BOOK LAUNCH: ‘Listening with Love’ by Vishwam Gurudas

Wednesday October 21 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

You are warmly invited to this peaceful evening of heart meditation and discussion where we explore together what it means to really Listen with Love, with radical yoga instructor and thinker Vishwam Gurudas

Many of us are deeply concerned about what’s happening in the world, in our communities, and in the lives of the people closest to us. We might wonder, why do so many systems seem to be stuck in ways that are harming people and planet? Our schools and healthcare systems, ecosystems and economies, political systems and more are in crisis while most of us feel helpless to help. We seem locked in. But what if we could loosen the knots that bind us, and in doing so help those around us to also loosen their own knots? What might seem like impossibly huge global systems can only keep going the way they are if we remain tight, closed and disconnected. As we open our hearts and minds, rediscover our voices and our capacity to listen with deep compassion, things shift. Systems change. Including our own. Are you ready for the adventure? This is the Revolution of Love.

This special evening is a unique opportunity to connect with others who care about our world, who want to help nurture vibrant community, and are willing to Listen with Love. Sharing heart meditation is one simple way to help find the inner quiet and the deep, abiding love for life that can support us all. All welcome!
