Welcome All to the
Feast of Tabernacles 2009!
Great indeed will be the day when men can worship One
God, and all will know that we are one humanity living
on one Earth; when men will know there is only the
Essence of God in each human, and we can have a world
filled with compassion, peace, and unity for all.
As part of that pathway to unification, we encourage all
to join us in the celebration of the Feast of
Tabernacles.
The reason we celebrate these Holy Days rather
than other holidays is because these are the only Days
that God demanded of His people to be celebrated
forever and ever. These Holy Days include
Passover and
others (more information can be found in Essays 1
in THOTH,
“Feasts
and Holy Days of the Lord”.
We can actually forego celebration of other
holidays that our culture or families encouraged us to
follow, and, with the Spirit of Unification and wanting
to only do God's Will, celebrate His Holy Days.
The Feast of Tabernacles is one of the longest of these
Holy Days, and the most joyous.
It is the celebration
of the return of Christ (God).
It is a time to “Feast in the Grace of the Lord.”
We come together as a unified body in Christ and
give thanks for His Blessings in our lives; we chant,
sing, do the
Reminder, meditate, laugh, and cry together.
It is a time to relax and bask in the teachings.
We have worked hard during the year to do His
Will, and then God gives us these eight days to be
refreshed and ready for a new year.
We look back at the year at what we did right and
what we did wrong, and we look forward to the coming
year. The
Feast is truly a revival of our spirits.
The Feast
will also be held on PalTalk.
The schedule for this year's Feast can be found
on the website:
http://www.maitreya.org/fot/2009/Index.htm.
All can join us for our services,
THOTH
readings, and most wonderfully, the two times that
Maitreya-ji
Himself will be with us to answer questions and discuss
the Eternal
Divine Path.
Usually
the questions sent in advance will be the first
to be answered.
Please send any questions you have for
these sessions (or any questions about the Feast)
to
questionsFeast@maitreya.org
Also, we do hope you will join us for the Welcome Night,
Thursday October 1st at 8:00 PM MST (http://www.maitreya.org/fot/2009/welcome.htm).
After the Welcome to open the Feast, all are
encouraged to give their testimonials about how much we
all cherish this Mission
and the teachings of
Maitreya-ji.
It will be a Great Feast!
Sal-Om
Sarah
