Everyone is welcome to this experiential contemplative course! No prerequisite. Each session has ample time for questions, discussions and sharing personal reflections, all in an informal satsang atmosphere. All sessions are recorded and available to participants for 3 months in case you missed a session. The rich contemplations and discussions have provided profoundly deep teachings for all who have been participating in these courses. In this new series we will dive into new unpublished gifts from the Devi! In the past we’ve contemplated the gifts in the previous published collection – Kali’s Bazaar, O My Beloved, and Gently Falls Her Rain Of Light. Each poem from these collections invokes different facets of the Divine, along with teachings, practices, and inspirations for living our highest nature into everyday life. They empower us to see past the mind and live from the truth of who we are for the benefit of all. This new collection has its source in the same Beloved, who created all the writings in the previous collections. It will be titled: Invite them in, She said.
I hope you will join us for the continued unveiling of Her sublime gifts!
“I have taken many courses with Lawrence. After each course, I find myself being less and less solely identified with mind, feelings and body. I see life more and more as a play, nothing is so serious. It feels like nothing is really happening. There is more freedom, more joy. My beliefs are constantly challenged and transformed. The recognition of my true Self is less and less clouded. I find myself more and more living from that recognition.
Being with Lawrence during these courses has been such a transforming experience. The transmission is so strong. What a delight and joy to be in his presence. I feel so fortunate. I am so grateful.”

“Joining this course is an invitation to embark on a spiritual journey where words become prayers, and understanding becomes a form of devotion. With each poem shared, Lawrence invites us to experience the Divine in her many forms. These poems are not just words, but conduits of divine energy – a manifestation of Shakti herself. In the three courses I’ve taken, each has become a sacred space for participants to explore and share the profound messages embedded in each verse.”

“I’ve enjoyed all of the courses I have taken with Lawrence! These deep dives into the divine’s living presence are a joyful, refreshing part of my weekend. I love the uplifting poetry, the sublime teachings, and the chance to share in the thoughts and experiences of other seekers. Lawrence facilitates and teaches with love and grace, and I always leave class with a more open heart. I wish everyone could experience this kind of sacred sharing!”
E.M., CT
“A wellspring of grace – to sit at a true teacher’s feet. I feel so fortunate to have taken every course that Lawrence has offered on Zoom. Words cannot express the experience that each session brings. The writings are rich with symbolism, which are fun to unpack, wisdom & guidance for the longing soul’s journey, and last, but not least, a peek into an intimate relationship with the Divine and her beloved. I look forward to the next gathering with my fellow travelers.”
P.W., NY

“No matter where you are on your spiritual journey this course will impact you. I’ve found it to be an engaging and deepening path into the sacredness of everyone and everything. I wouldn’t miss it.”

Swatantriya Meditation – the meditation of absolute freedom. This is the form of meditation taught by Lawrence and includes practices from all traditions. Swatantriya Meditation is based on the inner power of Consciousness called Kundalini in the yogic tradition. It embraces and empowers all meditation techniques to take you beyond the confines of the ordinary mind.
We offer an ongoing nondenominational meditation class that meets every Thursday evening, except for holidays. People can come as frequently as they like. There’s no need to sign up for a series of sessions. We offer these meditation sessions to support people in their ongoing meditation practices. Enjoy!
Fee: All donations gratefully accepted ($20 suggested donation per session).
All donations go to support the Anam Cara Meditation. Beginners are welcome, along with experienced meditators. A wide variety of techniques and practices are taught, including chanting, mantra and mindfulness meditation.
