Cultivating the Future University: Eco-Art, Healing, and Pedagogy in the Healing Garden
In this SPARKS Exchange, artist and educator Lipeng Jin invites you into the story of the “Healing Garden”—an evolving eco-art and pedagogical experiment at the Sichuan Fine Art Institute, China. More than a campus garden, the Healing Garden is a living laboratory reimagining the university’s role in an era of ecological crisis: How can higher education become a force for planetary healing and community renewal?

Process Pop-Up: Evolution in Divine Love
In this Process Pop-Up, Swami Padmanabha will discuss the ideas in Evolution in Divine Love. Far from portraying divinity as distant or static, Swami Padmanabha encourages us to see Ultimate Reality as both changeless and ever-new, infinite and intimate, perfect and perpetually becoming—animated by the same love that pulses through every corner of creation. Through this lens, he invites us to view reality not as a closed system, but as a living, breathing process of growth, beauty, and co-creative transformation.

Interweavings: Deep Listening: Dynamic Practices and Living Texts
Rabbi Leila Gal Berner and Sheri D. Kling strongly believe that there is still something life-giving in both ancient texts and pre-modern practices, and that both can come alive in dynamic ways while still being grounded in timeless wisdom. In this event, Rabbi Berner and Dr. Kling will share their own experiences with reshaping traditional practices to reawaken modern sensibilities to potentially transforming encounters with texts and with the Divine.

Process Philosophy in Under-Explored Traditions in Philosophical History: An Online Conference
This conference will be the first to birth this long overdue intellectual exchange as it offers an improved metaphysical framework for value and consciousness in all ontological entities to address various concerns that are facing humanity: economy, political, and environmental. Although there are hesitant answers to some of these global challenges facing humanity, the influence of substance-based analysis has yet to offer penetrative answers, in addition to the almost complete lack of interaction among scholars of process to explore their common ground for a common voice in the way that substance thought has done over the centuries.

This global gathering of scholars, educators, and practitioners marks a pivotal moment to engage Alfred North Whitehead’s philosophy in dialogue with the pressing challenges and transformative opportunities of the 21st century.
