Workshop: $5 Recommended Donation. For Info: (805) 646-2726, Ext. 20 or E-mail: dialog@kfa.org. Visit their Web Site at www.kfa.org
The program starts with a video of Krishnamurti (approximately one hour), then seeks to investigate, develop and explore the topic of the video via the medium of dialogue. Generally, there is a larger and a smaller group, but in each, the emphasis is on "thinking together" in such a way that our common consciousness can be uncovered, exposed, and understood.
Discovered as a boy by the Theosophical Society, Krishnamurti was groomed to be the new World Teacher, a role he repudiated in 1929 when he declared that "truth is a pathless land" and that his sole mission was "to set men . . . unconditionally free." For the rest of his life, he traveled the world exploring the issues of our common humanity with large audiences and invited participants. He had a special interest in education and founded schools in India, England, and California. Krishnamurti died in Ojai in 1986.Sundays, May 18, 10:30 am-12:30 pm

YVONNE R. SMITH, C.Ht. *discussing & signing* "CHOSEN: Recollections of Alien Abductions Through Hypnotherapy"
www.YSmith.com
In "Chosen", Yvonne Smith offers transcripts of subjects' recollections of alien abductions, unblocked from hidden memory by regressive hypnotherapy. She has specialized in the use of hypnotherapy to assist those who have suffered post-traumatic stress as a result of "close encounters". In UFO circles, whenever there is a reported sighting, the emphasis of UFO investigations is to evaluate whether or not the new experience description supports the reality of a non-earthly contact. Smith, however, emphasizes the effect upon the person who experienced the encounter, and less with the UFO description. She provides the reader with information in order to consider, evaluate and ultimately decide for him/herself.Tuesday, May 27, 7:30-9:30 pm

RUSSELL TARG *discussing & signing* "DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?: Memoirs of a Blind Biker Laser and Love, ESP and the CIA, and the Meaning of Life"
www.hamptonroadspub.com www.espresearch.com
Russell Targ has been visually handicapped since childhood and yet he has performed groundbreaking research in lasers and optics and has participated in recently de-classified, NASA-sponsored work in "remote viewing". He is grounded in the world of science and yet co-created the Cold War spy program that became the real "X-Files" - the CIA. Targ's memoir also reads like a cultural history of the last half of the Twentieth Century. It is the remarkable story of a physicist who sees beyond perception to help readers find meaning and joy.Saturday, May 31, 10:00 am-12:00 pm
ROGER WEIR presents "HERMETIC AMERICA"
A Saturday lecture series
Workshop: $30. DVDs $20, CDs $10. For Info: (310) 278-9668
Join teacher/translator Roger Weir for this ongoing educational series where he presents a pioneering vision to recalibrate the Hermetic tradition. This 13-part series is based on long research and "The Learning Civilization" cycle. This is the ninth lecture of the series. Each lecture is complete in itself and may be attended individually but all the lectures work together as a comprehensive whole.
Ancient wisdom rediscovered ignited the Renaissance. The most profound vision of the Renaissance was of a New World. The United States manifested this vision, honed especially by Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and a host of others, some well known like James Fenimore Cooper, some little remembered like David Rittenhouse, or some "honorary" Hermetic Americans like the Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Paine. The Hermetic Double Helix then developed immense creativity from Emerson and Thoreau, Lincoln and Whitman all the way to our own time of James Dewey Watson, Richard Feynman and Barack Obama.
Weir is noted for his dynamic, broad-reaching cosmic lectures that range from the most esoteric spiritual teachings to the latest in scientific exploration while planting the seeds of dynamic personal transformation and nurturing self education. Attend one of Roger Weir's lectures and find out why this is a not-to-be-missed opportunity.Saturday, May 31, 7:30-9:30 pm

Dear Friends of the Bodhi Tree,
One of the most common problems of life in Los Angeles is finding a parking space. Here's a guide that we hope will make it easier for you to park and help you avoid getting a parking ticket when visiting the Bodhi Tree Bookstore in West Hollywood. A variety of parking is available: metered spaces, some spaces at particular times in the permit parking areas, Valet parking, parking structures and spaces in front of the Used Book Branch. All this is explained in detail in the "Parking" section on the Bodhi Tree web site in the "Events" section.
Valet Parking: The City of West Hollywood, the Urth Caffé, the Bodhi Tree Bookstore and other local merchants have a community Valet Parking program. The pick-up area is in front of the Bodhi Tree Annex building at 8583 Melrose Avenue. The cost is $3.50 and it is in operation from 10:30 am until 11:00 pm. Consider using Valet Parking the next time you want to visit not only the Bodhi Tree Bookstore but also Dr T's across the street to get some Chinese herbs, followed by a visit to Soolip for some beautiful paper. Before heading home, you can relax with a wonderful "caffé" at Urth or Le Pain Quotidien. Through Valet Parking, you may "forget" about your car for a long time.
How to park for free: The Bodhi Tree Bookstore offers a "help you park" program. We will reimburse or credit the basic Valet fee ($3.50) for a minimum purchase of $10.00.WHERE YOU CAN NEVER PARK:
The side streets north of Melrose: No parking is allowed at any time in the area north of Melrose (towards Santa Monica Blvd.), except at a parking meter space.
The side streets south of Melrose-east side: The area south of Melrose is a different permit area with different rules. There is no parking at any time on the east side of the street. Parking is allowed at times on the west side of the street.Please don't be discouraged-there's usually enough parking available most of the time in the areas listed above.
