Universal Spirit Center, a Global Heart Community
We are a Science of Mind spiritual community exploring the wisdom in all spiritual traditions to enhance our own spiritual evolution and that of the planet. By embracing the diversity in all of life, we recognize the divine presence in all beings. We seek to remember that we, along with all creatures, are expressions of Spirit and that love is always the deepest truth between us.
Come join us in reaching our fullest potential through the realizations of these truths!
What is Universal Spirit?
Universal Spirit is the Presence our ancestors felt as they worshiped the Sun and Moon. It is the tenderness of the Goddess and the sound of the Great Spirit the Native Americans heard in the winds. It is the enlightenment Buddha discovered in his own being and the fertility of the earth honored by the pagans. It is the energy of the Tao or the glories streaming through Lord Krishna. Universal Spirit is the presence of Christ, it is Yahweh who called forth Abraham and led Moses, and Allah calling Mohammed. It is the beauty and the power of the Universe. It is the void and totality of all. Universal Spirit is the experience of love and awakening and empowerment.
Universal Spirit claims no culture or messiah or religion as its own but expresses as all religions and sages claiming compassion and peace. Finding its most profound expression within the center of each being, Universal Spirit evolves as we awaken to It.
This Universal Spirit moves us into the global community, calling us to love and serve all.
Our center is the place where we journey from an individual experience of Spirit to the evolution of Universal Spirit as it expresses and expands and awakens in the presence of community. The center of our community is Universal Spirit.
We are Universal Spirit Center, a Global Heart Community.

Oneness Blessing
The Oneness Blessings, or Oneness Deeksha as it is also called, is a phenomenon of Grace that creates an opening through which you can experience your true heart's desire directly and fully.
Experienced practitioners give the Oneness Blessing-a transmission of divine energy-by placing their hands on a recipient's head for a few minutes. The effects are cumulative, and can accelerate the awakening of ones consciousness and the flowering of the heart. This is an entirely new paradigm. There is no guru, no teaching, and no practice.
Please join us for this experience of Grace as we meditate together and receive multiple Blessings.
