The real stories that can change our lives come from the mythic, archetypal world of the soul. What are the stories that are needed at this time, to help awaken us from the collective nightmare of materialism that is destroying our ecosystem? How can we work to bring these transformative stories into our communities and our daily life?

In the morning there will be a talk and questions. In the afternoon, a simple meditation on the heart followed by time for spiritual discussion.

This event is co-sponsored by Mercy Center Burlingame and The Golden Sufi Center.
