1 event, In this session, Lopon Dorje Khandro and Rev. Dr. Dhammabodhi will briefly explore critical intersections between Buddhism, New Paradigm Sciences, and the Practicalities of Dementia Caregiving in the United States. They will focus on how to maintain a radical compassionate caregiving presence, insure the provision of essential and non-exploitative care, and recognize the “luminous mind” while serving humans and animals whose physical capacities, cognitive functions, and identities are fading. The presenters will also share their main Buddhist and caregiving practices such as Tonglen (sending and taking), Chod (cutting practice), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and some new and old visual, sound, touch and olfactory therapies. |

 In this process pop-up, Christie Byers will explore what it might mean to teach science as if the world were alive. Drawing on Alfred North Whitehead’s process philosophy, she shares an approach to elementary science education that shifts away from viewing nature as inert and mechanical, and toward experiencing it as relational and participatory, a community of diverse subjects infused with value. Rather than teaching Whitehead’s ideas explicitly, Byers designs her course as an embodied enactment of them, using an "as if" approach, "as if" we are indeed living in a Whiteheadian cosmos, inviting preservice teachers to encounter science through wonder, aesthetic experience, and direct engagement with the more-than-human world.

 In his new book, Made by Love, for Love, author Michael M. Rose invites readers to reimagine Christianity—not as a drama of sin and obligatory appeasing sacrifice, but as a cosmic love story still unfolding. Far from cracking under the weight of an expanding universe, the gospel becomes more radiant, more necessary, and more astonishing than ever. In this Process Pop-Up, Rose will introduce his project and invite conversation. |
1 event, Eugene Gendlin's work—which Whitehead had a seminal impact on—help us move past the fallacy of misplaced concreteness. Heeding felt understanding gives us a disciplined resource for creative, adaptive thought and action. Bill Gayner will explore this experientially in a guided contemplation using as a starting point an excerpt from Whitehead’s chapter on philosophic method in Adventures of Ideas. We will then reflect on and discuss the experience including perhaps how these kinds of micropractices can scale up to support professional sensibilities and reflective learning, providing a platform for ongoing adaptation and innovation, and the light this may shed on Whitehead’s own practice.
