Inquiry Sunday at KECC
Inquiry Sunday
August 6, 2017
Our morning session drew five people to the Krishnamurti Educational Centre of Canada property in Metchosin, near Victoria. We looked at a video of Byron Katie speaking about and demonstrating The Work that she offers to the world. She uses specific questions to explore our assumptions and beliefs about life, ourselves, and others and usually works one-on-one with individuals who present issues in their lives. Participants in our meeting found the material very relevant to themselves and profound in its guidance to a space in ourselves beyond complaint and conflict to compassion and love. The video was followed by some group discussion.
The afternoon session featured a selection of questions and answers from which participants could choose according to their interest. We ended up looking at video clips by Rupert Spira and J. Krishnamurti responding to the questions “Are their stages in self realization?” and “What is the difference between insight and intuition?” The answers to the questions were clear and helpful; they were followed in each case by some group discussion. It was a very enjoyable day of inquiry.
