SUMMARY:Recovering the Sacred
DESCRIPTION:Recovering the Sacred \n\n\n\nwith Anne Baring\, Bernard Carr\, Matthijs Cornelissen\, Alex Gomez-Marin\, Jeremy Lent\, David Lorimer\, Iain McGilchrist\, Peter Reason\, Mary-Jayne Rust \n\n\n\nCurated by John Pickering \n\n\n\nPari Center Online Series \n\n\n\nNovember 5 – 27\, 20229:00am PST | 12:00pm EST | 5:00pm GMT  |  6:00pm CET \n\n\n\n8-two-hour sessions every Saturday and Sunday \n\n\n\nAll sessions are live; recordings will be available for any sessions you are unable to attend. \n\n\n\nWe are living in a time of anxiety and uncertainty. As more environmental damage is done\, the means to repair it seems to be getting less. It is increasingly difficult to know what to trust in politics and the media. Spiritual traditions survive\, but the authority they once had has passed to science and so it might seem that the idea of ‘The Sacred’ has disappeared. \n\n\n\nBut as science reveals more and more about the place of the earth in the cosmos there is a growing awareness of how precious our living world is and of how inter-dependent we are with it. Perhaps this is not only a scientific discovery but also the re-appearance of the sacred in a form fit for our times. \n\n\n\nHow the living world came to be and how it persists is the business of the sciences.  How cultures appear and develop is the business of the humanities. Powerful though those styles of inquiry are\, they offer little comfort to those anxious about the destructive direction in which our globalised culture is going. What appears to be missing is some way of restoring our sense of spiritual interdependence with the living world. \n\n\n\nThis series of talks is an opportunity to hear from people concerned with these ideas and to participate in a dialogue on how they might help us to keep hope alive and decide what to do for the best in our challenging times. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram of Event\n\n\n\nSaturday November 5Recovering the Soulwith Iain McGilchrist \n\n\n\nSunday November 6The Sacred and the Evolution of Consciousnesswith Matthijs Cornelissen \n\n\n\nSaturday November 12Finding our Way Home to Nature as Sacredwith Mary-Jayne Rust \n\n\n\nSunday November 13The Sacred as Immanent in a Sentient Worldwith Peter Reason \n\n\n\nSaturday November 19Towards a Transmaterialist Science of the Sacredwith Bernard Carr and Alex Gomez-Marin \n\n\n\nSunday November 20The Loss and Recovery of the Sacredwith Anne Baring \n\n\n\nSaturday November 26Recovering a Sense of the Sacred – an Evolutionary Imperativewith David Lorimer \n\n\n\nSunday November 27Weaving a Web of Meaning: How Recognizing Our Deep Interrelatedness Lays a Path to Sustainable Flourishingwith Jeremy Lent

SUMMARY:The Sacred as Immanent in a Sentient World
DESCRIPTION:Watch the recording\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tz3JjQ2tgM\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Sacred as Immanent in a Sentient World \n\n\n\nwith Peter Reason \n\n\n\nSunday November 13\, 20229:00am PST | 12:00pm EST | 5:00pm GMT  |  6:00pm CET \n\n\n\n2-hour session \n\n\n\nThe session is live and you will be sent the RECORDING. \n\n\n\nWhat does it mean to live on Earth as Gaia—that is to say\, as a living\, vital entity in which many kinds of beings create meaning and tell stories? If we invoke such a world of sentient presence\, calling to other-than-human beings as persons\, might we be graced with a response? And what does this mean for recovering the sacred? \n\n\n\nOver the past four years I have initiated and participated in a series of co-operative inquiries\, drawing on Freya Mathews’ articulation of ‘living cosmos panpsychism.’ In this talk I will give some accounts of our experiences from these inquiries\, narratives of occasions when the world has indeed ‘answered back’ to our invocation. From this I will say something about living cosmos panpsychism that has underpinned our work. \n\n\n\nI will continue to explore the ethical position inherent in this perspective—the ought which is ontological\, at the core of what is. This is the Law in the pattern in things that enables the living cosmos to renew and re-articulate itself in perpetuity. It provides an understanding of the sacred as immanent\, and offers a foundation for a more ontologically reverent\, cosmocentric way of inhabiting the world. \n\n\n\nTo see the Full Recovering the Sacred Program\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter Reason \n\n\n\nAs Director of the Centre for Action Research in Professional Practice at the University of Bath\, England\, Peter Reason was an international leader in the development of participative approaches to action research. In these forms of experiential inquiry all are co-researchers\, contributing both to the thinking that forms the research and to the action that is its subject. He published widely\, co-editing the Handbook of Action Research: Participative Inquiry and Practice and co-founding the journal Action Research. \n\n\n\nSince retiring from his academic position\, Peter has focused on writing that links the tradition of nature writing with the ecological crisis of our times\, drawing on scientific\, ecological\, philosophical and spiritual sources. He is currently engaged in a series of experiential and co-operative inquiries exploring living cosmos panpsychism in relation to Rivers. His books include Spindrift: A wilderness pilgrimage at sea; In Search of Grace: An ecological pilgrimage\, and most recently (with artist Sarah Gillespie) On Presence: Essays | Drawings and On Sentience: Essays | Drawings. He is currently preparing Living in a Sentient World: An inquiry with his colleagues Freya Mathews\, Andreas Weber\, Stephan Harding\, and Sandra Wooltorton. \n\n\n\nPeter is Professor Emeritus at the University of Bath.
