Do you want to help the world and build a stronger connection with your own spiritual nature at the same time?
 TRANSMISSION is a unique form of group meditation during which great spiritual energies of light, love & synthesis that stream into our planet are stepped down & released through the energy centres of the participants. This process has a transformative effect on humanity as well as the individuals in the group. Join Gary Dorko for an introduction & hands-on experience of this potent form of group meditation.
