REFLECTION:

The Tao of Liberation Times of crisis can be creative times, times when new visions and new possibilities emerge. The Chinese ideogram for crisis, wei-ji is composed of the characters for danger and opportunity (represented by an unstoppable spear and an impenetrable shield). (ToL, p.8)

The Sophia Center

The Sophia Center: Study the Divine Mystery — accomplish your destiny & purpose.

I was so fortunate to be led to participate in and graduate from the Masters Program in Culture and Spirituality at Holy Names University -Sophia Center. The weekend sessions enriched me in many ways. The theologians, cosmologists, historians, researchers, and Earth scientists, biblical scholars, artists, psychologists, dancers, musicians, sociologists, cultural workers, activists, poets, and others all brought a variety of enriching information presented in a variety of learning styles. My classmates, journeying with me, touched my heart by sharing many wonderful stories and experiences.

The meaningful immersion into and investigation of the convergent forces of religion, art, justice, and science provides me with an interior consciousness that enriches my life and activities on a daily basis.

Thomas Berry (1914 - 2009) wrote about the human relationship with the Earth and the universe with unrivalled perception, intelligence and grace. Through a series of books of essays, Berry articulated a new Earth-based spirituality that integrates the evolutionary perspectives of science with the feelings that inform religion and the arts. His work stands as a major contribution to the development of an ecological civilization in which the human fully recognizes and integrates with the Earth community.
