Explore the eternal paradox in our movement between, as Jung wrote, "the infinitely personal and universal view of life" in this workshop and free screening of Terrence Malick's award-winning film, The Tree of Life. Using the film as a guide, we will reflect on our own understanding of, and orientation to, this paradox. Through lecture, discussion, and exercises we will consider aspects of the terrifying and awe-inspiring realities of our individual walk through the luminous, mysterious, and heartbreaking experience of being alive. Students may choose to bring a journal (writing materials will be available if needed). |
