LGBTQ+ Satsang: Springtime of the Heart – Satsang Open Mic
April 14 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm PDT
Life is blossoming around us with the advent of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. In this community-centered session, come and share what’s blooming in your practice, your heart, and your mind. Offer a song, a discussion point, a story, a poem, or a favorite excerpt. It can be an original work or a reference. What have you been focused on in your spiritual journey lately? What do you feel called to share?
“When we see the Beloved in each person, it’s like walking through a garden, watching flowers bloom all around us…” – Ram Dass
For those who identify as LGBTQ+.
LGBTQ+ Satsang Mission Statement
The LGBTQ+ Ram Dass Satsang’s mission is to cultivate loving awareness and heart connections in a community of kindred souls. We celebrate our unity in the full spectrum of gender and sexuality in and from a space of supportive openness.
GOALS:
- Create a refuge of satsang for LGBTQ+ individuals through the teachings of Maharaj-ji and Ram Dass
- Promote inclusive transcendence and self-acceptance of our human incarnation as members of the LGBTQ+ community
- Explore the intersection of seva/service & the spectrum of gender and sexuality
- Hold a space for exploring being LGBTQ+ from the perspective of consciousness
- Have a place to have a voice and be a valued part of the community
- Remove barriers from LGBTQ+ identities within the spiritual world
- Help to generate a shift within the collective consciousness through awakening
