The Conversational: A time to reflect, a space to share

In this era of fast knowledge, fast information, and fast interaction, The Conversational is a gathering of scholars of spirituality, who take a moment to share and discuss ideas together. Academics, professionals, erudites, artists, imagineers, designers, and many more diverse minds join in a meaningful conversation around deep thoughts, visions, theories and practices. The Conversational is open to a wide range of topics and interests relating in the broadest sense possible to spirituality in terms of spirit, soul, mind and consciousness.

You are warmly invited to the next Conversational where:
