Awakin Surat: Youth Circle
"With every breath, the old moment is lost; a new moment arrives. We exhale and we let go of the old moment. It is lost to us. In doing so, we let go of the person we used to be. We inhale and breathe in the moment that is becoming. In doing so, we welcome the person we are becoming. We repeat the process. This is meditation. This is renewal. This is life." --Lama Surya Das
A few of us come together for Youth Circles, every other week in the city of Surat. We typically sit in silence, share some aha-moments on a topic relevant for youth every week, and some food and conversation afterwards. There are no teachers or agendas. To attend our next circle, let us know.
Circle Format
First Part Collective silence. For first-timers, this primer on meditation may be helpful.
Second Part We host a unique topic each, and then we do a circle of sharing around it. Eg. Topic: Beauty we see in us. And question: What is one thing you like about yourself?
Third Part Share a meal together, followed by informal interaction.
There is no cost to attend; the circle is offered as a humble gift by a fellow youth.
We are profoundly grateful that our paths have crossed in this sacred way. Please do get in touch if you have any questions. We look forward to growing in stillness and service, together.
