NEW FROM OUR WONDERFUL FRIENDS AT SAT YOGA: We have two fascinating events that I want to tell you all about. The first, coming up at the end of August, is another one of Arts, Culture and Spirituality weekends. We will be performing two full productions of one-act classic comedy plays by Murray Schisgal; The Typists and The Tiger. For anyone who is thirsty to laugh their way to liberation and to enjoy live theater in English, this is an event not to be missed! You can read more here: https://www.satyoga.org/events/arts-and-culture-weekend And finally, I've saved the best to last; I think this is something that you will be super excited about: On September 22 we will begin a 7-day retreat; How to Flourish as Community: Living in Joy in a Time of Planetary Phase Transition. The Sat Yoga Ashram community has gained priceless experience from our own steep learning curve in our shift from vision into manifestation. We have come to understand what is needed to sustain an enduring community with a lifestyle that balances constraint with creativity, duty with freedom, growth with consistency, law with love, and spiritual realization with re-education. We remain humbly engaged in endless learning and sharing. This retreat will be a forum that we hope can both inspire and support. We look forward to also receive new information and perspectives—and opportunities for mutual benefit—by inviting all those who are either members of communities, leaders, or those who are thinking of joining a community and want a deeper sense of what is involved, what mistakes to avoid, and how to augment our thriving lifestyle.
