This 6 week
program is based on the video series: The Earth's Imagination
by Brian Swimme, PhD., professor of cosmology at CIIS. The focus
is on what the evolution of the universe and the evolutionary
nature of human beings teach us about how our species can best
participate in shaping a vibrant Earth community. At each gathering,
we will view a 30 minutes video segment and then discuss the key
points of Brian's teachings: centering on how major transformations
in the evolution of the universe and planet Earth have brought
the human to this unique and challenging time in evolutionary
history and our challenge in the future evolution of life on this
planet. We will introduce the Earth Charter as a document providing
principles to guide us on our journey. Your presence and participation
is invited; join us for this stimulating and thought-provoking
series. Are you open to the challenge?
Facilitator
for this series is Connie Mahoney, PhD. Connie is the founder
of Earth Elders, a long-time spiritual quester and environmental
activist. At 57, she received her doctorate in sociology from
UCSF; at 60, she participated in a 10 day vision quest. Most recently,
she studied with Joanna Macy, Ram Dass, Thomas Berry, Sr. Miriam
McGillis and Brian Swimme.
Cost: $75
