STUDY GROUPS
Letters by Bülent Rauf
Weekly on Tuesdays
21:00–22:00 GMT/BST
An online study and reading of the Letters of Bülent Rauf.
This is an existing group and we have been reading several texts over a few years. When we begin a new text, we do not set a limited number of weeks for its study but simply follow the text and our conversation. Over time some members have left and others have joined. There is a limited number of places for new members. We warmly welcome anyone who wishes to join us.
Participants will need to have a copy of the Letters, which can be purchased from here: https://beshara.org/publications-letters-21/
The group spans the time zones of Australia, New Zealand, UK and America
