You will only need a device that has a web browser (Google Chrome, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, etc…) on it to sign up for a Science of Mind course. As there is no “app” for InFellowship (our CSLDallas Community Portal) we strongly encourage course attendees to use a PC, Mac, or at minimum a tablet or large smartphone, as navigating the portal can be difficult on smaller screens.  Follow the steps below or watch video for instructions on how to register.

Steps to Register:

1. Visit our website at csldallas.org and use either the search icon (magnifying glass) in the top right to find a specific class you’ve heard about, or click on “Education” in the top menu and scroll down and click on the image “Spirituality/Meditation/Science of Mind”.
2. Scroll down and choose a Level 1, 2, or 3 course.  While level one and two courses can be taken out of order, we encourage students to try to start with Level 1 before proceeding to Level 2.  And, keep in mind that certain courses have prerequisites such as Level 3 Inward Journey.
3. Once you’ve chosen your course, you will be directed to the respective webpage for that course where you will find a brief description, course length, schedule, instructor name, tuition and books required and a “Register” button.
4. Click “Register Now” and you will be redirected to the CSLDallas Community Portal (InFellowship).
5. Fill out the form with your full name, email and phone number (required) and physical address if we do not already have it (optional).
6. There is a brief explanation of “Class Discounts” as well as “Course Price & Refund Policy”.
7. Select the “Tuition” radio button at the bottom (enter a discount code in the “Discount Code” field that appears if you have one).
8. Enter Billing Information and click “Submit”.
9. You will receive a confirmation email with course details and a link to the CSLDallas Community Portal (InFellowship).  If you have not already done so, please go there to Register for an Account and be sure to use the same email address that you used to sign up for the course.  All course materials are located in the dashboard for the respective courses in InFellowship. For help on navigating the Community Portal InFellowship, look for the video or instructions here on that topic. 
10. If you are having issues entering a course, please contact our tech support team by emailing info@csldallas.org.

1. Visit our Silent Auction page – Open June 1 to June 30 This will allow you to bid on seats at the various events.

Note: You do NOT need to check this to receive updates about winning or losing bids; those notifications are handled separately.

6. Choose whether to appear anonymous If you wish, select the “Appear Anonymous” button to keep your name hidden.
7. Click “Complete Registration”

Here you will be able to see: – Starting Price – Bid Increment – Buy It Now Price – Fair Market Value (used for tax purposes) – Bid History (total bids and current high bid) – Event Description (Host, Date/Time, Location) – Spots Available (i.e., seats that can be bid on) For private events, only the city and ZIP code will be listed until the bid is won. Full address details will then be shared with winners.

1. Make sure that you are on the correct page on social media. 
   • Facebook Live: https://www.facebook.com/CSLDallas
   • YouTube Live: https://www.youtube.com/csldallas
   • You can find it on our Website’s Homepage on Sunday mornings before our Sunday Celebration starts: https://csldallas.org/
2. There’s also the chance that our livestream may be experiencing technical difficulties; check back in a few minutes or try refreshing your screen. 

1. Check the audio settings on your device. For things such as cellphones, you may want to use headphones. 
2. Check your internet connection, if you are in an area that has bad reception this will affect your experience. 
3. Try changing the website you are viewing it from. You may want to switch from Youtube to Facebook to view the livestream (if available). 
4. Try changing your device. Using your phone will give you a much different experience rather than using your TV to view a livestream 
5. Post questions or comments in the chat (or comments) section of the broadcast. We are monitoring this so often we can start a side discussion or bring it to the attention of the presenter. 
6. We are always growing into our best selves and sometimes we experience technical issues, we want to hear your technical feedback, however texting or calling staff directly will not help. Usually, we do not have our phones on us during a livestream. You can post it in the comments of the livestream or the best practice is to email info@csldallas.org to tell us what the issue is for ongoing issues that do not become resolved during the time of the broadcast. 
7. Make sure you are getting our weekly emails. We always put the latest information within our weekly emails. If you are not seeing these, make sure to check your spam folder. The emails will be coming from CSLDallas. If you still do not see them there you can sign up for our weekly emails by going to CSLDallas.org and navigate to the bottom of the home page, on the left-hand side on the very bottom of the page you will see the “sign up for newsletter” section. If you are having issues, please send an email to info@csldallas.org and someone will respond to help
