Fr. Thomas Keating - A Christian View of Non-Duality Transformation into Christ
Fr. Thomas Keating, founder of Contemplative Outreach, will address how our personal love of Christ leads to divine union and unity. Fr. Keating’s quest for a deeper understanding of other faith traditions began more than thirty years ago.
Dr. Judith Simmer-Brown - Walking the Contemplative Path
Dr. Judith Simmer-Brown, an Acharya (senior dharma teacher) of the Shambhala Buddhist lineage and a professor of Religious Studios at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, has practiced Tibetan Buddhism for thirty years. She has been involved in international Buddhist-Christian dialogue for the past twenty years and an active participant in the contemporary North American discussion surrounding Buddhism in the West. Her books include: Dakini’s Warm Breath: The Feminine Principle in Tibetan Buddhism (Shambhala) and with three other Buddhist teachers, Benedict’s Dharma: Buddhists Comment on the Rule of St. Benedict.
She will speak about how we can develop true compassion and help alleviate the suffering of the world by walking the contemplative path.
