### Thursday Evening Discussion Group **In\-Person \| Starts at 8:00 PM \(Doors open at 7:30 PM\) \| Drop\-In** **Starting material:** *[Network of Thought](https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/Network-of-Thought-Krishnamurti-ebook.pdf)* by **Jiddu Krishnamurti** This weekly discussion group offers a reflective and open space to explore themes of **mysticism, spirituality, and inner transformation** through selected writings and talks by Jiddu Krishnamurti, Annie Besant, Alice Bailey, and other thinkers whose work invites deep **inquiry into consciousness, freedom, truth**, and **the nature of self-understanding**. Rather than promoting a particular belief system, the group emphasizes **shared reading, thoughtful reflection, and respectful dialogue**. Participants are welcome to engage at their own pace—whether through listening, contemplation, or open discussion. While there is **no requirement to commit before attending**, *the intention is to gradually build a group of participants who are interested in returning regularly and engaging sincerely with the material* and the group process. Newcomers are very welcome, and those who feel drawn to ongoing study are warmly encouraged to continue attending. **This is a drop-in group,** and no prior background or preparation is required. **All are welcome.** Come as you are, reflect together, and take part in a spirit of openness, seriousness of inquiry and mutual respect.

Relax your mind with evidence-based breathing practices, immerse yourself in a meditation experience & learn techniques to manage your mind **What You’ll Get From the *#BreatheStrong* Session** The workshop offers you a well-deserved 75-minute break. You'll clear your mind through calming breathing and guided meditation. **Calming breathing techniques** Relax your mind and prepare it to enter a meditative state by balancing the right and left hemispheres of the brain. **LIVE guided Panchakosha meditation** Experience a guided mediation that takes you through the five (pancha) layers (koshas) of our being. **Education on the tendencies of the mind** We will train you to overcome negative patterns using your breath and meditation. **Overview of SKY Breath Meditation** Explore a powerful technique that works at a deeper level than regular meditation, for long-lasting effects. [100+ Independent studies](https://events.ca.artofliving.org/ca-en/research-sudarshan-kriya/) conducted on four continents and published in peer review journals, including Yale and Harvard, have demonstrated a comprehensive range of benefits from practicing **SKY Breath Meditation** and related breathing exercises taught on the SKY Breath Meditation course. **There's a faster, easier way to manage your stress and anxiety.** **Join us for a free session!**

**For those who want to go deeper…** Why does a philosopher from over 2,000 years ago still matter today? In this course, we explore Plato’s *Republic* not as an academic text, but as a living guide to understanding ourselves and the world we’re in. At a time when life can feel fast, uncertain, and often overwhelming, these teachings offer something steady, clear, and deeply relevant. Together, we examine timeless questions around truth, justice, and wisdom — and why ancient insights may be more important now than ever. What does it mean to live well in today’s world? How do we stay grounded amidst noise, pressure, and constant change? Classes are interactive and guided by experienced facilitators who are long-time students of the School. As a not-for-profit community, all facilitators volunteer their time, sharing something they continue to explore in their own lives. This is not about studying philosophy. It’s about using it. Try it out for one-week on Saturday April 25th, if you enjoy it, join the 8-week course meeting Saturdays from 1:30-3pm at 29 Madison Ave in Toronto.

*This ceremony will be held at our beautiful studio* *'The Soul Sanctuary'in Leslieville, Toronto* ***Hosted by Chris Dub & Jennifer Mya.*** **Do you want to:** * Love yourself the way you are, and feel more confident to show people the real you? * Experience less anxiety, more joy, and move through triggers with more ease and grace? * Forgive your past self, and move forward feeling empowered by your choices? * Be held and guided as you look at negative thought patterns, so you can work through the outdated beliefs associated with them? * Free yourself from worry, and self-doubt, and receive practical tools to pull out the roots of depression? * Have a life changing spiritual experience, feel incredible gratitude for everything that has brought you to this point, and become the creator of your life moving forward? **Join us, dear Soul.** The time is now to rise up into your most empowered Self. To love, forgive, and have unconditional self compassion, unlearning the ways you've been taught to judge your emotions, thoughts, and desires. ***When you feel unconditionally loved and supported, you can more easefully bring forward the gifts you came here to share, and the purpose you came here to fulfill.*** The mind can distract you, and make you question your access to this unconditional love, but when you touch the source of it within you, it clarifies any confusion and you remember that it is your birthright. ***This ceremony is an opportunity to open your heart, and gain control of the mind.*** **Forgive yourself at the deepest level, and allow gratitude to guide you toward freedom.** When you forgive yourself and those around you, your power flows back into you. Gratitude is the open door to freedom and abundance, and ***when you recognize the gifts of the lessons life has given you - it becomes easier to let go of anger, resentment, and regret***. As you unravel what has been held and blocked within you, there is a natural alchemy that takes place within the body. Energy that's become stagnant is unfurled, allowing you to open to your natural confidence, peace, and vitality. ***We create and hold you in a loving space to heal and process through old traumas, ancestral karma, and to become more astutely aware of ego identification, leading to freedom, peace, and simplicity.*** **Release negative thought patterns, and rewire your nervous system for harmony and balance.** This ceremony is a safe space for you to look at the negative thoughts and limiting beliefs that hold you back from feeling your freest, clearest, most fully expressed self. Regulate your system through the awareness of breath, body (all levels - mental, emotional, physical & energetic), your 5 senses, and extrasensory perceptions. ***As you re-balance and re-align your system you will be able to see your internal experience more clearly, and also recognize why other people are the way they are, allowing you to have more compassion and forgiveness both for others and yourself.*** The more ***aware*** you are, the better ***regulated*** you are, and from that space you can become the master of your domain. You deserve the space and time to simply be, rest, rejuvenate, and feel the aliveness of living life moment by moment for YOU! **You are fully supported throughout the entire journey.** This ceremony includes the optional combination of pure MDMA along with the psilocybin mushrooms. We have found these medicines work very synergistically together, and offer an amplified level of heart opening. The pure MDMA is optional, and the dosing for both medicines will be based upon your intentions, disposition, prior experience, and current state at the time of the ceremony. After this ceremony you will feel more love for yourself and others, with a heightened sense of courage, strength, and integrity. ***You will want to make better choices, and also have the self-awareness needed to stay accountable to yourself.*** This level of love and clarity will emanate out to reach and impact all those closest to you. ***This is an invitation to open up your heart, and love and forgive yourself through unconditional acceptance. To awaken to your divinity and beauty, and access your greatest gifts of self-healing and conscious creatorship.*** **Ceremony Preparation & Integration** Prior to the ceremony you will receive an in-depth **plant medicine workbook** to help you prepare, questions to ask yourself and a recommended diet to support your experience. We will meet as a group before the ceremony for an **Intention Setting Call**, to connect with each other and share our intentions for the journey. You will also receive a **nervous system regulating practice** that supports in expanding internal awareness, grounding, centering and overall mindfulness. Following the Ceremony we will have an **Integration Call** to support and hold space for continued breakthroughs, challenges and dream weaving.
