FIL Gathering-Stephen Poplin - Taoism (2023) Fellowship of the Inner Light 2023-07-25 | The Taoist tradition flows back thousands of years, and it was expressed in the 6th Century BCE through the seminal philosophical work by Lao Tzu in his work the Tao te Ching. This short work is sublime and pithy. Yes, pithy and laconic. Poetic and terse. Sublime and concise. If some of these words have you searching for a dictionary, then that is part of the path. It's not an easy read, and each page could spawn new perceptions and notions. And that makes it a great work; it makes one think, reappraises the world around you. Modern Taoism has ventured off in many directions, like most of the religions of the world, so Stephen invites us to keep those popular (and superstitious) cultural traditions to the side … and let's step back in time to the original perspectives of Lao Tzu. Remember, the tao that can be expressed is not the eternal Tao.

Bruce Shelton - Blessed are the Merciful (2023) Fellowship of the Inner Light 2023-07-10 | The focus of Bruce's talk will be upon the teachings of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Specifically, we will take a look at Jesus's teachings on our tendencies to be judgmental of others. We judge others because in some way that individual has triggered a fear reaction in our minds. Judging others negatively has the effect of only reinforcing the fear energy in our own minds. Criticizing and attacking others for their perceived faults robs us of the one thing in life that really counts which is our own peace of mind.

FIL Gathering - John Christian - Know Thy Self: The Key to the Inner Mystery School (2023) Fellowship of the Inner Light 2023-06-22 | “To know but not to do, is not to know,’’ is an Eastern proverb. There is such a profound truth in this saying. We can have all the head knowledge in the world, but without practical life skills and training in programs, such as Inner Light Consciousness, to help us integrate intellectual knowledge into direct experience, we could be likened to, ‘’Dead men's bones'' (Mathew 23:27 New King James Version). In my presentation, I will be sharing some of my personal journey through what Paul Solomon taught so many of us in the Fellowship to recognize as the everyday Mystery School of Life. My journey has led me to train as a Yoga in India under the auspice of Guru Sivananda, in martial arts in Japan and the UK, with Oriental Masters, along with Master Tamo-san Founder of The Buddha’s Eye. Also, Studying with Sir George Trevelyan, Founder of The Wrekin Trust, and Paul Solomon, Founder of the Fellowship of the Inner Light. Aboriginal Elders, the Mamas of Columbia, Indigenous American Indian Shaman and the Masai Mara of Africa. All of whom, each in their own way, understood the journey of the soul and the path of Initiation. John Christian has distilled knowledge and experience, gained from a diverse career in entertainment, coaching and presenting into a formula for a happy and fulfilling life. John’s individual approach brings joy and humor to every platform and environment in which he works, whether in business management, life coaching, or his ongoing acting career. His positive communication and intuitive skills have been developed and honed through extensive travel, and his teaching incorporates the best of Western and Eastern philosophies. Fundamentally, he is committed to nurturing the mind, body and spirit.

Bruce Shelton - The Religions of the World (2023) Fellowship of the Inner Light 2023-06-12 | Bruce Shelton opens the Fellowship Family Gathering "The Trail of the Mystery Schools" -Each religion, culture, esoteric teaching that has lasted through the centuries has at its core teachings that reveal the mysteries of the creation of life. Those who learned these secrets were transformed by a direct subjective relationship with the Source of Life, the Pearl of Great Price. Such teachings were only revealed in the ancient Mystery Schools to those who demonstrated special abilities to learn and to serve mankind. The primary test that each student must pass to receive this training is revealed in the statement “I wish to know that I may serve.” We at the Fellowship of the Inner Light have the unique gift of being a part of an interfaith Fellowship. This means that there are individuals who have studied and practiced the teachings of many of the world’s great religions and cultures. In this year’s Fellowship Family Gathering, we will present teachings of these great religions and cultures in an attempt to touch the origin, the Source, the Creative Consciousness. The Fellowship Family Gathering is a gateway to the Pearl of Great Price as presented by men and women of God through the ages. It is meant for those who seek to know God better, personally, and with heart, and to serve with the knowledge. We have a great variety of speakers and teachings.

Susan Thomas - God is a Verb (2023) Fellowship of the Inner Light 2023-02-20 | Susan enjoyed reading the book, "God is a Verb", by Rabbi David A. Cooper. This book explores Jewish Mysticism. It addresses our yearning to reconnect with our essential nature that transcends the limits of the intellect. It comes from a place of inner knowing that there is far more to life than the material world. We know deeply within that the mysteries of creation speak in a language that can be absorbed only through "being" rather than by doing or thinking. This book provides insight into the foundations of Western Mysticism.Susan enjoys the ongoing search and "rescue" of our concepts about and experiences of God. Jesus revealed much to us to help show the way and to encourage us to end our identity crisis and realize and accept and express who we really are. This journey tends to be a long one and actually has no end because everything evolves. Let us explore ways to enjoy and enhance the journey for us all.
