Saturday, 4th July, 8pm AEST 
Saturday Sangha

Dear COS Family.
You are warmly invited to join Liz, Lena and Ana Maria for another lovely Saturday Sangha.

Usually on our regular Saturday Sangha, there will be an opening and reflection from either one or two facilitators, followed by around 20 minutes for there to be whole group sahrings on what has been discussed. After this there is a guided meditation to conclude the session.

More information will be provided soon...

We hope you can join us 

Our theme for July 2026 is:
The Insight that Brings Us to the Other Shore
Understanding the Sutra: verse 5

The Eighteen Realms of Phenomena
Which are the six Sense Organs
Six Sense Objects
And six Sense Consciousnesses
Are also not separate self-entities.

In the sutras we learn that everything is found within the eighteen realms of elements composed of the six sense organs, the six sense objects, and the six sense consciousnesses. … But thanks to modern science, we know that the universe is not just what we perceive with our five senses. We now know that all of our senses are quite limited

So, biology and physics help us to remove our dualistic view of mind and matter, psyche and soma, so that we are able to see the reciprocal and interbeing connection of body and mind. … Whenever we look up at the sky and see the moon, the stars and the galaxies, we have to practice to see that these things are not independent of consciousness. Everything in the cosmos has consciousness in it
