An Extended Moment:
Since age twelve, I\u27ve fled from something, not daring to look back. I\u27ve always wondered who or what it is and why I\u27m unable to fight back. One winter night in 2021, the chase came to an end. Finally, a mysterious figure stood behind me. A surge of extreme fear calmed me as I peacefully turned around and asked why. Do you not know? The whispered response struck a nerve, merging the me from dreams, the me from wakefulness, and the me chasing myself. A carefree person who forgot everything, suddenly recall all past in a moment. That moment stretched indefinitely, fading in detail but leaving lingering emotions--an echo of consciousness.https://lux.lawrence.edu/artgallery_se2023/1011/thumbnail.jp

On the Roads: Catholic and Buddhist Pilgrimage
Madera Allan, associate professor of Spanish, called her visit last summer to the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal stunning and beautiful, a glimpse into a way of life “infused with a frenetic, spiritual energy.”
Constance Kassor, associate professor of religious studies, called her visit to Camino de Santiago in northwestern Spain last summer an incredible journey—a 100-kilometer pilgrimage leading to the awe-inspiring cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.
The two Lawrence University professors made those journeys together, and on Friday afternoon they shared the experience in Memorial Chapel at Lawrence’s Honors Convocation, the third and final Convocation of the 2022-23 academic year.
Their Convocation address, On the Roads: Catholic and Buddhist Pilgrimage, explored the who, why, and where of pilgrimage. They described the special sort of community forged on pilgrimage and compared it to the community we make together at Lawrence.
Allan traveled to Nepal at Kassor’s invite, visiting together the shrines, temples, and stupas of Kathmandu, all stunningly beautiful.
And Kassor traveled to Spain at Allan’s invite, making the week-long pilgrimage along coastal Spain together on foot.
Kassor said arriving at the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela left her breathless—and not just because they had walked for a week straight in temperatures hovering above 100 degrees.
“I was just amazed about so many things about the Camino,” she said.
Their address, which included photos of their journeys, was insightful, thoughtful, and fun
