SUMMARY:PERSONAL LOSS\, PUBLIC LESSONS
DESCRIPTION:This Sunday\, April 18 at 2 pm\, I have the honor of interviewing Bill Tammeus about his extraordinary new book through the courtesy of the Interfaith Center at Miami University. The book is Love: Loss\, and Endurance: A 9/11 Story of Resilience and Hope in an Age of Anxiety. \nAward-winning journalist Bill Tammeus was among those who suffered the personal loss of a relative on 9/11\, a day that continues to twist America and the world in continuing trauma. \nIn this inspiring and hopeful book\, Tammeus takes us to the heart of that gripping drama. He helps us to understand the many sources of religious extremism — and what can be done to stop it. And he invites us to reclaim core values that can help all of us become peacemakers in today’s tumultuous world. \nAs so much changes each day\, may we find clearer vision and greater joy in our times with one another\, virtually and/or in person\, as we gain pleasure in caring for ourselves\, for those we know\, and for humanity on this endangered planet. \nFaithfully\,\nVern \nDonations can be made online here or via postal mail to CRES\, P.O. Box 45414\, Kansas City\, MO 64171. \nA much fuller description and the Zoom link appears on the CRES website here.

SUMMARY:The 14th Annual | 2021 CLGS John E. Boswell Lecture: Lama Rod Owens Speaks on “Love and Rage: The Path to Liberation”
DESCRIPTION:Click here to register for this Lecture!\nIn our present day\, when a politics of anger infuses every institutional and cultural sphere\, Lama Rod Owens\, author of Love and Rage: The Path of Liberation Through Anger\, will explore a radical re-envisioning of this timely topic as he addresses\, in particular\, those who feel called to metabolize or harness their anger for the purpose transformation and change. \nJoin us for this\, our 14th Annual CLGS Boswell Lecture! \nConsidered one of the leaders of the next generation of Dharma teachers\, Lama Rod Owens has a blend of formal Buddhist training and life experience that gives him a unique ability to understand\, relate\, and engage with those around him in a way that is spacious and sincere.  His gentle\, laid-back demeanor\, and willingness to bare his heart and soul make others want to do the same. \nLama Rod was officially recognized by the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism after receiving his teaching authorization from his root teacher\, the Venerable Lama Norlha Rinpoche when he completed the traditional 3-year silent retreat program at Kagyu Thubten Chöling Monastery (KTC) outside of New York City.  It was during this time that he dealt with years of past pain and trauma and found forgiveness and compassion for himself: he views this as a critical step before one is able to help others. \nSince coming out of retreat\, Lama Rod has completed his Master of Divinity (MDiv) degree at Harvard Divinity School.  He also practices\, studies\, and teaches secular mindfulness and is a teacher with Inward Bound Mindfulness Education (iBme)\, where he is also a faculty member for the organization’s teacher training program.  Lama Rod is deeply engaged in social change activism and is co-author (with Rev. angel Kyodo williams and Jasmine Syedullah) of the book Radical Dharma\, Talking Race\, Love and Liberation. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Drag & The Divine: An ONLINE Lavender Lunch with Mama Celeste
DESCRIPTION:Click here for a Zoom link for this event!\nThe music! The wine! The headdresses! \nNo\, we’re not just talking about Midnight Mass at the Vatican.  We’re talking about drag! From ancient shamans to Purim celebrations\, drag performance has always had a place in spiritual traditions. And for many queer people\, drag and nightlife culture is an important way of accessing the kinds of rituals and practices that are central to any sacred community. \nMama Celeste\, a Unitarian Universalist-raised preacher’s kid turned glamorous drag impresario\, will speak about the history of queer performance as a method of manifesting the divine\, as well as the many roles that performance plays within religious cultures. \nMama Celeste  (they/them) is the cofounder of Oaklash: The Bay Area’s Drag and Queer Performance Festival.  Celeste is the drag alter ego of Grey Tartaglione\, a filmmaker and queer advocate who currently works as the Sr. Communications Officer at MPact\, a gay men’s sexual health and human rights organization based in Oakland. Often irreverent and (hopefully) humorous\, Mama Celeste has been seen at venues throughout the Bay Area\, Los Angeles\, New Orleans\, Texas\, Miami and New York. \nVIDEO BIBLIOGRAPHY: We invite you to view Mama Celeste’s Rules of Drag before taking part in this Lavender Lunch!

SUMMARY:Is Hinduism Nothing More than Caste?
DESCRIPTION:In the Western Imagination\, Caste has come to define Hinduism. And the study of Hinduism by western Academics gets centered on Caste as the only organizing principle of Hinduism. How did this happen? Especially when Caste is not a word that occurs originally in any of the Indian languages? Is Varna and Jati – the words used in Sanskrit the same as Caste? Or is there a subtle but important distinction in meaning\, when these Sanskrit words get mapped into the English word – Caste? \nIn this Webinar\, we will explore this mystery – How did a word “Caste” which does not exist in the Indian vocabulary come to dominate the discourse about Hindu Dharma? We will also introduce the “Orientation to Hindu Studies” course\, where prospective Students can learn how Hindu University of America is reorganizing the Academic Study of Hinduism to represent an authentic Hindu perspective. \n https://bit.ly/3my8oXk
