S2 #4.2 | Without Plurality, There Can Be No Hospitality | Elias Gomez Gonzalez (ENG)
Description
On this episode, I am accompanied by a dear philosopher, writer, and friend, Elías González Gómez. Elias focuses on interreligious dialogue and the bridge between mysticism and the struggle to build a new world. He has collaborated with different interreligious groups, as well as indigenous and spiritual communities. He is currently a professor at ITESO and at Ibero León. He collaborates with the Universidad de la Tierra Oaxaca and is a member of the Center for Studies of Religion and Society of the University of Guadalajara.
He is a spiritual guide, Zen practitioner and creator of study and dialogue groups around mysticism. Elias coordinates the blog Amanecer. He is the author of the following books: Encuentro, Re-ligación y Diálogo: Reflexiones hacia un diálogo Inter-Re-ligioso; Impotente Ternura: Descubrirte en lo pequeño; and Convivencialidad y resistencia política desde abajo: La herencia de Iván Illich en México.
Here we talk about the new wave of tourists and migrants in Mexico and the resentment and hatred that has come out as a result. We talk about spiritual tourism, plurality and radical hospitality, and what it means to know the other or the other in our times.
Season 2 is dedicated to our late friend and mentor Gustavo Esteva, grandfather, sage, and co-founder of Universidad de la Tierra in Oaxaca, Mexico. These episodes have been planned and organized in collaboration with our colleagues from Unitierra Oaxaca.
They are dispatches of the resistance.
