Deeksha for Oneness
with Nancy Strachan
Thursday, March 13, at 7 pm

The Oneness Blessing, also known as Oneness Deeksha, is an intelligent energy directly transmitted by a Oneness Facilitator to a receiver. This experience opens the heart and brings a shift in perception where one realizes the sense of a separate self is an illusion. The Oneness Blessing is not a mere concept. It is an experience of Oneness with all creation and with God. Along with a de-cluttering of the mind, Oneness Blessing helps to re-pattern negative life programming; release traumas that have been stored at the cellular and energetic levels; and facilitate deep emotional and physical healing. As the sense of separation leaves, one feels a deeper connection with all that is.
