Just Surviving or Happily Thriving: Building a Sustainable Lifestyle
Keeping up with the bills, repaying the loans or pressures from work and school laced with varieties of intoxication, distractions, and fleeting relations – maybe what we call life today. Is this as good as it gets?
Is the go-go-go lifestyle the best you can get? Or is it the only one you ever knew?
If you ever find yourself deeply question the sustainability of your current lifestyle pursuits, join us for a weekend retreat with world-traveling monk Devamrita Swami as he helps us answer the question: “Is this the best lifestyle we can grant ourselves?” Get away from the dizzying pace of the city into the arms of nature and hear your inner voice raise the essential question: “Is there significance and meaning to our life beyond matter and the pursuit of it?”
About Devamrita Swami:
