EVER WONDERED WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO LIVE A RICHER AND MORE MEANINGFUL LIFE?
The Schools of Practical Philosophy are not-for-profit, non-religious centres for practical knowledge and spiritual inquiry that have been operating in Australia for over 50 years.
Courses offered online via Zoom and Face-to-Face
LEARN HOW TO APPLY PHILOSOPHY TO YOUR LIFE, NOT JUST THEORY, BUT IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS.
The Wisdom Within is the first course at Practical Philosophy Australia. It will introduce you to the world's great philosophical teachings, show you ways of accessing a lasting happiness beyond material gain and help you to realise the unifying power of love.
You will consider where true wisdom is found; what it means to come to a greater understanding of yourself and your states of awareness; how justice is relevant to a meaningful life, and what the present moment means in practical terms.
ONLINE OR FACE-TO-FACE
The course format is live with a dedicated tutor either online or face-to-face.
During each session you'll have the opportunity to interact with the tutor as well as your fellow students.
Together you will explore the core questions about life and existence; experiment with exercises in mindfulness and discover how easily you can access the wisdom you already have within you.
