SUMMARY:Eastern Orthodoxy and “Mysticism”:  The Transformation of the Senses
DESCRIPTION:2010 Seminar with Hieromonk Irenei Steenberg\, Ph.D.\nHeiromonk Irenei \nThere is a yearning for mystical experience in our times\, a longing to go beyond the narrow confines of sensory data to find meaning and purpose\, to experience the Absolute. At the same time there is skepticism and misunderstanding about what constitutes authentic Christian mysticism. Some contemporary Christians consider any talk of mysticism as the result of bad theology which breeds errors in spirituality. \nOthers consider Pentecostal or charismatic expressions as authentic mystical experiences. Growing numbers seek mystical experiences and the esoteric through New Age meditation methods\, blends of Buddhist thought\, Native American spirituality\, Hinduism and yoga\, along with shamanism\, paganism\, eco-spirituality and Wicca. \nFor Eastern Orthodox Christianity\, often called the “inner tradition of Christianity\,” the foundations for Christian spirituality — and what Orthodoxy more authentically considers “the mystical life” — were laid by the early Christian ascetics and monastics of the Church. \nIn the silence of the desert\, in the solitude of the cell\, free from worldly entanglements\, one could ascend to the contemplation and knowledge of God\, and loving union with Him. This inner tradition of becoming “sharers of the divine nature” (2 Peter: 4 ) — all but lost to modern Christianity — survives\, almost unchanged over the centuries in certain corners of the Eastern Orthodox Church. \nHieromonk Irenei is a Russian Orthodox monk\, priest\, PhD. in theology\, professor and author of numerous books and articles on early Church fathers and theology. He serves at Saint Tikhon’s Church\, San Francisco. He is also the Principal of the St. John of San Francisco Orthodox Academy and Visiting Professor in Orthodox Studies at Santa Clara University. Listen to his podcast on Ancient Faith Radio called “A Word From the Holy Fathers.”  \nFriday. November 5 – 7pm and  Saturday November 6 – 10am- 3pm \nST.

SUMMARY:Retreat -- The Light of the East: The History and Spirituality of the Eastern Churches
DESCRIPTION:Christ Pantocrator (Almighty) What are the Eastern Churches\, and why should we care? In the words of Pope John Paul II\, “the venerable and ancient tradition of the Eastern Churches is an integral part of the heritage of Christ’s Church\, [and so] the first need for Catholics is to be familiar with that tradition\, so as to be nourished by it and to encourage the process of unity in the best way possible for each.” \nPromoting a vision of a Church “breathing with two lungs\,” this workshop will give believers of all traditions insights into where the Eastern Churches come from\, and how their liturgy and spirituality can help make us all better Christians. \nPresenters: Abbot Nicholas Zachariadis and Hieromonk Maximos \nRoom\, board\, and tuition: $260 single; $170 shared \nHoly Resurrection Romanian Greek-Catholic Monastery\nSt. Andrew Abbey\n31001 North Valyermo Road\nValyermo\, CA 93563 \n661-944-2178\nRetreats@valyermo.com\nwww.saintandrewsabbey.com \nMailing address\nPO Box 40  \nValyermo\, CA 93563
