Celebrating the 36th SSF-IIIHS International Conference, July 8 – 17, 2011 A Letter from the IIIHS Founder-President Christine Page, MD “Buried Wisdom”
This year, at our 36th Annual International Conference 2011, we will celebrate the emergence today of future sciences of consciousness and healing. These resonate with the great themes of some of humanity’s most ancient spiritual traditions, East and West.
Sean David Morton, PhD “America’s Prophet”
Again we shall be honouring both sacred and secular contributions to the understanding of a new humanity. This is occurring on planet Earth today at a time when ancient spiritual insights have begun to converge with emerging future sciences. We shall witness the appearance of intriguing insights from a new physics, a new biology, a new psychology, and a new medicine. This process would end the estrangement of spirituality and religion from the present considerations of science and society.

ere’s a glance at the many speakers/facilitors who will be participating in this year’s conference:
Honouring both Sacred and Secular Contributions ANCIENT SPIRITUAL INSIGHTS Reclaiming Insights from Humanity’s Great Spiritual Traditions, East & West
&
EMERGING FUTURE SCIENCES Relating these to New Dimensions in Quantum Thinking in the New Sciences of Consciousness & Healing
From the Historical Record From the BRAIN-MIND BULLETIN: Frontiers of Research, Theory & Practice June 21, 1976
A CFCF Radio Commentary, Montreal, 1978 “In three years the IIIHS has progressed from a vision to an influential reality, because it is a concept whose time has come. Participation in the IIIHS is participation in the tomorrow of humankind, today.” — David Patrick
Special to the MONTREAL STAR April 29, 1978 “In a few short years the IIIHS has become one of the most exciting developments in education in the human sciences in North America, with operations in Montreal & several continents around the globe.” “… eminent scientists, scholars, and religious leaders have come together in Montreal for the annual symposia of the IIIHS.” — Canon Kenneth Cleator
The first home of IIIHS public education programs in Montreal September, 1976 – June, 1978 From The GAZETTE, Montreal 1978 “From East & West they get together to discuss their own research and share their own experiences — in ‘Meditation & Mystical Experience’ (1976), in ‘Life, Death, & Physical Research’ (1977), and in ‘Healing & the Human Psyche’ (1978) their experiences of how the human mind & spirit play an important role in life and death, in both disease and healing, often in dramatic and conclusive ways.” — Canon Kenneth Cleator, Religion Ed.
SSF-IIIHS Founders
International group to study consciousness “As a result of the astonishingly successful symposium, held at Concordia University in Montreal earlier this year, the IIIHS has opened an Extension Office on the Concordia Campus. Among the Institute’s Fellows are Marshall McLuhan, Humphrey Osmond, Arthur Koestler, J.B. Rhine, Jan Ehrenwald, Sen. Doris Johnson, Walter Houston Clarke, Stanley Dean, J. Norman Emerson, Rabbi Joseph Gelberman, Douglas Dean, Canon William Raucher & Robert van de Castle. Fr. John Rossner, Department of Religion, Sir George Williams Campus, Concordia U., is president of the Institute. The symposium had a considerable impact on the community. The attendance (10,150) is believed the largest at any event sponsored either by Concordia or McGill University — perhaps the largest at any ‘consciousness’ program ever held in North America.”

Africa Project
in Assisting South African
Caregivers and Institutions
for Abandoned, Abused,
and Sick Children Each year in December, the International Institute of Integral Human Sciences sends a mission team to Africa, to assist South African caregivers and institutions who have rescued and taken-in abandoned, abused, and sick children. We work with the Takalani Center in Soweto, which harbours 1,000 children and adults, the Helen Bishop School for the Physically Challenged in Kimberly, with 400 children, the Thuson Home for Abandoned Children also in Kimberly, with 165 children, and the African Independent Orthodox Church, which serves thousands of the poorest of the poor over a 400 km area. We bring encouragement and volunteer service with the caregivers, and provide donation cheques and lots and lots of food, clothes, toys, supplies, and equipment for the handicapped, abandoned, dying, abused, orphaned, and suffering children. All of the directors of these organizations are efficient, dedicated, and knowledgeable, but, of course, they lack funds. Care is often limited to the basics of feeding, turning (for the bed-ridden), and bathing. The IIIHS hopes you will help us to bring relief to these precious children, through your generous donations. Please answer our call. Love and light, Dr. Marilyn and Fr. John Rossner P.S. For a short overview of last year’s mission, please visit our website at www.iiihs.org and look for The Africa Project link.
