Special Event: Founder’s Day Celebration

Paul Twitchell introduced the sacred teachings of Eᴄᴋᴀɴᴋᴀʀ to the modern world in the mid-1960s.

His mission was to gather the scattered fragments of truth and restore them via the body of teachings now known as Eᴄᴋᴀɴᴋᴀʀ. Paul ventured into a wide range of spiritual traditions under different teachers. He separated the golden threads of wisdom from their cultural trappings.

A spirited nonconformist, Paul called himself a Cliff Hanger, an individual who lives in a high state of spiritual freedom and self-responsibility. Yet years came and went before his life-changing experience of God-Realization in 1957. In October 1965, he became the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master.

Eᴄᴋᴀɴᴋᴀʀ grew from humble beginnings as Paul held workshops, gave lectures, and wrote discourses for spiritual students. At the time of Paul Twitchell’s passing in 1971, Eᴄᴋᴀɴᴋᴀʀ had become a worldwide spiritual path and organization serving seekers all around the world.

This ECK Found’s Day event is a special ECK celebration that brings the community together to remember and honor Paul Twitchell. It is a joyous time to come together in fellowship and love. Please join us in remembering the founding of Eckankar. Potluck lunch items or deserts are welcome.

This Founder’s Day Celebration will be happening in Mukilteo. Please contact Jackie or Paul Finch at snohomish@eckwa.org for more information.
