Awakin Chandigarh
"Touch your inner space, which is nothingness, as silent and empty as the sky; it is your inner sky. Once you settle down in your inner sky, you have come home, and a great maturity arises in your actions, in your behavior. Then whatever you do has grace in it. Then whatever you do is a poetry in itself. You live poetry; your walking becomes dancing, your silence becomes music." --Osho
A few of us come together for Awakin Circles, every Wednesday at 7 PM in Sector 5, where we sit in silence for an hour, share some aha-moments for the second hour, and share a vegetarian meal afterwards. There are no teachers or agendas.
To attend our next circle, simply click on the RSVP button and register. You'll then be emailed all the details shortly.
Circle Format
7:00PM Collective silence for an hour. It is unguided, without any instructions or music. For first-timers, this primer on meditation may be helpful.
8:00PM A short reading (sent out earlier via email), followed by a circle of sharing of "aha" moments from everyday life.
9:00PM A home-cooked vegetarian meal, offered in silence, followed by informal interaction.
There is no cost to attend, nor any solicitations; everything is offered as a humble gift and people organically "pay it forward" to the world in their own ways. For more context, read Ravshaan's summary of a recent circle.
