the Events Page, all the new and recent information regarding the show, its guests, and
the activities of all involved.
****Bridging
and Google/YouTube Collaborate****
All Bridging Shows Made Available World
Wide--At No Cost
We are so pleased and delighted to announce one of Bridging’s newest joyous
and loving collaborators, Google Corporation and, in particular, Google Video and YouTube.
Google has graciously agreed to host the entire Bridging collection of, at present, 237
shows (with additional magnificent Specials and Videos) on their Google Video and their
YouTube sites. Marvelously then, any and all of the Bridging shows will now be available
throughout the world at any time, for anyone to watch as many times as they desire—at
no cost. The energy of that opportunity, especially when all the hundreds and hundreds of
amazing and powerful and inspiring and empowering guests feature that availability of
their own show and Bridging as a whole on their individual sites, will exponentially
amplify and enliven and magnify the vibration of Truth, of Oneness, of Love.

Google has been so generous and gracious in their collaboration with us that we
were, in fact, almost amazed. They have provided us with a personal representative named
Adam who gave us a personal number to reach him and has been consistently helpful,
supportive, attentive, and loving the entire time. He told us that, in essence, the
corporate philosophy of Google is “to treat others as they would like to be
treated”. Certainly not novel or new, but for one of the premier corporations of the
world, one of the true success stories and innovators, to believe in that philosophy and,
more so, to act on it, is truly a wonder….and, an indication that we are, in fact,
crossing the “bridge” into the new paradigm.
At present, there are all the Bridging shows available on Google Video and
YouTube. That means that there are over 470 hours of Bridging show videos "dedicated
to the Oneness" available worldwide 24/7 on some of the most secure and available
internet outlets and servers on the planet.
Again….Let us repeat for emphasis: Bridging is honored and delighted to be in
collaboration with Google in making all the Bridging shows “dedicated to the
Oneness” available, at no charge, to anyone, anywhere, in the world.

****Bridging's Art Gala A
Glorious Celebration****
The Bridging Heaven & Earth Foundation Grand Opening Gala at Fresco
Restaurant/Gallery on December 4th in Santa Barbara was a fabulous party and a truly
spectacular and visually beautiful celebration. Many of the International Art Project
artists were in attendance from all over the United States and all of the art submitted to
that point, over 75 pieces, was displayed. Thanks to Jill and Mark Brouillard at Fresco,
the food was amazing and the ambiance was impressive to all.
It came to our understanding that the name the Gala began to be coined halfway through the
planning stages ……..The Grand Opening, was certainly apropos. When we open our
hearts to each other and the world around us, our inner beauty radiates the colors of the
Oneness of All Life and our experience is Heaven on Earth. All of you who collaborated on
this Event, even with the simplest thought, manifested this on December 4th and we are
truly grateful. The world is grateful.
We look forward to the continuing unfoldment of the miraculous Bridging Heaven & Earth
Art Project (see below for further details and updates) as its destiny takes heart and we
love each and every one of you.
Please know that many of the extraordinary art pieces are still available for sale. If you
are interested, please contact us at 805-687-2053. All proceeds from any sales are equally
divided by the individual artist and the Bridging Foundation.
We have spent some time formulating a Grand Opening photo album and slide show as well as
uploading all of the still photographs that were taken at the Gala. We hope that you enjoy
either re-experiencing the Event or seeing it for the first time, if you were unable to
physically make it here. View the slide show and you will be transported magically into
this timeless Opening!
Listed below are links to all of the still photographs that were taken at the Gala. Enjoy!

****"Bridging"
Given "Enlightened Media" Award****
Enlightened Media Award
Magical Blend Magazine
March 2005 Issue
We are proud to announce that Bridging has just been awarded one of the
prestigious "Enlightened Media" Awards given by the world-famous and highly
influential spiritual publication, Magical Blend Magazine
(www.MagicalBlend.com). In their March 2005 issue, now in newsstands and bookstores,
with the extraordinary artwork of Alex Grey on the magnificent cover, Magical Blend,
has recognized and honored all the commitment and dedication of so many who have made, and
continue to make, Bridging such a joyous and loving and empowering adventure into
Oneness. The "Enlightened Media" award reads as follows:
"Host Allan Silberhartz and his dedicated crew of artistic visionaries bring
spiritual television to a new level. The show features interviews with the kind of
guests you really want to listen to, many of whom are the very same sages who have
appeared in the pages of Magical Blend. It’s a talk show that goes
beyond the superficial, into discussions of spiritual evolution, energetic healing,
shamanism, self-realization, and the visionary arts. Musical interludes feature creative
rising stars, and the sets are a visual celebration.
Having just completed its 14th season on the air, Bridging Heaven & Earth can
be seen on cable television in over 100 cities across the United States and will soon be
airing in Canada and Europe as well. Silberhartz and company reach out through the
airwaves with programming designed to open the heart, celebrate oneness, and spread the
vibration of love, and for that we recognize and applaud their growing success."
We at Bridging would like to take this opportunity to thank Magical Blend
Magazine for their incredibly longstanding and steadfast support for Bridging in
particular and for the Oneness in general.

September/October 2005 Issue
"Bridging Media and Spirituality"
“Bridging Heaven & Earth”
In the modern world, the ability to both broadcast and receive information is of
the utmost importance. The media of today's
world plays an increasingly powerful role in bringing all forms of knowledge to the human
population. From traditional outlets such as
conventional television stations, to cable and satellite links, to the explosion of the
Internet, all types and forms of expression are instantaneously available to almost anyone
(at least in the industrialized world). And
yet, is this the information, and the vibration behind that information, that is really
needed as we define our present reality? Are
the expressions of our human connectedness and our true mutuality of concerns, properly
balanced with the violence, sensationalism, and blatant sexuality that so permeates our
airwaves? The answer, of course, in any
truthful response, would sadly be, No!
Yet, is the momentum starting to change? Is the balance starting to move toward more hope
and inspiration and love? On a grass roots
level, through the boundary crossing power of the Internet, the power of our true
connectedness, of our true Oneness, seems to be gaining a valuable and powerful momentum. The number of Internet sites dedicated to a true
and lasting brotherhood/sisterhood of all earthly species are proliferating at an
extraordinary pace. Even in the older, but
still extremely powerful, traditional media outlets such as television (both regular and
cable), radio, and movies, there is a somewhat limited trend to steer us towards more
humanness and compassion. An even more
important case in point, however, from a grass roots and vibrational level, is the
international spiritual television talk show, Bridging Heaven & Earth.
Begun a decade ago at the Cable
facility in Santa Barbara, California, Bridging has become an international magnet
for its spiritual message of Love and Oneness. Hosted
by Allan, the show, which has featured many of the spiritual communities most prominent
Lights, is rapidly spreading its message of Oneness across the globe. Bridging, which calls itself a
“Spiritual Talk Show”, focuses on opening the Heart, bridging the Spiritual and
the Physical, the Human and the Divine, and Heaven & Earth within each One.
Allan's
philosophy/experience, mirrored on Bridging, is that the Oneness, or connectedness
of all, is the true and necessary realization of the human spiritual quest. When a human experiences that Oneness, it
can only be described as Love. Allan joins
with all types of guests to spread the vibration of Love and Oneness to anyone who has a
desire to feel it and to have that vibration of Love awaken, inspire, and heal each Heart. In this time of great transformation, the focus is
to expand, enlighten, and ascend into ever-greater levels of Love, compassion, humility,
and self-awareness. In short, Bridging
is about Love. How apropos that Allan would
now be awarded, “Love Ambassador” by The
Love Foundation (www.TheLoveFoundation.com):
“Congratulations on your nomination being
accepted! We are delighted to announce you as one of our Love
Ambassadors. Your willingness to live your life dedicated to the vision of love is a
potent model for so many. By your words, deeds and actions, you are having a
profound impact on all those you contact. We are grateful and happy to extend
this recognition to you. As this is a newly
released program for us to acknowledge the silent heroes of love, you will be a part
of the very first group on our site. We are honored to connect with so many like
you from around the world that quietly share their vision and personal
commitment to loving unconditionally. Love, light, and peace,” Harold W. Becker, President.
Bridging's very existence is fully derived with and from love. From Allan's core devotion stems the constant
commitment of approximately 100 worldwide members of the Bridging Family who work
tirelessly, and voluntarily, from production to airing, on making the show a reality. They do it simply because of their dedication to
spreading the message of love and openness. Everyone involved believes strongly that the
medium of television has a greater purpose than purely banal entertainment. Television has
not only the power, but the responsibility to transform our shallow beliefs, bridge them
so to speak, from non-awareness to that of awareness.
To date, Bridging has done 183 live one hour shows with a broad assortment
of guests, including teachers, psychics, healers, authors, painters, musicians, singers,
dancers, and channelers. Some of the guests
have included, among other such luminaries as, Michael and Raphael Tamura, Vanessa Stone,
Zhi Gang Sha, Gloria Wentroff, KamYuan, Chris Griscom, Byron Katie, Bill Cozzolino, Louix
Dor Dempriey, Jonathon Quintin, Gene Egidio, Judith Orloff, Stephanie Bennett, Erik
Berglund, Andy Lakey, Ann West, Ali Miner, Ronna Herman, Arthur Douet, Tony Stubbs, Carol
Gurney, Ilizabeth Fortune, and Patricia Diane Cota-Robles.
Allan has consistently expressed his belief and experience that it is not really
important how the guests manifest their gift (whether through the written word, music,
art, channeling, healing or whatever), but that their gift be manifest with grace,
dignity, humbleness, joy and Love.
Bridging Heaven & Earth is
beginning it’s Fifteenth Season in July with such guests as Vivianne Nantel, Michael
Tamura, Jann Weiss, Brent Atwater, Craig Kielburger, Gloria Wendroff, Mani Bhaumik, Sonia
Choquette and Mystic Pop’s own esteemed founder and editor, Devra Jacobs, and Cindy
Shuster. For a full season list and guest
bio’s, please check out our website, www.HeavenToEarth.com.
In the March
2005 issue of Magical Blend Magazine Bridging Heaven & Earth was awarded the
Enlightened Media Award.
"Host

Canada and Europe as well. Silberhartz and company reach out through the airwaves
with programming designed to open the heart, celebrate oneness, and spread the vibration
of love, and for that we recognize and applaud their growing success."
Some of the 150 Bridging cities
include New York, Atlanta, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, Santa Fe,
Fairfield, Iowa City, Providence, St. Paul, and Sacramento, with a heavy penetration in
California. Negotiations are presently underway for Bridging to be carried in many
other parts of the world.
In addition, Bridging's beautiful website (www.HeavenToEarth.com) is a powerful tool for
gaining information and access to its wonderful roster of guests. Full shows are also available on the Internet from
Bridging’s homepage with many more scheduled to come online shortly. All shows
are available in audio format at the Bridging Heaven & Earth Channel of Success Talk
Internet Radio, (www.Success-Talk.com).
In 1999, The Bridging Heaven & Earth Foundation,
a 501 (C) 3, non-profit, educational, organization, was founded with the mission to spread
the vibration of love and support to all aspects of Bridging Heaven & Earth. The Foundation is presently announcing a
monumental Art Project or simply
stated, a world-wide energy amplifying process using art and the collective energies of
many.....
Basically, it is that each artist produce an all-new (so it is fresh, spontaneous and NOW)
work of art (painting, sculptor, collage....anything that comes through them) based on the
theme Bridging Heaven & Earth. The
positive collective, collaborative energies of so many unbelievable, creative, people,
from all over the world thinking, meditating on, and manifesting Bridging Heaven &
Earth will be huge......
All works will be exhibited over
time, on the Bridging television show, on the Internet and all pieces will be
showcased on the Bridging website, http://www.heaventoearth.com/Art
Project.htm (for a list of
the many incredible international artists already committed to the Project, (including
Mystic Pop cover artist, Erin Hogan, please see the website) and featured in the Bridging
newsletter. Gallery openings, shows at beautiful venues, possibly a book of the Bridging
Heaven & Earth art down the road.....it's all open, inclusive, and
infinite.....
All revenues from art sales will be split with the artist and the Bridging Foundation so
each individual artist, as well as the Foundation, will be supported. Every artist in the world is welcome to come forth and
join the Bridging family in this regard.
At least one already scheduled event is on December 4, 2005, where there will be
an opening gala and funraiser to kickoff a month long art exhibit of Project Artists at
Fresco Restaurant/Gallery, in Santa Barbara, California.
This will be a grand celebration and an event not to be missed.
In conclusion, it is shows like Bridging Heaven & Earth that can
transform the future of our media world and the human experience on the planet, by
manifesting the power of Love and the Unity and Oneness of all earthly species. Bridging
Heaven & Earth is vital to the coming together of the global community by allowing
a forum for all to speak their hearts and minds, and drawing them back always, gently, to
the reality that the source is always Love, and that we all are that same true Source.

Bridging. It was a wonderful, joyous, experience that resulted in the magnificent
Mandala that is evidenced below. We have already shown it on Bridging Show # 139 and
the response has been wonderful. Besides its obvious beauty, people are taken with
its powerful healing and inspirational vibration.
Beautiful limited edition, fine
art prints of the "Heaven to Earth Mandala" are now available. Proceeds from the
sale of these prints go to support our Bridging Heaven and Earth Foundation. These are
museum quality prints using archival inks and papers. Each print is signed and numbered by
the artists and all prints (except the large canvas prints) are matted and mounted to
sizes that fit standard frames.
Available sizes include:
8 x 10" = $25
11 x 14" = $50
16 x 20" = $85
20 x 24" = $195
36 x 36" = $750 (unmounted canvas)
To order prints, please send an email to david@gaiastarworld.com
or call 707-467-0109 from 9-5 Pacific time.
This is the letter from Bonnie and David of GaiaStar describing "Heaven to Earth".
For Allan, Shelley, the crew and all
the viewers of "Bridging Heaven and Earth", we have created this mandala called
"Heaven to Earth". Through its radiant colors and patterns you can receive
uplifting energies to empower you on your path. The outer border is created from a
photograph of the core of our Milky Way galaxy. The golden-purple field is made from an
ametrine crystal, embodying the spirit of collaboration. The multi-colored circle of
petals is based on the number 7 and brings flower-potency to all the seven chakras. In the
middle, a glowing purple crystal heart surrounds the New Earth with unending love. Thus,
the mandala reaches from galaxy to home planet, Heaven to Earth, bringing them together in
Oneness and harmony.
With love and blessings,
Bonnie Bell and David Todd
Bonnie and David have also created an "Empowerment
Meditation" for use with the "Heaven to Earth"
Mandala as follows:
Empowerment
Meditation
If you are drawn to do this meditation, you are someone who
is active in bridging Heaven and Earth. This mandala weaves together spiritual, material,
and human-heart energies into a visual source of empowering blessings. As you sit in front
of this image, feel that you are drinking in a flow of love-light. Whatever your unique
service is in helping uplift our reality, you will be supported and catalyzed by
meditating on this mandala.
To prepare for the meditation, set aside at least 15 minutes of
quiet time, in a place where you will not be disturbed. If you are working with a print of
the mandala, place it where you can look at it without strain. If you are working with the
image onscreen, sit in such a way that you can gaze at it with ease. It enhances the
meditation to bring in scents (via incense or essential oils) and good contemplative
music.
You may feel the presence of the Angels in this meditation. Their
elevating energy is active via this mandala. They are allies in helping us transform
Earth’s reality. The meditation has three parts: Absorbing blessings, invoking
positive changes, and setting your prayers free to be accomplished by grace.
Absorbing Blessings
Begin by taking in the beauty that comes through the image. Let
your eyes roam from one part to another, simply enjoying the colors, shapes and vibrancy
of the natural elements. Let your breath quiet and feel your whole body come to rest.
Bathe in the glowing energies of the piece and feel yourself being infused with serenity.
Feel the angelic quality of peaceful joy permeate your being. If your eyes close, that is
fine, you can still take in the transmission from the image. Stay in this absorbing mode
until you feel full of radiant energy.
Invoking Change
When you have taken in your fill of light-blessings, focus on your
prayers for Earth’s uplift. Be in contact with the force of your desire to see things
change. Speak your intentions, internally or out loud. Don’t feel limited at all in
what you can ask for. If doubts or reactions arise, release them via the breath, or with
help from the Angels. Understand that your prayers are linked to the prayers of others and
to a whole host of allies. Visualize the world and your life as you want them to be. See
the shining turquoise globe in the center of the mandala as the New Earth you are helping
to co-create. Invest your intentions with the full feeling of your heart.
Setting Free
When you feel your invoking is complete, set your desires free to
be accomplished by grace. Trust that your intention is merging with a great stream of
blessing from all around the world and from dimensions high and deep. Feel yourself
resting in the web of conscious existence. Conclude your meditation with whatever thanks
and acknowledgements feel appropriate to you.
Gradually bring your attention back to ordinary awareness. You will
feel refreshed and strengthened. Notice what may come through in your awareness and
dreams.
We hope you enjoy and benefit from this meditation. Please feel
free to write us at info@heaventoearth.com
with your experiences of working with this mandala.

*****The
"Bridging Family*****
In this
physical body, all families or organizations experience, at one time or another, the
passing of their loved ones.
We, in the Bridging family, have, in the last year or so, experienced the
passing/loss/transition of three of our magnificent brothers, sisters, friends,
colleagues, lovers, and beloveds in the human forms of Gay Bodick, Steve Jefferson, and
Abigail. All
three had a powerful and significant impact on the Bridging family and its intention of
spreading the Love and Oneness throughout the world. We just wanted
to, in this short paragraph, acknowledge their great and brilliant contributions to our
path of Oneness. We did a Memorial Show # 165
about them and what their incredibly bright lights and spirits brought to the Bridging
family, its dream and intentions.

4/25/2009: Steffan Vanel
Steffan is an internationally renowned Guide and Counselor. He
works with a unique synthesis of Astrology, Tarot, Kabbalah, and Psychology.
He is the author of: 'The Astrological Karma of the USA,' wherein his predictions of the
War in Iraq, the political decline of George W. Bush, and the economic crisis of 2008 have
already come true. Other predictions remain to be seen.
Steffan continues to offer updated Astrological insights into the political and global
realities of our times through his Spiritual Company Newsletter, available by email. Past
archives of his writings may be viewed on his website at: www.SpiritualCompany.com
Steffan has studied Psychological Astrology with the noted author and Jungian Analyst, Liz
Greene. Steffan is especially known, however, as the primary exponent on the planet for
the Karmic Astrology channeled from the Ascended Master Hilarion. Of this information
Hilarion himself has stated:
It is the purpose of this book to set out in simplified form the meanings of the planets
and other Astrological symbols, not only for the lower mundane level of the personality,
but for the higher self or soul as well. This has never been revealed to mankind hitherto.
But time has turned again to a new age. The cycle of Aquarius is about to begin, and man
is at last ready to understand truths additional to those he has already been given.
In his work with individual clients Steffan combines an Astrological Reading with a
Kabbalistic Tree of Life Tarot Reading. The Tree of Life Reading serves as a visible map
of the current psychological/spiritual state of the individual's soul and psyche. Steffan
calls the Astrological Chart the 'curriculum' one has signed up for in this lifetime, and
he calls the Tree of Life Tarot Reading the 'report cards.'
Steffan resides in the remote mountains of Northeast Washington State where he works
regularly with clients by telephone. He does, however, travel extensively giving private
readings, lectures, and workshops on Astrology, Tarot and a writing workshop entitled:
'Mining the Archetypes: Using Tarot Symbolism to Unlock Your Story,' created in
collaboration with creative writing teacher, Ron Schultz.
Steffan has also written the very insightful book: 'Charles & Diana: The Inside Story:
An Astrological-Karmic View.' His next writing project will be a major work on the Tarot,
in theory and practice, in relation to Kabbalah, Astrology and Psychology.
In addition to his work with Astrology and Tarot, Steffan is involved with musical and
artistic projects, indigenous shamanic practices of North and South America, and he is a
long time student of Vipassana Meditation.
And, using his typical opening line in an Astrological Reading, he would say of himself:
He is a Libra. He thinks he is a Scorpio. He pretends he is a Virgo, and in his childhood
he had to be a Cancer.

5/23/2009: James
Weldon
Jim – also known as Rishi Yogadhi Pragya in India and in
spiritual circles, is a visionary, health educator, author, teacher and inventor. From the age of four he had unusual spiritual
experiences of the past and the future and was sometimes found even at that early age
innocently absorbed quietly in meditation. These
experiences as they became stronger along with the deep empathy he felt with others led to
a turbulent youth.
At the age of twenty-one he formally discovered meditation.
Inspired by the illuminating experiences that came, subsequently he taught this meditation
and other health and advanced personal development techniques to many thousands of
individuals in the United States and other countries around the world. During this time he
was a founder of two spiritual communities and retreat centers and a chain of holistic
health clinics.
He continued this search into The Enlightened Mind for 36
years under the personal guidance of three spiritual giants of our age whose teaching have
personally benefited the lives of tens of millions of individuals. Ultimately this
culminated in an insight into the Oneness of all life that could not be denied.
With the blessings and encouragement of these teachers he then
began the Santosha Foundation to offer programs to share the insights that came and to
support the many thousands of individuals who he believes are destined to live the
Enlightened Mind during this unparalleled time of Spiritual growth in human history.
Dr. Weldon is a Naturopathic Physician. He holds technology
patents in 30 countries and is the author of three books and 2 DVD’s and a Colorado
TV series on Health and Spirituality.
He was the founder of his first spiritual community and
conference and retreat center in Florida in 1976. He also was a pioneer in the first
western scientific studies on the physiology of Mediation at MERU in Switzerland and was
also in the first undergraduate and graduate degree program at MIU in Fairfield Iowa.
Presently Dr Weldon lives in Boulder Colorado where he practices age management medicine
and is launching in the spring of 2009 Santosha Village an 80 acre eco-village community
conference and retreat center.

hearts, transforming themselves by reconnecting to their true Divine nature, and to the
oneness of this magnificent eternal and infinite truth. Her childlike, humorous,
spontaneous, profound, enthusiastic and also motherly spirit is a delightful light. She is
in a constant state of wonderment about this entire universe, and still and always will be

Vianna Stibel
Vianna is a grandmother, an artist and a writer.
Her natural charisma and compassion for those in need of help have also given her the
ability to be titled intuitive and teacher.
After being taught how to connect with the Creator to co-create and facilitate this unique
process called ThetaHealing, Vianna knew that she must share this gift with as many people
as she could. It was this love and appreciation for the Creator and humankind that allowed
her to develop the ability to see clearly into the human body and witness many
instantaneous healings.
Her encyclopedic knowledge of the body's systems and deep understanding of the human
psyche, based on her own experience as well as the insight given to her by the Creator,
makes Vianna the perfect practitioner of this amazing technique. She has successfully
worked with such medical challenges as Hepatitis C, Epstein-Barr, AIDS, herpes, tumors,
various types of cancers, and many other conditions, diseases and genetic defects.
Vianna knows that the ThetaHealing technique is teachable, but beyond that she knows that
it needs to be taught. Vianna conducts seminars all over the world to teach people of all
races, beliefs and religions. She has trained teachers and practitioners who are working
in fourteen countries, but her work will not stop there! Vianna is committed to spreading
this healing paradigm throughout the world.

John Sherman
The
only problem anywhere to be found is the false belief that you are at the mercy of your
life, and the only solution is the truth of your nature, which is everywhere and always
present and self-evident. Ridding oneself of the false is as easy as repeatedly tasting
the truth of being here, unmovingly, unchangingly here. This repeated looking directly at
oneself is the infallible method of the vichara.
– John Sherman
John Sherman’s work is to teach the method of the vichara
to all who are interested.
Like everybody else, John spent his life unconsciously searching
for the one perfect path out of the wilderness of human life; the one perfect idea, the
one perfect thing to think, to understand, to want, to have, to believe, to become that
would bring him salvation and satisfaction. The
course of John’s search was extreme compared to most, but the result was the same:
nothing worked, nothing ever does.
Late in 1975, when he was 33 years old, John discovered the
perfect idea of perfect Social Justice, set out to become the perfect Communist
revolutionary, joined with a small group of anarcho-communist radicals, and embarked upon
four years of bank robberies, bombings, gunfights with the police, two escapes from
federal prisons and two years on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted List; all done in the name
of supporting the struggles of the American worker for justice. In the end it came to nothing.
In January of 1976, he was shot and captured during a bank
robbery; in March, he escaped.
In 1978, after two years on the run, robbing banks and
organizing bombings, John was captured by the FBI, tried, convicted, and sentenced to 30
years in prison.
In March of 1979, he escaped again from the federal prison where
he was serving his sentence. In April of
1981, after two years on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list, he was finally captured for
the last time and returned to prison.
In June of 1994, in the fifteenth year of his imprisonment, the
American spiritual teacher Gangaji came to the prison where John was serving his sentence. John found himself face to face with her and, in
that meeting, discovered himself to be eternally and unconditionally free. Three and a half years later, in 1998, he was
released on parole.
Upon his release, John moved to Boulder, Colorado. John met
Carla in Boulder and they were married in June of 1999, in San Rafael, California. In
2001, John and Carla moved to Ojai, California, where they live with their cat, Switters. In August of 2007, John was released from parole.
Since 1999, John offers guidance in the practice of the
vichara, and encourages people to seek only the simple truth of their actual nature. John
speaks from his experience, listens to reports, and answers questions. All meetings and
events with John are always free of charge. All are welcome, with no regard for
religious and spiritual beliefs or practices.
For a closer look at what John has to offer, there are tons of
free content available on two websites:

Amoda is a spiritual
messenger and author of “How to Find God in Everything”. In this book, she
shares a collective vision for humanity’s transformation in which the keys to
unlocking our true spiritual power are revealed. This vision came to her at a time of deep
personal suffering when she asked for higher guidance.
Previous to this, Amoda
had spent 12 years at the University of London working towards a Ph.D. in Psychology, with
several scientific papers published, as well as having presented her work at conferences,
on TV shows and in popular magazines. She was also one of the very first Aerobics
Instructors in the 1980’s in the UK, having set up her own Training School and was a
Lifestyle Consultant and Lecturer. A very sudden ‘spiritual breakthrough”
catalyzed her to walk away from the academic world and pursue of a path of self-inquiry
and spiritual enlightenment that led to India. In 1996, she developed her own method of
“ecstatic awakening” involving movement, breath, music and meditation. Her first
book “Moving into Ecstasy” achieved cult status and she taught many workshops
and retreats in the UK.
After her vision in 2002,
her life underwent another radical transformation and from that point on God became her primary relationship and a
life-long pattern of co-dependent relationships and sense of abandonment dissolved.
Her mission today is to spread the message
in her book by inspiring and empowering others to be active agents of change in the
revolution in consciousness that is sweeping the planet today. She currently lives in the
UK with her beloved, Kavi Jezzie Hockaday, a humanitarian musician who supports her work
with his divine music and unconditional love.

12/12/2009: Wah!
Wah! is her legal
name, exclamation point and all. It was given
to her by a yoga teacher when she was a teenager. Her discography, which includes
ancient Sanskrit chants and equally ethereal English songs, tells the story of her
spiritual transformation, which began not in India but in Africa.
Wah! was in her teens when she traveled to Ghana and Nigeria as part of an American dance
company. She was a musician, singer, dancer, and conservatory student at Oberlin College.
She stayed in Ghana when her stint with the ensemble ended and she lived in a shamanic
shrine in the hills. “I had an experience in Africa,” she recalls. “The
people gathered at sunrise to drum and dance...”
A government coup cut short her stay in Ghana. She returned to the States, finished her
performing arts degree (Oberlin College & Conservatory) and moved to New York City,
where she danced and choreographed, composed and performed music, and tried to cultivate
the sense of community she’d found in Africa. Wah!
had learned the rudiments of classical Indian music at Oberlin and played for her
housemates. They sat and listened to the complex melodies but didn’t participate.
“My experience of wanting people to be involved forced a simplification of my
meditation music,” Wah! says. She switched to simple mantras and a call-and-response
style. It worked. The audience became involved.
Wah! plays violin and electric bass, among other instruments, and her band bears a closer
resemblance to R.E.M. than a Ravi Shankar ensemble. The only instrumental link to Indian
music is the harmonium and an occasional handrum or North Indian finger cymbals.

Eliza Mada Dalian
Mada is an internationally acclaimed medical intuitive,
healer, spiritual teacher, and an award-winning author. After immigrating to
Canada at age of twenty-four, she came across the teachings of the twentieth-century
mystics Georges Gurdjieff and Osho. Their words deeply affected her and in spite of her
training in education and architecture, she devoted herself to the search for truth and
spiritual enlightenment.
Years of focused and committed introspection and
meditation, blessed her with several profound experiences that ultimately led to a
powerful awakening experience at the age of thirty-three. This helped her to discover
first-hand the truth that all the masters point to: we are not our body, mind, pain, and
suffering but rather a manifestation of Love, Consciousness, and Cosmic Joy. This profound
and life-altering experience took her some years to integrate into the ordinary world of
day-to-day life.
In the late 1990s, after leaving behind a career in
Social Services, Mada developed a groundbreaking new healing method – DHM (Dalian
Healing Method) – to help people quickly and effortlessly transform their
psychological and physical pain and suffering into health and consciousness. Described by
many as a medical intuitive, healer, oracle, mystic, and spiritual guide, Mada has
dedicated her life to helping others towards healing and awakening.
Mada's book, In Search of the Miraculous: Healing
into Consciousness, is a recipient of two awards: Book of the Year the
Living Now Award, which honors books that help people attain healthier, more
fulfilling and productive lives; and, the Nautilus Book Award, dedicated in
honoring books that can change the world.

"Bridging"
Reviewed in "Magical Blend" Magazine
In
the June 2004 issue of the world-renowned "Magical Blend" Magazine, Susan Dobra,
reviewed "Bridging" as follows:
Conceived
as an alternative to mind-numbing, dark, and disempowering TV talk shows like Jerry
Springer, Bridging Heaven and Earth is a television show dedicated to heart-opening,
spiritually uplifting ideas of oneness. Now entering its 14th season as a cable TV show,
Bridging Heaven and Earth is broadcast in over 100 cities across the United States and
will soon be in Canada and Europe, as well. Host Allan Silberhartz interviews an
impressive list of spiritually oriented and "new age" guests from around the
world, including many names you've seen in the pages of Magical Blend. There's always a
musical guest, and the productions are surprisingly beautiful, thanks to its crew of
professional volunteers. The conversation is transformational, and spans every spiritual
tradition. To find out if and where it airs in your area (or how to request it) check out
their website, where you can also access audio files of previous shows. Bridging Heaven
and Earth is television that makes a difference.
