FOCUS GROUP INVITATIONAL
At
the recent invitational at Krotona, a gathering of dedicated members both old
and new suggested that now may be the time to offer an occasion where members
with specialized areas of expertise to have the opportunity to meet with each
other in order to connect on a professional as well as spiritual level.
This is not the first time such an event has been proposed or implemented.
During John Algeo's administration, the Society hosted an invitational for
in-depth exploration of Christianity and Theosophy. That gathering resulted in
an enriching body of material on the subject as well as closer connections
among those who participated. With networking being the wave of the future,
this type of event may stimulate the creation of several new threads of connections
for members. This unique opportunity will be made available for Theosophical
workers instead of the Olcott Experience usually occurring at this time of
year.
Members
of the Theosophical Society may apply to participate in the Focus Group
Invitational to be held October 15-18 on the Olcott campus. Participants will
be divided into three groups, each discussing one of the following topics:
1) Visual Arts as an Expression of Theosophy
2) Theosophical Implications in Science
3) Applied Theosophy in Family Relations
In
your participation request, please include the following: your reasons for
wanting to participate, preferred topic, related skill sets, and Theosophical
background. E-mail requests to David Bruce at education@theosophical.org
or send your written request to TSA Department of Education, PO Box 270,
Wheaton, IL, 60187-0270.
