C. May 2011

Original Face:

On May 2 a new group, Original face, began to meet in the PaB village near the lake. The leaders were Darren Islar (or Liza Deischer), Calvino Rabeni, and Bruce Mowbray. This group grew out of a theme session. Their email to the group provided the following description:

This group is an opportunity to explore the personal side of experience and contemplation in a confidential, retreat-like atmosphere.  The meeting lasts 90 minutes and includes a short opening meditation and leisurely time for slowing down, being present and getting closer to our experience and wisdom.  Our motto is "slower is faster!"
The group description is:
Original Face is a gathering of people who are interested in contemplative and awareness-based practices, to meet, share experiences, and learn from each other.  We take personal experience and our daily life as the field of our practice as well as the focus for our conversations.

More information can be found on their wiki description page. Original face meets Mondays at 10:30 am.
