The Presidio Dialogues - Discovering the Roots of Genuine Security

Discovering the Roots of Genuine Security
Some Questions We'll Consider ...

Has the War on Terror helped us feel safer or is it a metaphor for the state of our collective consciousness? Do we feel more secure today than we did five or six years ago? If consciousness is causal and our outward circumstance reflects our inner consciousness, what unexamined fears might we be harboring? Have we been living in a culture of fear long before 9-11 and the terrorists took over the headlines? What can we do as individuals to transform this culture?



Join in these inquiries of our inner and outer security, the experience and the facts - a subject that is dominating our lives these days.
