Happy Pride Month!

National Indigenous History Month in Canada begins today, June 1. National Indigenous Peoples Day is coming up on June 21.
Both are occasions to recognize and celebrate the heritage, cultures, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis people in Canada, as well as to continue to advance truth and reconciliation.

Dear MSR-AOM - Management Spirituality and Religion Division community,

We warmly invite you to join us for the 2026 MSR Research Colloquium, "The Mystical and Research: Dwelling at the Threshold of Knowing."
https://lnkd.in/dzTNd4bg

For the second plenary of our research colloquium, we invite you to journey with us to Australia.

What might sacred and visionary leadership look like when grounded in ancestral Law, Country, ceremony, and oral teaching? In this featured plenary, Dr. Tjanara Goreng will explore Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing as pathways into leadership, inquiry, and transformation.

📅 The second plenary begins on June 12 at this time across these time zones:
🇺🇸 3:00 AM EDT — New York, North America
🇪🇺 9:00 AM CEST — Brussels, European Union
🇮🇳 12:30 PM IST — New Delhi, India
🇦🇺 5:00 PM AEST — Canberra, Australia

Across the adjacent sessions before and after this plenary, we will also explore:
- How might researchers measure the unmeasurable?
- How does mysticism speak across spiritual traditions?
- How can divination, uncertainty, and decision-making illuminate entangled systems?
- What may emerge from the researcher's inner journey through self, suffering, and graced knowing?

If you are intrigued by mystical experience, Indigenous wisdom, contemplative inquiry, sacred leadership, and transformative ways of knowing, we warmly invite you to join us.

Dear MSR-AOM - Management Spirituality and Religion Division Community,

What happens in the brain during experiences of oneness, surrender, and spiritual transformation?

How might science help us understand mystical experience while still honoring its depth, mystery, and lived meaning?

We are delighted to invite you to the 2026 MSR Research Colloquium:
"The Mystical and Research: Dwelling at the Threshold of Knowing." 🌌

📅 We begin on June 11 at this time across these timezones:
🇺🇸 10:00 AM EDT - New York, North America
🇪🇺 4:00 PM CEST - Brussels, European Union
🇮🇳 7:30 PM IST - New Delhi, India
🇦🇺 12:00 AM AEST (next day) - Canberra, Australia

🔜 Opening Plenary featuring Andrew Newberg, M.D., co-hosted by Stacey Guenther, PhD, PCC and Naida Culshaw.

Dr. Newberg’s keynote will explore the biological correlates of mystical experiences and brain structures 🧠, followed by a dialogue with MSR Flamekeeper Jody Fry and plenary participants.

And the conversation continues through thought-provoking sessions exploring questions such as:
🔹 How might timelessness become a spiritual bypass?
🔹 How can meditative inquiry shape teaching, research, and creation?
🔹 What becomes possible when researchers refuse to let conventional rigor forbid insight?
🔹 What other ways of knowing might research make space for?

If you are intrigued by mystical experiences, contemplative inquiry, and transformative ways of knowing, we warmly invite you to join us 🌿
