The 2018 Science and Non-Duality Conference
The 2018 Science & Non-duality Conference (with live streaming)
October 26-28, 2018 (Fri. 7 pm – Sun. 4:30 pm)
This Science and Non-Duality (SAND) weekend retreat will include live streaming from the 2018 Science and Non-Duality Conference in San Jose, CA and features leading spiritual teachers and scientists that reframe our understanding of spirituality and point to the fundamentally non-dual nature of reality.
This year at SAND we will be bringing together some of the brightest minds in science along with spiritual teachers from various traditions, to expand and deepen our understanding and experience of what it means to be human. Through these two lenses – of science and spirituality – we will be asking:
- What does it means to be fully human and fully alive?
- What can evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and psychology tell us about human behavior?
- What are emotions, and how does trauma lodge in our bodies?
- How does language shape the way we think and perceive reality?
- What can we learn from the new science of psychedelics?
- How are mathematics, physics and cosmology redefining reality?
Understanding our humanity, the very essence of who we are and how we live our lives, is one of the deepest mysteries and biggest challenges. As we move into this exploration, what emerges is a completely new relationship to our spiritual life and to our idea of what an integrated human being might look like. Embracing our humanness means including our limitations and shortcomings as well as our unlimited potential, our suffering as well as our wholeness. When our heart opens to all of it, the truth of who we are begins to shine. The spiritual search is over. There is no refuge but this moment. We become lovers of what is.
Join us for a weekend of contemplating and celebrating our humanity!
Live streaming of sessions with leading presenters will be complemented with opportunities for dialogue and nature walks on the beautiful Centre grounds.
