Sacramento Politics and Philosophy Group

Many people are expressing a deep yearning – not just for better human connections but for new ways to respond to what's happening in our world right now. We want to address the complexity we see in our communities and political systems, sensing that conventional approaches aren't enough anymore.

When we create relationally safe spaces and become more trusting of one another, we uncover deeper visions that we cannot generate alone. That is why I am forming a small gathering of people curious about working at a different level – exploring what it means to bring the Good, the True, and the Beautiful (Plato) into how we engage with one another during these challenging times.

There are people from all different beliefs who aren't afraid to speak about love, wisdom, and courage as actual forces for change. These people honor both the rational mind and the longing of our hearts, recognizing the delightful power of collective wisdom.

This requires listening to others at a level that goes beyond concepts and personalities to touch something more fundamental in each other. In doing so, we discover new insights and pathways toward greater social and political health.

I won't sugarcoat this – it can be challenging work. When people gather with this much openness and intention, things surface: cynicism, fear, old wounds. But real transformation happens through love, not around it.

This is for people who want to learn how to sit with complexity and still choose love. People who can hold both the heartbreak of our current moment and the reality that something new is emerging. For those who are ready, this can offer a way to live out your truth and help deliver what our world needs most right now.

Let's gather as curious, open, and imaginative people ready to participate in something both ancient and utterly new. Trust what's stirring in your heart – it may be exactly what the world needs.
