In today’s fast-paced world, filled with stimulation and countless pleasures, we can feel scattered, disconnected and unsure of what truly matters. Even with comforts, conveniences, and accomplishments, lasting happiness, deep calm and genuine fulfillment often feel just out of reach. And life’s challenges—whether expected or sudden—frequently leave us feeling off balance.
From time to time, deeper questions rise to the surface of our awareness—prompted by that usually quiet voice within:
- Who am I—beyond body, mind, and emotions?
- Do things happen for a reason? Do I have a purpose?
- Is lasting happiness possible? If yes, how can I find it?
- What does it mean to live a good and meaningful life?
- Can humanity be ONE despite our differences?
- How can I contribute to building a better future—for myself and others?
These questions aren’t new—they’re timeless and essential. Ancient philosophers from East and West have explored them deeply and offered practical wisdom that can guide us toward personal and collective transformation—even today!
Join us to discover the powerful path of Applied Philosophy—gain new perspectives and practical tools to:
- Navigate life's challenges with strength, joy and serenity
- Better understand yourself, others, and the world we live in
- Encounter the laws of life, its meaning, and our role as human beings
- Discover how we can all participate in building a new and better society
- And much more!
Through a thought-provoking talk and engaging group discussions, you’ll leave with insights and takeaways to help you live more consciously and meaningfully. Meet like-hearted and like-minded seekers, and take your first step on this adventurous path!
No prior experience with philosophy is needed—just bring your questions and an open heart and mind.
We look forward to seeing you!
