Andrew Cohen to keynote the 2008 Concord Convocation at the Concord School of Philosophy

The Very Edge of the Possible

“I think what's most thrilling for the postmodern self is the discovery that we are literally creating the future, which means we are not separate from the creative principle or God-impulse itself—God is evolving as we evolve. And this moment itself, assuming that one is leaning into it with all of one's being reaching for the future, is potentially the very edge of the possible.”
