The Spiritual Exploration Group is set to meet on September 13, 2010 at Little Nepal Restaurant

August 28, 2010 — Richard

No, the 13th is not the “First Monday” – our usual day for meeting. But since Labor Day happens to be on the first Monday of September (as usual!) we thought we’d move to the second Monday to give everyone (including ourselves) a nice long weekend!

Our topic for September should generate some lively discussion; it is “How do you live your spirituality?” What are your practices? How do you put into action what you believe about life, spirit, the unknown? Rosemary and I will offer what works for us, the things that we’ve tried that haven’t worked so well, what we are studying, new practices we are exploring. And we hope you will be willing to share with us your ideas and thoughts on this broad topic.

We will gather as usual at Little Nepal at 6:30 pm for a light, tasty (maybe even vegetarian) Indian dinner, meaty discussion, but we’ll leave the dogma at home!

Blessings and joy!

Notes from the August 2, 2010 meeting of The Spiritual Exploration Group

August 28, 2010 — Richard

Our group gathered on August 2, 2010 at Little Nepal restaurant. And, the topic of the evening was “What do your numbers reveal?” We had fun learning how to determine our Life Path and Destiny numbers from our birthdays and full birth names, respectively. This is a particularly fun exploration for Rosemary and me since we share a birthday, in fact, August 2nd!

We first determined how to compute our Life Paths from our birthdays. We distributed forms to make this really easy. I’ve included a copy of the form here in case you were unable to attend or you would like to work with it again:  NUMEROLOGY WORKSHEET (Just click on the link to download the form into MS Word) (And here is another link to a PDF version of the document:  NUMEROLOGY WORKSHEET.PDF)

The main reference book we used to explore each of the profiles for the resulting numbers is: “Numerology: Universal Vibrations of Numbers” by Barbara J. Bishop. Rosemary’s favorite book (packed away with all of our Maryland books) is “Your Days are Numbered: A Manual of Numerology for Everybody” by Florence Campbell.  Of course, with a topic so ancient and broad there are many good reference books available. Please post some of your favorites!

Our next meeting is scheduled for the Second Monday (allowing for Labor Day); we will meet on September 13, 2010, at 6:30 at Little Nepal Restaurant, for dinner, discussion, but no dogma!
