The Awakening of Ancient Memories with Dena Merriam & Sister Jenna

During her years of meditation, many vivid memories of past births began to emerge for Dena Merriam, revealing an intricate and subtle pattern of cause and effect, the law of karmic unfolding. These memories became the subject of her books. The purpose of sharing these intimate stories was to help people see the long arch of their life, whether they retain memories or not, to help overcome fear and anxiety about death, to understand more fully the workings of cause and effect and to know that each one of us, moment to moment, is creating the blueprint for our future.

Dena Merriam is an author, storyteller, and the Founder and Convener of the Global Peace Initiative of Women, bringing spiritual resources to address critical global challenges, such as conflict, social justice, and ecological scarring of the earth. Over the years she has worked to bring greater gender balance and balance between the Abrahamic and Dharma-based religious traditions for a more inclusive interfaith movement.

Dena is the author of several books including her new release, "When the Bright Moon Rises: The Awakening of Ancient Memories."
