Fritjof Capra and Amelia Barili share thoughts about Science and Spirituality in this "Emerging Consciousness" seminar at Mount Madonna Center, in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California. Below is a description of the seminar. To find out when the next workshop, retreat or class will take place, please visit www.ameliabarili.com


The troubled times we live in carry within them an enormous potential for growth and transformation. To successfully meet this challenge we need clarity of vision and the inner strength to bring forth the changes we yearn to see in the world.

In the seminar from which this fragments are taken, we explore together that potential through a blend of ground-breaking analysis, ancient wisdom and lived experience. The subjects discussed include:
* the emergence of a new consciousness in times of crisis and instability
* a new understanding of life based on recent discoveries in science, which integrates life's biological, cognitive, and social dimensions
* its correlation to teachings from the wisdom traditions of India and China
* how globalization can be reshaped to make it compatible with the demands of human dignity and ecological sustainability
* and at a more personal level, how to incorporate spiritual practices in your daily life to learn and to heal yourself as you serve others
This seminar brings renewed vision and hope as well as embodied wisdom techniques that will help clear your mind so you can focus most effectively on the task at hand.
