"Every known culture in human history organized its creative energies by means of its cosmological epic - its account of where the Universe came from, how it developed into its present state, and what meaningful role humans play in the midst of this cosmic drama." - Brian Swimme

Dr. Edwards introduces The Universe Story with a presentation called "The Power of Story", about just how powerful the stories are that we tell ourselves. Participants will also join him for a walking meditation, the Cosmic Walk.
