DESCRIPTION:Dr. Tanya Luhrmann will talk about her research on voices and s
	piritual experiences. Food will be provided! \n\n"They are strange experie
	nces—a voice whispered in the wind\, a god who speaks from on high—but far
	 more common than we think. At the beginning of most great religions lies 
	a voice. Who hears such voices? I have spoken to hundreds of people\, in m
	any countries\, who have heard voices\, some only once\, some more often. 
	Most of these people are not psychiatrically ill. Some are. In this talk I
	 will discuss what we know about the difference between mad voices and san
	e voices\, and the evidence that the way we think about voices changes our
	 experience of them—and may soften the impact of psychosis. Most fundament
	ally\, I will argue that voices teach us something about consciousness: ab
	out how we humans feel our thoughts\, about our contradictory intuitions a
	bout our own thoughts\, and how these contradictions—and the way they are 
	elaborated or ignored by local culture—lie at the heart of the voice exper
	ience."\n\nEvent Website: https://projectinspireguestspeakers.squarespace.
