Miceal Ledwith from What the Bleep Do We Know?!?

The lost years in Egypt, India and Tibet:
and its implication for us today

Miceal Ledwith, Ph.D. was one of the featured scholars in "What the Bleep Do We Know!?" and its sequel "Down the Rabbit Hole."

Micael (pronounced "me-hall" is Irish for Michael) was ordained a Catholic priest in 1967 and later became an advisor to the Vatican as well as the former president and professor of Systematic Theology for sixteen years at Maynooth College in Ireland

Ultimately disappointed with Catholic theology Miceal set out to seek the true answers to life's great questions. His search for the God within (as opposed to the God without) involved the painful separation of time-conditioned modes of thought and views of how reality is and the fundamental beliefs about God and human destiny.

It was at this stage that he found the vast and sophisticated body of teachings coming from Ramtha's School of Ancient Wisdom, which he discovered filled many of the gaps in knowledge and the even greater gaps in experience, in the existing world religions. He has actively studied at Ramtha's School for many years and has been invited to lecture at teaching sessions held by the Ramtha School in North and South America, Europe, Australia, South Africa and Japan.

Fun things in the City is the discussion board for everything that we as New Yorkers want to tell each other about. The posting I posted about added value benefits (in my opinion) the community, and therefor Zaadz. They do great work (just check link to their site), and sometimes need volunteers (also see volunteer board).

Since there is always a first posting to introduce what a specific discussion board is going to be about, I posted a first posting 'Fun in the City'. It has an introductory explanation what should be posted here. I just illustrated it with a 'New York Outing/ Brooklyn' illustration (added value operates in Red Hook).
