What comes after the world we’ve known? As religious affiliation shifts, technologies reshape our inner lives, and communities search for trustworthy sources of meaning, the future of spirituality has never felt more urgent – or more open. This three-lecture series brings the best of contemporary science and humanities into conversation with lived spiritual practice.
