Spiritual Journey Series
Course 7: The Gift of Life
The Gift of Life: Death and Dying, Life and Living continues and builds on the works of Thomas Keating over the past 30+ years, beginning with the Spiritual Journey series.
This five-week video series of talks by Thomas Keating offering a vision of hope and a view of reality that counter the cultural norms that view death as a tragedy, or the end of living, or an entry into harsh judgment and retribution.
Course Description
During four days of filming in December 2010, Fr. Thomas sat with Fr. Carl Arico, his long-time friend, colleague and founding member of Contemplative Outreach, in an intimate conversation focused on the transformative process of death and dying as part of, rather than the end of, life's journey.
This course will cover:
- The stages of dying,
- Suffering,
- Judgment and Mercy,
- After Death,
- The Mystery of God
Cost: $70
