SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: Individuation and Beyond: World Views\, God-Images\, and Self-Realization
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\nHow do our worldviews and God-images shape meaning and identity?\n  \nThis is the question that Dr. Patrick Mahaffey asks in his newest book\, Individuation and Beyond: World Views\, God-Images\, and Self-Realization. A profound exploration of the psychospiritual journey toward wholeness and awakening\, Mahaffey draws on over five decades of academic study\, spiritual practice\, and teaching at Pacifica Graduate Institute to interweave insights from process relational theology\, Jungian depth psychology\, the Diamond Approach\, contemplative yoga traditions\, and integral philosophy.  \nIn this event\, Dr. Mahaffey will introduce the invitation in his text for explorers to engage deeply with their inner lives by examining the worldviews and God-images that shape meaning and identity. He proposes a form of integrative spirituality—a path that unites psychological wholeness with spiritual realization. His approach is offered as a mandala of perspectives designed to illuminate the divine within the human.  \n\n\n  \n  \n\n“My heartfelt wish is that the ideas and practices discussed in the book may inspire readers\, each in their own way\, to cultivate ways of seeing and practicing that engender wholeness\, completeness\, and the realization of the divinity that is inherent in their humanness.“ \nPatrick Mahaffey\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nPatrick Mahaffey\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Patrick Mahaffey is Professor Emeritus in the Mythological Studies Program at Pacifica Graduate Institute. His areas of expertise include Hindu and Buddhist traditions\, Comparative Philosophy of Religion\, and Contemplative Yoga. His Ph.D. in Religious Studies is from the University of California\, Santa Barbara. He is the author of Integrative Spirituality: Religious Pluralism\, Individuation\, and Awakening\, the editor of Evolving God-Images: Essays on Religion\, Individuation\, and Postmodern Spirituality and his latest book\, Individuation and Beyond: World Views\, God-Images\, and Self-Realization. He has also published essays on Hindu and Buddhist traditions\, and Self-inquiry in Jung’s Depth Psychology and Yoga. \n\n\n \n\n\n\nTo reserve your seat and receive the Zoom information\, click the Going button and enter your name and email. \n\n\nDisclaimer: This event is open to the public and will be recorded.

SUMMARY:Readings on Faiths: Bright Circle
DESCRIPTION:A Book Group Exploring the Diversity of Religion \n\n\n\nReadings on Faiths Around the World is a book group that reads and discusses books covering the vast diversity of world faiths. Of course\, the standard seven world religions will be included but we will also explore less well-known religious/spiritual groups. The only prerequisite needed for this group is a desire to learn more about the world’s religious traditions. \nOur next book is Bright Circle: Five Remarkable Women in the Age of Transcendentalism\, by Randall Fuller. Bright Circle presents the stories of five extraordinary women who challenged the culture norms of nineteenth-century America and more specifically of New England.  Although all were closely connected through marriage\, family\, or friendship with male transcendentalists only two were actually part of the male dominated group. Yet\, all five\, in their own way\, wrote\, discussed\, and participated in transcendentalist’s ideas and experiments. Several of the women were involved in the abolitionist movement (before many of the men); some were active in the establishment of communal living experiments; and of course\, the many were active in the Women’s Rights Movement. \n\nLEARN MORE & ENROLL

SUMMARY:Buddhist Process Explorations
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion Group About the Exploring\, Sharing\, and Practice of Buddhist Process-Relational Thought \n\n\n\nAt face value\, the Buddha’s Dharma and Whitehead’s Process Philosophy seem to characterize reality in very different ways\, and for different reasons. The Buddha taught that reality as we typically experience it is an impermanent\, selfless and dissatisfying process of cyclic becoming continuously powered by compulsive attachment and aversion grounded in delusion. The Buddha prescribed various methods we could deploy in order to go beyond this painful and immiserated condition\, methods which involve thorough analysis and deconstruction of our habituated and self-limiting assumptions about ourselves and the world as well as means of cultivating more purified states of awareness and embodiment so that we can awaken to the way things really are and unleash our core potential. \nWhitehead elaborated a systematic philosophical scheme\, replete with foundational metaphysical categories\, that reconstructs reality as a cumulative process of concrescence whereby many diverse feelings creatively synthesize into a novel experience\, aiming towards satisfaction and lured to completion through divine persuasion. For Whitehead\, many of the issues in philosophy and society at large could be traced to various fallacious conceptions concerning nature\, language\, and experience which he sought to rectify with his panexperiential\, process-relational Philosophy of Organism. \n  \nLEARN MORE & ENROLL
