Tuesday Evenings
with Don Oakley
August 5, 2025
at 1-2 pm & 6:30 - 7:30 pm Eastern Time
LIVE on Zoom
"What Have You Got to Lose?"

Don presents free online programs on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays each month on Zoom at 1:00 pm Eastern (US) time and at 6:30 pm Eastern Time.
These talks are an invitation to look within for yourself at life's most important questions rather than a philosophical exposition. It is an opportunity to inquire into the timeless, unchanging essence of our existence.
There is no charge or registration requirement. There will be a brief introductory guided meditation, a 20 minute discourse and 30 minutes for your questions.
These talks are non-denominational and are a direct pointing to one's own true nature.

"Naturally, we often seek in the spirit of what can I gain, such as more peace, more equanimity, and more joy. So, it is somewhat counter-intuitive to ask, "What have I got to lose?" However, it is sometimes necessary to jettison the non-essential to find true peace, equanimity and joy."
