Inquiry Sunday at the Centre

Inquiry Sunday

Sunday, April 2, 2017

Six people were present for the morning session of our Inquiry Sunday. We looked at a video interview with Gilbert Schultz, founder of the Urban Guru Café radio show. Gilbert was being interviewed by Richard Miller on his own show called NeverNotHere. The topic was non-duality, what it is and what its vision of life entails. Richard was adept at raising interesting questions for contemplation and the conversation provided excellent material for our own group discussion and inquiry. Everyone expressed a great appreciation for the material and the group interaction.

For the afternoon session there were four participants. We watched a couple of clips of Krishnamurti responding to written questions from his audiences at public talks in Ojai and Brookwood Park. The questions touched on the issues of being hurt in childhood and how to deal with such hurt as well as a question about the capacity of thought to be aware of itself at the moment of its arising. K went into the issues of the self image and the possibility of awareness within the appearance of a thought in such a way as to provoke some in-depth looking and dialogue in our small group.

It felt like a day of meaningful inquiry with a sense of an ongoing deepening of the understanding.
