Beginner's Mind: Philosophy Salon
If you speak to someone who is spiritually curious or part of a spiritual tradition, you will likely hear about Beginner's Mind. The concept is both young - introduced to the West in the 70s - and ancient, as old as the cosmos and our search for meaning in life. Beginner's Mind is a doctrine but also a subtle shift. It can radically change perception and how we imagine, think, and feel. While the concept itself is wonderful and clear, it is often misunderstood - with confusion about its meaning circulating through blogs and podcasts. In this Philosophy Salon, we will look at Beginner's Mind in a new way: is it for everyone, is it truly powerful, and what does it reveal about our purpose in life?

Philosophy Salons
The Philosophy Salons are gatherings of curious people to explore big ideas with an open mind. The Philosophy Salons are organized by Anya Farennikova, a philosopher of mind based in Amsterdam. We dive deep into beliefs and ideas, dive out, and have fun along the way!
