SANCTUARY – The Vibration of Autumn – Sacred Sound Journey with Mark Biehl

The Center for Spirituality and Sustainability is an independent, not-for-profit organization located in a geodesic dome designed by Buckminster Fuller on land leased from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE). Since 1971 the Center has served the University and area communities as a place for multifaith and interfaith activity.  A variety of educational, cultural and social events are held throughout the year inside this landmark structure.Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Baha’i and Native American faith traditions hold devotions, celebrations and public programs at the Center. A “Celebration of World Faiths” is held annually, highlighting various faith traditions and interfaith issues. The Center also hosts an annual awards ceremony honoring two awardees each year. One award is presented for spiritual leadership and another for leadership in sustainability. These annual dual awards allow the Center recognize those who have shown leadership values that reenforce the Center's mission to promote humanity's sacred connection to the Earth and each other.

Sound Events

Twice a month, the Dome's unique acoustics serenade attendees under the guidance of sound facilitators Ashaleah and Mark Biehl. Join us for these deeply meditative and restorative events.

*Advance Registration Required*Mark Biehl presents a unique sound blessing ceremony to welcome the season of Fall, and inspire us to gracefully move through our own seasonal process by letting go of what no longer serves us and embracing change. Allow the deep vibrational energies of over twenty beautifully tuned Himalayan singing bowls, indigenous flute, melodic instruments, drumming and vocal mantra to guide us through clearing and release, as we plant seeds to begin a new path of personal growth and transformation. Autumn begins the onset of shorter days, the harvesting of crops, and a time to prepare for the winter ahead. The element of metal that represents autumn, is found abundantly in singing bowls from the Himalayas, and is a symbol of refinement and inner strength. The season of Fall encourages us to make use of everything that is necessary and pure, and to eliminate those things or qualities that are wasteful and no longer necessary. "Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go."The Buckminster Fuller Dome (Center for Spirituality &amp; Sustainability) provides the perfect setting for an inspiring sound healing experience!Please bring a yoga mat, blanket, pillow, and eye covering (optional).
