Two more discussions on spiritual parenting


Άλλη μια ομιλία που οργανώνουμε με την Έλντα. Ότι και να πω για να σας ενθαρρύνω να γνωρίσετε τον Πέδρο θα είναι λίγο... Έχει υπάρξει ανεκτίμητος οδηγός για μένα και τον Μύρωνα - γίναμε "οικογένεια" μαζί του.

Our gatherings will end with a special meditation.
Pedro will speak in Spanish – there will be translation to Greek

"Listening to Children's Wisdom": a talk with Didi

"Where are children's minds on the continuum of consciousness? Yogic tradition sees the mind as having many layers. While usual adult consciousness stems from highly developed intellectual and material levels, children's awareness exists primarily in other subtler realms. From these realms comes much wisdom and particularly unique insights.

We will look at these levels of consciousness and discuss examples of how children teach and guide us as much as we teach and guide them".
The presentation will be in English, given by Didi Ananda Uttama, a yogic nun in Ananda Marga. Didi ran the NeoHumanist Center in Marousi for 7 years and now works with mothers and children in several different Mediterranean countries.

When: Tuesday 13 December, 16:00-18 :00
 
Where: Aristofanous 41, Halandri (bell: Takis Krizopoulos, floor: -1) 
Donation of 10 euros apreaciated
