While the named topic is the future of Buddhism, the explicit purpose of the conference is to explore with a wide diversity of participants the possibility and necessity of integrating the great spiritual traditions with the insights of the modern scientific, urban, secular world. The conference will use Buddhism as an explicit case study and context for grounding the challenge of evolving spliritualites in real life.

We've all been more or less deeply touched by Buddhist teachings and practices; we've been addressed by colleagues who have become practicing Buddhists; and if you're an evolving Christian in any way like me, you've been drawn to contemplative insight and practice that takes one deeper than the images and ideas that launched and carried us on our further journeys of expansion in the '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s, and beyond.
