Redeeming Woman: The Feminine Principle in the Divine Plan

Presented by Dr. Deborah Savage, Clinical Faculty

The nature of woman and her place in the scheme of things is an ancient question, one that has been under dispute since the pre-Socratic period. Somewhere in this long history, the sacred meaning of the feminine was lost – subsumed into political squabbles and the quest for power. This presentation will explore the nature of the feminine principle and consider anew the significance of its defining characteristic, that of receptivity, and its implications for the salvation of the world.

Free and open to the public.

Location: O’Shaughnessy Educational Center Auditorium
