Entering the Ecological Domain: Social-Sacred Perspectives

Date and Time: 
Thursday, April 12, 2012 - 8:00pm to Sunday, April 15, 2012 - 4:00pm
Location: 
Moora Moora Cooperative Community

The workshop reconsiders us as part of nature with all imensions of our being. It challenges our separation from nature as a false
consciousness.
We share in the hope for humanity as a constructive partner with the rest
of the earth's ecology. We explore the interconnections between person,
community, senses of place and local ecosystems.

We will explore the meaning of ecology as we enter into the ecology of
a particular place shaped as it is by its wildness, its human built and its
human perceived. The fusion of Social and Sacred Ecology joins the human-
centredness of the social, the transcendence of the sacred, with the
interconnectedness of the web of life.

Participants are encouraged to participate in critical analysis and personal
reflection. It will be personally and interpersonally challenging. They are asked
to come with an openness to look within and without; in place and with a
community of fellow explorers.
