We meet Saturdays from 10:15 to 11:30 am in the Arts & Cras Room. e Human Dharma is a whole new philosophy of life and way of living based on certain truth(s). Om is the Central Truth of e Human Dharma. Om has ree Sub-Truths, i.e. First Truth: 'Om is e Whole'; Second Truth: 'Om is e Prime Energy Channel within which e Whole Moves'; and ird Truth: 'Om is e Prime Principle of Living'. From each of these Truths, there is a derivative Practice, through which the Practitioner feels the sheer bliss of the divine Truth of Om, its energy, and health benets. e Human Dharma way of living is a value-oriented life with short-term goals; and daily objectives of a rich, healthy, happy, and meaningful life. ere are ve eternal human values that give direction, purpose and meaning to a human's life. ese are family, education, work, marriage, and child. e entire Human Dharma is summarized in the form of a daily prayer that incorporates the truth of om with its related practices, and the Human Dharma way of living. Class Topics: Class 1, A Talk on e Human Dharma (What is Dharma, What is the Human Dharma?); Class 2, Daily Prayer (Summary of Human Dharma in prose form); Class 3, Om Meditation; Class 4, Breathing Exercise (Breathe by Om); Class 5, Om Japa (Recitation of the Sacred Word Om); Class 6, Live by asking myself constantly, 'What am I Doing? What am I Feeling? What am I inking?' And, rest of the times say a silent Om to myself. ~ Sushma Puri, thehumandharma@gmail.com ACRYLIC PAINTING THE HUMAN DHARMA Solera 4x4 is a group dedicated to providing opportunities for Solera residents who have 4x4 street-legal vehicles, including Jeeps, Broncos, Tacomas, Fords, Chevys, and others, to enjoy time on the road together. We meet, usually, on the second Wednesday of the month at 4:30 pm in the Clubhouse, and the gatherings usually last for 30 to 45 minutes. We discuss a myriad of subjects, mostly where we'd like to travel in SoCal. We typically head to a destination on Tuesdays or Wednesdays around 9:30 or 10 am for lunch and return soon after, so the trips are not of a very long duration unless we head to Borrego or some similar destination. Recent trips include the metal statues in Borrego, Wrightwood, and to the Patton Museum on Chiriacco Summit off the 10. We've visited Joshua Tree NP and Slab City at the Salton Sea as well. Once in a while, and randomly, we'll take off on a ride on an easy dirt trail in our local areas, usually a forest road or a maintenance road of some kind. Most trails are rated 1-10 and if we do a dirt trail we'll tackle the 1's and 2's. We typically head to a destination on Tuesdays or Wednesdays around 9:30 or 10 am for lunch and return soon after, so the trips are not of a very long duration unless we head to Borrego or some similar destination. We hope you can visit a meeting soon. If you have any questions, please text me, Tom Addis, at (858) 775-7421, call the same number, or email me at taddis@pgahq.com. Hope to hear from you and see you soon. SOLERA 4x4
