Sacred Alchemy: The Marriage Of East & West
Exploring Inter-Spiritual Mysticism by comparing the revelations of East and West.
In 2008, New World Library published Jesus in the Lotus: The Mystical Doorway Between Christianity and Yogic Spirituality, a book designed to encourage dialogue between Christians and yoga practitioners in the West. While this book has touched the lives and hearts of many, there are aspects could have been approached differently. This online course on Sacred Alchemy: The Marriage of East and West addresses some of these areas while delving deeper into interspirituality—a term coined by the late Wayne Teasdale to describe a lifestyle that integrates two spiritual traditions with integrity.
The goal of this program is not to engage in lengthy discussions about interfaith dialogue, although that aspect is available based on your the nature of your relationship with the program. For instance, our core community certainly engages in this manner. For those seeking a more experiential engagement, the option to focus on spiritual practices and mystical experiences informed by interspirituality is offered here, providing a unique opportunity not found elsewhere.
