All sorts of things begin to occur that never otherwise would have occurred. One meets with a success unexpected in common hours. New, more universal, more liberal laws begin to establish themselves around that one. The old laws are rearranged in one’s favor. Nevertheless one begins to live the license of a higher order of being. —Henry David Thoreau 20 Unity Business Directory PROFESSIONAL SERVICES Ambit Energy Ambit customers save money and earn free energy from referrals (847) 682-5665 www.jb17.energy526.com [email protected] Bruce Lorie Voiceover Artist (773) 339.8686 [email protected] www.brucelorie.com see ad Chicago Dog Nose Nose Work Classes - Fun For Dogs (312) 617-8000 [email protected] see ad COUNTRY® Financial CNWI Helping people make good decisions Nose Work Classess - Fun For Dogs regarding their insurance and investments.

  • Camphill Correspondence March/April 2005
    March/April 2005 CAMPHILL CORRESPONDENCE e Balinese have an essential concept of Wbalance. It’s the Tri Hita Karan, the con- cept of triple harmonious balance. The balance between God and humanity; humanity with itself; and humanity with the environment. This places us all in a universe of common understanding. It is not only nuclear bombs that have fallout. It is our job to minimize this fallout for our people and our guests from around the world. Who did this? This is not such an important question for us to discuss. Why this happened —maybe this is more worthy of thought. What can we do to create beauty from this tragedy and come to an understanding where nobody feels the need to make such a statement again? This is important. That is the basis from which we can embrace everyone as a brother, every- one as a sister. It’s a period of uncertainty, a period of change. It is also an opportunity for us to move together into a better future—a future where we embrace Mt. LeFroy, Lawren Harris all of humanity, in the knowledge that we all look and smell the same when we are burnt. Victims of this tragedy are from all over the world. The past is not signifi cant. It is the future that is important. This is the time to bring our values, our empathy, to society and the world at large. To care; to love. We want to return to our lives. Please help us realize this wish. Why seek retribution from people who are acting as they see fi t? These people are misguided from our point of view.

Creative workers like actors, producers, and writers come to L.A. to pursue dreams of stardom, especially in the Hollywood film and television media industries. For most, a “big break” into their chosen field remains perpetually out of reach despite their constant efforts. Expensive workshops like acting classes, networking events, and chance encounters are seen as keys to Hollywood success. Within this world, rumors swirl of big breaks for devotees in the city’s spiritual and religious organizations. For others, it is in consultations with local spiritual advisors like professional psychics that they navigate everyday decisions of how to achieve success in Hollywood.
