Spirituality in Everyday Life


"Spirituality is not a belief system.  It is a way of life.  Reading a holy book, going to a sacred place or practicing a particular ritual can all be very helpful, but ultimately spirituality has to be in the every moment of life, and in every action.  When we do gardening, or baking bread, or send an email to a friend or a colleague we do it as a meditation, as a service, as an expression of our love.  Then, that ordinary activity is transformed into a spiritual action.  When we are our most creative selves, when we are in the sphere of imagination and when we are grounded in joy then we are unselfconsciously practicing spirituality."  -- SATISH KUMAR-- A Presentation Abstract for the Great Rethinking Conference


"We are at the turning point.  We cannot go on being greedy, destroying the resources of the Earth.  The environmental concerns, ecological concerns, our relationship with the Earth is going to become a strong catalyst for the transformation of our consciousness." -- SATISH KUMAR


As a society, we are becoming more conscious/awakened to the oneness of all beings.  Today
we can say that through the human, earth is becoming conscious of herself.  This is a time of great
transformation
, and often a time of concern about what is happening in our lives.  For this purpose,

Great Plains Earth Institute
offers Spiritual Direction for anyone wishing to journey with another
as they walk through this time of change.  It is an opportunity to share with another person about
spiritual experiences, attitudes, happenings, changes, a time to be open and vulnerable concerning
our relationship with God.


Spiritual Direction sessions usually last one hour and can be scheduled

anytime from Monday through Thursday.

Please call Rita at
316.942.2201 x1499 for an appointment.
