Sunday Events at the Centre
Inquiry Sunday Sunday, April 5, 2015 On Sunday morning four people gathered to continue with the meditations of Rupert Spira on the nature of our experience. The DVD we have been exploring is The Transparency of Things and this completed our viewing of this particular series of interviews and guided contemplations with Rupert. Participants felt that Rupert is, like Krishnamurti in his time, presenting a radical and fresh perspective on the subject of self understanding and the seeing of reality. His pointings can be most helpful in leading us to a deeper seeing of what is. The Sunday afternoon session included a showing of a question and answer meeting with Krishnamurti from Saanen, Switzerland. K responded to a question on the nature of desire and how it is awakened. He spoke of how to observe desire as it arises so that there is a gap before one acts and therefore a freedom. This freedom can release us from the sense of being slaves to our desires. The discussion that followed investigated the ideas further in terms of practical experience.
