This week’s topic is “Generosity at the Heart of One of Life’s Greatest Mysteries“.

 

What meaning does generosity embody when we open our minds to accepting one of life’s greatest realities – that in fact we know and master very little. Let us explore the different ways in which facing our experiences with generosity allows us to let go of our preconceptions and taste all of life’s flavours and feel fully alive.

    Dismantling Racism in Our Minds and Hearts

    Recorded : July 15, 2017
