In the vast ocean of spirituality, the WATTS Group seeks a clear current—one that carries us toward deeper questions of existence and consciousness. Here, we explore with open curiosity and a spirit of inquiry, inviting the evidence of our experience to guide us.
Our Purpose
The WATTS Group offers a space for active minds seeking lively, meaningful conversations beyond the distractions of daily life. Together, we engage with timeless questions about purpose, consciousness, and morality.
Drawing inspiration from science’s exploration of the external world and philosophy’s journey into the inner world, we seek to uncover how these realms intertwine.
“Philosophy is empty if it isn’t based on science. Science discovers, philosophy interprets.” — Albert Einstein
Activities and Format
- Monthly Gatherings: In-person book club meetings centered on a selected book, fostering discussions designed to provoke insight and connection.
- Online Conversations: Regular video calls for engaging discussions, complemented by an invite-only, privately hosted forum we are piloting.
- Creative Reflection: Planned gatherings, like coffee or tea gatherings with calligraphy practice, for a relaxed and reflective experience.
- 🪷 Digital Garden: Our online knowledge base supports group activities by providing summaries of books, popular quotes, and resources to deepen engagement and understanding.
Each gathering offers its own flavor. Join what speaks to you, and whatever integrates best with your life.
