Spiritual Wisdom in the Life & Teachings of Eastern Christian Mystics, Visionaries, Healers, & Sages: Their Relevance for the 21st Century

Kyriacos Markides

The mystical wisdom tradition of Eastern Christianity is little known in the West, yet it is reminiscent of the mystical spirituality Westerners have sought in the ashrams of India and the lamaseries of Tibet. Professor Kyriacos Markides has been exploring the life and worldview of Christian saints, mystics, hermits, and healers for 30 years, and tonight he will share with us his encounters with the extraordinary world of the sages and miracle workers who he has met in his lifelong quest. He will also show us that there is a clearly identifiable and experiential mystical path within Christianity that has been practiced for hundreds of years, not only in ancient monasteries and convents but also among individuals living in the midst of the modern world.

Topics for discussion and exploration will also include:

* the way to know God; the spiritual laws that govern human existence
* the destiny of the human soul
* the different stages one must go through to attain union with the Divine
* the power of thought, including inner prayer and contemplation for healing self and others
