“The
good news is we are only a few years away from the anticipated transformation
of human consciousness toward harmony, creativity, and peace rather
than conflict and fear. The
bad news is there isn't much time to make significant shifts in
our perspectives and behaviors to turn the tide toward positive,
life-giving outcomes for ourselves and our planet.”
Although our transition to
the higher spiritual vibration envisioned in many prophesies related
to 2012 will not come without some pain for many of us, to Dr. Laura
Dunham the “systemic breakdown feels…like the fresh
winds of Spirit blowing away what is old paradigm, making way for
a higher consciousness [and a] creative,
equitable, and sustainable approach to trade and commerce.”
In his acceptance speech on election night, then- president-elect
Barack Obama echoed the title of her book when he said we face “a
planet in peril”—extreme weather patterns, climate change,
earthquakes, species extinction, and human-caused disasters such
as the wars and global economic collapse; but he echoed, also, her
optimism by calling for a spirit of hope and unity to carry us through.
Last fall Dr. Dunham published Spiritual Wisdom for a Planet
in Peril: Preparing for 2012 and Beyond. It is an expression
of her spiritual journey and the knowledge, experience, and wisdom
it has brought her over her lifetime. In her talk for SFF she will
share her spiritual philosophy and the hopefulness that form the
basis of her book. “The human consciousness of the future
will need to emerge into a higher harmonic,” she writes in
the introduction, “in concert with dimensions of which most
of us are only partially aware…If we approach this transformational
era with a sense of adventure rather than with fear, we will be
amazed at the opportunities we have been given to co-create a world,
indeed, a universe, that is life-giving in all dimensions.”
We are headed, she believes, for “the greatest shift in consciousness
the world has ever seen.”
Laura Dunham has had careers in higher education, financial planning,
and ministry. She has BA, MA, MDiv, and PhD degrees and a certificate
in “Spiritual Formation.” The Ecumenical Stewardship
Center commissioned her 2002 book, Graceful Living: Your Faith,
Values, and Money in Changing Times. Following early retirement,
Laura and her family moved to Chapel Hill, NC, where she opened
a center to offer, and to teach, spiritual development, metaphysics,
and spiritual energy healing for people, places, and the planet.
With her recent book and other writings, she shares her spiritual
journey and the knowledge, experience, and wisdom it has brought
her over her lifetime.
A copy of her book (a $15.95 value) will be given away as our Angel
Door Prize; copies will also be available for sale, with a portion
of the proceeds going to SFF.
