Silence

[Douglas D. Germann, Sr.]

Hi--

What is the role of silence in OST and the Open Space life?

It seems to me silence is rich, full of panoramas of colors and sounds and
tastes.

How important is silence in your day?

Have you seen it used by any of the groups for whom you've led an OS?

                              :-Doug. Germann

PS: This Tuesday a few of us are gathering for an open telephone
conversation on this subject.

Would you be so kind as to pass this invitation on to the people who need
to see it?

Thanks!

                              :-Doug.

Hi--

Can we make further and deeper use of silence in our work?

      Silence is a delicious thing for our meditation and
      contemplation; so how can we use silence, and let silence
      use us, in our work as teachers and nurturers of Spirit?

This is a telephone gathering where each of us can engage all of us, to
learn how others are using silence, and together to invent new ways.

      If you wish, I will offer my learning from a recent
      retreat I led for a group of Quakers; also a story
      of an encounter that sheds some silence on light.

Please join us for this mutual exploration. e-mail me to reserve your space
and get the number to call.

                              :-Doug. Germann
