Dear Chris, Thanks for your words of encouragement! More important than you may realize.

Fantastic Peter...OST is used extensively around the world to support ongoing communities of practice, be they professional, community-based or spiritual (or all three in the case of some!). Meeting in Open Space over an extended period of time is a great way to facilitate deep learning and exploration...everything you have written in your invitation, and meeting IN Open Space to talk about LIVING in Open Space is a perfect fit. I can't offer you anything more than encouragement at this point, and thanks for a nice example of a crisp invitation.

(I am retired from GM.) Since then my wife Esther and I have participated in several OS events and even facilitated a couple ourselves. We have also been active in alternative conscious explorations. This list, of many we subscribe to, seems most open to new thinking and hence we ask for your help. We have this idea and hunger to LIVE more fully in OpenSpace, having reached all kinds of limits in "regular" organizations and we are thinking about placing the following announcement/ad in the Mountain Xpress and Spirit In The Smokies (which are alternative press vehicles) here in Asheville North Carolina. We would appreciate suggestions/input/ideas and thoughts relative to our approach. We would also appreciate hearing more on how you LIVE daily in OpenSpace. Here is the piece we have constructed so far: "CENTER for BEING 828-298-5800: Sundays 11:00 am - 12:30. A leaderless alternative to organized religion in Asheville. Being and practicing conscious presence together as One. Facilitated only by spirit or intelligence. Together, in a circle, we explore and practice deep listening, sensitivity, synchronicity, spontaneity -- sharing from our hearts & minds. Based on Aquarian Age and New Millennium truths in such modern manuscripts as: "The Power of Now" & "Stillness Speaks" by Eckhart Tolle; "Beyond Belief, The Secret Gospel of Thomas" by Elaine Pagels," Harry Potter" by J. K. Rawlings and others."
