The Shortcut to Enlightenment ~ Dan Chesbro ~ November 6, 2014

November 6, 2014
7:15 pm EST
- 9:30 pm EST

Dan Chesbro The Shortcut to Enlightenment November 6, 2014 Rev. Daniel A. Chesbro says that according to Buddha, “You must be born, live a while, get sick, lose everything, and die…” Jesus said, “For a man (person) to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, you must be born again…” And, Tom Sawyer said, “You must be born, live a while, and die…” During his presentation on The Shortcut to Enlightenment Rev. Chesbro will discuss The Four Noble Truths in Buddhism: The Truth of Suffering, The Truth of the Cause of Suffering, The Truth of the Cessation of Suffering, and The Truth of the Path to Nirvana (Enlightenment). He will also talk about the Eight Fold Path of meditation in the Fourth Dimension; the Three Poisons in today’s society; and the Buddha (the Teacher), the Dharma (the teachings of Buddha), and the Sanga, the Community (beyond the Human Condition). He will discuss and compare the teachings of Jesus, Buddha, the Dalai Lama, and Tom Sawyer. And, by the end you will learn that you may demand enlightenment, you may be born enlightened, or you may take the shortcut to enlightenment. Daniel will engage the audience in participation with humor and compassion. Rev. Chesbro is an Ordained Minister, Intuitive Counselor, lecturer and teacher. He combines sensitive intuitive abilities with a ministerial background, psychological training, and metaphysical knowledge to teach, guide, and enhance the lives of those he encounters. A dynamic lecturer and teacher, he encourages others to self-love, self-confidence, balance and the pursuit of their own High Spiritual Self. Daniel was born in Groton, Connecticut on August 22, 1944. His intuitive abilities awakened in childhood with dreams and a “feeling” of guidance. As a college student at the University of Connecticut, his experiences guided him to purse a ministerial career. Following seminary training at Andover Newton Theological School, Crozer Seminary, and Colgate Divinity School, Rev. Chesbro became an American Baptist Minister, serving congregations in Boston, Philadelphia, Rochester and Webster, New York. At age 33, he began traveling to spiritual conferences, teaching, counseling, lecturing, and appearing on radio and television. For several years, he hosted a cablevision program called “The Open Door.” His work has taken him all over the United States, to Canada, Europe, India, Tibet and Egypt.

Saturday Workshop and Ordination Description

“Order of Melchizedek” Priesthood Workshop & Ordination

Date & Time: Saturday, November 8, 2014 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Location: Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 3313 Wade Avenue, Raleigh, NC

The Order of Melchizedek is a priesthood of individuals committed to teach and/or heal the Human Condition as it emerges into The Age of Aquarius. Priests are self-selected and their ultimate commitment is between God and themselves to share in their own ways. Everyone is welcome. There is no dogma, no hierarchy. Dan offers a special workshop for Priests. The required workshop is four hours, and the Ordination ceremony follows. Upon Ordination, you receive an “energy boost” to enhance the work that you are already doing. It is a brief and sacred ceremony with universal, yet also individual, impact. During the workshop he will speak in detail about the history of the Melchizedek energies and incarnations, detail the story of the Priesthood, and answer some of the questions most of us have had:

  • Who and what is Melchizedek and the Priesthood of Melchizedek?
  • Where did it begin and what is its purpose and function in The Age of Aquarius?
  • What are the legal ramifications and requirements in becoming a Priest?
  • Can you do weddings, funerals, baptisms?
  • Where do you go to get guidelines and the right information for doing rituals and ceremonies?
  • What books and ancient traditions should you consider reading and studying?
  • What is the connection between the Cabala, The Book of Job, the principle of “The Law of One,” and Melchizedek?
  • What about the ancient Essenes and “The School of the Prophets” in today’s society?
