The planning for the 12 Year Retreat continues and the composition and content is looking exciting. Following on from the input in the Survey (and at Wellspring), we now have some key components and fun activities. This post is to get your input and engagement for the proposed sessions and to ask about pacing at→
Arriving delighted, awakening, in-over, adjusting, fruiting, inquiring how are you, asked of humanity, how are we, asked within humanity, how is our humanity, asked with humanity, understanding the question, conditions for its answering, ability to receive the answer, existential answerings, conditioned by their asking, eliciting another’s experience, discovering phenomenologically, who were you, what feels you,→

Thank you for completing the survey on thoughts and preferences for our planning for the Annual Practice Retreat. The survey was designed (mostly) to prompt some thinking and (as usual) gauge initial responses as an inquiry to see what (if anything at all) is needed. Some detail of the responses is set out below. The→

This post is an update on how the design of the Pre-requisites and Preliminaries modules for apitholo are progressing. What we thought was a simple matter of offering some basics (much like Day 1 of the 10Y Event) has developed into a deeper inquiry. There is some richness in this that I’d like to share→

This is an update about plans for new learning forms in Apithology. You will remember that at one point we did an Audit of Apithology Artifacts. In that blog post, which co-incidentally was on 26 January 2013 (i.e. 3 years ago), we organised the panoply of materials from the first decade of Apithology practice into a logical→
In the post on the membership transition for the Apithology Practitioner Forum is a list of requisites for practice which will be required to receive the benefits that come from Practitioner status.
