Lectures by James Miller
November 18-19, 2014
The monumental task that China faces in the 21st century is to create a way of development that does not destroy the ecological foundations for the life and livelihood of its 1.4 billion citizens. This requires a creative leap beyond the Enlightenment mentality and the Western model of industrialization. Can China’s cultural traditions, its religious values, ideals and ways of life, play a role in building a sustainable China?
You are invited to join James Miller in California to discuss the contribution of Daoism, China’s indigenous religion, to this urgent debate.
