Reserve now for the 34th SSF-IIIHS International Conference!
In the midst of severe challenges we face on earth today, many would
say that there shines a new light, for those who have the eyes to
see and the ears to hear.Today, future sciences of consciousness &
healing converge with the sublime insights of mystics, saints, and
sages of many ancient religious and cultural traditions of the
world, East & West.In this conference we shall hear again from
pioneers in the natural sciences, social sciences, arts, medicine,
psychiatry, and comparative religion dealing with this issue. They
will focus on impressions of a timeless awareness of a sublime,
inner, guiding light, experienced by many, in various traditions
throughout history. “The Light shines in the darkness; but the darkness can neither
comprehend it, nor put it out. This is the true Light which gives
light to every person coming into the world.” N.T., John 1 “Giver of Immortal Gladness, Lead Us to the Light of Day.” Ludwig
van Beethoven Chorus, Ninth Symphony, Opus 125 “Lead Kindly, Light. Lead Thou Me On.” John Henry Cardinal Newman
Science and spirituality, faith and reason, plus intuition, urgently
need each other to create a truly human and graceful existence. The
ideas that religion can do without science, or that science can do
without spirituality & ethics, or that reason can survive without
intuition, have presented us with a potentially disastrous illusion
at this point in human history. Millions throughout history have
said that they have experienced a sublime, eternal, and powerful
inner light shining in the darkness for those who will welcome it
with faith and confidence. That inner light is experienced as a
source of joy, healing, and creativity, which allows one to thrive
in the midst of any darkness. The message from such personal
experiences throughout history is fairly universal: that we can rise
again from the potential cosmic disasters we have created. Come and
explore with us what some leading thinkers from diverse religious,
scientific, and cultural traditions have experienced as a way ahead
toward restoration and healing. AMONG SPECIAL TOPICS FOR 2009
