Gathering - Advita Gathering

This Sunday we will have open and informal Advaita gathering, led by
Advait (Tom Childers), from 7-9 pm. His description of the evening:

*****************************************

We'll do some meditation, listen & read from modern Advaita texts,
share and discuss. My intention is to create a space where those who
are passionate about waking up to their true nature as "That" can
share with others. For those new to Advaita, this is a place to learn
more.

("That" is a common way of referring to "everpresent awareness",
"spacious presence", "pure beingness", etc.)

If you're unfamiliar with Advaita, you can google it to find lots of
info. In a nutshell, Advaita is the path and teaching of non-duality;
i.e. everything (without exception) is an expression of "That" and is
"That". The purpose of Advaita is to awaken this realization as a
tangible knowing that permeates ones being.

Friends are welcome. Please RSVP so I know how many to expect. If you
forget to RSVP, don't worry; just show up. Please bring a simple
vegetarian snack or drink to share.
