Acerca del autor

Nathan R. Kollar has spent his whole life searching for ways to both understand and explain how to become more than we are – to experience the depths of the “now” while searching for the “not yet.” He is Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies at St. John Fisher College, retired Adjunct Professor in the Graduate School of Education at the University of Rochester, and Cofounder and Chair of the Board of the Center for Interfaith Studies and Dialogue. He also chairs the advisory board of Ontario County’s Office for the Aging. He has authored five books the most recent of which is Spiritualities: Past, Present, and Future – an Introduction(2012); edited four, the most recent of which is Poverty and Wealth in Judaism, Christianity and Islam (2016); and, hundreds of reviews and journal articles – The Interfaith Movement in a Liminal Age (2016) being the most recent journal article. Dr. Kollar’s approach to our spiritual life begins with becoming mindful of where we live, who we live with, and what we are doing with our life “now.” Such mindfulness only comes about in dialogue with our physical, social, psychological, and spiritual environment. However, we are not frozen to “where” and “when” we are now but we are always becoming more than we are. We never die. We are always being born. His retreats, workshops, reviews and writings embrace the challenge of change: embracing our losses while continuing to evolve together within an ever expanding cosmos.
