Dear friends,

How do we creatively participate in the mystery of spirituality? My new book Participation and the Mystery: Transpersonal Essays in Psychology, Education, and Religion (SUNY Press, 2017) explores participatory spirituality, which holds that human beings are active co-creators of spiritual phenomena and worlds. With the dwindling of organized religion, there is a growing movement for a more personal, individuated spirituality to come to the forefront and enrich old structures. Participation and the Mystery offers an examination of the relationship between science and transpersonal psychology, the import of shared entheogenic visions, the nature of a fully embodied spirituality, the features of integral education, and the future of religion

I hope you are able to join me for a presentation and dialogue with Matthew T. Segall, who teaches in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program at the CIIS. Our conversation about Participation and the Mystery will offer an investigation of contemporary spirituality and how to participate in cycles larger than ourselves.
