Our last three meetings have focused on the question of self: its soul, its will and how it should live. A conception of self, however, begs a larger question: What constitutes the self? Is it a thing or is it a process; or both? Is it memories, genetic inheritance and/or the influence of fellow selves? In any case, the self is not an autonomous agent unaffected by the world it seeks to mold. The self is of its world and the world is then molded by groups of selves striving for their collective ends. In turn, that world molds the singular self.Due to its location on Memorial Day, we thought it would be good to recap a recurring thread that has pervaded our recent meetings and we are sure to see again. This thread, the nature of self and its relation to its world, underlies the most fundamental question of philosophy: the nature of being. For, without being, all other questions are rendered mute.20th century philosophy recognizes the self as a nexus of narratives. In order to further understand these inherited stories that constitute our sense of self, modern philosophers have put these stories under the microscope; their histories, power dynamics and preconceptions. These stories about stories are meta-narratives. Jacques Derrida has questioned these coveted stories thus deconstructing our faith in biography; our desire to see the self as a fixed story that we can definitively know in its entirety. So, if I can't completely know myself, then who does? Other selves, perhaps; my friends, family, community, nation and species. Without this evolved culture would I even be a homo sapien? Does the boundary of my-self end at my skin or does my-self extend into culture to then constitute other selves?These are important questions since ethics of law and war are predicated on the tacit assumption that at some point the group is within its right to mold the freedom of the one. So, where does the one end and the many begin? At what point do I relinquish the telling of my story to the group? At what point is it prudent for the one to derail the story being told by the many?Please review the wiki on Jacques Derrida to get us started. We look forward to meeting you and hearing your thoughts. We will meet at 7pm, settle in, meet and greet, and kick off the topic at 7:30pm.David and Josh</p> <p>See the full event details, including location, at <a href="http://philosophy.meetup.com/184/calendar/7832931/i3/cl" rel="nofollow">http://philosophy.meetup.com/184/calendar/7832931/</a>.</p></td></tr><tr><td align="left" colspan="2"><p><b>Check out what members are saying about The San Francisco Philosophy Meetup Group:</b></p><p>"No two meetings are alike, each has its own distinct character." <br><br>- David </p> <p>"Good group of people, also very sincere I think in their desire to communicate - which is not necessarily a given." - Susan S </p> <p>"I feel that the group has a lot of potential, I but it will take a bit longer for me to come to any real conclusions." - Nathaniel </p> <p>"Because we're all hungry for real conversation, about real ideas." - Jessica </p></p> </td></tr></table>]]> | <![CDATA[We're a growing group hoping to meet new people and learn from each other.

<br>
<br>
Would you like to become part of a group of like minded individuals who discuss and explore effective ways of how to create positive change in life?
<br>
<br>
<br>
If you answer yes then I would like to invite you to our newly emerging learning and healing community for and by truth seekers (and speakers), teachers and students, artists, visionaries, co-creators and healers from different walks of life, belief systems and age groups who come together to learn from and with one another, work together, explore, relate and share personal learning experiences and philosophies and create a wonderful experience through creative activities, awareness exercises and inter-active dialogue during which we will explore:
<br>
<br>
* topics ranging from personal improvement, interpersonal relationships, conflict resolution, self esteem, anger and impulse control to human development, community building, inter-personal communication, mythology, the supernatural, philosophy, spirituality, psychology, the essence of healing, exercise, health, motivation, inspiration, empowerment and enlightenment,
<br>
<br>
* the nature of learning, how and what we learn through experience,
<br>
<br>
* personal philosophies and belief systems and how they have developed,
<br>
<br>
* the fundamental laws (as well as the meaning..) of life, among them law of creation, the law of evolution, the law of attraction, the law of karma and the law of synchronicity,
<br>
<br>
* how to practically apply the knowledge we gain into how we deal with and live life.
<br>
<br>
<br>
What I would like to do is create a community space, an outlet where people can express themselves, inter-act and network with other like minded individuals, ask questions and find answers to their unique problems and challenges. To help in this process I would like to come up with a schedule for weekly seminars, workshops, group exercises and study meetings along the lines of personal and human development.
<br>
<br>
As an emerging community our success is based upon your collaboration, synergy, corporation and contributions. Participation is completely free of charge, but I would appreciate a small non-mandatory dontation based upon what you can afford and what you take away from the experience. I would also like to encourage you to bring something to eat and/- or drink to be shared with others in our group.
<br>
<br>
Meetings take place in the Russian Hill are of San Francisco every Sunday between 4 pm - 8 pm (or later), or at a time which is convenient for you. Our group will consist of anywhere between 4-10 people, not to exceed 15. I am also available for a one-on-one meeting either over the phone or in person to discuss this opportunity further.
<br>
<br>
<br>
In addition to this physical experience I would also like to introduce you to the experience of virtual and global community building on www.paltalk.com . This voice and web cam enabled chat community provides the opportunity for anybody who is a member to either create their own room, or join an existing room under various categories such as Friends and Family, Sports, Politics, Social Issues, Spirituality, Languages and Distant Learning. Since paltalk is open to people around the world you can find any time of the day between 40.000 – 60.000 people gathered together in several thousand different room.
<br>
<br>
To provide an outlet for spiritually minded individuals to express themselves, listen to the philosophies, beliefs and view points of others and become inspired, motivated, empowered, enlightened and organized to create positive change in life I created 'A room for conscious rEvolution’ in December of 2005 , located under the category 'Religion & Spirituality' and 'Metaphysical': <a href="http://chat.paltalk.com/g2/group/920052976" rel="nofollow">http://chat.paltalk.com/g2/group/920052976</a>
<br>
<br>
This room combines an inter-active radio program, knowledge exchange, speak easy and school for experiental learning and attitudinal development. We are open every day, usually during the early to late evening hours on weekdays, and various hours of the weekend, but my intention is to create a 24/7 online meeting room.
<br>
<br>
To participate all you need is a computer with speakers so you can follow the conversation in the room, and a microphone (but not necessary) if you would like to express your thoughts and ideas verbally. The capacity of the room is 200, so make sure to tell all your friends, co-workers, family members and loved-ones about this amazing experience in virtual and global community building.
<br>
<br>
As time goes on I would like to broadcast our physical meetings live via this online meeting room, and eventually I would also like to record our sessions so I can make the audio, and possibly video of our meeting available to you so you can review it at a later point.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for your time I am looking forward to be speaking to you soon.

<br>
<br>
When people asked the Buddha why and what he taught, he replied "I teach because
<br>
you and all beings seek happiness and try to avoid suffering. I teach the way things are."
<br>
<br>
So what is Buddhism? Buddha used the best description himself. During the 1,500 years
<br>
the teachings existed in India, they were called Dharma, and for the last 1000 years in Tibet
<br>
the name was Cho. Both mean "the way things are". Understanding the way things are is
<br>
the key to every happiness.
<br>
<br>
The Diamond Way Buddhist Center San Francisco is one of a worldwide network of
<br>
Buddhist Centers founded by Lama Ole Nydahl according to the wishes of the late 16th
<br>
Gyalwa Karmapa. They are now under the spiritual guidance of the 17th Gyalwa
<br>
Karmapa Trinlay Thaye Dorje, spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu Lineage, which is one
<br>
of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism. This lineage transmits the teachings of
<br>
Diamond Way (Vajrayana) Buddhism. The Diamond Way is the crown jewel of the
<br>
Buddha's teachings; it employs methods of total identification with enlightenment for
<br>
quickest results. The teachings are presented in a relaxed, contemporary style that makes
<br>
them readily accessible to Westerners who want to know the nature of their mind.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Our Regular Program
<br>
<br>
Introduction to Buddhism – One Hour - 1st Saturday of each month - 2 pm
<br>
<br>
Whether you are interested in learning more about Buddhism or already know that you
<br>
want to meditate but aren’t sure how to start, this is the best way to get an idea of
<br>
what Buddhism is all about. There is always plenty of time for questions and answers.
<br>
<br>
Every Monday and Wednesday at 8 PM:
<br>
<br>
Guru Yoga Meditation on the 16th Karmapa. His name means “man of action”. We
<br>
meditate on him not as a human being but as an expression of space and our own
<br>
inherent Buddha nature. He gave this meditation especially for meditators in the West,
<br>
and it is the core meditation practiced at Diamond Way Buddhist Center.

<blockquote class="style1"><div align="center"></div>
<p><b>A</b><strong> very small number of Passionate
Thinkers</strong> are scheduled to attend our <em>Thoughtstorm®</em> sessions
to create and develop valuable ideas. (Dinner meetings at
7pm, Mondays in Mountain View.) </p>
<p><b>This
means</b> those special few will get more personal attention
and creative problem-solving interaction than can be delivered
in a larger, oversold group. <b>So
if you've ever considered</b> becoming one of the CognoScenti
(superior knowledge and understanding), now's the time. </p>
<p><b>Indeed,
to make sure our Thoughtstorm sessions stay small</b> (an announcement
like this could easily trigger a ton of registrations), I am
limiting these sessions to only 7 creative thinkers because
each 90-minute session is highly interactive... think MasterMind
on steroids!</p>
<p><b>To
qualify</b> for this group, please do the following:</p>
<p>___
<b>Download</b> and read the <b><a href="http://www.SeniorManagementServices.com/Images/ThoughtstormInvitationCL.pdf" rel="nofollow">Thoughtstorm
Invitation</a></b>. (An Acrobat PDF file.)</p>
<p>___
<b>Then</b>, call me at <b> (408) 817-5684</b> for time, location,
and other information. If I am not there I WILL return your
call! </p>
<p><b>Act
Fast! </b>I will accept no more than 7 qualified participants
for these Special Thoughtstorm Sessions. I haven't held sessions
this small since 1990. What an opportunity!</p>

<br>
May 22 at 7:00pm
<br>
Your child is your teacher and your mirror. He or she is showing you exactly what you need to look for within yourself. When you embrace and welcome this mirror, you begin to heal yourself and relate to your child in present time - but if you resist, you often get stuck in judgment, guilt, and frustration. In this lecture you will learn how to communicate with your child's higher self, see what their spirit needs and learn how to support them to become fully who they really are.
<br>
<br>
Class Teacher:
<br>
Pnina Zoharah has practiced the art of clairvoyance, intuitive healing and spiritual guidance for 16 years. Her ability to teach the wisdom of universal experience will allow you to let go and see the “Big Picture.” You will discover how to exist with the spiritual freedom you desire and gain the ability to follow your destiny.

]]> | <![CDATA[Are you concerned about the state of our world, the environment, education, politics and education?
<br>
<br>
Would you like to become part of a group of like minded individuals who discuss and explore effective ways of how to create positive change in life?
<br>
<br>
<br>
If you answer yes then I would like to invite you to our newly emerging learning and healing community for and by truth seekers (and speakers), teachers and students, artists, visionaries, co-creators and healers from different walks of life, belief systems and age groups who come together to learn from and with one another, work together, explore, relate and share personal learning experiences and philosophies and create a wonderful experience through creative activities, awareness exercises and inter-active dialogue during which we will explore:
<br>
<br>
* topics ranging from personal improvement, interpersonal relationships, conflict resolution, self esteem, anger and impulse control to human development, community building, inter-personal communication, mythology, the supernatural, philosophy, spirituality, psychology, the essence of healing, exercise, health, motivation, inspiration, empowerment and enlightenment,
<br>
<br>
* personal philosophies, belief systems and learning experiences,
<br>
<br>
* the fundamental laws (as well as the meaning..) of life, among them law of creation, the law of evolution, the law of attraction, the law of karma and the law of synchronicity,
<br>
<br>
* how to practically apply the knowledge, wisdom and insight we gain into how we live life.
<br>
<br>
<br>
In addition to this be-coming a community space, an outlet where people can express themselves, inter-act and network with other like minded individuals I would like to come up with a schedule for weekly seminars, workshops, group exercises and study meetings along the lines of personal and human development.
<br>
<br>
As an emerging community our success is based upon your collaboration, synergy, corporation and contributions. Participation is completely free of charge, but a small non-mandatory dontation based upon what you can afford and what you take away from the experience is highly appreciated. To create a more enjoyable experience for everyone please feel free to bring something to eat and drink to be shared with others in our group.
<br>
<br>
Meetings take place every Sunday at 4 pm in a very beautiful garden studio located in the Russian Hill area of San Francisco. Our group will consist of anywhere between 4- 10 people, not to exceed 15.
<br>
<br>
<br>
In addition to this physical experience I would also like to introduce you to the experience of virtual and global community building on www.paltalk.com . This voice and web cam enabled chat community provides the opportunity for anybody who is a member to either create their own room, or join an existing room under various categories such as Friends and Family, Sports, Politics, Social Issues, Spirituality, Languages and Distant Learning. Since paltalk is open to people around the world you can find any time of the day between 40.000 – 60.000 people gathered together in several thousand different room.
<br>
<br>
To provide an outlet for spiritually minded individuals to express themselves, listen to the philosophies, beliefs and view points of others and become inspired, motivated, empowered, enlightened and organized to create positive change in life I created 'A room for conscious rEvolution’ in December of 2005 , located under the category 'Religion & Spirituality' and 'Metaphysical': <a href="http://chat.paltalk.com/g2/group/920052976" rel="nofollow">http://chat.paltalk.com/g2/group/920052976</a>
<br>
<br>
This room combines an inter-active radio program, knowledge exchange, speak easy and school for experiental learning and attitudinal development. We are open during the early to late evening hours on weekdays, and various hours of the weekend, but my intention is to create a 24/7 online meeting room.
<br>
<br>
To participate all you need is a computer with speakers so you can follow the conversation in the room, and a microphone (but not necessary) if you would like to express your thoughts and ideas verbally. The capacity of the room is 200, so make sure to tell all your friends, co-workers, family members and loved-ones about this amazing experience in virtual and global community building.
<br>
<br>
As time goes on I would like to broadcast our physical meetings live via this online meeting room, and eventually I would also like to record our sessions so I can make the audio, and possibly video of our meeting available to you so you can review it at a later point.
<br>
<br>
<br>
I would also love to meet with you either on the phone or in person to discuss this opportunity further and to explore if you are a good fit for what we are trying to create.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for your time I am looking forward to be speaking to you soon.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In love and light,
<br>

All equipment and food is portaged via canoe to an isolated setting on the lake. Scouts cook their own meals, learn about woodcraft and have fun hiking, swimming and patrol activities.<br><br>
St. John's Presbyterian Church has sponsored <b>Troop 6 </b>since its founding in 1929. The church provides a safe place to hold meetings and to store the troop's canoes and equipment. <b>Troop 6 </b>welcomes all boys, regardless of where they live or their family or personal situation.<br><br>

With the holidays gone and having failed last year to stick to my New Years Resolution to lose weight and get healthier, I was once again unfit, overweight, uncomfortable, and desperate and determined to finally make a change for the better. <br><br><img src="http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee276/predispositionist/snakes.jpg" align="center"> <br><br>Well Spring is now here and I am sure there are some out there who are eager to shed some pounds, get in better shape, create some new healthy habits, and generally feel more comfortable in their clothing for the upcoming warmer weather. If this is you, the time to start is right now and I can help. <br><br>I am both a physician and personal trainer looking for 1-4 individuals (couple or group of friends, men or women o.k.) who are serious about trying to get in better shape over the next 12 week period. My team of trainers and I have the experience (with both myself and others) and the know how to help you achieve truly phenomenal and lasting results in a relatively short period of time. No gimmicks, no wonder pills. Shed pounds, and more importantly shed those horrible habits. <br>Requires minimum 4 hours per week catered around your schedule. You will work, you will eat, and you will lose weight/fat. <br><br>If interested please visit our website where you can learn more about our program. For those with broadband (DSL/Cable) there is even a short video which outlines our entire program: <br><img src="http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee276/predispositionist/watery.jpg" align="center"> <br>If you are still not ready to get off the weight gain merry-go-round, I totally understand. As you can see from my pictures, I too rode it for many years. Just remember, I have been where you are, and know the exact path to get you where you want to go. If you think you are ready, I look forward to being your guide. Either way, I wish you and yours the best in 2008. <br>

Do you have a perspective on the concept of the "Talented Tenth"? Are you able to intelligently debate topics such as gentrification, class-struggle, and Ward Conneley? Do you believe that there is such a thing as the Black Bourgeoisie, and if so do they have a responsibility to others than themselves?
<br>
<br>
If you have an affirmative answer to any of these questions then the Bay Area Black Intellectual's Forum is desperately seeking you. This is a new community that is forming out of a growing interest and hunger for debate and dialogue about critical issues affecting the state of Black Affairs in the Bay Area.
