**Gathering in community is an essential part of being human.** When we sing, share, play, dance, hold rituals, eat together… We move beyond dogma. The Gathering is about the simple yet radical choice to gently ease open our hearts and trust the voice of love to guide the way. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 Many of us have become isolated in our spiritual journeys, atomised by our individual interests, unaware of the mycelial network that connects us and the abundance of resources available to help us flourish. **The Gathering is about remembering the sacredness of life, our belonging in a wider community and that our soul-given gifts are designed to be lived and shared.** The Gathering takes place in Brussels once or twice a month on a Sunday afternoon. Starting with a **singing circle** and a moment of **contemplation**, participants then choose between **practices exploring different aspects of connection - to self, to other, and to life**. We finish the afternoon together with a **potluck meal**. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 * VISIT THE WEBSITE FOR MORE INFO >>> https://bit.ly/4iFjoiU **\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~PRACTICAL INFO\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*** **{ TIMING }** * \~ Please arrive between 13:45-14:15 so we can start together. The doors will close promptly at 14:15. * \~ The circle and activities will last until 18:00, so please make sure you are able to be present until then. * \~ Everyone is welcome to stay afterwards to share food until 19:00. **{ BRING }** * \~ a meditation cushion or a pillow (there is nothing provided in the space!) * \~ your water bottle * \~ clothes you can move comfortably in * \~ a blanket, warm socks and/or sweater (optional, if you easily get cold) * \~ a yoga mat (optional, for extra cushioning) * \~ food to share (optional, for potluck) **{ ACCESSIBILITY }** * \~ The event will be mainly in English, but some practices may be proposed in other languages. * \~ Children are very welcome!

Gifts can take many different forms. Time, energy, experience, food, knowledge, wealth, skills, creativity, love… This does not mean that money is ignored. There are costs associated with renting the space and money is needed in order to further develop the project. **We will ask participants during the afternoon to contribute consciously and according to their means. However, money should not prevent anyone who wants to join, to be able to join.** How would you like to contribute? There are infinite ways to share your gifts, from helping with the costs, to helping with the set up, to guiding a practice, to cooking a group meal... And if you don’t feel like you are able to contribute anything right now, you are still welcome. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 * VISIT THE WEBSITE FOR MORE INFO >>> https://bit.ly/4iFjoiU

Another new year just arriving, it might be a fitting opportunity to re-explore a subject we last did in July 2021 when live contacting towards the end of the COVID pandemic was just beginning to resume, although we were still obligated to hold that meetup outdoors in order to avoid the prescribed maximum of 8 participants when indoors. Since then, life has "normalized" again, and, thinking back, it might even be now almost difficult to imagine how that pandemic period, back "there and then", was experienced during that time as a "here and now"... How "here and now" is related to "there and then" is indeed one of the questions we might wish to explore during our next session... This subject I believe is one of the most interesting ones we've covered in Brussels Philosophy so far, inviting us to re-examine how we phenomenologically experience space and time, and in the process (literally!) to critically re-think how we habitually conceptualize space and time in our everyday lives. So here's the intro: Why, when we look in a mirror, are left and right reversed but not up and down? Might this pseudo-paradox ("para-paradox"??) (not) be a clue, if at least only by analogy, as to why we typically seem to have a clearer concept of what we can identify as an "eternal now", but seemingly have much more difficulty conceptualizing an "eternal here"? When it comes to experiencing and conceptualizing moments in time and places in space in relation to change, we habitually, almost instinctively, believe that moments flow by (in the one stream of time) independent of our will, while places always remain the same places (independent of the fact that they gradually become different as time goes on), and moreover, remain subject to our will: we can choose to move (or not move) from one place to another. We can travel in space but not in time. Change, therefore, we tend to view as a phenomenon that is temporal, not spatial: "things may change _in_ time, but it is time itself that causes change". On the other hand, we do seem able to perceive and conceptualize an "eternal now"... while seemingly finding it more difficult to experience an "eternal here" (the pseudo-paradox). Newton indeed conceived of time as a dimension separate and independent of the 3 dimensions of space, and of all events in the universe as occurring in one singular uniform flow of time, whereas Einstein, as we all now understand, conceptualized spacetime as one unified phenomenon, neither space itself nor time itself being absolute or independent of the other. In this meetup we will attempt to explore and find out if there is a phenomenological counterpart to Einstein's spacetime. The thesis proposed here is that there is indeed, and that it is in fact found centre stage in our consciousness - but perhaps because of survival pressures that have operated on humans collectively and individually for most of our history, and the resultant ways in which language and culture have evolved, our consciousness of the "eternal here" has remained under-developed. (Language and culture mirror consciousness, and how consciousness develops mirrors existent language and culture.) A key corollary-claim in this thesis is that change can also be experienced and explained primarily in terms of space, without reference to time, and moreover, such a manner of perceiving and conceptualizing space-driven change arguably remains compatible with both Newtonian (tweaking it slightly, perhaps!) and Einsteinian models of reality. Our session will provide an opportunity to consider and examine phenomenological experiences that could be referred to as "eternal now", "eternal here", "everywhere here", "everywhen now", "everywhere now", "everywhen here", "flowing time", "flowing space" ... We will be guided through several different thought experiments designed to support the idea that change can be attributed to space rather than time, paying special attention to developing the concept of "flowing space". These thought experiments will then hopefully invite animated and open discussion. So let's enjoy being able to meet up with no restrictions this time. Looking forward to seeing you then & there! *without ever having truly left

The City of Leuven offers all residents a drink and a snack to enter the New Year together! You can choose from a Stella or Coffee and enjoy some smouteballen (sort of like donuts). This year the event will be held in front of OPEK due to the old Stadhuis being under rennovation. The International House will meet as a group, look for the IHL flag when you arrive. We will use the comments in the Meet-Up app to stay in touch to give a more precise location on the day of. Hope to see you there!

Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you! After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations. Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy: What is a genuine friend? Is social media turning us into emotional zombies? Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them? Are we driven by sex? Is loneliness a personal failure? Is morality relative? **Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.

This is an open Circle for anyone and open to constellate on any subject. It's a good way to get started if you've been wanting to see what Constellations is all about. We will start with some bodywork exercises and then there will be time for three Constellations on any topic. ​A Constellation is a means for accessing the timeless map you hold within, linking the past to the present and the present to the future. It's a tool to find the origin of the problems we face today such as repeated patterns, blockages, relationship difficulties or health concerns, to name a few, and has the power to reveal hidden dynamics not visible to the normal eye. Then a healing exchange takes place and steps are taken to free you from the past and put you on a road to freedom, understanding and authenticity for your future. ​There are two ways to participate, either as a participant or Space Holder in the Circle or to bring a topic to constellate as an Issue Holder, which is limited to three places. Although one person will bring a subject to constellate, everyone participates. A Constellation is a Healing Circle for all who attend. ​ Price for Space Holders: 45 Euros (12 spots) Price for Issue Holders: 145 Euros (3 spots) ​Date: Sunday, January 11th ​Time: 3:00 to 7:00 pm Location: Shanti Home: Rue Darwin 8, Brussels 1190 (Forest) ​\*There are three spots available for Constellations. Contact me if you'd like to reserve one of these spots. \*Spots are limited for both roles to ensure enough space in the room, although the room is very spacious. *Modified price for students or if you are unemployed.
