Cetr Information

CETR is an independent space for reflection, study and teaching interested in finding out more about ideas connected to religious experience in contemporary society. It aims to increase awareness about the diversity of religious experience and promotes activities which will encourage a deeper examination of the challenges society and religion needs to face up to within a cultural environment characterised by globalisation, continuous innovation and the transformation of the accepted order of things. "The English version of the website (is still under construction and) will be enriched gradually. Meanwhile, we offer an introduction to the centre and its activities as well as a selection of articles." CETR is a study centre specialising in the study of the universal nature of religious experience and the established religions. It is based in Barcelona, Spain. It's a secular centre that offers the possibility of accessing the knowledge of the wisdom of religious traditions, their Masters and their Great Books. Through a program of seminars, practical workshops, a library and a meditation room the Center provides the opportunity to study the teachings and methods of silent practice which are revealed as part of the legacy of religious traditions. It aims to help the growth of human qualities and the inner personal life of people living in a society which is responsible for the development of its own destiny and that of the planet. In order to achieve our objective it is necessary to follow closely the continuous transformations taking place in out societies, both cultural and otherwise. For this reason our program includes subjects concerned with the changing state of society and others about religious experience and the different religious traditions. CETR activities are addressed, indistinctly, to all people interested in the deep dimension of existence. The Centre sets out to sustain a double line of work. On the one hand it organises an open program of teaching activities (courses, seminars, conferences, roundtables, cinema cycles) and on the other hand it encourages investigation into religious phenomena and spiritual development in the contemporary world.
