Description
Exploring the Human Spirit is a collection of essays Richard Dance wrote for a study group that grew out of an East-West philosophy course he taught at several colleges in Arizona. His philosophy students asked him to start a study group to explore more deeply the ideas presented in the class. He obliged by writing essays on various topics that he thought would benefit others, and everyone met at his home monthly for a presentation on each essay. These Mindful Medicine Salons unfolded spontaneously over two years with several hundred participants in attendance, creating a wonderful sense of community in the pursuit of self-knowledge. Great thanks go to all the students without whom this book would have never existed.
