movement to occur within that stillness, there is a natural flow that causes the balancing of energy in body and mind. This balancing is the key to the powerful opening of the heart center allowing one to experience a sense of freedom, wholeness, and infinite fun! MAM is an inner alchemy. It is nothing less than magical!
“You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.” ~Eckhart Tolle

THE COMING OF TAN: from a sharecropper kid to a mothership near Saturn for a downloaded education alien style.
with author Riley Martin
Friday, April 8th 6:00 – 9:00pm. Book signing and Lecture
Born 1946 into a family of sharecroppers where adults can not read or write. In 1953 two aliens took little Riley on his first trip to their mothership near Saturn. Riley's second trip was when he was 18. It was on this trip that they placed a strange looking headset on him... then in a matter of seconds... download into his brain... the history of humanity, alien insights, and a whole lot more plus beautiful symbols by the thousands.
Now there seems to be no limit to what Riley can talk about.
O-Qua Tangin Wann... is the name of Riley's alien friend. When Riley was just a kid he called him Tan. In 1980 Tan released a block they had on Riley's memory. A few years later Riley wrote it down. It was a 593 page manuscript... (from a sharecropper kid)? Riley called it The Coming of Tan
Riley went from a sharecropper kid to brilliant. How could that be? I heard his sister say... we thought they were all stories.
This story starts one night when Riley was seven years old... he saw a strange light out by the river, he tried to wake up his brothers and not one of them would wake from their sleep. The next night the lights were brighter and little Riley was more excited and this time he tried to wake up everyone in the house including his parents. Then on the third night when the lights appeared again he didn't attempt to wake his family... he took his trusted dog Brownboy and they went to the river to investagate.

The Six Mysteries of Love
Presented by Mervyn Brady
Tuesday, April 19, 7:00—9:00pm
Reserved Seating $10.00 $15.00 on the night of the event Reservations: 773-250-7113
Finding Love and Consciousness has been the goal of countless men and women, groups and institutions throughout the ages. Few things have been so important to us. The fact is that we all search for these things, perhaps not knowing what it is we wish to find. Through his studies, Mervyn Brady, founder of The Academy of European Arts & Culture, has found that Love and Consciousness are in essence the same.
Both are gifts from a Higher World. As we are given moments of Consciousness, we are given moments of Love. The problem lies in that we don't know how to keep and nourish these moments. If we could understand the nature of these these moments Love and Consciousness would not be so elusive.
Love has its own laws and rhythms, beyond the illusions, generated by publicity and media. This lecture attempts to explain the Mysteries of Love, and more importantly to show the possibility of using Love for its highest end: to touch the Divine in us and the others.
"Awakening and Consciousness are not things to be achieved. They are gifts. And first, we must learn to receive." -Mervyn Brady
Mr. Mervyn Brady, founder of The Academy of European Arts and Culture, is an international teacher and lecturer on philosophy and spiritual studies. He has spent the past 30 years researching Western art, philosophy and mysticism. The Academy is a school based on the awakening and nourishment of the Soul
This event is sponsored by the Academy of European Arts and Culture. The Academy is a non-profit international school that focuses on the study of Western art, philosophy & mysticism.
