 Join IONS Circle members on a journey to the ancient land of India
at this time of global shift and transformation. This is a special

travel we will share in conversation, pondering the larger questions
of life and the universe, and open ourselves to the archetypes of
Hinduism and Budhism. Our Indian leader is Shantum Seth,
charismatic teacher and well known guide, who will bridge the
cultures and through his contacts has arranged for us to meet with
living masters and teachers along the way. We will be guests at
traditional ashrams, holy sites and extraordinary ancient temples,

Ancient land of History, Mystery, and Mystics

countries in the world, full of history, intrigue,
mysticism and mystery. The Ethiopians are a people of extraordinary grace, beauty, strength, resilience
and intelligence with spiritual traditions and a sense of cultural and personal dignity which have remained intact through the centuries. We explore the ancient sacred traditions of

society by centuries, and still hold to and
incorporates centuries old Jewish customs
and beliefs. (Many say that Ethiopia is the
site of the Garden of Eden). As a group,

self reliance for women. We will spend
time with the women as advocates and
listen to their stories as we share our own. Led by Worku Sharew and Carole Angermeir. Limited to 15 persons. Download a printable registration form. |
