How to Access Your Inner Joy
If most people were to look beneath the surface of their lives they would find a feeling of dissatisfaction, a feeling that "there must be more to life than this." In mainstream society a person might try to fill that void with fame, power or possessions. In new age society a person might try to fill that void with vitamins, a mind machine, or going to countless seminars. There is nothing intrinsically wrong with any of these pursuits, however they will not satisfy the hidden yearnings of the heart. Only one thing will – loving union with God.
Intimacy with the Divine
Now for many people the word God conjures up the image of an old man in the sky who watches everything you do very carefully and doesn't approve of most of it. This is not what I am talking about. I am talking about the very deepest part of yourself which is pure love, the deepest part of yourself which already knows what you need and can answer your most profound questions. I believe in a personal God. However, you might prefer to use other words such as Source, Cosmic Mind, or your Buddha nature.
The God Within
We are always looking for the answer outside of ourselves. But the truth is that it lies within. In the Gospel According to Luke the Pharisees ask Jesus when the Kingdom of God is coming. He answers them (17:20-21), "The Kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; nor will they say, 'Lo, here it is!' or 'There!' for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you." In the Dhammapada (a collection of the oral teachings of the Buddha) the Buddha says (18:255) "The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart."
The Legacy of the Masters
You were born to have the mind and heart of Jesus. You were born to have the mind and heart of the Buddha. The only question is how do you access that birthright. One thing is certain: no amount of mental understanding will do it. It is one thing to understand the concept that "God is Love"; it is another thing entirely to actually experience the nectar of God's love flowing in your veins, moment to moment, everyday of your life.
The Power of Shakti
The way to self-realization is through the many spiritual practices which have been developed by the world's spiritual traditions. These many practices can be summarized in two categories: meditation and energy work. The teachings of the Spiritual Unfoldment Network emphasize energy work because through our energy initiations we can accelerate the spiritual evolution of many people in a short period of time. By "energy work" we refer specifically to working with "shaktis". For more about shaktis see the article entitled "Is There A More Effective Way To Be On Your Path?". What we wish to emphasize is that shaktis are gifts of grace from God. These energies are God in action.
Moving Along Your Path
The great spiritual teachers have taught us that the true source of joy lies not outside of ourselves but in the treasure chest of our own heart. The many beautiful shaktis which God has bestowed upon the world's spiritual traditions are keys to unlocking that chest. The Spiritual Unfoldment Network can help you find the keys which best fit your own treasure chest. You are invited to explore our work further. You can do this by coming to a S.U.N. Teacher's introductory lecture, by tuning in to our free Sunday transmissions in the privacy of your own home, or by taking any of the classes.

Is There A More Effective Way to Be on Your Path?
If you're like most people who read our newsletter, you have a sincere interest in personal or spiritual growth and you're open to the possibility of techniques that will assist you to progress faster. This article describes methods which have been used successfully in esoteric traditions for thousands of years, yet are only now starting to become known in our own culture. I have seen these methods create changes not achievable by any other method – changes in my own life and lives of thousands who have taken our workshops.
Utilizing energy is the key to physical vitality and spiritual evolution.
We are surrounded by and are an intimate part of an infinite ocean of energy. This non-physical energy permeates all things, and all living things depend on it for their continued life and health. It is called Prana by the Hindus, Chi by the Chinese, Mana by the Hawaiians. Esoteric traditions of all ages have recognized that a master key to physical vitality and (through raising our vibrational rate) spiritual evolution is the ability to absorb and use this energy.
There are four key ideas about working with these cosmic energies.
(1.) Science defines energy as "the ability to do work" (I would rephrase this as "the ability to produce transformation") and as such, energy has the capacity to produce profound change on any level of our being – physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Our students consistently report dramatic shifts in physical vitality, emotional well-being and relationships, mental clarity, their spiritual life and meditations. Often they start to notice changes after just coming to a demonstration or even just tuning in at home to our weekly transmission.
(2.) Unlike purely physical energies, the energies we are talking about behave intelligently. Some say they are God's gifts to us and are the carriers of divine intelligence; others prefer to say they are linked to cosmic mind. To give one of many implications of this fact, you can use these energies to do chakra work or energy balancing that goes far beyond more commonly known methods. Just as a high speed computer can do thousands of additions per second, these energies can do many times what we can, when we rely only on our own intelligence.
(3.) There are many cosmic energies, not just one. Different spiritual traditions work with very different kinds of energies. For example a representative Buddhist energy and a representative Hindu energy are quite different – have different colors, textures, do different things, etc.. Just as people respond very differently to different physical energies (e.g. that in music or food), they respond differently to the energies of different traditions. This is why the S.U.N. works with energies from different cultures and why it is good to experiment to find the one that is best for you.
(4.) Through a profound initiation involving a permanent empowerment of your energy field, you can acquire the ability to access energies that would otherwise take decades of meditation. Historically these kinds of initiations were done only by gurus. Now there are organizations, like S.U.N., doing this. All of our workshops are initiation workshops in which you receive powerful energies. You can access them at any time for yourself or others through mentally directing the flow (no visualization, mantras, etc.) thereby avoiding dependence on others.
Because the energies S.U.N. works with were specifically chosen to be the most effective from hundreds of initiations I have received, you will find them to be unlike any others available to the public. We believe we are setting the standard for subtle energy work. Tune in at home to our weekly transmission and experience them for yourself!

Intelligent EnergyTM - The Basis of S.U.N Workshops
One of the unique and beneficial (and amazing) properties of the energies used by the S.U.N. Network is that they are "intelligent". Many believe they are much more intelligent than the human mind or the most sophisticated computers. And, with the training provided by the S.U.N. classes, an individual is empowered to access these energies and direct them with mere "intention".
Intelligent energy:
- Can be programmed to optimize its effectiveness.
- Becomes more effective and powerful with usage.
- Can be calibrated to operate at variable intensities.
- Teaches itself to be more effective.
- Works with the individual to create more inspired ways to be used.
- Helps connect the individual to other energies and guides.
- Is available in an infinite number of varieties.
- Can be used to help others or can be transmitted to them at a distance for their benefit.
- Can be effective when used by intention or can be put on "automatic pilot".
- Can be utilized while awake or while sleeping.
- Works together with, and even enhances other practices.
- Is provided by the grace of God, and works independently of any religion or belief system.
It is impossible to convey in words how extraordinary this energy really is. For a direct experience of "intelligent energy", try our free energies.
