Victoria Krishnamurti Event

Victoria Krishnamurti Event Church of Truth Sunday, June 12, 2016 Seven people gathered on Sunday afternoon at the Church of Truth in Victoria to consider the topic “The Art of Meditation.” We began with a reading on meditation from Krishnamurti’s book Freedom from the Known, followed by a fifteen minute silent sit where we looked into the state of our own minds as recommended in the reading. Self understanding is, according to K, essential in living a life of meaning, harmony, and love, The silent period was followed by group discussion and inquiry into what is important in our lives.   After a tea break we watched an excellent video clip of Rupert Spira answering a question on meditation. Meditation for him is not something we do, but something we are. Being knowingly aware is the essence of meditation, and this is our natural state if we care to notice it. More discussion followed and participants seemed very engaged in the material and dynamics of the afternoon.
