A few months ago I encountered the following book on the web:
Not Guilty  - Undoing the Illusion of Separate Existence  and it literary transformed my life.  I  went to see the author in Wisconsin and she agreed to give a workshop at Ithaca College on Saturday June 12, 2010.  I prepared a Registration form for the workshop.

The essence of the workshop is to help us let go of the illusion of separate existence that most of us believe in.   Sounds funny?  It is true.  We are all one but most of us do not know it.

The workshop will run from 9:00 till 5:00 in Williams 302 and will be free.  It is recommended that you look at the book before.
