Awakin Lincoln
"To understand the immeasurable, the mind must be extraordinarily quiet, still." --J. Krishnamurti
Every month, 30-40 Lincolnites gather to connect more deeply with ourselves and with one another. We deepen in friendship and community, inner work, and external service. We draw inspiration from all of the world’s wisdom traditions — spiritual, Indigenous, faith, and secular.
These gatherings have no set agendas, no teachers or proposed beliefs — they are simply a space to come together to listen to ourselves and to one another. There is no cost to attend; it is a simple offering in the spirit of co-creating a space for deeper wisdom to emerge, in silence and in community with others. These circles have spread organically around the world through word of mouth. They are fluid, and so whoever shows up each time creates the right group.
