LECTURES AND SEMINARS

On the 11 December (DATE CHANGED) from 10,15 to 11,45 in the conference room of El Brellin restaurant, Vicolo dei Lavandai, Alzaia Naviglio Grande 14, Milano, in the context of the program Filosofia sui Navigli I will give a free lecture Il taoismo, la critica del linguaggio e la fisica quantistica (in Italian). For information about Filosofia sui Navigli please contact Avv. Pietro Tamburrini, mobile 3355456903.

From the 20 to the 24th of February 2012 I will be teaching at Schumacher College, Devon, UK, in the course Spirit, Science And Consciousness:  Living With The Paradoxes. The course consists of three weeks that can be booked separately or jointly:

Week 1: February 13-17, Exploring Science and Consciousness (Jean Boulton and Chris Clarke). Week 2: February 20-24, Physics, Tao and Synchronicity (Shantena Sabbadini). Week 3: February 27-March 2, The Self-Aware Universe (Amit Goswami).

Within the mechanistic Newtonian world view, questions surrounding consciousness and spirituality seem unanswerable or meaningless, but new scientific insights, particularly in quantum physics and complexity science, are leading to a very different understanding of how the world works, which shares many common themes with the paradoxes of ancient wisdom and philosophy.

Course Fees: Any One week £750; Any Two weeks £1,400; Three weeks £2100 (Save £150). All course fees include accommodation, food, field trips and all teaching sessions.

On March 16-17 (DATE CHANGED) in Helsinki I will give an I Ching seminar MIRROR OF THE PRESENT . For information and registration please contact Dr. Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä.
