Save the Oaks: SALON IN THE GROVE

Socrates denied that there was knowledge to be learned from a tree! Is this so?

The Salon in the Grove offers a place and time to discuss the meaning and implications of the tree-sitting protest. Guests and tree-sitters will participate in the salon, which will include discussions, games and experiential lessons learned from the tree sitters and the trees.

In the first session of the Salon, the tree-sitters will tell their
stories of living alone in the trees, protecting the trees. We will
examine those experiences and perspectives as an evolution of
consciousness.

The first Salon will be lead by:

! Laura K. Brown, Ph.D., the Salon host, will put the stories of the
tree-sitters in the context of Metaformic Theory, that suggests a
methodology for the transformation of consciousness.

! Jean Mudge, Ph.D. will highlight the tree stories from the
perspective of Emerson and Thoreau.

For information or to be included in the program, contact Laura by email: lkaybrown [at] hotmail.com or 510 548 3609, or Jean Mudge at 510 548 7268 or jeanmudge [at] comcast.net. Laura and Jean are also looking for participants for future salons.
