Baltimore IONS Bookclub: The Holographic Universe

"Nearly everyone is familiar with holograms-three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Two of the world's most eminent thinkers believe that the universe itself may be a giant hologram, quite literally a kind of image or construct created, at least in part, by the human mind. University of London physicist David Bohm, a protégé of Einstein and one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, an architect of our modern understanding of the brain, have developed a remarkable new way of looking at the universe. Their theory explains not only many of the unsolved puzzles of physics but also such mysterious occurrences as telepathy, out-of-body and near-death experiences, 'lucid' dreams, and even religious and mystical experiences such as feelings of cosmic unity and miraculous healings."

Higher Consciousness through Meditation with Don Hoes

In this workshop, Don will introduce his book and discuss how we acquire Higher Consciousness through Meditation. We will learn the power of Forgiveness, Forgetfulness, Humility, Compassion, Being in the Now and Love as energies and energy frequencies. Also how the opposite frequencies like anger and procrastination are negative energy frequencies that can and are damaging to our bodies and to us as total human beings. Don will show how we can transform the negative frequencies by having greater understanding of our core Self and the veils or bodies that envelop our true nature beyond recognition. Finally with this theoretical information and a specific technique of meditation we will have a personal experience of the theory presented.

Don Hoes began practicing meditation on inner light at 14. Within two years he had a series of out of body experiences that raised more questions about inner light and sound, as well as life itself. After his first year of college, Don traveled to New Delhi, India where he met his spiritual guide, Sant Darshan Singh, who gave him a deeper connection and experience of the mysteries of inner light and sound. He was so transformed at the level of his heart and soul that he made the conscious decision to become a strict vegetarian. He became a member of the Speakers Bureau for the Science of Spirituality in 1995, and since has given general talks and workshops for SOS in Baltimore, Washington D.C., Western Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, Atlanta, Florida, New York, the Chicago area, Vancouver, Germany and India.
