SUMMARY:Open Circle Sebastopol Sangha ~ The Absolute
DESCRIPTION:This free meeting will include meditation\, and conversation in small groups.  \nThe theme is “The Absolute”.  In the journey of nondual awareness\, the absolute is a place of peace\, emptiness\, and home.  Adyashanti  has described it as “a kind of emptiness in the center of our being”. [1]  For Hameed Ali it’s “the absence of any basis for self or personality…a  spontaneity…to be an instrument of the absolute\, allowing the absolute to behold and experience its own creation\, its own display of  its hidden treasures”. [2]  Sri Aurobindo said the absolute or “nirvana” is “a condition above and without thought\, unstained by any mental or vital movement;  there was no ego\, no real world – only when one looked through the immobile senses\, something perceived or born upon its sheer silence a world of empty forms\, materialized shadows without true substance.”  [3]\nIf we’re quiet enough\, we can access it\, through a breath\, or the mind.  It’s a vacation from the ups & downs of consciousness\, to a place of wholeness\, ground and emptiness.  \nTo join the meeting\, click here. \nIf you are having trouble with the link\, enter the following URL into your web browser:\nhttps://zoom.us/j/97498774773
