Pop-up event for ALL patrons: PEACE (AND WAR) - a live streaming lecture and discussion. Wednesday March 2 (Patreon)

Friends,

I'm sure many of you have had a bit on your minds the past week, particularly in terms of peace and conflict,

What is it that's happening in the world? How do we come to terms with it, our fear of it, our anger and ignorance, our passions and pity?

Let's talk about it.

Join me and your fellow patrons on Ash Wednesday, March 3, 2022, at 5:30 Dublin time (9:30PST/12:30EST), for a consideration of the state of things, and for discussion.

This event is for all patreon patrons at all levels. But please do not share the link; I'd like to keep this in-community. The event will not be recorded (and I ask that you don't record it, either), but of course, please do carry your thoughts and whatever inspired you during the event into further conversations with others.

Remember: we work through the principle of RESONANCE. That means when we talk about the topic and with each other, we say what is interesting to us, or what something makes us think, what directions it sends us in. We don't talk about what we disagree with, either with each other. This isn't to get you to agree with everything, but instead to see what productive conversations are generated from a restriction that involves perpetually keeping curiosity and good will in the conversation. In other words, we will practice a form of peace as we speak.

Also please do follow the urge to contribute if you have it and to interact with what the community members say, not only me; in other words, talk with and to everyone in the room.

If it helps to set the feeling, please read this short post on Russia/Ukraine. Reading it is of course not mandatory for joining us.

See you soon.

Peace,
Love.
