Practical Philosophy Ten-week Course
Our ten-week course allows people to draw on the wisdom of both East and West, share insights and meet like-minded people seeking to know and understand themselves, others and the world better.
The School of Philosophy Kingston is part of an educational charity founded in 1937 in the belief that there is such a thing as truth and that it can be discovered by each of us and aspects of this can be taught with a view to helping people live happier, more fulfilled lives. The aim of philosophy is to set you free. Free from everyday pressures and worries; free to grow and be yourself; free to discover the unique, extraordinary person that you really are. This ten-week course explores what it means to be a happy and fulfilled human being in the world today. You will have an opportunity to hear and practise what the wise from both east and west say about human potential and through everyday observation put their words and ideas to the test. Practical Philosophy embraces the search for self-knowledge, happiness, love, freedom and the simple joy of being - not just as wise concepts but in one's own experience. It presents a real opportunity for Self-development and for restoring the balance in our own life and the lives of our families and communities. Learning to discern true knowledge from untrue knowledge, especially about oneself, can reveal a centre of calm within yourself and a new kind of connectedness. You will also enjoy the support and good company of a group of like-minded people. We are a long-established charity; our wonderful staff are very experienced and all offer their time voluntarily. All are welcome, whatever age, culture or background and no prior knowledge is required. See more and enrol on our website: www.schoolofphilosophykingston.org
