About this Event
Join Us for Gurudev in Seattle!
Join us for a special evening with Srila Bhakti Vedanta Vana Maharaja, a traditional monk, teacher, and author from India who has spent more than three decades sharing timeless wisdom around the world.
Through sacred music, reflection, and conversation, this gathering invites participants to explore themes of inner freedom, compassion, purpose, and lasting happiness in a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere.
The evening will begin with traditional kirtan—uplifting call-and-response music from India's bhakti yoga tradition—followed by a wisdom talk and open Q&A with Maharaja. We will conclude with a complimentary vegetarian feast and community gathering.
Whether you are new to spiritual practice, curious about Eastern wisdom traditions, or simply looking for meaningful connection, all are welcome.
