Conversations Far and Wide “.......let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger;” James 1:19 NRSV The Conversation Elements From The Conversation What a synchronicity! A few moments after we've done the recording of this week's conversation, friends who have recently been to the US, sent us this picture. Even though its specific theme is the Truth Bar in Minneapolis, it has wider applications. Unintentionally it captures a stance that is quite common: Only those who are members of our group have access to the truth. With such an assumption, conversations with someone with another point of view, is not only difficult, but almost impossible. Music As always, with love. George & Matilda
The Restory is a Retreat Centre nestled against Tafelkop, a singular mountain head near Wakkerstroom, South Africa. Here we live a simple life as contemplatives. It is a place of re-connection: with ourselves, people, Nature, Silence and Creativity. Our retreats are aimed at this. Our conversations, writing and art centre around the univocity of life. We need a place that reminds us that we are all one. The Restory hopes to be such a place and space.
