Tue - April 6, 13, 20, 27 - May 4, 11, 18, 25
We got snowed out last week and hopefully will not this coming Tuesday.
Since we last met much has happened. 9 more people for a total of 21
have indicated
GREAT interest in joining our newly developing group. It seems that
Daskalos
is becoming better known in the USA although his teachings are VERY
well-known in Europe.
I have heard that he has over 700 "lessons" in Greek that are being
translated into
English, and about 500 more--I think--already translated but not yet
published!
Two main texts: The Esoteric Teachings: A Christian Approach
(theory)
The Esoteric Practice: Christian Meditations
and Exercises (practice)
And probably his most beloved book: Joshua Immanuel The Christ:
His Life on Earth and His Teachings.
Of course, for many people, the triology by Kyriacos Markides is a good
introduction:
The Magus of Strovolos: The Extraordinary World of a Spitiual Healer
Homage to the Sun: The Wisdom of the Magus of Strovolos
Fire in the Heart: Healers, Sages, and Mystics
These can be found on
www.alibris.com (inexpensive used books), although
his second and third books are demanding a lot of money!
PRACTICAL NOTE FOR CIRCLE PARTICIPANTS: Please check your emails BEFORE
coming
to class if you believe there may be a problem: snow, storms, ice, etc.
If we do not send
out a cancellation notice, the meeting is on. Come if you can.
Some Major Questions
1. Do you want to become a master of your thoughts,
emotions, desires, and actions?
2. Do you want to learn HOW to become such a master?
(whether in this life or in future reincarnations?)
3. Are you willing to STUDY and do PRACTICES to
predispose yourself to attain such a state?
4. Would you like to join a Circle with others with
the same intentions?
5. Can you commit to a weekly Circle gathering for
group support?
6. Do you have a strong desire to learn how to heal
yourself and others, and to dissolve karmic debts?
Well, I sure do. For this reason I am embarking on a
new endeavor.
My goal: personal God-realization ("reawaken as a
god; "theosized," aka liberation) as much as possible in this lifetime,
and facilitate a training system for others to becomer masters of
thoughts, emotions, desires, actions and healing. For those interested, we
will establish a Circle for Researchers of Truth based upon
the esoteric teachings of Dr. Stylianos Atteshlis, aka Daskalos,
which is a blend of Christian Mysticism and Eastern Spiritualities along
with access to the Akashic records (universal
memory), as presented in the Markides trilology--The
Magus of Strovolos, Homage to The Sun, and Fire in
the Heart--and in Daskalo's own writings, tapes,
lectures, etc. See for example:
