Hearts Are Beginning to Have Thoughts: The Meaning of Michaelmas with Patrick Kennedy

The thinking of our time is killing us - inside and out.  It is linked, on the one hand, to self-centered opinions that divide us, leading ultimately to hateful feelings and desires.  Or it is 'objective' but cold, culminating in materialism and nihilism. The being referred to with the name 'Michael' in ancient Hebrew and Christian tradition, would show us another way, the way of the 'Thinking Heart'.

What is 'Michaelmas'? Why is it important to celebrate it? And how can I sense the reality of Michael?

In this webinar we will open up one aspect of Michael's efforts in our time to keep us united with our true humanity, leading to concrete practices we can take into our daily lives.

When: Wednesday, September 27 from 7:30-8:30 Eastern
