A Course on Evolutionary Enlightenment
from EnlightenNext

WEEKEND COURSE:

About Evolutionary Enlightenment :

We live in a time when it is easy to lose our footing, doubt the meaning of life, and sometimes, question our very existence.

Those of us with an expanded world view often see ourselves as one in seven billion people. Too many people using resources, causing pollution, war, suffering. It is very easy for a modern person with intelligence and conscience to become cynical and to feel helpless in the face of global concerns.

Evolutionary Enlightenment presents a revolutionary new potential for individual and collective human development that is just emerging in consciousness. This five-week course will leave you energized with a new meaning and purpose for life, and help you come together with other like souls in a revolution of consciousness.

Evolutionary Enlightenment is developed by Andrew Cohen, the publisher of What is Enlightenment Magazine. Andrew Cohen’s teaching of Evolutionary Enlightenment presents a revolutionary new potential for individual and collective human development that is just emerging in consciousness. Using multi-media presentations and dialogue, this five-week course systematically explores the fundamental principles and philosophy of this contemporary enlightenment teaching. Time between each class is enriched by student online discussion forums, and reflection exercises.
