One day, you may realize that you have become the alchemist of your own being
\nand that the gold of your being is present.
\nThat is not gold like we think of gold metal here. It is much rarer.
\nYou can eat of it and drink of it, and it will sustain you through anything.
\nIt is the gold of that spiritual form that you are.<\/em>
\n– John-Roger, DSS<\/p>\n

We are starting off 2025 with two wonderful new programs. Spiritual Alchemy: Transformation, Transmutation, Transcendence<\/a>, is a profound journey of inner transformation. At its core, spiritual alchemy is about transforming the \u201cbase metals\u201d of our thoughts, emotions, and perceptions into the \u201cgold\u201d of higher consciousness. Facilitated by Paul Kaye and Jeffrey Morgan, this nine-week online course meets on Mondays starting on January 13, at 5:00 PM (PT).<\/p>\n

The other program, Master of Spiritual Science \u2013 The Harmonic Self (MSS-HS)<\/a> began on January 4, and the class is still open for enrolment until the end of January. The course is an opportunity to attune ourselves to the frequencies of love and harmony. As we align with this vibrational reality, we find ourselves more connected, empathetic, and creative, resonating with the symphony of All That Is. The Harmonic Self is one who is multidimensionally resonant, and whose being is an instrument of Spirit through which the Wind from Heaven plays its Song of Love. The first of year of the Harmonic Self Masters Course is a ten-month program, with two more years following. The class is recorded and can be taken as a certificate program (no homework!) or for a master\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n

The work we have been doing to improve the speed and user friendliness of the MSIA web site student dashboard and MSIA app for iPhone and Android will continue this year. We are aware that some web users of That Which Is<\/a> have been experiencing some intermittent issues. We have made this a high priority for our developers to address. Luckily, this problem is not present when accessing That Which Is on the MSIA app. We are constantly reviewing and improving the MSIA app and web site. We always welcome your input on we can make them even better.<\/p>\n

Prana has a new chef, Daneen Green, who has been preparing wonderful meals for student guests, staff, and residents at the Home of the Traveler. Daneen will be helping to inform us on conscious eating. She has a keen focus on food that supports the gut microbiome — the trillions of microscopic organisms living in our gut that play a crucial role in digesting food, influencing our dietary habits, and overall health. We look forward to including healthy, conscious food education into our programs. [Side note: Daneen will be presenting a segment on healthy eating at the Harmonic Self Master\u2019s entitled: Food Resonance and the Microbiome].<\/p>\n

We would like to wish a big Happy Birthday to our MSIA Light ambassador, Leigh Taylor-Young Morton this month. She is very excited to be celebrating this auspicious occasion with a birthday bash fundraiser at Windermere<\/a> on Saturday, January 25 that will support animal care at the ranch. The event will also be online.<\/p>\n

Thank you for all that you give in so many ways. As J-R would constantly remind us, \u201cIt is the loving that makes all this work.\u201d We love and appreciate you.<\/p>\n

God bless you,
\nPaul, Vincent, Mark, Sherie, David, and Jeffrey<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
