With Professor Francis X Clooney D ate: Sunday\, 22nd June 2014 \; \; Time: 11-1pm Location: Shiva Yo ga Ashram - 27 Tower Road\, Mount Eliza. Professor Francis X Clooney\, a global expert on Hinduism and comparative theology is a priest and Jesuit who lectures at Harvard University. He spoke at the Shiva Symposium in mid -2012 and returns once again to the Shiva Ashram on Sunday 22 June 2014. H is topic\, ‘The Changing Climate of the Church?’ A reporter wrote recentl y\, “Pope Francis is the most talked-about person on the planet.” Time Mag azine named him the person of the year and he is on the cover of Rolling S tone\, a bi-weekly magazine that generally focuses on pop culture and poli tics. In Australia\, we are naturally keen to learn whether the so-called “Francis effect” is a passing phenomenon. Is the ‘Francis Era’ likely to bring greater accord between the institutional church and the people? Pope Francis has himself suggested\, “Open the doors and do something there\, where life calls for it. I would rather have a church that makes mistakes for doing something than one that gets sick from being closed up.” Do his words actually signal a radical change in the Church’s approach? Is he lik ely to re-consider the role of women in the Church or open the doors to th eological explorations or encourage deeper encounters with other religious traditions? About Shiva Symposia: Programs focused on the history and id eas of spirituality\, where guest speakers are invited to talk about their area of expertise. The goal is to share information and ideas and to invi te thought-provoking discussion. Since the program’s creation in 1999\, Sh iva Yoga has hosted over 90 speakers. A symposium typically involves a pre sentation by the guest speaker\, discussion and question and answer sessio ns with the audience. https://www.faithvictoria.org.au/upcoming-events/eve nt/422-the-changing-climate-of-the-church-shiva-interfaith-symposium DTSTART:20140622T110000Z DTEND:20140622T130000Z LOCATION:Shiva Ashram\, 27 Tower Rd\, Mt Eliza (Shiva Ashram\, 27 Tower Rd\ , Mt Eliza) SUMMARY:The Changing Climate of the Church?: Shiva Interfaith Symposium URL:https://www.faithvictoria.org.au/upcoming-events/event/422-the-changing -climate-of-the-church-shiva-interfaith-symposium END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
