Long Before Brian Weiss wrote about
reincarnation in 1988, or Barbara Brennan wrote about energy
healing in 1988, a group of like-minded individuals on Long
Island had already been meeting for several years sharing
seemingly fantastical experiences they could not explain and to
ponder many metaphysical phenomenon that seem almost commonplace
today.
It all began simply enough, in 1983, when
Co-Founder Elaine Resnik
did a lecture on ESP, Dreams and Edgar Cayce. To her surprise,
it seemed that many other people thirsted for such knowledge. In
the early days, the small group gathered in a private home in
Northport to discuss one members experience with extra sensory
perception or to listen to another reveal encounters with the
angelic realm. Astrology and tarot were among other early
subjects discussed as the small group grew.
After two years, a move to a larger home in Plainview was

tried to meet the need for a larger
meeting space and then onto the Plainview Library where as many
as 85 people attended meetings. By word of mouth, the news
spread about this informal group of new and old friends who
gathered regularly to learn and explore. Finally in 1986 the
group moved into its current location at Levittown Hall in
Hicksville and many more learned about a special place, with a
comfortable and welcoming atmosphere, where people could come to
share their ideas and share their apprehensions...to explore the
future and develop themselves. Out of this need for community,
this longing for connectedness, an organization and a Long
Island institution evolved.
On
July 23, 2005 the Eyes of Learning, Inc. will celebrates its
22nd birthday as the most highly respected metaphysical,
holistic and spiritual teaching and learning center on Long
Island. The Eyes of Learning is dedicated to providing
members, and the public at large, a broad-based exposure |
to a
variety of philosophies. It does this by offering quality
instruction in a diverse base of subjects being very careful not
to endorse any one belief over another.
This is demonstrated by the kinds of lecture topics that have
been offered over the years. Some of the most popular topics
have included such favorites as Feng Shui, ESP, UFO's,
reincarnation, and angels. Other great subjects have included
astral travel, tarot, aromatherapy, astrology, channeling, reiki,
crystals, alternative healing, mediumship, spirit guides,
numerology, mental telepathy, meditation, primordial sound, tai
chi, and much more! Most speakers are tape recorded, so if you
missed an event for any reason, you can purchase audiocassettes
at a later time.
While the schedule each month may vary slightly due to space
availability, the organization typically offers four
