He has seen the world while performing on Crystal Cruise Lines and is a popular headliner on MV Explorer’s Seminar at Sea series. Dickison is a frequent guest soloist, recording artist, teacher and member of the award-winning Vancouver-based Phoenix Chamber Choir." "What I heard over and over again is not just how great your voice is, and how amazing you are as a pianist — but the heart and soul that come through when you sing. I think you express your love through music better than anyone I’ve ever heard" (from the Peninsula News Review) Vancouver Peace Summit party Austin and Mary were recently invited to join a special party to celebrate the global Vancouver Peace Summit.

Inspired by our meetings with Dalai Lama Peace Centre Luminaries and in harmony with our E-Book “Because I’m Worth It*” "We have met and talked for almost seven years about the beauty of soul, about living from the energy of soul moment by moment and feeling the comfort of the life force that is flowing there. Together we have shared our soul stories, our epiphanies, revelations, those moments of magic and learning. And now we are called to weave the pearls of our soul’s journey with the wisdom of our hearts. We, Austin and Mary, were called to share our own heart journey with those luminaries who came to our city this past weekend on a mission of Peace. It’s no accident the Dalai Lama Centre for Peace is being established in Vancouver for this city has a rich legacy of pioneers going back several generations. Now we are being called to be pioneers in a movement for peace – peace in our own hearts and minds, in our intimate relationships, in our families, in our work place, in our city, in our country and beyond." "If you have read our e-book* you will have seen how one person found a way to peace and love from what was a violent, stressful environment. We all have stresses in our lives, we all long for love and peace, and the good news is that we can have it." (exerpts from the DYNAMIC LIVING INSIGHT #339) F = Forgiveness The Heart Experiment is for 90 days. To become more peaceful, document the changes, and become ambassadors for peace. Each week, a new Peace Practice will be introduced for that week. Those commited to the Experiment will check off their progress and report results for compiling and submission to the Dalai Lama Peace Centre.

Practitioner Training and Mentorship Program of the Dynamic Centre A Practitioner is one who consciously chooses to live a more spiritually oriented life. If you feel the call to a more fulfilled, happy, abundant, and peaceful life, consider how spiritual practice and mentoring can guide you on your path, assist you as you move through the obstacles and support you in the spiritual disciplines of wholesome transformation. For those who are committed to take time in their daily schedule to reflect, meditate, and think upon the deeper meaning of life and the soul’s hidden agenda, expect the door of consciousness to open, breakthroughs to occur, and a new experience of spiritual wisdom and power to lift your enjoyment of life to extraordinary levels.
Come and understand what it means to become spiritually disciplined; to be ‘in the world but not of it’. Sharpen your perception so you see things as they are from an inner perspective; live with clarity, and make informed choices. Connect with your higher Self, release whatever has held you back, and step into the fullness of life. Learn how to express your true gifted self by serving others in the community. If you have a vision for a better, more spiritually oriented life, and are willing to commit to spiritual practice, this program can take you there.

BEYOND SURVIVING TO THRIVING Our program, based partly on Eric Butterworth’s book Spiritual Economics, is an exceptionally timely topic, given what we seem to be experiencing in today’s economy. #1 From Desire to Intent, March 22 Let’s gather together in these coming weeks and take the time to shift our awareness from the ‘what is not’ narrative all around us to how we can forge a new path that not only satisfies our immediate needs but builds the inner resources that will sustain us for the long term. Let’s invest our energy in creating new beliefs that support and empower new ways of being. This way we all thrive. Sundays @ 10 am, March 22 - Apr 12, 2009 Class and Dialogue based on Unity’s Quest – A Journey of Spiritual Rediscovery. In the Lounge area from 10:00 to 10:30 am. Please bring a journal and a willingness to transform your life beyond what you may now envision. God as Substance: March 22 OMEGA POINT - Spiritual Dialogues, early March, 2009 The roots of the word dialogue can be found in to the Greek "dia" and "logos" which means "through meaning." One might think of dialogue as a stream of meaning flowing among and through a group of people, out of which may emerge some new understanding, something creative. Dialogue moves beyond any one individual's understanding, to make explicit the implicit and build collective meaning and community. Let’s contrast dialogue with discussion. In dialogue we are interested in creating a fuller picture of reality rather than breaking it down into fragments or parts, as happens in discussion. In dialogue we do not try to convince others of our points of view. There is no emphasis on winning, but rather on learning, collaboration and the synthesis of points of view. A Course in Life - January - February 2009 The Principles and Practices of New Thought Materialism and economic woes get the headlines today and can lead many to think the worst is inevitable. However, the good news is that a movement is underway that will bring us into a new relationship with life. This movement is the silent power of our inner spiritual strength, an energy that is the most powerful force in the world. In this series you will discover how using the powerful principles and practices of New Thought can move you into a level of consciousness where you truly can experience your ideal life. Become aware of the core values that underlie all spirituality and experience how to live a life filled with peace, joy and well being moment-by-moment. Connect with the Universal Laws that have guided enlightened souls since the beginning of time.
