Satsang: Interfaith Celebration of Easter and Passover, The Divine Mystery
Online & In-person
$5-$20 | Enroll for free, use promo code FREE.
Join Swami Vimalananda and Surya Stuart Dick for this interfaith celebration. We will open a discussion on the holy day’s mystical and practical significance in Jewish, Christian, and Yogic traditions. There will be time for personal sharing.
Passover is the Jewish holiday of liberation. It represents freedom from the constructs that bind us. But where does that leave us? We know how the Jewish telling of the holiday plays out, but those who were uprooted didn’t know what would happen next. Or how to cope.
Stuart will highlight tools from the Jewish teachings as we search for ways to manage profound personal and communal change.
He’s alive! He’s alive! Jesus died on the cross but after three days. He was alive and showed himself to many people. Even doubting Thomas saw Jesus’ hand with the nail marks. Jesus rose from the dead!
The essence of Easter is that Jesus demonstrated that there is immortality. Only his body died but his essence was alive. What if we are all immortal and only our bodies die and our Self lives forever? Can this really be true?
Please join Swami Vimalananda for a short talk and discussion about this incredible event and its implications.
Everyone is welcome to stay for tea and light snacks afterwards.
Satsang is a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored often through an informal discussion. Although our spiritual paths may diverge, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice. This donation-based program will not be recorded.
People of all faiths are welcome.
