LGBTQ+ Satsang: Taos or Bust – Stories from Mahasamadhi Bhandara
October 8, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 6:15 pm PDT
Join fellowship hosts Gillian and Ashe for a recap of their recent travels to Maharaj-ji’s Mahasamadhi Bhandara celebration at the Neem Karoli Baba Ashram in Taos, New Mexico. What is sacred space? Who is it for? Who maintains it? And how does inhabiting sacred space affect our practice and worldview?
A spirited gathering honoring our queer fellowship community, this event will include meditation, discussion, and kirtan.
For those who identify as LGBTQ+.
