Seminars & Sessions

There are tri-weekly meet-ups lasting roughly an hour, where we discuss various topics and plan virtual and in-person events internationally! Spreading awareness of the meaning and purpose of life by giving rise to the notion of critical thinking cements the idea of discipline. This happens through deep learning and active analysis of events that happen in the world around us. If we do our part to vocalize this, we can foster a more thoughtful world, uplifted by healthy approaches¹ in life.

Approaches¹: problem-solving in math that allows for this sort of cognizance, stimulated by intuition.

Purpose

Ponder and Yonder! emphasizes critical thinking because with critical thinking comes discipline. How? Critical thinking sprouts sincere consideration of the defining aspects that make up the world. With this sort of awareness, people naturally open up to perspective in a way that shifts their attitude towards life, which allows for selflessness and discipline. This seems rather idealistic, right? Not so much, actually. Realistically, it is very difficult to capture one’s true will to try something of this nature. Having brought together over 1,000 participants from all over the world (many of whom did not even recognize math or philosophy beyond arithmetic) to explore mathematics, Ponder and Yonder! is available for users internationally in the most feasible way: via the World Wide Web. As Ponder and Yonder! continues to grow, everyone of us is cultivating this idea of thinking carefully about the dynamic world in which we all live.

Suggestions? Ideas?

If you have any suggestions or ideas, please join and let me know! I’ve had very nice suggestions, and, most recently, I have updated this website to include blogs that work alongside the newsletter to discuss global events discussed in articles.

Meetings are typically conducted via Zoom. We come together to discuss for an hour and a half (+/- 10 or so minutes) about handouts, hosting certain events (competitions, fairs, etc.), global events, and much more. Occasionally, for local events, there are in-person meetings where we meet to plan some form of service.

How does this look like?
