Where: Interfaith Community Sanctuary, 1763 NW 62nd Street, Seattle, WA 98107

You are invited to join a conversation with the next inspiring young religious leader in our Salon Series who is helping to shape the future of religion and the emerging field of “interspirituality.” At a time when millions of young people are rejecting religion altogether, it is remarkable to discover young pioneer Rory McEntee, whose message inspires younger generations to pursue a committed spiritual life.
Rory McEntee is the Administrator of the “Snowmass interspiritual dialogue” (founded by Fr. Thomas Keating), which has been bringing religious leaders together from ten major world religions for 30 years. A student of the late Wayne Teasdale, Rory is co-author of “Manifesto for a New Monasticism” — a call to live the contemplative life devoted to spiritual realization, yet free of the trappings associated with traditional religious monasticism.
Rory is visiting Seattle from Los Angeles. His visit is sponsored by the Dawn of Interspirituality conference, organized by the Satyana Institute. Dawn of Interspirituality is an international conference to bring together interspiritual and religious leaders of all faiths from across the nation and overseas—September 29 to October 4, 2013, at Cascadian Center north of Seattle. For more information, please visit www.satyana.org.
Please join us to meet Rory!

"Reality Is But a Dream" workshop with Helen Vandeman:
The world is simply the out-picturing of our inner state of mind...
More about Sunday September 15th workshop with Helen Vandeman
"Reality is But a Dream:"
The world is simply the out-picturing of our inner state of mind. It is real only to minds that are asleep. Regardless of the apparent pain and conflict, it is serving some purpose for us. Since we made a world in which we appear to be separate from each other and from the fulfillment of our desires, we now appear to be victims of someone else’s dream. However, we cannot awaken from a dream others are dreaming for us. If we want a new story, we need to take responsibility for the mind that created the world, and to give our thoughts and actions a different purpose. Nothing can satisfy our perceived needs, let alone awaken us from the dream, until we change our self-concept and our purpose.
Our task in the workshop will be to learn how to live in peace within the dream, how to dream a peaceful dream and, finally, how to awaken from it. We will do that by joining with each other in a shared purpose, and by learning basic intuition techniques to identify and remove our blocks to the awareness of our true Self and peace.
