London’s wonderful gathering

I had the honour of engaging in dialogue with 60 or so people last night, September 11th, at the London JCC.  The topic? Nothing heavy, just God. We shared what or even who we think God is. The thoughts were provocative at times, heartfelt, and wonderfully insightful. We spoke about our lives as our prayer, how we might connect with the biggest and smallest parts of our existence. From the cosmos to the love that we can share with those we journey with here on earth. We thought about God as a process, a verb as it were. It was a good night.

I am hoping to go back soon to run an Ageing and Sageing workshop. If you would like to have me join you and youir group anywhere in the GTHA poease feel free to contact me at ralphbenmergui@gmail.com.

Upcoming Event – Ageing and Sageing

As we move through life we often find ourselves surprised by how quickly it goes by. We give only a glancing thought as to how we feel about our own mortality and the legacy we want to leave. In a safe and caring environment we will explore how we might move from merely being Seniors, dependent and vulnerable, to becoming Sages. Cultivating and harvesting our wisdom to pass on to those we love and those so can make a real difference in our families and communities.

I will be offering a series of one day workshops at several locations in the GTHA including Hamilton and Toronto. Our first workshop will be at Thinkspot in Lowville situated in a beautiful retreat setting just north of Burlington on October 14/17.

The full day offering will include guided meditations. Deep listening exercises and the formation of a spiritual and ethical will. Not what things  we leave behind but instead what we want to say today to those we car so much about. Participants can be of any age and background.
