Eckankar Ghana Set to Hold 2015 Eck Regional Seminar



Eckankar Ghana is set to hold its 2015 Eck Regional seminar in Accra in which about more than 2000 members from across the country and beyond are expected to attend.
Described as a soul searching gathering, the prestigious event, slated for July 31 to August 2, has the theme, “listening to the voice of God.”

It’s touted as one of the biggest event on the Calendar of Eckankar, the religion of light and sound which are the manifestations of the voice of God.

Topics to be addressed at the seminar includes: "Divine Love, a Universal Language?" "How Past Lives affect your present life;" "How do I change the world I created?" “Making this life a worthwhile experience”, “Replacing fear with love” amongst others.

The 3-days event will begin with a public workshop on Thursday, July 30 from 2:00p.m – 5:00pm, then continue from 6:00pm to 8:00pm which will serve as an ice breaker to the main seminar which starts off on Friday July, 31 and ends at August, 2

The Public Workshop is expected to take place at the Accra Technical Training Centre (ATTC) Auditorium, Kokomlemle in Accra on the topic: “Inner Guidance, our divine birthright” which provides the platform to share knowledge towards experiencing the love of God.

Whilst the main seminar which is dubbed the “2015 ECK Regional Seminar” will take  on at the Temple of ECK, Okponglo, East Legon, Accra.

Facilitating the thought-provoking workshop, will be, Anne Archer Butcher, an American leading member of Eckankar Clergy, who will be teaching Ghanaians the techniques on how to find inner guidance.

Anne Archer Butcher, who is also a renowned book author, will be launching her book, titled: “Inner Guidance, our Divine Birthright”, a powerful book which is capable of transforming lives through the wisdom of inner guidance.

Ms Butcher will also serve as a guest speaker during the actual seminar which is a three-day power-pack event which is on the theme: “Listening to the voice of God”

According to Anne, her coming to Ghana will help show people the way to God and assist them to overcome challenges they faced in everyday life.

She advise Ghanaians to part of the public workshop and patronize the spiritual book which will serve as a guide in helping people discover how to conquer fears, face challenges with ease, enhance inner guidance, recognize daily miracles and resolve karmic ties.

Briefing the media on the upcoming seminar in Accra, Dr Sam Dufu, Regional Spiritual Aide of Eckankar, Ghana, disclosed all is set for the major event to come alive in grand style.

He said the new 6000 capacity Temple is ready while other facilities such as accommodation have been arranged for to ensure the success of the event.

He said apart from Eckankar members, “all others are invited to come and listen to the speakers and experience the love of God.”

On the benefits of the seminar, he explained that the speakers would aid the participants to find keys to happier life and to strengthen their spiritual consciousness with God.

Touching on the issue of same-sex marriage in Ghana from Eckankar’s position, Dr. Dufu said Eckankar supports same-sex marriage because the religion does not infringe on people’s rights.
“At Eckankar we do not discriminate sexual orientation of people, so long as it is in harmony with life and the law supports it, we will support it” he posited.

Dr Dufu, asserted that should it be passed into law in Ghana today, Eckankar holds no view contrary to its approval but to accept it in good faith. But pushing for its legalization in Ghana, he said is not the priority of Eckankar since “our laws does not support it”

“As far as Eckankar is concerned we don’t really have a stand on this, we work in a country where it is not accepted, and we go with that law. If we work in a country where it is accepted as law, we work with it” Dr. Dufu stated.

The 2015 Eck Regional Seminar would be a forum where members would give testimony about the power of the Holy Spirit and how it works in their lives.

Eckankar is a religion that teaches about the spiritual exercise that one must do to experience the Light and Sound of God by singing the word HU to move individuals to a greater state of consciousness for the realization of the Holy Spirit in one's life. It believes in Kama, the spiritual law of cause and effect, that is, one reaps what one sows, and the concept of reincarnation.

Photo of a man with amazingly ‘super head’ causes a stir on social media

Many eyes have seen it but are yet to believe. To those who are convinced that God's creature exits on earth with such a weird shape of head have been left totally flabbergasted and worried too.That is human nature; doubting Thomases everywhere. A man whose photo has been making rounds on social media platforms has been the one in the centre of a huge controversy that rendered onlookers astounded and divided. The photograph in question has really created a scene that is of comic relief and over-sensational. The problem per se is not about his facial appearance but borders specifically on the 'caricature' shape of his head coupled with his jaw-jutting chin which has become the point of attraction at all cost.  It appears no amount of words could best describe the shape of his 'Hill-Valley-Hill Head' which looks very sparkling without hairs on it.  But some social media users who caught sight of the photograph have been reacting with varying...
