Krazy Kayak Adventures
Welcome to Crazy Kayak Adventures Tribe! We are into kayaking, camping, nature walks, hiking, bicycling, backpacking or just sharing a love for the outdoors. If you enjoy paddling rivers, creeks and lakes, this is the group for you! Our group is intended for both beginning and experienced recreational kayakers from the Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky areas to share their passion for the sport of kayaking. Again, all skill levels are welcome! Keep in mind that paddling involves some inherent risk. Because of this, some paddles may not be appropriate for new or beginner paddlers. You must read and accept our release of liability prior to joining or attending any event. Our agenda is to safely promote the sport of kayaking & camping, to relieve the apprehension that beginners always have and help familiarize kayakers & campers with the beautiful natural world and fun that kayaking & camping offers. We kayak our favorite lakes and slow-moving rivers, increase our skills, demonstrate and share our equipment with novices, encourage our children and grandchildren to take up our favorite pastime. Lets have fun with old friends and new! It's all about the Campfire! Enjoy Crazy Kayak Adventures! We are here to have fun and We're glad you are here!

Meditation for Spiritual Awareness Springboro Ohio

Springboro, OH

Meditation for Spiritual Awareness Springboro Ohio

Meditation for Spiritual Awareness Meetups are open to people of all faiths and backgrounds, and all meditation practices. Whether you are starting out and want to explore this further, or have been meditating for years, these meet-ups aim at increasing our understanding of the technique and improving our practices.

People have been practicing meditation for centuries. Today we see a surge in its popularity as new benefits continue to be discovered. Meditation has been proven to benefit both our bodies and minds. Many are now realizing an additional advantage — the tremendous benefits spiritual meditation has for our soul.

Regions of Light that embrace souls with a powerful love await each one of us within. Sights and sounds beyond anything we could ever imagine reside within us. Incredible music, far beyond any that can be produced by worldly instruments, is reverberating at every moment.

Does it Cost Anything to Learn this Meditation?

Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj says like all other gifts of nature, spirituality is free. He teaches meditation free of charge, and programs sponsored by Science of Spirituality are also free.

Do I Need to Learn Yoga in Order to Meditate?

Unlike some forms of yoga, this meditation technique does not involve difficult practices or rigorous postures. We can meditate when sitting in any pose that is comfortable, in which we can sit still for an extended period of time. Meditation on the inner Light and Sound is so simple it can be practiced by anyone.

Can we Remain in Our Religion and Practice this Meditation?

The spiritual teachers of this path never advocate that we change our religion or withdraw from the world to practice meditation. In fact, a hallmark of this path is positive mysticism, the belief that we should fulfill our duties and obligations to our families and societies while pursuing our spiritual goals.

And all of these events are sponsored by Science of Spirituality and are free of cost. Science of Spirituality is a worldwide spiritual organization dedicated to transforming lives through meditation, under the direction of Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj.

What makes us different? The area between Cincinnati and Dayton is fast growing and under-represented in the Meetup arena. We are trying to bridge that gap with social activities that take place all over this region.

What else? If you’re shy, come early and meet with the organizers first. We will do our best to make you feel at ease and introduce you to others as they arrive for an event. 

Is that all? Remember, we can organize events, but without you, there is no group. So sign up and get active!
