APRIL'S LET US MOVE TOGETHER

This class is accessible to all. Whether you have a basic understanding of PROUT, or have never heard of PROUT, this class will contribute to your understanding of the ways in which we, as a society, can begin to think differently about diversity and how we can employ the theory of PROUT.
SUPPORT OUR FUNDRAISER FOR DHARMALAYA AUDIO EQUIPMENT

After 2 years of zooming, Ananda Seva is opening back up to in-person retreats and events. While we are excited to return to in-person events, we do not want to exclude our friends who have been joining us from afar.

We will move forward with hybrid events at Dharmalaya in order to serve the largest number of people possible. Ac. Gayatrii has taken up an initiative to have a professional sound system installed so that those on Zoom will have the best possible experience when participating in our programs. We are raising funds to support this initiative and are already almost halfway to our goal of $1,600! Please join the effort to increase our collective inspiration and to reach others with a high quality sonic experience! 
NEW ERA CONVERGENCE

Those of us with a vision beyond the crisis system of capitalism are gathering to bring forward prospective solutions, promising models, proactive strategies, and proven practices that can help us build a new era. We invite anyone who is already engaged or aspires to contribute to constructive socio-economic transformation to join us from August 22-25, 2022.
All of this month's programs take place via Zoom. Find more information about each of our spiritual community programs and receive registration links using the events button below.

Thank you to all who are a part of the Art for Service & Blessedness Learning Community!

Transformation Education is halfway through our first learning community on the Arts for Service and Blessedness! It’s been a rich experience for those participating so far, and we are beginning to collaborate with each other on some projects. Hopefully we can offer this again in the future for new and returning participants. Creations shared with the group so far include paintings, poetry, visual art, and music. The group is also working collaboratively on prayer flags for peace. We hope to have much to share at the end of our session in May!
