On Loneliness and Aloneness Weekend Retreat April 1 - 3 In this dialogue weekend, participants will share an inquiry into loneliness and aloneness. Together in a shared space, we will look at our own loneliness and where it comes from, and all the ways we escape from it. When we truly get in touch with our sense of isolation, perhaps we might discover what Krishnamurti talks about as aloneness, the realization that we are all one. This weekend program will consist of inquiry through dialogue, walks in nature, delicious vegetarian meals, as well as alone time. |

Is God an Invention of Thought? New Video The Immeasurable Humanity is split into different religions and beliefsâeach with their own authority to follow, their own methods, systems, and rules. It makes one wonder... what is religion and who is God? One can see how this division is enforced in religions and organizations in which there are those "who know" and those "who don't know," always requiring authority or interpreters in order to gain so-called salvation or liberation. What would it mean to inquire about all of this? Is it possible to inquire without authority, fear, or pleasure? |
