a*) Susan A. Remek, PhD: “How to Create and Dispatch a Despacho” (Workshop: 3 hrs)
A despacho is both a prayer bundle or offering and a form of “living prayer” developed by the Q’ero shamans. It is their primary way of expressing Ayni, or “sacred reciprocity” with the universe. To create a despacho, a shaman endows materials with spiritual energy, adds to these items the specific energetic concerns of those for whom the despacho is made, and arranges the whole into a mandala-like structure that, when “dispatched,” will carry human aspirations and intentions into the invisible, energetic realms. Learn about the symbolic materials and basic types of despachos, and have your personal desires and concerns actively addressed by participating in a despacho ceremony yourself.

b*) Rev. John White: “Awakening Your Mediumship Abilities” (Workshop: 3 hrs)
Gifted intuitive Rev. John White explains some of the many aspects of mediumship: how to demonstrate proof of survival in your mediumship; the five modalities of mental mediumship; the difference between psychic ability and mediumship; how to work in both fields; and how to work with your spiritual guides. Discover your own unique path.

c*) Valentina Onisor, MD: “Love & Angels: Healing the Heart with the Help of Angels — Part One” (3 hrs)
Matter is, in essence, nothing but spiritual substance fixed in a certain way, by the will of God. According to Islamic religion, angels are created by Allah from light (nur). Angels have the extraordinary ability to materialize at crucial moments, and take on the temporal form of the human being. Hear relevant testimonials on angels, followed by methods for putting us in resonance with them. This includes a unique group healing of the heart that encompasses the Christian practice of forgiveness to develop the power of true love, purity, compassion, etc.; qualities that will remove the soul’s unrest. (Continued in Session 18b)
