The Spiritual Naturalist Society works to build SN communities and help foster and promote helpful and happy interactions among Spiritual Naturalists from all traditions. Some of these include asynchronous interactions (those which participants post in their own time, like social media – see here) – and then we have events, which are our synchronous interactions (those which participants interact simultaneously, such as online video chats, face-to-face meetups, live chats, etc). The following are our upcoming events and how you can join us!
Please note, a first step in most of these is signing up as a member of the Spiritual Naturalist Society, which you can do quick and easily HERE.
CONVERGENCE – Live Online Conference – Nov 7-8
The Spiritual Naturalist Society warmly invites you to Convergence, a free two-day online gathering dedicated to exploring the many ways people find meaning, wonder and ethical inspiration within a naturalistic understanding of the world. Click HERE to learn more and register today!
Meditation Group
Held over Zoom, our meditations are usually led by Rick Heller or KaZ Akers. They often draw from Buddhist and Hindu traditions, but are strictly secular. The hour-long sessions generally include 20 minutes of meditation as well as a discussion. Beginners are welcome. The sessions most often take place on the second Tuesday at 7 pm Eastern / 6 pm Central, but can sometimes be moved to another day due to holidays or other concerns. Dates are announced on this Meetup page. RSVP to get the Zoom link.
Social/Discussion Group
We hold a monthly discussion where you can meet other members of the Spiritual Naturalists. Often, the topic of the discussion is one of the articles we’ve published. Sometimes, the article’s author is in attendance. The date of the meeting and topic of discussion is announced on this Meetup page. RSVP to get the Zoom link.
Monthly Satsang
Join us on the 3rd Wednesday of each month, from 6:30pm-8pm Central, for a ritualized meditation, a short reading, and contemplative mindful dialog hosted by Daniel Strain. A link to join will be posted shortly before the event on our SNS Members email group, which all members are invited to join (if you are a member and have not joined this list, please contact us). If you would like to prepare for the event, click this link for the program.
SNS Council Meeting
Each 3rd Tuesday of the month the SNS Council meets to plan and decide on the activities and direction of the organization. While only Council members vote, all members are welcome to sit in if they would like. If you are a member of the Society and would like to attend, please contact us and ask to be sent a link.
