"***You are not a drop in the ocean, you are the entire ocean in a drop.***" — Rumi

This final gathering of the year invites us into the mystery of **Oneness** -the experience of being woven into a **greater whole**. To sense the hidden threads of **interconnection**: drinking the cloud in the tea, touching the body of a tree in the pencil, tasting the sunshine in an apple. To travel beyond the surface of appearances, into the **subtle space** where all things **unite**.

We will reflect on how artists, poets, and thinkers have sought to give form to this **unity**, offering visions that dissolve the boundaries between self and world. Our path will lead from the first gestures of **prehistoric cave paintings** to the swirling skies of **Vincent van Gogh**, the spiritual abstractions of **Hilma af Klint**, the ephemeral land art of **Andy Goldsworthy**; from the poetry of **Walt Whitman**, the reflections of **Stefan Zweig** and **Knut Hamsun**, to the Zen teachings of **Shunryu Suzuki**; and from the music of **Gustav Mahler** to the luminous stillness of **Arvo Pärt**. Flowing in this boundless river, we will listen again to the **poetry of Rumi**, where the soul remembers its belonging.

We will close our cycle with a **Oneness meditation**, a **shamanic initiation practice** to touch the deep layers of **interconnectedness**. This guided meditation will invite us to rest in awareness, to open the heart to the mystery of **interbeing**, and to celebrate the wonder of **belonging** -to each other, to creativity, and to the one world we share.

***"For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you."*** *— Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass.*
