SYNOPSIS
HOLISTIC MEDITATION
Synopsis is a playground where we actively not build up a narrative or a story in our heads either on our own or as a group. We just let things happen without trying to make sense of them.
synopsis (n.) 1610s, "a general view, an outline," from Late Latin synopsis "a synopsis," from Greek synopsis "a general view," literally "a seeing altogether, a seeing all at once," from syn- "together" (see syn-) + opsis "sight, appearance," from PIE root *okw- "to see.” also from 1610s
Actively not building up a narrative or stories is not there as a rule, it is out of a deep understanding of how we normally operate. This understanding is explored fully in Holistic Dialogue.
Even though SYNOPSIS came through Tripute's development as a holistic collective, it's not directly linked to anything that came before it. It is on its own in that sense. While it is thought to fit with Tripute's mission, you don't have to accept that as your own.
We meet online once every two weeks on Wednesdays at 7PM CET.
After the usual greetings and small talk when everyone arrives, the facilitator will start the process with some opening remarks. While we actively not build a story or a narrative, each one is free to share what comes up with them whenever they feel like doing so.
Further Resources
A selection of meetings have been recorded and shared as a book (Paid) and a podcast (Free) and for those of us who are curious about the roots of SYNOPSIS, checking out our Holistic Dialogue (HD) page could be of interest.
The Facilitator's Role
Welcoming everyone joining.
Starting the process.
Remind the group whenever a story or narrative is noticed to be built.
Help clear up any confusion or question about the process.
A great deal has been said about meditation, about our collective conditioning and about philosophy, the love for truth. However, very little, if anything, has been seen to be done - not as in practiced but actually done! This book is just that. At the very least, it is a generally honest attempt to do so - and at best it might be a rare proof that it is in fact possible.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
It's hard to fully grasp meditation, as we're still exploring it. SYNOPSIS emerged naturally from years of dialogue and holistic dialogue, so it's not a practice for us with promised benefits but a process we are seeing through. The question of what meditation truly is aligns with our core mission.
Basically, no. However, digging into thoughts, emotions, sensations, etc, changes our perception and overall experience, making meditation more about understanding instead a practice. So, SYNOPSIS is believed to benefit from this work.
It could quite possibly be the case to one and not to another. If the reasons why are clear then it is not a method because refraining from building a narrative is not there to reach a particular outcome but it comes out from a seeing that took place during our explorations and investigations.
No. This is a purely experimental space and we are in no control of what happens to it other than what already is outlined in the space description already shared on our website.
