Featuring a talk by Tom Hansen, Ph.D.
“Remembering Our Oneness: Who We Are, Where We Came From, And How We Got Here.”
Our April program will feature a talk by author, singer, songwriter, musician and metaphysical philosopher Tom Hansen, Ph.D., about his most recent book of the same title as his talk (2013, Balboa Press).
In his earlier book, Trying to Remember (1995), Tom Hansen explored this question and statement: “Are you a spiritual being having a physical experience or a physical being having an occasional spiritual experience? Which one you believe makes all the difference in the world.”
In Remembering Our Oneness, Tom explores how to live as the spiritual being that you are, even while experiencing this illusion of a physical universe of separation.
He also explores how to be in but not of this world, and how to co-create a world of love, peace and harmony that will help awaken us to our true multidimensional and divine nature.
Tom’s presentation also will focus on the convergence of spiritual and scientific interpretations of reality, and show the two are coming together in new and exciting ways which demonstrate our consciousness does not derive from physical matter, but rather is filtered and transceived from our infinite oneness consciousness, from the very ground of our being.
Tom has produced several CDs of his songs about spiritual, political, peace and environmental topics. He has performed at many conferences, festivals, workshops and meetings. His 2014 CD, “Book Concert,” consists of songs whose lyrics are all direct quotes from Remembering Our Oneness, and, if time permits, he may perform some of these songs for us as part of his presentation.
