The proximity of happiness is as close as one's own Self; it isn't even a matter of attaining, but only of lifting the soul-shrouding veil of ignorance. The very word "attaining" implies something one wants but does not have—a metaphysical error. –Paramahansa Yogananda
As much as we all desire lasting happiness, it’s a mystery why we tend not to consider how to attain it. It begins with realizing it is possible. That’s followed by the willingness to chart our course into the vast divine vistas of possibility that will open to us. Lasting happiness requires a scientific mind, a devotional heart, and a fearless attitude. Discover how choosing happiness is a necessary path for revealing wholeness.

This workshop is an opportunity to explore your dharmic life - its ultimate purpose and profound potential. Find encouragement to answer the innate call to bring forth what is with you.
What is your dharma? What is yours to do in this life? What have come to offer? How is that contribution tied to your happiness and well-being and the well-being of others?
Dharma is the spiritual foundation or profound order that exists in all creation. Learning what this spiritual foundation is for our lives, and how to cooperate with it, is the secret to our greatest happiness and true success.
This workshop will introduce the Four Universal Life Goals drawn from the ancient Vedas:
• how to live with purpose,
• prosper,
• enjoy life, and
• realize ultimate freedom.
Explore your own soul purpose to discover how dharma, or living with higher purpose, can inspire and guide your next steps. Workshop will include inspiration, meditation, and spiritual practices for centering and contemplation. Bring a notebook and pen.
