Study Group Conversation Theme and Self-Inquiry Question:
Conversation Theme: We invite you to explore a variety of ways in which we can expand our individual and shared circles of empathy. This might include opening to experience all children as our children, opening to feel all plants and animals as our sisters and brothers, and exploring current perspectives on how life evolves to love, nurture and protect life.
Question: How can I open and listen more deeply, to feel life and the world as experienced by other people and other cultures, races, classes, creatures, eco-systems?
