NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR
This past weekend I had the occasion to hear Josh Groban's song, "You Raise Me Up" If you haven't heard it in a while, take a moment to listen to the lyrics! At one time or another we all have experienced, being Raised Up, by the love and support of someone else in our lives. What happened and Why did you need their support? How was it that they were there just at the right time and they supported you?

Was it the Universe working overtime to keep you safe and on your Path to Fulfillment? Have you ever considered, What you would have done if that person hadn't been in your life to support you? Were you able to Thank Them?

Perhaps today you will take a moment to consider doing just that. A phone call, a card, a letter, or just a prayer if they no longer inhabit this earth.

We all have the power to raise one another up. Our thoughts and actions can be of support and care. Thank You, TGLH Members for so Lovingly Raising Up One Another, during these changes we are all experiencing in the "Age of Aquarius." See you at The Center where We Raise One Another Up!!!

June 🥰

FEATURED INTERVIEW: OSCAR MATA

Observations by Theresa Puskar

They (TGLH Community) can give you really good guidance and ultimately help you develop some of the gifts you have.
— Oscar Mata, Board Member & Community Member, The Gathering Lighthouse

Pictured: Theresa Puskar & Oscar Mata

At this year’s Theosofest, I had a chance to meet with Oscar. Whenever I see him at Gathering Lighthouse events, he’s been very warm and friendly. If you ever have a chance to sit down with Oscar, be sure to ask him about the history of his spiritual journey. It is truly fascinating. In fact, with my script-writing background, I think it would make a terrific screenplay! The trait he possesses that most impacts me is his absolute commitment to his personal growth journey. He has learned to listen to that guiding voice within, and in doing so, he has experienced extraordinary spiritual communication and self-discovery. 


The one thing that Oscar emphasizes time and again is how he is so appreciative of the community connection that he has made at The Gathering Lighthouse. Most recently, he discovered a men’s group and was thrilled with the connections that he made. What he appreciated most was how the men were willing to speak deeply and honestly about themselves – a rare experience when environmental programming so often discourages men from being vulnerable or emotional.

One night while stargazing late at night. He had a conversion with a multi-dimensional being.  

This entity shared the existence of a limitless archive hidden in a higher dimension.  They called it the Akashic records.  A library of limitless information holding all of the blueprints of life.  They mentioned that they were re-issuing a library card that he had from a previous life.  But in order for him to return he would need to “follow the trail of breadcrumbs”.

Ultimately, two things struck me when I met with Oscar. First was his commitment to always follow his inner guidance. I’m right there with you, Oscar. Second was his courage to stretch himself and enter into a broader spiritual journey; one in which he meets with a spiritual teacher. At times I ask myself if I have the courage to surrender any fears that I may have to consciously plunge into the vastness of other plains. While I have no doubt that we all access a higher dimension, I applaud Oscar for having the courage to take his physical personality self to consciously explore the great unknown. You may ask yourself, “Do I have the courage to meet with beings from other dimensions in my human, conscious form? If not, what am I most afraid of?”
