Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

The rose in full bloom is a symbol of our perfected self.
The gradual unfolding of the petals symbolises
our progress in spiritual development in harmony and balance.
Our real self is revealed like a rose, a total realisation of the risen Christ within.

 

The tradition at our Centre on Easter Sunday
to give chocolate easter eggs - with no deep mystical significance.

  • A Life-Giving Mystery - Destiny Fulfilled: In the Light - Easter Sunday
    In your everyday life you meet all kinds of people. Some are sensitive, flexible, receptive. You are in the presence of a heart of flesh. Others argue, fight, harden themselves. You may be in the presence of a heart of stone. The longing to be free of a stony heart is strong. For many centuries it has been a pained longing.
    Two of Jesus' followers were walking together, discussing his arrest and crucifixion. In their grief their hearts were tight. A man walks with them. They share the breaking of bread and recognise him. They then remember what happened to their hearts as they walked with him on the road.
