This Meeting Location: (Foundation Room - 2nd floor).

Topic: Ground of Being

Objective: Solve the existential riddle (and big problem) of life and death.
Direction: Inquire into the core of being.

Sayings from The Gospel of Thomas cited in “A Jesus for Our Time” by Douglas Harding:

  • Jesus said: Many stand around the well, but there is no one to go down into it.
  • We come from the Light, from the place where the Light comes into existence through itself alone.
  • He who knows everything except himself, lacks everything

We meet on alternate Saturdays (occasionally with an extra week between), and since 2013 all meetings were at the Main Alachua County Library ... until 2025. The library system allows us to reserve one meeting room each month in advance, then not until the day of any other meetings. So far this year we haven't been able to reserve rooms in advance at the main library.

We will include locations reserved in advance on these meeting blurbs. For other meetings, we will message members who accept messages as soon on the meeting day as we've been able to reserve a location.

At meetings at the main library, check with the information desk on the 2nd floor for the exact meeting room location.
