The Book of Nature
We live inside a nautilus of prayer – if only we open our senses and perceive what is infused all around. Weaving together the astonishments of science, the profound wisdom and literary gems of thinkers, poets, and observations who have come before us, and her own spiritual practice and gentle observations who have come before us, and her own spiritual practice and gentle observations, Barbara Mahany reintroduces us to The Book of Nature, an experimental framework of the divine.
Awakened and Aligned
“Awake and Aligned” takes you on a powerful conscious journey of spiritual transformation, one where you will learn that this pesky thing called “being human” is not only okay but is a vital com-ponent to living a happy, satisfying and fulfilling life. This extraordinary book offers you a single key to navigating your day-to-day experience in a way that opens you up to receiving everything you’ve ever wanted to do, be or Alignment.
A Coarse of Love
A Course of Love is a living course that leads to the recognition, through experience, of the truth of who we really are as human and divine beings, a truth much more magnificent than we previously could imagine. In the absence of knowing who we truly are, humans are doomed to continually re-create a world of suffering.
The purpose of this Course is to establish your identity. You become confused between the personal self and a true Self only because you have not as yet identified your true Self. Once you have identified your true Self all such confusion will end. ACOL can be quite challenging because it is a radical departure from ordinary experience. It can lead to wonderful revelations but may also lead to an awareness of our habitual limitations, which can be a painful discovery.

Wednesday Night Meditation:
UCM HAS BEEN FEATURING A WEDNESDAY NIGHT MEDITATION ON ZOOM EVER SINCE THE PANDEMIC. THE PRACTICE OF MEDITATION IS CENTRAL NOT ONLY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SPIRITUAL LIFE BUT AS A MEANS OF CALMING ONES MIND AND BODY, CREATING A SENSE OF WELL BEING AND HARMONY AS WE DEAL WITH THE DEMANDS AND STRESSES OF OUR BUSY, BUSY LIVES. IT’S A DOCUMENTED, SCIENTIFIC FACT THAT MEDITATORS LIVE HEALTHIER, LONGER LIVES. THEIR CHRONOLOGICAL AGE IS MUCH YOUNGER, BY YEARS, THAN THEIR BIOLOGICAL AGE. THAT ALONE SHOULD PIQUE YOUR INTEREST.
THERE ARE MANY FORMS AND STYLES OF MEDITATION FROM MINUTES OF FOCUSED ATTENTION AND TOTAL SILENCE, GUIDED IMAGERIES AND SOUNDS, TAILORED TO EVOKE A DEEPER CALLING AND HEIGHTENED AWARENESS OF ONES INNER STRENGTHS AND POWERS.
EACH WEDNESDAY NIGHT FROM 7:00 TO 7:30 PM A DIFFERENT MEMBER OF THE UCM COMMUNITY WILL LEAD THE GROUP THROUGH A MEDITATIVE STYLE. WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN US AND SENSE THE HEIGHTENED ENERGY WHEN SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE SYNCHING IN THE SAME VIBRATION.
COMPASSION ARTS is excited to partner on programs for Unity of Central Mass this fall into 2023, when we will be presenting the Creating Peace Reading Circle monthly book discussion group every third Friday starting in September, and A Thousand Ways to Kiss the Ground monthly gratitude workshop that launches on the first Friday of November.
COMPASSION ARTS is an all-volunteer independent arts and education project for cultivating understanding, respect, and compassion for all animals and the Earth we share. Started in 2015, the COMPASSION ARTS initiative has hosted a wide range of inspiring and informative events, exhibits, festivals, and other programs over the years.
The upcoming COMPASSION ARTS programs with UCM will be facilitated by Ellie Sarty and will feature different guest writers, artists, educators, animal advocates and others.
