"Unless
a man has on some level been involved in the human
struggle, it might be hard for him to know what is
missing from society. You can only miss something
that you have searched for and partially experienced."

A Day of Teaching -
A Spiritual Event for Men and Women
|
Men
want to live from their depths and seemingly don’t know
how to get there. Fr.
Richard is convinced that this is essentially
a religious problem. In fact, “initiation” is merely
the name for
religion before we had any institutionalized religion. Come and
hear some ancient ways of discovering the true self. Also, find
out
why women did not need initiation – until now!
|
YES, for women, too!
Patriarchy
has no place in this kind of male spiritual development.
Women have as much invested in seeing more men become
spiritually healthy husbands, fathers, brothers, friends,
and co-workers. Fr. Richard will address many of these
issues and will also have time to answer questions in
the special dialogue time with women attending the event.
