Capilano Universe Lecture Series: Bonfires, Ghosts, Libations

Date: Wed. 21 Feb, 2018 7:00 pm - 8:45 pm
Duration: 1 Hour 45 Minutes

Join us for a Capilano Universe Lecture: Bonfires, Ghosts, Libations: An Esoteric Quest in Mongolia, New York and Scotland with Dr. Leonard George.

Dr. Leonard George has always been drawn to the esoteric—to experiences that hint of something beyond. For the summer of 2017, he received a trio of invitations to speak about esoteric matters: at the Mongolian Academy of Sciences in Ulaan Baatar; at the Lily Dale Assembly of Spiritualists in New York; and at a convention of esotericists in Lews Castle, Scotland. Along the way he witnessed tantric rituals and shamanic dances, talked with mediums and meditators, roamed fairy haunts and stone circles older than the pyramids, and enjoyed fine scotch whisky. In this presentation, he will share impressions and images from his summer’s quest.

No registration required, but seating is limited.

Leonard George is the Chair of the School of Social Sciences and a faculty member of the Psychology department at Capilano University. He has written books and articles on a range of topics. George has worked as a bookseller, researcher, cook, assembly line worker, clinical psychologist, hotel handyman, journalist, grocery store clerk and national broadcaster, and has given lectures and seminars around the world on all sorts of things. He is attracted to anything that is vast, intricate or purrs.
