Join world-traveling monk Devamrita Swami as he explores world issues and the peak of anxiety, and how we can live beyond the everyday scope of mundane worry. Escape contemporary society’s network of stresses and indulge in an evening of meditation, discussion, and a delicious vegan feast.
About the topic:
In a world of delicate balance, anxiety is now the new norm. Be it personal finance or keeping up with new romance – newer and newer facets of anxiety in the #insta-world occupy our minds and challenge our intelligence. Graduating from Yale and having travelled on every continent of the world for over 45 years, constantly meditating on the highest welfare activity for the benefit of all living entities – Devamrita Swami brings with him timeless wisdom, academic expertise and visionary strategies that may help us transcend helpless anxiety into the realm beyond ‘ordinary peace of mind’.
Living in increasingly turbulent times, we hold on to the ever-illusive dream of ‘global peace.’
Tweeting our way through relationships, we long to just ‘feel alive.’ Competing for jobs with AI, we long for ‘security’.
If feelings of helplessness grip the heart and you wonder what the new world would look like, join us for an evening of discussion with traveling monk Devamrita Swami.
Let’s talk!
