What’s happening this Friday:
4:00 pm–6:00 pm: Open House & Individual Spiritual Study
Feel free to stop by and visit. Hosts are available to answer questions, orient you to ECK books or materials, and give you a tour of our home in NYC. If you’re looking for a quiet moment to do a spiritual exercise, read a book, or maybe even meet with a friend, this is a great time to visit. It’s also a great time to learn more about Eckankar if you’ve got questions!
7:00 pm–8:15 pm: “Meet the Mahanta” – Spiritual Discussion
Harold Klemp, the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master from October 22, 1981–October 21, 2025, will have announced his successor—the next MAHANTA, the Living ECK Master—at the ECK Worldwide Soul Adventure Seminar, on Saturday evening, October 25. In our event this evening, we’ll discuss the event and its significance to the ECK Community and the world. The last occasion of succession occurred forty-four years ago when Harold Kelmp’s term as the spiritual leader of ECKANKAR began.
The change in spiritual leadership is always a step forward for the consciousness of the worlds. The role of the Living ECK Master has always been to awaken the love for the divine things already within the human heart.
All are welcome to come and discuss this historic event of the announcement of the 974th Living ECK Master.
8:15 pm–9:30 pm: Fellowship
Fellowship is your chance to meet with old friends, meet new ones, share stories, and laugh a lot. Sometimes these spontaneous moments are where the deepest connections and conversations happen. We might even have food too!
We look forward to seeing you at the ECK Center on Friday!
