Speaking as Elder for Pacifica Graduate Institute

Thomas Moore is keynote speaker at the online conference, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul. It occurs Friday 12 November, 2021 to Sunday 14 November 2021, hosted by The Retreat at Pacifica Graduate Institute via Zoom. 

Keynote: The Fulfilled Elder: Thomas Moore 
"The key to a sense of peace and fulfillment in old age is to have been an Elder from the beginning and to remain young in later years. If you have really lived, accepted the opportunities life has given you, and fostered a relationship with the infinite that saturates you and your world, then old age, with all of its challenges, will feel like a blossoming. You will feel it even more as you present the story of your soul to others and offer them guidance."

Learning Objectives:
1. Connect the imagination of aging with the actual lived experience.
2. Explore the spirituality that naturally can arise in old age.
3. Learn deep ways to leave a legacy, foresee the future, and be a good ancestor.
4. Describe how to be a noble teacher in old age.

Conference Registration 
- $225.00 Pacifica Student Rate
- $275.00 Pacifica Alumni, Full Time Students & Senior Rate

S&P hosts Moore's Gospel course for Lent 2021

Spirituality & Practice promotes Thomas Moore's on-demand Gospel course for Lent 2021. This program "was originally offered during Lent in 2011 and is formatted to run from Ash Wednesday through Easter Sunday:" The Spirituality of the Gospels
"Using his fertile imagination, drawing upon his own translations of the Gospels, Moore offers fresh interpretations to deepen and enliven anyone's spiritual life. Calling the texts "intelligent, challenging, and incredibly inspiring," Moore encourages us to take to heart the distinctive imagery of the Gospels and the many insights to be found there about the central themes of the human adventure.

He explores how Jesus gives us a rounded and ripe sense of the kingdom of God; challenges our long-accepted ideas about purity, wealth, and power; and gives us parables that turn things upside down. Sayings by and stories about Jesus model a path of love, empathy, sharing, self-possession, sensuality, and treating all people well."
Fee: $65.00
