ANGER: THE TWISTED LIGHT A journey into the meaning of anger LECTURE, 29th of September, 2006, 7:00-8:30 PM What is anger? What is any emotion in its inner nature? This evening's lecture will examine emotion as misplaced cognitive power and as a failed gesture of creativity and perception. Emotion is the fallen, self-oriented form of feeling -- that heightened sensitivity by which we know and contribute to the world. We will consider whether anger is ever justified, and how to transform it into the power of meditation. WORKSHOP: 30th of September, 2006, 9:00-4:30PM Novalis asked, "Do we learn to feel only once?" As children, we learn anger and the other emotions without conscious intention. To learn to feel a second time requires intentional meditative practice. Today's workshop will engage participants in exercises and meditations that begin to shift our feeling-life both outward and upward. The atmosphere is informal and light, and involves intensive group meditation. Michael Lipson, PhD, is a Clinical Psychologist in independent practice in Great Barrington, MA. The author of Stairway of Surprise: Six Steps to a Creative Life (Steiner books, 2002), he is also the translator of numerous books by G. Kuehlewind and of R. Steiner's Intuitive Thinking as a Spiritual Path. He teaches meditation internationally. Both the lecture and the workshop will be in the Auditorium of The Waldorf School of Pittsburgh ( 201 S. Winebiddle St - 412-441-5792) Costs: Lecture: $7; Workshop: $35. Workshop and Lecture: $40. Scholarships available.
