Our gatherings include silent meditation, mutual gazing meditation, and conscious sharing in a safe container that facilitates deep trust. W …

Following the methods and oral tradition of Gurdjieff, this meetup is an opportunity for those interested in life’s essential questions to exchange. “In speaking of evolution it is necessary to understand from the outset that no mechanical evolution is possible. The evolution of man is the evolution of his consciousness.” “The ideas are a summons, a summons towards another world, a call from one who knows and who is able to show us the way." Who was Gurdjieff? Georgi Ivanovich Gurdjieff (c.a. …

PURPOSE: Share our spirituality and spiritual experience(s), discuss our paths and investigate the ideas and techniques of all (worthwhile) spiritualities and philosophies. Everyone has a spark of God/ the Source/ One etc (whatever finite word we want to call It) in them, to the extent they don’t loose or "sell" their soul.  If we listen to this Spark, it will lead us on our own unique, individual, wonderful and magical path back to the Source.

Do you love to just get so into taking photos you loose tra …

Humanism is a godless philosophy based on reason and compassion. Humanists believe that our morality is based on the well being of conscious creatures, and that no higher power needs to be appeased. Here in Rhode Island, where the Catholic Church holds such sway and power that we can't pass a marriage equality bill or even remove a prayer from our schools without going to court, it's important to remember our founder Roger Williams, the man who first established a part of this world where church …
