У каждого из нас свое представление о религии, в том или ином виде она окружает нас повсюду. Публикуем запись беседы Фариса Нофала, Всеволода Золотухина и Андрея Лукашева — они обсудили проблему демаркации философского, религиоведческого и теологического знания, систематизацию религиозного материала и рационализацию мистического опыта.

Это третья публикация из серии «Неявные знания» (Tacit Knowledges) — образовательной программы CCA, посвященной способам понимания философии и взаимодействия с ней. Беседа ученых подготовлена в партнерстве с Фондом исследований исламской культуры имени Ибн Сины, основанным в 2007 году. Эта организация объединяет представителей научного и студенческого сообщества, занятых исследованиями исламской культуры, науки и философии.

Original script that was commissioned specially for the project (no) borders, brilliant acting and sound design would immerse the listener into a fairytale atmosphere.

The story's protagonist Ali, a young pear hunter, in the search of true friends overcomes different obstacles thanks to his perseverance and moral courage. The production unites tradition and contemporaneity, creating a safe space where the good defeats the evil, while the faith in miracle could change even the most insurmountable barriers.
