SUMMARY:The Spirituality of Depolarization (Free Event)
LOCATION:Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 24% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nMLK Library - Room 401A\n\nIn a world increasingly marked
  by division and conflict\, finding common ground has never been more cruc
 ial – and seemingly more difficult. At the same time\, if we’re willing to
  go outside of ourselves\, there are a growing number of grassroots effort
 s – thousands in the US alone! – all exploring various means of depolariza
 tion. In this context\, might there be a role for spirituality to help gui
 de us towards these aims\, towards greater empathy and understanding for o
 ne another?\n\nMore and more it seems like we can each pick and choose the
  bubbles we want to live in\, with many of those bubbles drifting further 
 away from others. And while there can be comfort to be found in this\, are
  we maybe also missing out on an even better world we could be living in? 
 What would an approach to our lives and our communities look like that spe
 aks to our fundamental commonalities instead of our differences? How might
  we find and strengthen a common ground that unites while respecting our u
 nique perspectives and contributions? What has the unique power to connect
  each and every one of us\, to help us find that common ground\, to better
  understand and express our essential oneness as human beings?\n\nCome joi
 n a different kind of conversation – one that welcomes every perspective i
 n a search for the truths that unite us all – as we discuss the spiritual 
 perspective offered by the Bahá’í Teachings on the role of spirituality in
  navigating polarized communities and bridging divides. Join us for a live
 ly discussion as we explore how spirituality can help foster a society str
 engthened by unity and based on understanding amongst its citizens.\n\n“So
  powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.” –
  Bahá’í Teachings\n\n\\ This event is free and open to all regardless of b
 ackground or belief. Donations will not be accepted.
