InterSpiritual Meditation – Eight Week Course in Ojai
This Spring, Ed Bastian taught an eight week course on InterSpiritual Wisdom at Meditation Mount in Ojai, California. Here is the Meditation Mount website.
InterSpiritual Meditation is a seven-part process that can be practiced alone, in the company of people from one tradition, or with people from many different traditions. It is designed to help each of us to develop a foundation for health, inner peace, wisdom and compassion; and its purpose is to foster these sacred qualities in group practice, bringing about a shared experience of the sacred which may bring a little more harmony into our divided world, and in our own personal lives. It is called InterSpiritual Meditation because it draws together the key components of the meditative and contemplative processes found in many of the world’s religions. It is a distillation of intentions and practices drawn from the ancient wisdom traditions, which, it is hoped, may bring us truly together in an InterSpiritual Consciousness. It is a process through which we can celebrate the unique contributions of each spiritual tradition, a way for us to better embrace the marvelous spiritual diversity that has been given to us.
Ed’s book on InterSpiritual Meditation will be available near the end of the summer.
