Glenda Contemplating TLM Book Club
Beginnings and Endings and Beginnings

The Living Method Book Club: Grokking With Glenda, the Language of The Living Method, has been an amazing opportunity and experience for me. This body-mind has had the privilege of experiencing the inexpressible awe and wonder of being a vessel for the flow of truth through the Glenda unit and the participants in this series.

I had no preconceived notions of what the book club would look like. My only intention was that I be a guide for the book club to be what the participants wanted. There was an intention, perhaps, for this club to be an experience different from Satsang. There was an opening for being a space of intimacy and interaction of the apparent several of us, with each other.

The space that was created was of having conversation, like when family is sitting at the dinner table (without the drama that we may also associate with family at the dinner table – LOL).  There was the opening for cross conversation by the participants and I served as a sometimes source of clarification. It was amazing that mostly I got to validate the clarity that was shared. Someone would speak and what had been said inspired someone else to speak (either to reflect on what was said, question it, or add to it). It was beautiful.

Interestingly enough, the text in Fred’s, The Book of Nothing, inspired conversation about that which cannot be spoken of. The book was a jumping off point for going deeper into grokking true nature. I thought it was amusing that for a book club, we didn’t spend all that much time talking about the book as much as we talked about direct experiencing. The participants loved having a space for talking about truth. It was expressed that this type of conversation has been a missing link in the community.

Sometimes we started the sessions with an exercise exploring experiencing and the mysterious source, so to speak, of this all. The exercises opened the door for inquiring into this wonderful mystery.

I wonder how the second series of The Living Method Book Club will unfold. The Book of Undoing will be our inspiration. This book is a mock awakening session. What better opportunity can there be for delving into The Living Method and Awakening Clarity Now!!! I hope to see many of you there when the book club starts on June 12, 2024.

Only love,

Glenda
