                                                    NEW THOUGHT CENTER OF HAWAII


    In a world being portrayed as a checkerboard pattern of good and evil, we New Thought practitioners hold to the belief that we are all sparks of the divine, rays of the great spirit, Christ conscious souls, Allah's children and that, with time on our side, we will eventually manifest a healed and  inclusive world in which this truth is its finest expression.

   By providing a loving, accepting, non-judgmental community, we at NewThought Center of Hawaii create a sanctuary for the nourishment, development, and evolution of each person's unique spiritual path.
    The circle we sit in represents our inclusiveness and our equality. We have no minister. We take turns facilitating, and we minister to each other. In addition to sharing our own spiritual insights, we invite teachers from all wisdom traditions. We invite and honor such variety and in ourselves and in the world around us. We understand that no single source has exclusivity of spiritual truth, health and joy and that there is much to be learned from many of these sources.
 
    We gather every Sunday at 10 a.m. in Kealakekua at Pualani Terrace just south of the Kealakekua Library. You are invited to join the circle.      Morty Breier pres. and board of NTCH.

UPCOMING PROGRAMS:
 
Jan. 19  Latif Bolat, Turkish musician.
        Latif Plays traditional Turkish instruments and will also  present teaching from the Sufi tradition.
        One of the most well-known Turkish musicians in the US, Bolat possesses a
vast repertoire, ranging from Sufi devotional songs and Turkish Folk music to
classical pieces.  His mesmerizing performances draw on ancient texts and
employ traditional instrumentation such as the baglama (long necked lute),
oud and ney flute.  In addition to full schedule of concert, lecture and
workshop engagements at universities and concert halls around the world, he
has made many live audio and television appearances and composed soundtrack
music for the PBS documentary: Muhammed: Legacy of a Prophet and George
Lucas's "Young Indiana Jones". 
        For more information:Lbolat@aol.com ; www.Latifbolat.com  (for info and music samples)

        "He plays beautiful music and has 2 or 3 cd's that will be on sale. I traveled with him through Turkey
last September and had the opportunity to hear him often and to join in his Sufi activities. Very worth while..."   Rick Schulze

CARS & COMPUTERS  via Ed Bourne
For all of us who feel only the deepest love and affection for the way computers have enhanced our lives:
At a recent computer exposition (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly
compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated:
"If General Motors had kept up with the technology like the computer
industry has, we would all be driving $25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon."
In response to Bill's comments, GM issued a press release stating:
"If General Motors had developed technology like Microsoft,
we would all be driving cars with the following characteristics:
1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You
would have to pull over to the side of the road, close all of the
windows, shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before
you could continue. For some reason, you would simply accept this.
4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would
cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which
case you would have to reinstall the engine.
5. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was
reliable, five times as fast and twice as easy to drive -- but
would run on only five percent of the roads.
6. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would
all be replaced by a single "General Protection Fault" warning light.
7. The airbag system would ask "Are you sure?" before deploying.
 8. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you
out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the
door handle, turned the key and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
9. Every time GM introduced a new car, car buyers would have to
learn to drive all over again because none of the controls would
operate in the same manner as the old car.
10. You'd have to press the "Start" button to turn the engine off.

WORDS OF WISDOM / QUEST FOR QUOTES
 
- "The greatest purveyor of violence in the world today -- my own government."
                                                                                                                    Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., April 4, 1967 via Larry Morningstar
-  "In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.
