IDEAL FOR: All levels including beginners
On the surface, religions appear separate, unique, and mutually exclusive. At their heart, they share a common truth and perennial wisdom:
• Each life is an expression of a nondual process called Ultimate Reality, God, Tao, Mother, Divine Feminine, Allah, YHVH, Dharmakaya, Brahman, Nature, Great Spirit, etc.
• All humans have an innate capacity to awaken as ultimate reality.
• Awakening as ultimate reality carries with it an ethic of interdependence calling us to cultivate compassion and justice toward all beings.
• Awakening to ultimate reality and living this ethic is humanity’s highest goal.
Join one of the most beloved and sought-after spiritual teachers of our age for an experiential
exploration of the shared truths at the heart of many religious traditions. Using a mixture of chanting, passage meditation, self–inquiry, lovingkindness practice, and contemplative study, Rabbi Rami will help us explore through five existential questions:
1. Who am I?
2. Where did I come from?
3. Where am I going (when I die)?
4. How shall I live?
5. And why?
Our goal is to cultivate a personal practice for awakening and ethical living that can be done within or without the context of a religion.

On April 24th, on behalf of CBI, I attended the United Way of Great Waterbury’s 37th Celebration and Awards. Picture this: a room buzzing with anticipation, pulsating with the spirit of achievement and unity. And let me tell you, folks, it was a night to remember, dedicated to honoring the incredible power of philanthropy and community partnership.
