Awareness Circle

A Wider View

An afternoon of tea and satsang in the garden

An interactive exploration of human potential.

Everything is arriving—
a sudden light,
a strange turn in the road,
the shimmer of a world
we have never seen before.

No map.
No knowing what comes next.
And yet—
nothing is ordinary.

Just the thrill
of being here—
this light, this road,
this astonishing world—

each moment opening,
nothing outside the mystery,
the adventure
already happening.

There are moments when the familiar world grows still, and another way of seeing becomes possible. Not as an escape from the world, but as a deeper meeting with it.

A quiet curiosity may draw us to question what we have taken for granted. As the charge of emotion moves through, something more constant may come into view.

Taoist, Zen, and Advaita traditions point toward a simple possibility: that the peace and wonder we imagined would come with a flawless life is available—without one.

The window stands open.
The room keeps nothing—
not the light, not the sound.

A breath arrives.
It is already gone.

Leaves fall, asking no one.

A cloud crosses the blue.

The ground was here—
before the first word,
and after the last.

You are welcome to join us.

There is no teacher and no teaching—just a light-hearted spirit of adventure as we share tea. Inspired by ideas from the Buddha, Nisargadatta and Hellinger, we explore subtle aspects of present experience through conversation, improvisation and occasional role-play, with attention to what might otherwise go unnoticed.

The meetings last around two hours, sometimes a bit longer, and usually 12–16 people attend. It is relaxed, informal and open. There is no requirement to adopt a particular belief or practice, and participation is voluntary. Always at your own pace, and always held with care. We meet monthly in Adelaide, Melbourne and Byron Bay. There is no fee.
