ECKANKAR GROUP FORMING IN AREA

A group to introduce the New Age religion, Eckankar, is being formed for New River Valley residents. Alfred Hala of Floyd may be called at 789-7287.

Materials supplied by the religious group based in Minneapolis, Minn., describe it as "a spiritual path to God" that may be used to enrich an individual's religious life or "become your religion for the New Age."

Hala said an introductory seminar on dreams and "soul travel" will be the first offering.

The local Eckankar group will meet each Thursday, 7:30-9 p.m., at the Blacksburg branch library at 400 Draper Road. Thursday's topic is "Explore Your Universe of Dreams."
