January’s theme: Power and Discomfort
Jan 21: No Contest
Speaker: Rev Lynn Harrison
Music: Eve Goldberg
The desire for power and “winning” is a familiar theme in our
world, not only in international conflicts but in our personal
relationships and careers. How would our lives change if we took down
the ladders of competition that have so preoccupied us? This can be part
of UU “8th Principle” work as well our own spiritual growth. Working
alongside musical colleague Eve Goldberg, Rev. Lynn Harrison reflects on
the subject of competition and power, drawing on spiritual teachers such
as Thich Nhat Hanh and others.
