A NEW philosophical group will seek to provide insight and answers to some of life\u2019s great questions.<\/p>\n
Spearheaded by local resident Michael Bohuslav, the group will meet every Thursday night at the Torquay Community House to offer wisdom and guidance for those seeking it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m involved with a few groups but they run during the day time. I began to get a lot of feedback from people wanting to attend the sessions but they worked so were unable to get there,\u201d Mr Bohuslav said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI got a sense that there\u2019s a great community interest now surrounding philosophy, all the work I do is voluntary \u2013 I just love the subject. It\u2019s had a huge impact on my life over the years and the people I\u2019ve worked with have indicated the same.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe discuss over active minds and getting too emotional one way or the other, be it anger or stress. When we understand why we tick we can learn how to react and respond better, ultimately not to overreact and in turn, live more peaceful lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
Having studied and taught philosophical wisdom for the past 25 years across Melbourne, Geelong and Torquay, Mr Bohuslav is looking forward to providing a sense of direction.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are a lot of people searching for something but they are unsure what, they don\u2019t know it but they\u2019re looking for truth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cPhilosophical wisdom that has been accumulated over thousands of years.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only antidote for all human problems is philosophy \u2013 a love of truth and wisdom.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy making wiser decisions based on truth we can lead happier lives.<\/p>\n
\u201cVery few people have found peace and happiness of mind by themselves, there\u2019s a saying that goes \u2018when the student is ready, the teacher appears\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cAvail yourself this opportunity and attend these discussion evenings.\u201d<\/p>\n
No qualifications are necessary to attend, sessions start on April 19 and will run from 7-9pm. For more information, phone
