Michael,
 
My talk was a few months ago.  I know Dr.J Barker real well.   HE WAS ONE of the few professors who came to my talk.   That day he impressed many students who did not know that he was open to esoteric traditions.  So was I.  Yes I'm talking about the old dairy farm at Oyster Bay.  I was under the impression that a student movement from the Faculty of Agriculture was taking over and writing up a proposal.  I was asked to participate, but since I was leaving the province, I declined.
 
I wish them success.
 
Small world I guess..
 
Robin

Robin-How long ago did you give the talk at UBC?  The latest info. I assume you mean the old dairy farm at Oyster Bay?  That being the case, the latest is that they want to get rid of it.  One of the parents of one of our companions at Camphill (Dr. Johon Barker) is on the faculty of Forestry, UBC.  He alerted us and BD Glenora Farm, etc. and we were interested in taking it over.  Nothing much there except a couple of old decrepit buildings, grass and forest.  Our BC BD AGM was on the premises but, the meeting regarding using the property was a total flop.  Michael

SStorch,
 
Perhaps this is true.  But, I must say that I've observed positive change in the 'so called' scientific community.  For now, change is difficult to see because of its state of condition.   I'd say its more internal then external.   Many of the younger scientists are freely admitting that spirituality needs to be incorporated in their professional lives, including research endeavors.    Unfortunately, many 'leaders' in the scientific milieu are very materialistic.   This makes it very difficult for the younger crowd to manifest the internal change into something more observable.   But things are brewing.  No doubt.   For example, last year I gave a talk about biodynamic agriculture and forestry at the University of British Columbia.   It was very well received as students come from both the forestry agriculture departments came.  They are now interesting in managing their UBC farm with some BD concepts.
 
I'm certain that spirituality is slowly permeating other Universities in the world.   Is your glass half full or half empty...
 
Regards,
 
Robin

Lily destroyed much of her life's work because it was not accepted bythe
scientific community; they were not ready for it.  What a shame, not much has
changed...sstorch
