Emerging Wisdom - 2014 Educational Events

Event has concluded.

You won’t want to miss a moment of the Emerging Wisdom educational events. Your presence, engagement, and insights are what will make our time together enriching and memorable. It is SDI's hope that you will be welcomed, cared for, inspired, challenged, encouraged, and equipped as you both give and receive.

For more than twenty years, SDI has been gathering contemplative leaders from around the world and across traditions to teach and learn from each other. Join the global learning community as Buddhist leader Roshi Joan Halifax, Christian leader Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, and Jewish leaders Eve Ilsen, and Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi come together for the first time in history!

While the theme of emerging wisdom is broad, together we will explore the ancient wisdom of spiritual companionship across spiritual traditions and discover new truths for spiritual direction today.

Registration for this event is closed.

Event recordings from the 2014 Emerging Wisdom conference in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA can be ordered through National Conference Recording Service. Plenary sessions and workshops in MP3, CD, and DVD format are available.
