The Quest for Meaning in a Secular Age

In today’s talk, David draws on his experience as a lecturer and teacher at La Trobe University. He weaves student’s voices throughout revealing a deep yearning for what spirituality represents. He notes how in this generation young adults frequently turn toward their inner world and intuition rather than structured religion as a trustworthy source of guidance and meaning making. The intimate relationship between Jung’s concept of individuation and the spiritual journey is described. This talk includes some answers to audience questions at the end and also a reference to suicide.
