The world needs to hear your Dharma: your own spiritual journey,
expressed with truth, humility, and grace.
На этом шестинедельном семинаре, мы научимся делиться своими духовными путями в письменной форме: как писать искренне и уязвимо, как сказать, что мы имеем в виду, и как поддерживать других и получать поддержку в творчестве.
Each session will explore another facet of spiritual writing. We will be writing together, examining the works of renowned writers who write about or lace spirituality through their stories, their essays, their poems. We will hear from contemporary artists writing from a spiritual perspective, and have the opportunity to ask them questions and explore our writing with them.
Кроме того, we will have weekly time to write together for the duration of the course. Each weekly writing session will start with brief meditation practice, a quote, and an optional prompt.
We will discuss and explore how we can connect with the mind of meditation and our own, essential creative force. This course is a safe and supportive space to take risks with our writing, and to find a warm community of fellow writers.
Live sessions will explore these topics and themes:
