What we’re about
Are you a spiritual adventurer? Do you yearn to explore the far reaches of spiritual consciousness? The purpose of this group is to provide a common meeting ground for all who have had, or would like to have, a life-changing spiritual experience.
Our goals are to help each other,
- validate and gain insight into our own spiritual experiences,
- understand what our experiences really mean, and
- learn new and advanced ways of exploring our inner worlds.
This Meetup group is sponsored by Eckankar of California as a spiritual resource for people of all faiths and beliefs. Eckankar is the Path of Spiritual Freedom, an individual, creative practice to explore and understand the variety of spiritual experiences, such as lucid or significant dreams, out-of-body travel, past life recall, or encounters with spiritual masters—and to grow from these experiences, bringing more meaning, purpose and joy to daily life.
Individuals and families of all faiths and backgrounds are welcome. This Meetup site and its events are supported by the Eckankar Center of Sacramento, serving Sacramento and surrounding counties. We are located at 2641 Cottage Way, Suite 7, in the city of Sacramento. The Center hosts in-person and online events for spiritual seekers and members of Eckankar, and has free books and other materials available for those who wish to learn more.

See all- Pack Light — It’s a Soul TripLink visible for attendees
Have you ever Soul Traveled? Soul is who and what we actually are, and at any moment Soul can choose to be at any time or place in the universes of creation.
“Soul Travel is getting in touch with your higher nature, which is Soul. As Soul, you have the ability to transcend the physical body and travel into the spiritual worlds of God.
This is essentially the expansion of consciousness.”
—Harold Klemp, ECKopedia: The ECKANKAR Lexicon, p. 269So, have you ever Soul Traveled?
You might be surprised to discover the answer is “yes” if you’ve ever:
• Had a lucid dream or out-of-body experience
• Received a sudden flash of knowing
• Lost yourself in your vivid imagination
• Felt the heightened sensations of expanded awarenessMoments like these often leave a lasting impression—along with lingering questions: What just happened? Was it real? Am I the only one who’s experienced this? If I’m not my body, what am I?
We’ll explore these questions and more through the lens of Soul Travel—a timeless practice for discovering the worlds within and recognizing yourself as Soul, a limitless spark of God.
What to Expect
This session is an open discussion—your insights, experiences, and questions are welcome. We can also try a simple spiritual exercise together: chanting the sacred sound HU, an ancient mantra. HU can help quiet the mind and open you to a greater understanding of your imagination, dreams, knowingness, and higher awareness.Please come. No pressure. No prerequisites. Just bring your voice and curiosity.

- Experience Heaven on Earth: A Sound of Soul EventLink visible for attendees
- Can you recall where and when were you the happiest? Was it a place, a person, a pet, or even God?
- Would you like to experience that again and many times more?
- Are you ready to experience the ancient mantra, HU, to raise your spiritual IQ and experience heaven on earth?
“Occasionally we go to a far world which has a beauty beyond words. There is no true way to describe what is seen. The closest is to say it’s a world illuminated by two golden suns, and everything is seen through a golden veil. When Soul comes here and begins walking into the land of gold, It wants never to return; It wants to go on forever.
“There is a yearning to go even farther, farther than ever before, because the love of God always draws you on.
“But our responsibilities bring us back. And the only way we can ever go further into the heart of God is to face our responsibilities to serve God in this world. This is the paradox that both allows us to grow and gives us the yearning to want to grow.
“Sing HU, and you will find the way to the world of Golden Light that is exactly right for you.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 79You are warmly invited to experience HU, the Sound of Soul and explore this uplifting love song to God, how it can benefit you in bringing more awareness into your daily life.
