July 28: “Embracing each one of our journeys”

Posted on by

Presenter: Don Morishita

Throughout our lives most of us take many journeys, including our own spiritual journey. For some, the spiritual journey may be very straightforward, but for many, the spiritual journey may be like a road with many curves, crossroads and dead ends.

Our spiritual journeys may lead to mainstream Christian, Muslim, or Jewish faiths. For others it leads to other religions and yet for others, it is without the presence or desire of a higher power in their lives. Whatever direction each of us takes, it is important to embrace each of our journeys that take us on our own spiritual path.

Unitarian-Universalism honors the differing paths we each travel. Our congregations are places where we celebrate, support, and challenge one another as we continue on our spiritual journeys. As Unitarian-Universalists, we covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person; justice, equality and compassion in human relations; and acceptance of one another.

Newcomers of all religious paths or none at all are always welcome. We are working on becoming handicapped-accessible but are not fully there yet. To avoid steps into the sanctuary please enter through the rear entrance to access a sloping hallway to the sanctuary. Please park in the rear of the building or on the street, in front or the side of the building. Child care is available during the adult portion of the service.

Presenter: Robyn Romney

So much has been written in past years that has exacerbated the rift between science and religion.

However, recently, there has been a refreshing parallel shift in the opposite direction. Buddhist contemplative practices are particularly amenable to this collaboration, inviting neurobiological explanations for the Buddhist philosophy.

Borrowing tools from the book, Buddha’s Brain, we’ll share ways to stimulate and strengthen our personal emotions and relationships toward a more fulfilling spiritual life.

This is your brain on dharma [the doctrine or the teaching of the Buddha].

Everyone who accepts spirituality in their lives have experienced interesting paths worthy of sharing with others.thinkdifferent

The third principle of Unitarian Universalism is acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations.

Our fourth principle is a free and responsible search for truth and meaning.

One important aspect of our spiritual growth as a congregation is that our spiritual paths include a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. Sharing our spiritual paths provides insight of what each of us experiences as we find truth and meaning in all aspects of our lives. Join us to hear the stories of some members of our Fellowship as they share their spiritual paths that have led them to this point in their lives.
