Hey everyone, I’m thinking of starting a small weekly online group for people interested in consciousness, self-inquiry, and the work of Peter Ralston — especially The Book of Not Knowing.
The kind of work we’d explore is about looking directly at things we normally take for granted: consciousness, the sense of self and identity, our assumptions and beliefs, perception, experience, and what we can actually discover for ourselves through direct experience.
The idea is pretty simple:
Once a week we meet online, read or discuss a short section from Ralston or related material, and then spend part of the meeting doing practical contemplation and awareness exercises.
So it wouldn’t just be talking about philosophical ideas. The focus would be on actually questioning our assumptions, looking at our own experience, and trying to become more conscious of how we perceive ourselves and reality.
This isn’t a course, and nobody is positioning themselves as a teacher. It’s simply a small group of people interested in seriously exploring these questions together.
You don’t need to already know Ralston’s work.
If this sounds interesting, comment here or send me a DM and I’ll put the group together.
