**Tickets (SOLD OUT):** https://events.humanitix.com/sapphic-cocktail-party Thanks to our ongoing collaboration with [Hail Lilith](https://www.instagram.com/haillilithbar/), we're able to continue offering new experiences we think you'll love. This time we're doing something extra special for our sapphic friends. **This event is designed for women who love women.** Please join us for a classy evening of cocktails, delicious food, and feminine energy. Your ticket includes a cocktail on arrival, a shared grazing platter a little later in the afternoon, and your choice of a burger from a set menu around dinner time. Jenny, your host, will be there to greet you and make introductions throughout the night. This event does not follow our typical structured format and is more "free form", but still aims to provide an opportunity for strangers to connect and become friends... or even more if the vibes are right. LGBT+ Social Hub Melbourne aims to be a safe and inclusive space for everyone; bullying, harassment and discrimination will not be tolerated.

Please join us this Sunday as we discuss how do we know what is true. **We will meet at the Queensberry Hotel, 593 Swanston Street, Carlton at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp.** **We kindly ask attendees to pay $5 to attend to help with MeetUp costs & venue costs. This is not mandatory, but if you are a regular member it would be appreciated. Any extra moneys will go towards buying food and drinks for the table. The venue also expects us to spend money as a group, so grateful if everyone could buy a drink from the venue.** If the Queensberry is shut, we will still meet there and move to a nearby pub or the park at about 2:20pm. There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo, in the spirit of learning and friendly debate, so please feel free to challenge assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions challenged. This event is also posted in the Philosophy Circle group. Find below some questions or topics to consider, however these are free-ranging events and the below serve as a springboard for the discussion: * What is true belief? Does it require a good method? * Truth vs justification * Sources of belief - empiricism, reason, testimony, intuition * Gettier problems * Bias and distortion - confirmation bias, motivated reasoning, social identity effects * Do people using good methods converge on the truth? * Good principles for forming beliefs in real life. Hope to see you there!

**Who We are..... 🤝** Our journey to bring people together began in January of 2022. The group was started with a simple intention to gather and meet some likeminded people - connecting through the powerful act of meditation and sharing our genuine selves while sitting in a circle that represents equality, harmony and wholeness( *we believe everyone in the circle is a teacher and a student at the same time)*. And over the last 4 years of consistently coming together, we have fostered a beautiful, loving, dependable community where members from all walks of life have experienced a sacred space to sit in silence together and meditate, share their authentic selves, give presence to others and forge meaningful and long lasting connections. The Meditations are guided by Sana(co-founder and host), who is a Trained and certified meditation teacher by the Meditation Association of Australia, and has been guiding meditations for 3+ years in corporate and community settings. ✨ **Do you wish to....** * Experience a simple yet powerful meditation and breathing practice to find calm, relaxation and clarity * Connect with like-minded people in your local community and foster meaningful connections * Meet others who are passionate about growing, uplifting themselves, and supporting others * Share insights from your personal journey (or simply listen and learn) Or maybe you just want to... ☮️ **Spend your Sunday evening in a peaceful, zen space and meet new people? Bring a friend (or two!) and let’s connect.** **What’s on the evening’s flow?** * **Open meet & greet** – connect and settle in * **5 min guided meditation** to land into the space and connect within * **Sharing circle** (totally optional!) – share your thoughts or simply listen * **20-30 min guided meditation** – for relaxation and deeper connection **Where?** 📍 **250 George St, Fitzroy VIC 3065** Enter through the church gates. You’ll see a small garden on the left and stairs on the right leading up to the **Dance of Life Yoga Studio (first door on your right upstairs).** **What to bring?** * **Donation:** A contribution of **$10 or more is recommended**. Your donations directly help us cover venue, meetup membership and other costs, provide valuable resources, and keep this meditation community alive and growing. * **Warm jumper/jacket** (just in case!) * **Water** * **Any books/resources/inspiration you’d love to share** **Important Notes:** * Spaces are **limited**, so if you can’t make it, please update your RSVP to “Not going” or send us a quick message. * **No-show policy:** To keep it fair for everyone, repeat no-shows without notice may not be able to RSVP in the future. * Attendees under 18 must have a guardian present. **Everyone is welcome!** All ages (with guardians for under 18), backgrounds, genders, and experiences – no meditation experience needed.

**Discover the making of a beauty empire with our April book club pick** Our April book club explores the untold story behind Glossier, the millennial beauty brand that redefined the industry. Journalist Marisa Meltzer takes readers inside Emily Weiss's meteoric journey from beauty blogger to billion-dollar founder, revealing the ambition, innovation, and ultimately the cracks that emerged in building a cult brand. **About the book** In this book, Meltzer chronicles how Weiss transformed her blog Into The Gloss into Glossier, a beauty empire that championed "skin first, makeup second" and turned customers into devoted fans. Through extensive reporting and insider access, the book exposes the reality behind the Instagram-perfect facade—from the company's stratospheric growth to internal tensions, workplace culture challenges, and the pressures of venture capital expectations. **What you'll gain** * An inside look at how Weiss built a brand by listening to customers and leveraging social media in revolutionary ways * The untold story of what happens when a founder's vision collides with the demands of Silicon Valley investors and rapid scaling * Real insights into the beauty industry's transformation and the costs of building a "cool girl" empire in the age of Instagram Purchase links: [[Glossy: Ambition, Beauty, and the Inside Story of Emily Weiss's Glossier](https://www.booktopia.com.au/glossy-marisa-meltzer/book/9781668082898.html?source=pla&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22221396176&gbraid=0AAAAA-Ia9hNgr8wxVNHyuzEYFNw-qjB6I&gclid=CjwKCAiAkbbMBhB2EiwANbxtbXOIp2QmHzjR3na1WXdCaJ_jN3Yk5muqreQVq2lvjEyHTUCBb21fyhoCqz8QAvD_BwE)] **Please note that this is a paid event to help cover the cost of meetup fees.

**Dying Consciously** \- it's not something most of us think about very much\. But some ancient teachings tell us that our state of consciousness at the time of death will determine the conditions of *our next destination*. And this idea is indeed supported by *some parapsychological evidence*. **In this unique interactive session,** Candace Ohanessian will walk us through the many considerations and questions one needs to align this most important life-event with our innermost values and wishes. **Candace will introduce us** to the key foundational concepts, parapsychological aspects of dying, and then the practical foundations of a preferred (conscious) death. She'll then cover in depth what conscious dying is all about, how to be in a supporting role with others who may be dying, and then finishing with some closing reflections and discussion. Certainly **a thought-provoking and eye-opening** discussion, and one you rarely get the opportunity to explore in a safe space with an experienced expert in the field. When we face up to our greatest fears, we become empowered. **About Candace:** * End-of-life doula, funeral celebrant, and registered funeral provider * Believes that preparing for death is a most life-affirming achievement * 20+ years’ experience with people in transition - addiction recovery, end-of-life planning and care, and families in grief. * Helps people plan for and have their preferred death * Helps families embrace and support the dying person and each other, optimally * Cert IV in Doula Studies, BA in Human Development, MSc in Consciousness, Spirituality and Transpersonal Psychology. * Member of [Dying With Dignity Victoria ](https://www.dwdv.org.au/)and [Palliative Care ](https://www.pallcarevic.asn.au/)Australia, * Committee member of [Natural Death Advocacy Network](http://ndan.com.au/) * Board of Directors for the end-of-life doula peak body “HELD” **Post-Event Social Lunch Hangout (12.45 - 1.45pm)** Afterwards, you are invited to lunch with everyone at Flora Restaurant (5min walk from the venue) **PLEASE NOTE:** * **11AM Start -** Please be considerate and arrive early. * **$10 Cover Charge:** Room hire, facilities, and running costs.

We encourage our members to support anime artists and producers by purchasing their movies or any full series should they wish to watch the endings. **Some insight for newer members:** It's a natural process to feel a little anxious attending a large event you have never experienced before. During sign ins our hosting team will naturally be busy however our meet & greet volunteers will do their best to say 'Hello' to everyone and perhaps connect you to others. If for some reason this does not happen (because it's really busy), don't fret! Our ice breaker games are designed to help everyone bond over a shared experience. You should expect adults having fun and letting lose whilst being challenged to push some comfort zones which we invite you to do as well! The games are suppose to be silly to help people come out of comfort zones and get to know someone new. We will then take a break to watch anime and we really do encourage you to stay for games after dinner which is when our team gets a breather and a good chance to get to know our newer members better in a quieter setting!

I spent 23 years chasing enlightenment and fell into numerous spiritual traps which kept me running in circles for years. If you're walking the path, you'll meet these traps too. The ego can subtly hijack the desire for spiritual awakening. It masks itself as progress to maintain control. In this session we will go deeper into the 4 most dangerous traps you will encounter which can keep you stuck for years. When these traps are seen, not discussed but actually seen, you can finally encounter the truth you have been longing for. **Schedule** * Talk by Rajiv followed by open Q&A * Guided Meditation * Spiritual networking. Make friends with others on the spiritual path **About Rajiv** Rajiv dedicated years of his life seeking enlightenment. His pursuit for truth, reality, emptiness and self-discovery took him through the profound depths of mysticism. He meditated 14 hours a day, stayed with monks, lived in the Himalayan caves, learned from wise sages and researched every major spiritual system, including Zen, Non-Duality, Yoga, Buddhism etc. Then one momentous morning in 2005, he experienced his first shift into higher states of consciousness, an inner spiritual awakening. This was followed by days of infinite ecstasy and bliss. Finally, the years of seeking culminated and he realised his own true nature. He now shares his deep insights to help seekers progress on the path of awakening & meditation. His approach is secular, based on personal experience. You can read about his spiritual journey here — [https://innerspiritualawakening.com/rajiv-agarwal/my-journey/](https://innerspiritualawakening.com/rajiv-agarwal/my-journey/) **Venue** Kathleen Syme Library 251 Faraday Street, Carlton, VIC We will be in Multipurpose Room 1. We may take some photos to capture the moment. If you prefer not to be photographed, please let the organiser know at any time. This event is free and open to all adult seekers (18+).
