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\nThe participants over the years have found that the approach we take\, and the respectful\, affectionate c ommunity of inquirers in which we read and converse\, are as important as the reading itself. While many small groups begin with a check-in\, with a session only an hour long\, Resonant Reading jumps right in to the conver sation. Those who are frequently in the group get to know each other very well this way\, and those who are new will soon find they are among friend s.\n\n\n\nFacilitators use a light hand\, posting the reading in the chat and calling on whoever's Zoom hand is up. Suggestions for readings* come f rom group members\, who also take turns facilitating\, if they want to try that role.\nThe reading for this session: Wednesday (422 at 12 noon)\n\n[ There is an] absence of ultimate reality. We live in a world of relations. Which are sort of mirrors\, reflecting mirrors. And I find it beautiful\, liberating\, sort of full of light\, and powerful\, incredibly powerful. It leaves space open for anything. It leaves freedom in a sense.\n\n—Car lo Rovelli\, Cosmic Mysteries and the Politics of Wonder on Wonder Cabinet \n\nHow to join:\n\n\n\n Join this class from your Web browser: https://z oom.us/j/96865808923\, passcode 227385\n Join this class using the Zoom a pp: Meeting ID: 968 6580 8923\n Join this class by phone: 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) Meeting ID: 968 6580 8923\n Join this class by one-tap on mob ile phones: 6699006833\,\,96865808923#  (San Jose)\n Phoning in\, but no t in the Bay Area?  Find your local number: https://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 secular--but it's worth descri bing the qualities of a sacred text\, which we still look for in the readi ngs we choose. It is any reading that helps us to:\n\n connect to somethi ng of supreme importance to us\n feel more connected to other beings or t o the universe\n feel more intensely alive\n align our lives with our va lues\,\n perceive or feel more deeply\n be more 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
