Workshop is limited to 50 participants.Rogue Valley Metaphysical Library and Event Center presents two special evenings with renowned social justice attorney Daniel Sheehan to present and discuss his New Paradigm Evaluation of The First Hundred Days of the current administration. Mr. Sheehan will present his evaluation of the principles, policies and programs that the current political leadership is presently implementing, and the current “crisis” which he sees befalling us between now and the year 2012.We are living in an extraordinary time in history with enormous species-level challenges and unprecedented opportunities. Within this context, Attorney Daniel Sheehan offers his analysis of the actual present social, political, and spiritual state of consciousness or “Worldview” of current American and world leaders.Mr. Sheehan will explain what beliefs make an internally-consistent “Worldview” – which include a “New Paradigm Worldview”, an “Old Paradigm Worldview”, a “Conservative Worldview”, a “Liberal Worldview”, and the various other worldviews in between. The beliefs include:· The “Cosmology” of that Worldview- beliefs about how our Physical Universe came into physical being and pursuant to what specific physical “Universal Laws” it is unfolding.· The “Teleology” of that Worldview- the beliefs about whether and in what manner, our physical Universe is “unfolding” pursuant to any “Purpose” or specific “Objective”.· The “Ontological Belief” of that Worldview- beliefs about how consciousness, especially Human consciousness, came into being (out of the apparently NON-conscious physical elements of matter in the Universe).· The “Epistemological” Belief of that Worldview- the belief s about what means or “senses” are at the disposal of Human Beings, by means of which we access “objective reality”.Mr. Sheehan will explain that an “internally-self-referentially-consistent” set of answers to these four “cosmic questions” will reveal a very specific set of principles. People adherent to those principles will consequently adopt a very specific “Mode of Ethical Reasoning”From a “New Paradigm Worldview Perspective”, Mr. Sheehan will analyze the current administration’s ability to stave off, or to at least minimize the potentially catastrophic consequences of the coming 2012 “crisis.”Format: 90 minute lecture followed by audience Q&A.Presenter’s Biography:Daniel Sheehan is a Harvard-educated constitutional lawyer and social ethics scholar involved with many significant and high-profile civil rights and social justice cases during the last 20 years.
