What we’re about
This group is operated by the New York Satsang Society, Inc., A Chartered Affiliate of Eckankar. October 1, 2022
Hello! This is a group for anyone who would like to explore how divine guidance is a part of our daily lives. We’ll share spiritual experiences with like-minded others and fine-tune our ability to listen to the inner voice, the quiet whisper that helps us navigate challenges and recognize the beauty of each day. We’ll learn techniques to gain understanding, consider possible past lives and waking dreams, and chart a path of well-being, wisdom, spiritual freedom, and awareness.
Have you had a spiritual experience? Meet other people who have had experiences like you. Discuss out-of-body adventures, dreams, déjà vu, near-death experiences, seeing an inner light, hearing an inner sound, or having a sense that you have lived before.
You and a friend are welcome to attend any or all events. There is never a charge for attending a Meetup.
This Meetup is sponsored by the NY Satsang Society, a chartered affiliate of Eckankar, the Path of Spiritual Freedom. Eckankar is an ancient spiritual teaching and a modern-day religion that offers spiritual techniques and resources for individuals to discover truth for themselves. To learn more about Eckankar, please visit: http://www.eckankar.org
"The farther you go, the fewer maps are available to chart the path. There are fewer travelers. There are fewer players to tell you what to look for, what to watch out for. It is up to you to keep your eyes wide open and stay alert to the guidance of the ECK (Holy Spirit)." —Harold Klemp, ECK Wisdom on Inner Guidance, p. 34

Discover the Sound of HU to fill yourself with love and connect with Divine Spirit.
Can singing an ancient, sacred name for God with love reveal the very reason you were created? Can the highest of any love be yours to give and receive for all time? Come for an inspiring experience of personal chanting and contemplation with the uplifting sound of HU, an ancient mantra that opens the heart to the love of God and spiritual insights. Then join in an exploration of the spiritual topics that arise from this inner focus.
“So what is the reason for living?
“Life is God’s blessing to each Soul—you—to learn how to give and receive love. That’s what’s going on behind the scenes in this great laboratory of life.
“The secret of all time is that we are each to be a steward of divine love.
“Sing HU, and the blessings of love will find you.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 6
