The August event: Group Discussion: Our Personal Spiritual Journey
Convenor: Grahame Crookham
About the Presentation
Our August event will provide an opportunity for a group discussion of “Our Personal Spiritual Journey”. Most TS members have been on a spiritual journey with many twists and turns; and the occasional dead-ends. In this group discussion we hope to share our personal experiences, insights, values and aspirations together with friends and public for mutual benefit.
Topics for discussion may include personal experience, connection to something greater, the meaning and purpose of life, core values and principles, relationships and community, practices and rituals.
By pondering such deep questions, may we gain a better understanding of our values, beliefs and motivations; promoting greater self-acceptance and authenticity and a deeper connection with something larger than oneself.
