What makes a person different than a rock (and different from every other inanimate object)? Or are we so different after all? Isn't the human body nothing more than a machine which is ultimately comprised of mere molecules and atoms? In what sense, if any, does a person consist of more than his or her physical body? Does a person have a soul? If so, then what do we mean by “soul” and what might the nature of a soul be? In short, what is the phenomena that we call “consciousness?” Moreover, how …

My Life has changed since I have started a daily meditation practice 14 years ago. More balance, more acceptance, deeper relaxation, just a feeling of “now I am looking in the right direction”. The new direction is that I am now taking responsibility for all of my experiences, thoughts and emotions. When something seems to go wrong, of course the first tendency still may be to blame someone or something not being the way it should be. But now with the meditation practice, the remembrance kicks i …

The idea behind this group is to offer a place for people interested in wine to experience wine together. Learning about wine on your own is tough and I find quick tastings at wine shops or huge crowded wine events equally unhelpful. Here we can have a small group, take our time, and get to know more about wines and each other. Whether you know nothing about wine or you're an expert, all that matters is that you're interested. My hope is to do small group tastings that I know I always want to d …
