The University of Florida offers this new Summer B course which will explore the boundaries of psychology and spirituality by contrasting old and new worldviews. We will visit the Cathedral at Chartres which is famous for the labyrinth, a symbol for spiritual pilgrimage and personal transformation. We will learn about crossing cultural boundaries in Western and Eastern religious traditions by visiting two intentional monastic communities for week-long immersion experiences: the Christian Ecumenical Community of Taize and the Buddhist community of Plum Village. We will tour historic and sacred sites in the Dordogne region famous for the Caves at Lascaux II and the medieval pilgrimage site of Rocamadour. All classes and experiential learning will be conducted in English.
