First Saturdays: World Spirituality Service and Celebration – June 4th

Identifying Your Unique Gifts:
The Power and Practice of the Evolutionary Lover

A Three-Week Telecourse with Dr. Marc Gafni

June 8th, 15th, & 22nd

Every human being has a particular set of gifts that they can offer in the world. The nature of the gift, like the perspective held by every human being, is utterly unique. The ability to offer this gift freely in the world depends on our ability to free ourselves of limiting and false notions of who we are, and identify with our larger service. Some of our gifts are modest, private and intimate—some are larger than life and have dramatic impact in the public sphere. However, every Unique Gift arises and may be offered in all four quadrants. From a non-dual perspective, your unique gift creates your unique obligation. Man’s deed is God’s need.

God needs your service. God, in the first, second and third person, needs your service. To live your Unique Self and offer your Unique Gifts is to align yourself with the evolutionary impulse and fulfill your evolutionary obligation as a Lover.

Living as an Evolutionary Lover is the passionate path of the New Enlightenment. The way you make this path real and alive in your life is by identifying and giving your Unique Gifts. Buddhism teaches the Enlightenment of Emptiness. To do this you must dis-identify with your personality story. And this is fully half the story.

The second half of the story is the Enlightenment of Fullness. To realize the enlightenment of fullness you must fully inhabit, embody and Live Your Story.

There are four key steps in this process:

1. Evolve beyond exclusive identification with ego
2. Take off the mask of your particular false self
3. Identify your Unique Gift
4. Begin to give your Unique Gift in the world

These four steps and the practices that take you there are the path to the Enlightenment of Fullness.
