Have you ever been to a Sydney networking event and got stuck talking to someone for ages and you were too polite to say anything?!

Didn't know when or how to ask for someone's business card?

Do you want to meet new people but don't feel like going by yourself?

Have you ever had to sit through a long-winded speech at a Sydney networking event which didn't even apply to you?

If you can understand any of those, then that's how Free Speed Networking started in Sydney.

Why do people go?

2. Career and Social Networking - Mix with like minded people in a fun environment.

How is Free Speed Networking Sydney different?

Everyone will meet at least 10 different people a night

Perfect for attending by yourself because everyone will be encouraged to meet someone new anyhow!

Zen Spiritual Awakening, Cultivation and Network

Sydney, au

Zen Spiritual Awakening, Cultivation and Network
The group is for people to meet, discuss, share and help each other for Spiritual Growth, Cultivation and Network. We know that we have body, mind and spirit. The body is tangible and will go through birth, sickness, aging, and death. It also has duality, there is men and women and it lives in the physical world. Mind is intangible, but still has duality. There are positive/negative thoughts. The spirit is intangible and beyond duality. Lao Tzu used Tao to refer to origin of creation and the pure spirit within each one of us. Buddha called the pure spirit as Buddha nature, meaning everyone can reach Buddhahood or enlightenment. It is referred to as the image of God in Bible and spirit of Allah in Koran. The more modern terms can be pure awareness or pure consciousness. Even though there are different names, they all point to the same pure nature within us. The analogy of sun and clouds is one of my favourites. The pure nature can be likened to the sun, which is always emitting light regardless of sunny days, cloudy days or stormy days. The vexations such as anger, resentment, greed, ignorance, attachment to fame, possessions...etc. can be liken to clouds that can temporarily obscure the light from the pure nature. However, once they are blown away, the light or wisdom from the pure nature will shine again. The spiritual cultivation is the journey to awaken to the pure nature within us and how to blow away clouds of delusions to let the wisdom or light to flow from the pure nature without hindrance, which lead us to a life with joy, ease and love while living in this dualistic world. We use Zen teachings as a starting point and are open to any other teachings, such as those from Buddha, Jesus, Confucius, Lao Tzu...etc. and life experiences and wisdom from within each one of us. Buddha reached Buddhahood more than 2500 years ago and realised that all sentient beings have Buddha nature and can reach Buddhahood if they find and restore Buddha nature and follow it at all times instead of following desires and egotistic thoughts. The Flower Sermon is a story of the origin of Zen Buddhism in which Gautama Buddha transmits direct prajñā (wisdom) to the disciple Mahākāśyapa ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_Sermon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_Sermon)) In the story, the Buddha gives a wordless sermon to his disciples (sangha) by holding up a white flower. No one in the audience understands the Flower Sermon except Mahākāśyapa, who smiles. Within Zen, the Flower Sermon communicates the ineffable nature of tathātā (suchness) and Mahākāśyapa's smile signifies the direct transmission of wisdom without words. The Buddha affirmed this by saying: I possess the true Dharma eye, the marvelous heart of Nirvana, the true form of the formless, the subtle Dharma Gate that does not rest on words or letters but is a special transmission outside of the scriptures. This I entrust to Mahākāśyapa. About 1000 years later, the 28th Patriarch Bodhidharma was told by 27th Patriarch there to go to ancient China to find a successor and transmit the true Dharma eye. He was called by people in China at that time the first Patriarch. The book platform sutra is recorded with sixth Patriarch's teachings. There is great mystery and wisdom in it and the group is aiming to study, discuss and understand it and apply in life for awakening the original Buddha nature in each of us. Welcome to join us and study, discuss, practice and share understanding and realizations with each other so that wisdom of Buddha and Zen can be applied in life and cultivate spirituality.

We use Tao Te Ching as a starting point and are open to any other teachings, such as those from Buddha, Jesus, Confucius, Lao Tzu...etc. and life experiences and wisdom from within each one of us. Tao is the origin of creation and Tao is within each one of us too. It's the matter whether one can find it and following it instead of following desires and egotistic thoughts. If one can find it and use it in every moment, one unites with Tao, which is beyond life and death. There is also great wisdom in Tao that can be applied to solve vexations in life and help people elevate their spirituality. Lao Tzu wrote Tao Te Ching about 3000 years ago. Amazingly, the wisdom revealed in it is great and profound and can be applied by people in modern days. Welcome to join the online or in person study group to study, discuss, understand and share realization and how to apply it in daily life. After discussion, people can understand and apply the wisdom of Tao in life and resonate with the Tao within each one of us.

Christian Singles Network

Sydney, au

Christian Singles Network

We are single men and women who want to expand our network, fellowship with one another on a social level, and learn about each other's experiences as we live and share in this stage of our life, living out our Christian faith

I hope to run a variety of different meetups that encourage getting to know all the members in different settings, including:

- Fortnightly meetups that are interactive and inclusive, discussing a topic of interest related to being a Christian single in this time and age. 

- Social outings including dinners, ice-skating, picnics, fun and games, tennis, outdoor adventures, themed parties...

- Special guest speakers on relevant topics 

As well as promote and attend/serve at externally organised events together eg. CMS Summer School, Easter Convention, volunteering and missions, evangelism and outreach, SMBC Hot Topics, Alpha course, Croydon Summer Club...

I want the focus to be on running the Christian race and building community so that each member can have a home and family in this group to journey this phase of life with, as opposed to just a Christian dating meetup.

To sum up...

I'm hopeful that this will be an exciting place to pursue an undivided devotion to the Lord, while having lots of fun and building great relationships in an atmosphere that fosters spiritual growth!

In the world's eyes, being single can be viewed as a bad thing, but the Bible paints a much more meaningful picture of this station on life! It is a time to grow our faith and serve God with all of our hearts.

Join us as we celebrate and seize this special time in our life together!
