*Canvas & Contemplation: Deep Reflections Through Paintings* **Fee:** AED 30 **Duration:** 2 hours **Format:** Two paintings, one per hour — deep group discussion follows each What happens when philosophy meets paint and canvas? Welcome to **Canvas & Contemplation: Deep Reflections Through Paintings**, a unique gathering where we explore the profound connection between visual art and the human experience. Each session, we’ll sit with two powerful artworks — not to critique them like art historians, but to let them speak to our minds and souls. You'll be surprised by the range of interpretations one painting can evoke — where one person sees despair, another may find hope; where one sees chaos, another finds divine order. This is a space for meaningful, respectful conversation that opens us up to new perspectives and helps us see more — in the art, and in ourselves. Whether you're a philosopher at heart, an artist in spirit, or simply curious about how we see and feel, this event offers a space to slow down, look deeply, and think together. **Come with an open mind, leave with new eyes.** **Whatsapp link**: https://chat.whatsapp.com/FytQQgS85I61vS6nkduLm5

**WHY IS IT GOOD TO CHANT OM ON THE FULL MOON** Usually, emotions are heightened and energy levels rise during the full moon. It is important to channel this energy into a constructive channel so that it helps us, and does not throw us out of balance. One of the simplest and most effective practices recommended during the full moon is the group practice of OM Chanting. OM Chanting is the yoga of sound, an ancient group practice that helps to raise the vibrations of each person and the planet as a whole, to bring it into a state of harmony. ***“The moon has a great influence on the body. That is why you can see how during the full moon some people become hysterical, because the full moon affects the water level in the body. Some people cannot cope with this. But if you use this energy, transform it and channel it into a peaceful channel, it creates balance. Then the moon has a calming effect, the moon carries the vibration of peace. That is why when you practice OM Chanting during the full moon, it is different from practicing on any other day.”*** — Paramahamsa Vishwananda **WHAT IS OM CHANTING?** OM Chanting is a group practice, one of the techniques of Atma Kriya Yoga, that uses the transformational power of OM to activate the self-healing potential of the participants. **BENEFITS OF OM CHANTING:** • Activates self-healing • Transforms negativity into positive energy • Calms the mind • Helps to cultivate more joy, love and peace for the world • Purifies the environment through the OM vibration To preserve the energetic integrity of the circle, once chanting has started, participants arriving after the start time will be asked to sit on the outside of the circle. If you are running late, please let the OM Chanting Organiser know – if it is only a few minutes, they might be able to wait for you. **HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?** 50 AED Payment can be made in cash on place or online using link: [https://business.mamopay.com/pay/thepathofgracesports-2cf65f7dd685](https://business.mamopay.com/pay/thepathofgracesports-2cf65f7dd685) **BRING WITH YOU** * Bottle of water * Contribution (50 dirham) * A small vegetarian snack to share **LOCATION** Soul Side Wellness JLT Dubai Level 26 - room 2603 https://maps.app.goo.gl/uY43C5WHdF8z7sRX6 **REGISTRATION LINK** [https://forms.gle/PAtqMRfKc9rjvvU18](https://forms.gle/PAtqMRfKc9rjvvU18) This May is a very special month, as it contains two full moons. It is also the sacred astrological month of Purushottama, which occurs only once every three years. This period is considered especially auspicious and is said to greatly multiply the benefits of spiritual practices. For this special occasion, we have decided to hold a special Full Moon OM Chanting and Kirtan session. **PROGRAM** 6:30 PM — Gathering & welcome drink 6:45 PM — OM Chanting + meditation 7:45 PM — Kirtan **IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING FINDING THE VENUE, PLEASE JOIN OUR WHATSAPP GROUP:** https://chat.whatsapp.com/HPu7ZPoaANWLsDIcKCSqbv

**Table Talk: Table Hop** **When:** This Saturday at 7:00 PM **Where:** Mr Toad's Jaddaf **The Vibe** This is our very first event, and we are kicking off the Table Talk Collection! No rigid agendas, no awkward networking, and absolutely no small talk. This is a casual space designed to spark interesting conversations, share your ideas and make some friends! **How it Works** * Round 1 (The Pair-Up): We start 1-on-1. You’ll sit down with one other person for a quick, fast-paced chat. Every time the topic changes, you'll mix and find a new partner. * Round 2 (The Table Mix): We scale up. You’ll join a larger group at a table to dive into deeper, open discussions and bounce ideas off multiple perspectives. * Round 3 (The Game): We wrap up the night with a fun, group-based game. We change this game every single week to keep things fresh! Just bring yourself, your favorite random shower thoughts, and a curiosity for what everyone else is going to say!

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.
