<h3>Synopsis</h3><p>Another fun Saturday morning with Pierre and members of the NS. We continue our discussion from <a href="https://archive.org/details/20210430NSFRI" rel="nofollow">last night</a> regarding the wording of Pierre's exhortation to practice (internal) phronesis. Barbara also brings in three great quotes on phronesis from Plato's <em>Republic</em>, and at end Pierre dialogues with Sayon over Sayon's OBE's and recommends Sayon read Plotinus who has the same question: What Am I Doing Back in This Body?</p><h3>Highlights</h3><ul><li>Phronesis vs perfectionism, continued, with Barbara and Jeff</li><li>Most fully, most good, in the moment.</li><li>Calling on the SElf to emerge, purely, to do this curious thing in the spirit of Good-ness</li><li>Simple, powerful, over time, it will achieve its result</li><li>10:38 What is Science?</li><li>Continuing discovery</li><li>10:57 Can you think of a time when this expression can fit your experience?
