Wandelend-lezen.jpg

Teachers of the Han Fortmann Center are organizing a preparation day for walking a ‘walk of wisdom’ on April 16, 2016. This is a trial. Three experienced teachers will accompany pilgrims and there will be a joint lunch at Oortjeshekken. The Han Fortmann Center has been providing courses on spirituality since 1979. See this dangerous or the text of their website below.   

Taster day pilgrimage route Walk of Wisdom

Initiation to make a Pilgrimage

Under the motto Who am I and what is my contribution to the world?, the Han Fortmann Center will give a preview day for walking the Walk of Wisdom on Saturday 16 April from 10.30 am to 4.30 pm.

We start in the Stevenskerk Nijmegen. Damiaan Messing, initiator of the Walk-of-wisdom, introduces the day. Afterwards, Ted van Rijt gives some suggestions for the conversation and reflection along the way. We take a walk of about 12 kilometers and follow the pilgrimage route. On the way we have lunch in Oortjeshekken. Later we will go back to the Stevenskerk in a different way and end there with an exchange and a drink.

Three teachers from the HFC walk along ‘incognito, but in function’ and guide the potential pilgrims. They are: Career counselor, coach and sufi Jacques van Hees, Mindfulness trainer Ted van Rijt and Zen teacher-coach Dick Verstegen. They help the participants as unnoticed as possible to answer the pressing Theme Question: ‘Who am I and what is my contribution to the world?’
