I chanted in 34 New-Thought churches across the heartland and I was expanded beyond my wildest expectations. Through magical events, I traveled with Dr. David Hawkins for several years. My chanting was added to his “The Highest Level of Enlightenment” CD. Serving a living Master was a wild, wonderful trip across a varied spectrum; a high spiritual calorie diet, like eating double fudge chocolate cake as your only food. A mystical journey until we left in 2006. A Canadian put my chanting on You Tube. Now it has over 2,600,000 downloads, used around the world, while I have been at our suburban hermitage with no need to congregate.

The Buddha and The Christ share a townhouse in my heart. Lao Tzu drops in, we all read and absorb the Upanishads, sometimes, I hang with a Jewish Mystic. The Truth that sets beings free, exists in all the Higher Consciousness traditions.

One of the Holy moments is when one is asked to teach. You asked, and I am obliged to show up with something uniquely my own to give; Holy and Fresh that only I know, as my contribution to the Universal Curriculum. That would be my voice. When wrapped around toning and chanting traditions it will help you find yours. When an amazed reporter commented on Isaac Perlman’s tone on his Stradivarius being almost mystical, he said. “If you had been there for the 20 years of 10 hour practice days, maybe some of my mystery would be less mysterious.”

So, here I am with God and the Buddha as my agents in tow. I need about 30 minutes to take you on a trip through Eternity and back – without a scratch. Keep your hands and feet in the boat, and kindly stay in your bodies. I don’t want to have to retrieve anyone.

Judy Hildebrand 

Judy Hildebrand is a remarkable example of following your inner guidance. She was transformed by Spirit, by that still small voice that revealed her calling to Ministry.

She took on an incredible work load, taking all the required Unity Class to qualify for the selection process to gain admittance to Unity Institute and being a source of light for her special education classroom. As her connection to Spirit becomes more profound so does her ability to manifest the means to support her calling to ministry.

Judy married Scott, her college sweetheart. They have three grown children and a grand son. Daughter Tiffany, an active member at Unity of Divine Love, is having their second grand baby this spring.

Judy is in her second year of the three year Master of Divinity program at Unity Institute, located at Unity Village near Lees Summit, Missouri.

Arvel Bird

Arvel Bird (Paiute/Me’tis), a classically-trained violinist, performs and records in a number of diverse genres including blues, jazz, bluegrass, Celtic, Cajun, Western swing, American roots, and Native music. In addition to the violin, Bird also is an accomplished mandolin, guitar and Native flute player. An experienced musician who toured the world with Glen Campbell, Loretta Lynn, Ray Price and others for several years, Bird recently has turned his musical focus to his Paiute/Me’tis heritage, and now focuses most of his time on writing, performing, and recording music which reflects that background.

Born to a Mormon inter-racial family in Idaho and raised in Utah and Arizona, Bird was aware of his Indian heritage from an early age, but, like many families in that time and place, Indian heritage was not mentioned, let alone celebrated. Bird grew up as part of a hard working, middle-class family and out of fear of his mother’s reaction, he never asked her about her Native origins. As an adult, Bird became more and more interested in his background, eventually donating time and resources to a project aimed at protecting ancient Native burial sites in Tennessee. In 2000, Bird released the first Native American album that simultaneously launched Singing Wolf Records. This sparked the beginning of his personal journey to uncover the truth about his Paiute heritage.
