Saturday, November 16, 10am-2pm, Join us in person or on livestream

An interactive, experiential workshop on the “Beatitudes” taken from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount

Jesus teaches “Blessed are the meek“ and “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” What is the deeper meaning of the Beatitudes? Explore, sing, and meditate on each Beatitude during this Saturday morning retreat.

Explore the philosophy, the spirit and the essence of the teachings of Jesus through the Beatitudes. These were part of the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew.

This sermon marks a shift from the letter of the law to the spirit of the law, and emphasizes internal transformation over the following of external practices.

The Beatitudes point the way to our own inner transformation, emphasizing the qualities of meekness (humility), mercy (generosity), purity of heart, peacemaking and more. Each Beatitude is a proverb-like expression that reveals itself in contemplation.

Instructors: Nayaswami Shanti is joined by musicians Chaitanya Mahoney and Todd Billingsley, among others
