About us
Are you a spiritual adventurer?
Meet with people of all different backgrounds who share a passion for spirituality—who seek to have actual spiritual experiences, such as significant dreams, out-of-body travel, past-life recall, and encounters with spiritual beings—and to grow from these experiences to bring more meaning, purpose, and joy to daily life. Come share your spiritual experiences—or your desire to have them—in an open, friendly spiritual community.
Our group is sponsored by Eckankar, the Path of Spiritual Freedom. This ancient spiritual teaching offers spiritual techniques and resources for an individual to discover truth for themselves through personal experience. People of all faiths and backgrounds are welcome. Have you had out-of-body adventures, past life recall, or have you seen inner lights or heard inner sounds? Join us to gain new insights into your experiences and understand their spiritual significance.
We offer online and in-person workshops, spiritual discussions, book discussions, group chants and more. Learn creative techniques to further explore our inner worlds and to thrive spiritually.

HU is Your Key to Living in the Higher Awareness of Soul
·OnlineOnline21 attendees from 8 groupsThe uplifting Sound of HU allows us to harmonize with Divine energy.
Experience the transformative power of singing the sacred HU and connecting with the Divine Sound Current, the Voice of God. Join in a 12-minute HU chant followed by a brief contemplation. You are then invited to share your spiritual experiences, express your ideas, and ask your questions in an interactive, facilitator-led spiritual discussion.
“As life goes on around us, the detached state is that which runs right through the center; we are the balanced individual working in the Soul consciousness.
“Singing HU can help you align with this natural, holy rhythm of life.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 32
As we grow in awareness and attunement with the resonance of the HU, Soul unfolds as a fuller expression of Divine Love. Singing HU can bring healing for the body, mind, and spirit. It enables us to open our hearts to experience the miracles that occur when we give and receive love.

Move Towards Love and Away From Fear

Love is more than an emotion—it is a spiritual force that can transform our lives. Join us as we explore how giving and receiving divine love can dispel fear, bring greater peace, and support spiritual growth through practical techniques, shared experiences, and meaningful discussion.
“The law of love will bring to you the necessary materials for your spiritual growth and maturity.
“Therefore, if you require love, try to realize that the only way to get love is by giving it, that the more you give the more you get, and the only way in which you can give it is to fill yourself with it until you become a magnet of love.”
—Harold Klemp, The Spiritual Laws of ECK, p. 97
