Presented by  Vlado Šolc

Are you concerned about the level of conflict in our communities and the spread of (or growing belief in) numerous conspiracy theories?  In his presentation and workshop, Vlado Šolc will explore the psychological dynamics of “dark religion”—what happens when spirituality ignores or separates itself from its own vital roots, leading to religions that by their very nature repress individuation. Groups and individuals overtaken by the unconscious energies of archetypes then are susceptible to all sorts of social ills, conflicts, terrorism, and wars. 

Seating is limited. Please register in advance.
