… Feel free to believe that if you want, but don't call it science and stop teaching it to our kids with our tax dollars. It is your religion. Mutations don't produce new information, they only re-arrange information that is already there. A horse might grow a 5th leg or a 2nd head, but it won't grow wings. Mutations do not produce NEW information, they only re-arrange old information. And I would not bet on any mutated horse. Maybe that is because God got it right the first time and nothing i …

… It evolved through the ages and continues to develop through the efforts of thoughtful people who recognize that values and ideals, however carefully wrought, are subject to change as our knowledge and understandings advance.

It is in this sense that we affirm the following: Knowledge of the world is derived by …

I'll try to do some happy hours, but feel free to suggest/post anything that is fun. Feel free to …

Hi! I moved from Sacramento to San Francisco 3 months back and love the city!!! Was part of The Sacramento Indian Girls Club which is no longer active and miss it immensely!

The main purpose of this group is to gather all the Indian girlies from the city and have our own one of a kind meet up group. I have been part of other Indian groups where members were fro …

Instead of vague advice such as "be yourself", "don’t be needy" or "have more confidence," we will focus on finding what you can concretely DO to brin …

… In the free introductory evenings I will present a brief roadmap of the self and show a few ways to identify different parts of the self and to determine which energies or voices are serving us and our goals and which ones are working against each other. We will also learn some basic ways of breaking the grasp of negative or immobilizing forces and shifting into more functional ones. In future meetups we will go deeper into the origins and goals of these energies. We will learn to differentiate …

… Observe how thoughts pop into the mind, but don't let them take your awareness away. By not arguing or mentally conversing with the thought, you will be free from its control. When you build up mindfulness you can sense everything that an opponent will do, by his energy, his words, or a movement of his hands, you can sense it. By applying and realizing this philosophy, more of life opens up to you because your ability of immediate perception has increased. What might seem like a sixth sense to o …

Hello Ladies, There are so many of us out here in the San Francisco and Bay Area; we all have different interests, different backgrounds and skills, as well as different preferences in what we eat. Since I love eating and figure many others do too, I thought it would be fun to use the lunch hours to bring us all together. Whether you want to try new restaurants, meet some new, exciting, and different people, or simply just build your connections... I invite you to join us for some of our lunc …

Welcome to Maum Meditation! The ultimate freedom is to have a completely clear and free mind. The human mind is always changing and is always trying to add more desirable experiences. There is no end to this addition. The way to find peace and clarity is to know the real world, the True world, by subtracting the past that has been recorded and stored within the body and mind as pictures. There is nothing more valuable than one's mind. It shapes the entire world that one knows. Through subtractin …

… His successors continued to develop the Dharma, creating new schools of thought and practice. In the current era, we have an unparalleled access to the teachings of many schools of Buddhism, even extinct ones lost in previous centuries but surviving in texts and artifacts of their time. Rather than enshrining any one tradition of practice, the Bay Area Open Sangha looks to the entirety of Buddhism as the ekayana or one vehicle bequeathed to us by history and the many dedicated practitioners and …

Harmonia is always on the look out for extraordinary places to practice yoga.

To be surrounded by the beautiful views, peaceful sounds, and gorgeous water, who would pass this up? Gerry generously opened up his yacht to me and gave the community a chance to experience what it's like to own your own private luxury yacht! Now you have the chance to experience the divi …
