Number 34 - Transcending Background Suffering

Hi all, so basically its pretty simple. I want to suffer less and grasp Peters teachings from his book "Ending Unnecessary Suffering" more deeply. I learn better or more when I am with a group of people holding me accountable and on track. So i am putting this out here seeing who is interested. The idea: I want to do this reading/working circle. It's an experiment lasting from 1st July 2026 till end of February 2027. We want to be done with the book by then, so we'll divide it into parts that let us actually get through it in that time. Beginning of the week we read a small portion of the book. We contemplate it throughout the week. We talk about it during our weekly meeting and contemplate it together some more. Then we read some more and repeat the process slowly working through the book. Hopefully learning a great deal from one another. Language will be English. I operate in Berlin time, so meeting times will be planned loosely around that, but exact slot depends on who joins and where you're from. Group size: max 10, but I'd rather have 5-6 people who really have the drive for this and want to work through it properly. Not looking for a big crowd, looking for people who take it somewhat seriously. Prior knowledge of Peter's work is welcome but not strictly required. If you're planning on doing the Consciousness Apprentice Program 2027, you're definitely welcome to join. Am I qualified to facilitate any kind of insight?Absolutely not! I am just as ignorant and suffer like you guys. But I am not aiming to facilitate a consciousness anyway. My goal is to hold a container where people who are interested in this stuff can engage with the work regularly.Authorities in the matter are the book and hopefully your experience. My history with Peters work: - 5 week fall workshop series - Participated in one ICG facilitated by a former Apprentice of Peter - I read the Book of Not Knowing - Tons of YT videos - Not enlightened So if you are interested in such an undertaking reach out to me! I'll figure out a schedule (weekly meeting time etc) once I know who's coming and based on where in the world people are from.

Generally, people are stuck in a great deal of false realities that produce struggle, suffering, and discontent. Increasing consciousness frees us from this falsely limited world so we can access greater freedom and happiness, not to mention gain more effectiveness and creativity. Becoming more conscious takes investigation, learning, and contemplation. We provide these tools and support.” — Peter Ralston
