Socrates Cafe

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method) We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

Propongo una primera quedada pequeña entre personas que acompañan procesos personales, relacionales, terapéuticos, corporales, creativos o comunitarios. La idea es encontrarnos entre pares y ver si hay afinidad para hablar de práctica, vínculos, límites, comunicación, coherencia, cansancio, exposición, dinero y soledad profesional; pero también de algo más de fondo: qué implica intentar cuidar la forma en que nos relacionamos con los demás y con nosotros mismos, y qué consecuencias concretas tiene vivir y acompañar desde un lugar más honesto. No está pensado como una formación, una supervisión formal ni un grupo terapéutico. Tampoco como una tribu cerrada, un espacio donde todo el mundo hable igual o un encuentro de networking vacío. Está pensado para personas que ya acompañan o tienen experiencia en relación de ayuda, terapia, educación social, mediación, cuerpo, procesos grupales, creatividad o acompañamiento comunitario, y que echen de menos espacios más horizontales donde poder pensar, contrastar y compartir desde la práctica y desde lo que implica intentar vivir con más honestidad y cuidado en la forma de relacionarse. Esta primera quedada será simplemente una mesa tranquila para conocernos y ver si aparece resonancia. Si hay afinidad, me gustaría que pudiera nacer algo con continuidad: una mesa mensual de apoyo/intervisión entre pares, sí, pero también una pequeña red viva desde la que puedan surgir otros planes y formas de compartir más allá del contexto puramente profesional. Si no, simplemente habrá sido un café y una conversación :) Pd: Esta convocatoria forma parte de una primera fase de prueba del grupo. Habrá una mesa presencial de domingo y una mesa presencial entre semana. La idea es ver dónde aparece afinidad y, más adelante, si tiene sentido crear algo con continuidad

**Aquesta activitat té un aforament limitat i les places s'assignen a través del sistema d'inscripció de Meetup. Les places obtingudes es reservaran fins al dia de la trobada al moment en què el grup hagi seleccionat el tema de debat. Si arribeu més tard d'aquell moment, la vostra plaça podrà ser cedida a una altra persona.** Hola i benvinguts al nostre proper Meetup de filosofia de Sòcrates Cafè! Vols una comprensió més profunda de tu mateix i del món? Valores el diàleg profund, honest i respectuós? Si és així, aquesta trobada serà molt interessant per a tu. Es tracta d'una reunió bilingüe; on podrem intervenir tant en català com en espanyol. **ON ENS TROBEM?** Café de l'Opera (NOMES 3 ABRIL!) **QUAN ENS TROBEM** Els divendres de 19:15 a 20:45 Si us plau, arribeu a temps. Començarem puntualment **QUANTES PERSONES ENS REUNIM** Es proposen sessions amb aforaments diversos, de manera que el nombre d'assistents pot variar cada setmana **QUÈ PASSA A LES REUNIONS** A cada reunió tenim una discussió utilitzant el mètode socràtic:[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_metho](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method)d. Fem, responem i discutim preguntes i idees per estimular el pensament crític i ampliar les nostres perspectives amb alguns conceptes i pensaments en els quals mai hem pensat. L'objectiu principal d'aquestes trobades és enriquir-nos amb les perspectives dels altres, i no convèncer els altres sobre les nostres perspectives. Les reunions són sobre les nostres pròpies filosofies de la vida i no necessàriament el que els grans filòsofs i acadèmics han dit o escrit. No és un club de debat ni una plataforma per fer proselitisme. En canvi, posem èmfasi en qüestionar, tenir una mentalitat oberta i desafiar les nostres pròpies suposicions mentre escoltem i respectem les opinions compartides per altres persones. Una reunió de Sòcrates Cafè es considera un èxit quan els participants surten de la discussió amb moltes més preguntes de les que tenien al principi **QUINS TEMES ES DISCUTEIXEN A LES REUNIONS** Els participants suggereixen temes al principi de cada reunió. Després votem i triem el tema més popular per discutir-lo. No és necessària una formació acadèmica en filosofia; només es requereix entusiasme per intercanviar idees i punts de vista. Alguns exemples de temes escollits a reunions anteriors \- Per quins ideals val la pena morir \- Per què mai estem satisfets \- Per què els éssers humans estem informats que la societat va malament i els líders també estan ben informats\, i no obstant això les coses continuen igual \- És necessària la identitat \- Quin és el preu ètic i l'avarícia \- Què és la postveritat \- Com és possible que les persones a les societats democràtiques estiguin tan obsessionades pel poder? \(Desig de ser diferent\, millor\, més fort que els altres\)\- Què és l'amistat **QUI POT PARTICIPAR EN AQUEST MEETUP** Qualsevol persona és més que benvinguda a unir-se a les nostres trobades. Aquests events reuneixen persones de diferents orígens i cultures, tot i que no és obligatori tenir formació filosòfica. Els nostres participants habituals són persones que tenen desig d'una comprensió més profunda de si mateixos i del món. Persones que valoren el diàleg profund, honest i respectuós

¿La filosofía puede transformar nuestra forma de ver la vida? Hace más de dos mil años, Platón propuso realizar un viaje a través de dos lenguajes que conforman nuestra vida interior: el mito y el logos. Y creemos que ideó un método que el tiempo demostró ser válido para toda época y lugar. A través de las ideas del gran filósofo, y con ejemplos prácticos de la vida cotidiana, exploraremos como la combinación del poder simbólico del mito con la fuerza racional del logos puede ayudarnos a superar con claridad los retos y dificultades del día a día. Ven y descubre también como mito y logos son herramientas indispensables para alimentar nuestros sueños más profundidad y para favorecer la elevación de la conciencia. Te esperamos el viernes, 19 de junio a las 20:00 h. Charla impartida por: Giosef Quaglia 🎟️ Actividad gratuita. ⚠️ Sé responsable con tu inscripción. Si no puedes asistir, por favor, cancela tu plaza para dar lugar a otra persona. Si tienes alguna pregunta puedes contactarnos al móvil: 686 22 62 84. \*\*\* Para garantizar el buen funcionamiento de la actividad y evitar interrupciones, se ruega puntualidad. No se permitirá la entrada pasados los primeros 10 minutos de la actividad. Gracias por la comprensión.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

Hola, El antiguo “Dinner for 4” se transforma en “Cena entre 4 almas". Con ilusión y sencillez, os invito a compartir un espacio de encuentro para hablar de espiritualidad. Cada viernes a las 20:30, aproximadamente, abriremos una mesa pequeña e íntima de máximo 4 personas, en un restaurante de Barcelona, donde la comida y la palabra se convierten en puente. Solo habrá una mesa cada noche y cada uno paga lo suyo. No hay comisiones de ningún tipo por parte de la organización, que hago yo. Las conversaciones se llevarán a cabo en catalán y/o castellano...o inglés, según como nos entedamos mejor. Para participar, hay que apuntarse en Meetup y, una vez hecho, confirmar por WhatsApp a mi teléfono, 677528104. Es posible, también, apuntarse solamente por WhatsApp. Esto no es solo una cena: es un encuentro, un espacio de respeto y de luz...de posible aprendizaje entre todos los comensales...compartiendo experiencias y escuchando. Por ello pedimos seriedad, porque cada silla es valiosa y cada presencia tiene un sentido. Cada cena tendrá su propio latido: a veces será solo un espacio para hablar de vida y espiritualidad; otras veces, para ofrecer una mirada y un consejo más personal. Todo según lo que la vida nos traiga e inspire en ese instante. No es un curso, ni una terapia, ni una conferencia. Es un espacio vivo, donde todos somos maestros y aprendices, y donde cada uno de nosotros se va desplegando con naturalidad. La participación es libre y abierta a quien sienta el deseo de asistir. Os animo a participar 😃. Gracias, Climent

Buenas de nuevo, gatos curiosos! **El día 20 de junio propongo un plan matinal en el que asistiremos a una sesión a bóveda completa del planetario de la fundación CosmoCaixa y visitaremos la parte del museo dedicada a la Astronomía , la sala universo( no el museo completo, pues requeriría más tiempo.)** **Después de la visita al planetario, propongo que nos traslademos al restaurante temático Verne, dedicado a este gran maestro y pionero de la ciencia ficción.** Este restaurante, ubicado en la calle Aribau, 150, es el ideal para tomarse un refresco y admirar su ambientación , pues parece que estás en un submarino o comiendo en las entrañas de la tierra. **La sesión del planetario es de 8 euros, que incluye entrada al museo. En el restaurante Verne, especializado en tapas y rolls bocadillos con muchos ingredientes, cada uno paga lo que consume.** Espero que os guste este plan alternativo al de la agrupación Astronómica Aster, a la que he renunciado por el alto coste que nos pedían por persona. El presidente nos exigía 30 euros por persona por una hora y media de actividad y , al intentar rebajar el precio, se me ha negado. Se trata de pasarlo bien, pero sin que el precio sea excesivo, al menos esa es mi filosofía en este grupo. Os espero en este astronómico encuentro! Hasta pronto!!

Socrates Cafés are gatherings around the world where people from different backgrounds get together and exchange thoughtful ideas and experiences while embracing the Socratic Method; the idea that we learn more when we question, and question with others. Although this may be considered a "philosophical" group, there are no rules as to what is discussed. Those attending decide upon the questions of the night. Usually, the topics revolve around social concerns, moral issues, and the first principles of things. Prior to each meeting we vote online for the questions we will discuss. That way, we will have enough time to ruminate on them and have more in-depth conversations. If you RSVP to a meeting, you may post your question in the event comments section below. I'll send out a survey for voting a few days prior to the meetup. We discuss two questions each night. So you will get to cast two votes in the survey. When we meet, we break into smaller groups of five to seven to discuss the top two vote-getters. Each group discusses one question for around 45-50 minutes, and we then take a short break. After reconvening, each group moves on to its second question. Hope to see you there! -Brian

Come join us for in-depth discussions on topics relating to moral and political philosophy. This is a group for members who are comfortable discussing topics that are often anxiety producing and controversial. *"Aristotle was a realist who believed that reality and knowledge are found in the physical world, accessible through sensory experience and logic. This led to contrasting views on ethics, politics, and the nature of reality itself. Plato emphasized abstract, ideal concepts, while Aristotle prioritized empirical observation and the study of the natural world."* \- Google Gemini Following Aristotle's lead, this group will lean heavily on empirical data to make arguments. The Socratic method is still the preferred way to engage in conversation, and Platonic Idealism is still relevant to the conversation as points of reference.
