Benjamin Franklin – American Initiate
Classic Insights Seminar Weekend
Friday, May 18 – Sunday, May 20, 2012
Andrew Flaxman
Annie Gray
The Interlaken Inn, Lakeville, Ct.
This seminar will be moderated jointly by Andrew Flaxman, Director of Classic Insights, a Princeton graduate and Prof. Annie Gray, Ph. D., University of Tenn. (Knoxville) Both moderators have been students of Spiritual Science for many years.
Benjamin Franklin was the most philosophical of the “founding fathers.” This seminar will discuss his beliefs about repeated earth lives, Christianity and his relationship to Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism. The last was, at that time, the most secret society of all.
Treat yourself to a practical and inspirational seminar program this next spring at the Interlaken Inn, Lakeville, CT. You'll be surrounded up to 35 other people who also wish to discover new insights about how hidden wisdom about us can be brought out through serious discussion with others. Using a concise, lively and intriguing lecture/guide (Classic Insights Course # 16), participants will explore how we can transform ourselves and live a much more successful life.
