Events

The Deep Philosophy Group offers a variety of activities to the general public, among them:

ONLINE SESSIONS: We meet online (on Zoom) in small groups, usually for one mini-session on Wednesdays (about 30 minutes) and one full session on Fridays (about 75 minutes). Together we contemplate on a short philosophical text and resonate with it in a personal way.

RETREATS: Participants stay together in a retreat house for a long weekend of intense contemplative activity. Groups are of about 10-20 participants, and they are guided by our facilitators through a process of deepening philosophical contemplation.

NEW  ONLINE  COURSES

NEW ONLINE COURES open from time to time. For information, write to us at deep.philo@yahoo.com. Participation is open to all. No philosophical background is needed.

NEW ONLINE COURSES: What is Deep Philosophy?

In Deep Philosophy we contemplate from our inner depth on basic life-issues (philosophical issues) in togetherness.

In April 2024 we will start a series of online courses on the theory and practice of Deep Philosophy.
