&lt;p&gt;      I am registered for the June 30 evening talk. I am curious to hear this very famous lady, a profound thinker about very useful topics. This is NOT going to be as esoteric as it sounds, I believe. I think it is going to be fun, enlightening, and useful !!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blessings, OM Bastet &lt;/p&gt;

We will explore the nature, beauties&amp;nbsp;and limits of&amp;nbsp;symbolic representations. You will learn from your own experience with words, images, musical and mathematical notation, logic, jokes, illusions, poems, Koans, and by drawing from nature. Through this exploration, we begin to see through the limits of language and our own thinking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cook-greuter.com/"&gt;Dr. Susanne Cook-Greuter&lt;/a&gt; is an internationally known authority on mature adult development. Her Harvard thesis, &lt;em&gt;Postautonomous Ego Development &lt;/em&gt;(1999), is a landmark study in the characteristics and assessment of late stage meaning makers. As a linguist, she continues to explore and marvel at the intricacies of language and meaning making. Susanne is a founding member of Ken Wilber&amp;#39;s Integral Institute and co-director of its Psychology Center. She values learning through all senses, and wishes to share her experience and knowledge of the examined mind with you. Susanne has worked closely with Jane Loevinger, Robert Kegan and others researching and identifying new findings on late stages of adult ego development.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Don&amp;#39;t miss it. Take a day off work and join us!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pacificintegral.com/workshops/sregister.htm"&gt;Register online&lt;/a&gt; or contact Kari Mays at&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:kari@pacificintegral.com"&gt;kari@pacificintegral.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;or 888.713.7773 x8. &lt;/p&gt;
