Description:
Interesting people, fascinating information and "extra-ordinary" conversation in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
In this interactive forum, participants gain an ever-broadening understanding of being human while navigating the complexities of the greater reality. In contrast to a typical discussion forum, participants are encouraged to explore ideas from a metaphysical perspective, where no idea is too far-out!
Utilizing intellect and intuition, participants explore: What is our purpose for existence? Where did we come from? How do our souls come into being? What is the triune nature of mind?
Note: Intended for participants 18-32 years-old only.
