John Main Seminar 2003 - Speakers Panel on Bede Griffiths

The 10th anniversary of Bede Griffiths' death summoned us to an ever-deeper understanding of his influence and inspiration and to a joyful celebration of his life and teaching.

A prophetic pioneer of inter-religious dialogue, a courageous voice for justice and truth on all issues, a Christian monk and mystic of profound depth, a much-loved spiritual father and friend, Bede Griffiths has still many riches to reveal in his vision of the future of Christianity and of the spiritual consciousness of humanity.To do justice to his multi-faceted personality and his comprehensive vision a number of speakers came together to present the Seminar:

Shirley du Boulay
Author of the acclaimed biography of Bede Griffiths, "Beyond the Darkness"

Bruno Barnhart OSB Cam
A Benedictine Camaldolese monk from Big Sur, California, a friend of Fr Bede, a scholar of his work and compiler of the anthology "The One Light".
