The 2019 Science and Non-Duality Conference
THE 2019 SCIENCE AND NON-DUALITY CONFERENCE (with live streaming)
From Quarks to Love: Exploring Relationships at every scale
October 25-27, 2019 (Fri. 7 pm – Sun. 4:30 pm)
~ Carl Sagan
For scientists, bonds and connections are essential to the working of the universe; for mystics, love is the ultimate principle. From the depths of physics to the delights of being human, relationships make life possible.
The mechanistic view of reality which sees the world as separate objects, separate individuals, communities and nations, has led to fragmentation in every aspect of life. We are now realizing that, from quarks to people, from gut bacteria to galaxies, it’s all about interconnectedness, cooperation, and symbiosis.
This Science and Non-Duality (SAND) weekend retreat will include live streaming from the 2019 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, SAND will be bringing together some of the brightest minds in science, along with spiritual teachers from various traditions and artists, in a quest to expand and deepen our understanding and experience of our relational nature through the two lenses of science and spirituality. We will explore and integrate our human knowledge and experience around the theme of relationships. We will inquire into the many scales of relationship we are part of, from microbes and bacteria to mushrooms and trees, to people and families, to galaxies and black holes.
At the end of the day, no matter how complex the field of study becomes, the innate intelligence and reflective nature of the universe shines through. Love is what breathes life into the equations; Love is the field in which the quarks and human beings relate. We will meet you there.
Live streaming of sessions with leading presenters will be complemented with opportunities for dialogue and nature walks on the beautiful Centre grounds.
