peace, freedom, interconnectedness and wholeness.

A seminar which uses reason and meditation to challenge our world view. Profound concepts and new research have moved science closer to the views of ancient sages about the nature of the universe, consciousness and life. Yet most of us still hold on to materialist beliefs: that we are separate bodily beings, that consciousness is a secretion of the brain, and that the world exists “out there.” In this seminar, we will challenge old presuppositions about who we are and how we know, and examine the relation of experience and reality in the light of ancient wisdom and modern reason. We will explore ways to revision our views through imaginative meditations. Finally, we will discuss the consequences of shifting our view: peace, freedom, interconnectedness and wholeness.

The magician David Copperfield has made his living from hiding enormous things from plain view — like elephants and the Statue of Liberty — and then magically revealing them again. Any magician will tell you that in order to make things disappear and appear again, you have to have a plan of action — a formula or recipe — to make the magic work.(...)

People are really confused about Public Key Infrastructure, also known as PKI. They focus on the words “public” and “key” but they forget to include the last word, “infrastructure.” That’s the important part. Infrastructure has been used most commonly to refer to the roads, bridges, rail lines, electric power cables, water lines, and similar public works that are required for an industrial economy to function. In a network, an infrastructure is the servers, desktop computers, operating systems, application software, routers, hubs, network operating systems—the interconnectivity between all the machines. It’s what allows the Internet to work....
