Buddha/Jesus Conf., Richard Rohr, James Finley

»Conference: Jesus and Buddha — Paths to Awakening

“I am awake.” -Buddha | “Stay awake.” -Jesus

Richard Rohr and James Finley are going to explore the essence of Buddhism’s Four Noble Truths and how Jesus’ teaching relates to them. Rohr’s a Franciscan priest and one of my favorite authors and teachers. Finley used to be a Trappist monk (and studied with Thomas Merton); he’s now a renowned psychotherapist and spiritual counselor. I’m definitely considering making the trip to Albuquerque for this one. It’s coming up; the dates are Jan. 25-27.

A side note: Those of you in Chicago, check out Richard Rohr speaking at Loyola University on Dec. 1. He’s talking about his brand-new book, Things Hidden: Scripture as Spirituality. I wish I could go with you!

»Interview With James Finley: “Experiencing God Through Meditation” (beliefnet)

In this great interview with James Finley (mentioned above), Finley talks about what Christian meditation is, what its benefits are and why some Christians are wary of it. “Christian meditation,” Finley states, “is way of experiencing God beyond what the ego can grasp or attain. It’s beyond thought, beyond memory, beyond the will, beyond feeling.”
