Reflections and conversations on the nature of existence. Sarah B. explores philosophical, spiritual, and religious ideas as they're presented in various books.
In late July I will start leading Time & Other Thieves: The Group: A monthly discussion, meditation, and interpersonal process group. Both cohorts of the group will meet on Zoom, one on the last Tuesday of every month from 2–3:30, and the other on the last Wednesday of every month from 6–7:30 (both P.M. and EST). Take your pick!

Time & Other Thieves
"The Divine Milieu," by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
In this episode, which originally aired in radio format in two parts on March 31st and April 7th, 2022, I explore some of the ideas presented in the 1957 book, The Divine Milieu, by French Jesuit priest, scientist, paleontologist, theologian, philosopher and teacher, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. Topics include but are not limited to: the divinisation of our activities (the things that we make happen), the divinisation of our passivities (the things that happen to us), the notion of a Cosmic Christ and how we create Him by meeting our own highest potential, and "passivities of growth" and "passivities of diminishment." I also talk a good deal about the alpinist Marc-André Leclerc.
