- On Tuesday, March 28, Professor of Theology and World Religions at Union Theological Seminary the Rev. Dr. John Thatamanil joined Tim Lilburn for a virtual conversation entitled “Faith, Contemplation and the Land.”
A growing realization is emerging in a variety of fields that human beings have become profoundly inattentive to and disconnected from place and the land. The consequences for human and natural life are profound. What might be some of the causes of this separation, and what are the upshots? On the other hand, there has been considerable resurgence of attention to contemplation. Only this resurgence has had little impact on the former problem. What might contemplation and place/the land have to do with each other? What might Evagrius say about this question? How might contemplative life reconnect us once more to place and the land? Join the distinguished Canadian Poet and Essayist for a conversation on these vital themes for an age of ecological peril.
