AI+Wisdom: Closing Gathering

About This Event

For seven days, people from around the world sat with the hardest questions of our time: What happens when intelligence accelerates faster than wisdom can grow? When machines start doing things we once thought required a soul? When the gap between what we can build and what we understand keeps widening?

We didn't rush toward answers. We practiced together. We encountered the "alien" — and sometimes, ourselves. We explored coherence at every level: personal, social, systemic, universal. 

Something shifted for many.

One podmate began the week declaring, "I'm opposed to AI and I hate it." By Day 2, she wrote: "I am experiencing the non-duality of existence. Technology is us. There is no separation." Another asked a tree and then asked ChatGPT the same question — and discovered what his compass had known all along.

This Sunday, we gather one last time — not to conclude, but to share our inspirations, insights and intuitions: What feels like it is mine to do?

To join us, simply RSVP below and you'll receive call details by email. If timezone conflicts make it hard to attend live, RSVP anyway to receive the recording.

Thank you for practicing together — for the courage to sit with questions that have no easy answers, and the heart to translate the emerging insights into compassionate action in your circles of care.
