Is Karma Mandatory?
with Manda Patel – Co-ordinator of the Global Retreat Centre
If Karma is the eternal spiritual law of cause and effect, then does that mean I am destined to pay for whatever it is that I’ve done in the past? Is there any way out, or am I stuck?
Tonight Sister Manda gives us cause for great hope and happiness as we find out that the past truly can be the past and that, whatever our future holds, we can dispense with all future suffering.

Is Death Compulsory?
with Mike George
– Consultant and trainer, spiritual teacher and author of
best-selling books on relaxation and enlightenment.
While some schools of thought say death is an absolute ending, other spiritual philosophies say it's just a transition to a new beginning.

Tonight Mike George takes a sharp-eyed look at this very personal and sensitive subject.
