Peter Rollins’
Atheism for Lent: The Death of God
February 17th 2021 - April 1st 2021
Together, we will explore atheism as a spiritual practice of purification and a means for casting out religious dogmatism. This course, uniquely curated by Dr. Peter Rollins every year, will draw you in to what some mystics call the "Cloud of Unknowing." Participants receive daily reflections and weekly talks designed to confront us with the greatest critiques of religion—ones that have the power to purify us of any festering fundamentalism and to help us glimpse a richer type of faith.
Deepak Chopra’s
Metahuman
May 4th 2020 - July 6th 2020
Metahuman invites the reader to walk the path here and now. Waking up, we learn, isn’t just about mindfulness or meditation. Waking up, to become metahuman, is to expand our consciousness in all that we think, say, and do. By going beyond, we liberate ourselves from old conditioning and all the mental constructs that underlie anxiety, tension, and ego-driven demands. Once we wake up, he writes, life becomes transformed, because pure consciousness—which is the field of all possibilities—dawns in our lives. Only then does our infinite potential become our personal reality.
