We gather together (virtually) on the first Saturday of each month at 10:00 am CST to talk about Collective Liberation.

Facilitated by Bea Bosco, Alice Dan, and Jean Marie Robbins, our intention is to explore the sticky issues of race and other forms of self-deception that lock our Basic Goodness behind invisible layers of culture/habitual thinking.

This is not a class but a participatory exploration of our own identities and how we veer away from what really is - our own and others' Basic Goodness.

Having experienced a taste of basic goodness, we want to go forward. Meditation practice allows us to observe how we create a cocoon of habits to mask our fear. We begin to appreciate that there is no fundamental obstacle to experiencing basic goodness.
