Forwarded by Jann McGuire.  Thought some of you in the Austin area might be
interested.  I had classes with Chuck Ragland in the Univ. of Creation
Spirituality D.Min. program.




Greetings!



I am sending this announcement to you in the interest of furthering

worldwide efforts to bridge religious divides by celebrating the

common ground of our spiritual being, and building interspiritual

community.



Enclosed is an announcement of an important workshop on

InterSpiritual Activism to be held at The Crossings in Austin, Sept.

9-11.  There will also be a free introductory session - a sampler -

next week on Thursday, Aug. 18th.



I sincerely hope you can join us for either or both events, and I

look forward to seeing you at The Crossings.



As you may be aware, Matt Fox has been a featured as a faculty

member at The Crossings in the past. If you aren't familiar with The

Crossings, it is a progressive learning center, meeting place, and

wellness spa located just outside of Austin.  If you can, please

take a few minutes to become acquainted via their website at

www.thecrossingsaustin.com.



Namaste,



Chuck Ragland

Former UCS DMin Student (1998-2001)

Common Ground: An Experience of InterSpiritual Activism

Father Thomas Keating, Joan Borysenko, Betty Sue Flowers,

Bill (Gorakh) Hayashi, Karen Drucker, Oscar Miro-Quesada

SEPTEMBER 09 – 11, 05

The Crossings -  Austin, TX

Course: 07302-045

Tuition: $275 (see website for accommodation and commuter options)



Join us at this third gathering of Common Ground, where we will co-

create an interfaith community through shared ritual, group creative

process, guided experiential practices, and dialogues of discovery.

Together we will explore structures, methods, and principles for

InterSpiritual activism, so that we may move the work of world peace

forward as a cohesive unit. This meeting will also be a tribute to

Brother Wayne Teasdale, who inspired and guided the founding of both

InterSpiritual Dialogue (ISD) and Common Ground, and who

transitioned last year. Some of Brother Wayne's core teachings will

be illuminated through experiential meditation and contemplation. In

addition to presenters Keating, Borysenko, Flowers, and Hayashi,

representatives of constituencies that Wayne supported will voice

their remembrances.
