More information

The philosophy and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi and Jain/Hindu Dharma traditions offer pathways to finding inner and outer peace and harmony. The principle of interconnections of all beings (humans, animals, plants, and micro-organisms) and the contemplative practices (yoga, meditation, shared art/music projects, acts of service, etc.) have the power to cultivate joy, harmony, and good health in turbulent times.
