Feeling Together

Workshop & In-conversation with Grace Ndiritu & Lama Rinchen Polma.
How can we use spirituality in the context of global politics to navigate the multifaceted challenges we face today? From the street to the temple how can we use our minds and hearts to be better activists and creative and spiritual practitioners?
In this workshop Grace Ndiritu and her Tibetan Buddhist teacher, the Venerable Lama Rinchen Palmo from the Kagyu lineage, will explore the subject of Radical Spirituality together with participants. Kagyu translates as "Whispered Transmission” and incorporates learning through personal experience, meditation and a deep connection between teacher and student.
