The sessions are on Saturdays\, 4-5\, and on Wednesdays\, 12-1. All are wide open and you are welcome to come twice a week or once in a while.\n\n\n\n\nThe reading for this session: Wednesday\, July 22nd\n\nI am putting myself to the fullest possible use\, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever ho pe to do.\n—HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey\n\n\n\nThe participants over the years have found that the approach we take\, and the respectful\, affectionate community of inquirers in which we read and converse\, are a s important as the reading itself. While many small groups begin with a ch eck-in\, with a session only an hour long\, Resonant Reading jumps right i n to the conversation. Those who are frequently in the group get to know e ach other very well this way\, and those who are new will soon find they a re among friends.\n\n\n\nFacilitators use a light hand\, posting the readi ng in the chat and calling on whoever's Zoom hand is up. Suggestions for r eadings* come from group members\, who also take turns facilitating\, if t hey want to try that role.\n\n\nHow to join:\n\n\n\n Join this class from your Web browser: https://zoom.us/j/96865808923\, passcode 227385\n Join this class using the Zoom app: Meeting ID: 968 6580 8923\n Join this cla ss by phone: 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) Meeting ID: 968 6580 8923\n Join this class by one-tap on mobile phones: 6699006833\,\,96865808923#  (San Jose)\n Phoning in\, but not in the Bay Area?  Find your local number: h ttps://zoom.us/u/abL8clvIYT\n\nThis is the Zoom link for Wednesdays.

That proved misleading--for one thing\, more often than not our sources are se cular--but it's worth describing the qualities of a sacred text\, which we still look for in the readings we choose. It is any reading that helps us to:\n\n connect to something of supreme importance to us\n feel more co nnected to other beings or to the universe\n feel more intensely alive\n align our lives with our values\,\n perceive or feel more deeply\n be m ore fully and authentically ourselves.\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.uucpa.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09 /Resonant-Reading.png CATEGORIES:Adult,Learning,Ongoing Events,Small Groups END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Los_Angeles X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Los_Angeles BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20260308T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0800 TZOFFSETTO:-0700 TZNAME:PDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
