What we’re about
Welcome to the Gold Coast Spiritual Community!
This group is a place for spiritually conscious people to come together in spiritually strengthening events and fun connection. Connection is a basic human need that is essential as things like food, water and shelter to our overall health and well being. Connection becomes even more important when on a spiritual path. In Sacred intention, we are able to nurture each other on our journey back to Wholeness. Whether you are just curious about spirituality or have been practising awareness for years, this group is an offering to you.
We offer Meetups such as healthful lunches, sharing circles, picnics and more. All events are an opportunity to get to know others who likely feel similarly to you in life. At the same time, there are many differences that make each of us unique and able to learn and grow from one another.
When we attend spiritually orientated meetups, events, workshops etc we often have a desire to meet and develop friendship with those who will help us heal, have fun or mostly: experience acceptance. If we are honest in our heart, this is often what is in the background of many of our minds as motivation for attending. And so in acknowledgement of this truth, you are deeply encouraged to believe that authentic connection is possible here, and be your truest self. When we connect from our Heart, we are able to facilitate the kind of connections that we truly need and desire.
Upon this invitation to bravely step forward as one's most Heart centred self, we must all then also realise the clear necessity to create a positive and emotionally safe dynamic within our community. Gold Coast Spiritual Community is a safe and judgement free space. Any behaviour or actions that contradict these Sacred intentions will not be tolerated.
We hope to see you at our next Meetup! Thank you for joining us!
Love, Troy Michael Star

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Awakening , Non duality, Oneness of life.Hippocrates Health Centre of Australia , Gold Coast
This will be a guided session for those interested in exploring, in direct experience, the deeper essence of who they really are, to help ease suffering or discomfort in daily life.
Who are you at the source, prior to concepts? This identification is the source of much of our confusion, contraction, need for control and suffering.
We will start with a simple guided meditation to accept sensation of the body and activity of the mind, in a non-judgmental acceptance.
What is awakening? Self-inquiry, non-duality, consciousness, acceptance of life expressing as it is. This can effortlessly free up energy for life to flow more creatively and powerfully. Let's kindly explore the true nature of the self or “I”, as the “doer” of life from which many thoughts and emotions, and much of our suffering, seems to emanate.
There is no encouragement or criticism of any beliefs here, (non sectarian), but a reminder to look at what is “your” direct experience without concepts, stories, or beliefs, as it is.
Where do my thoughts come from? Am I my thoughts? Am I aware of thoughts? Who is aware?
If any of this resonates, or even if it sounds interesting, confusing or just weird, come along and chat, question,discuss or sit and observe.
We can learn from each other through interaction. Why not relax, and just allow open curiosity to look what is being experienced from a different perspective. “You” might feel different. That's life!
Stay at the end for a social chat with like minded people.
There are chairs provided. If you wish to bring a cushion to sit on the floor, feel free. Perhaps also bring water and any other personal needs.
Toilet facilities available.
