On Sunday April 21st, at 5:00PM, we're delighted to host a dialogue with lifelong Gandhian, Arun Bhatt, in our home. To join us, RSVP below.

The intent of this circle to bring together various Bay Area organizational leaders, particularly with a strong presence in India, to connect with each other in the realm of Gandhian values. In particular, the conversation will focus on how service in the world while leading with inner transformation and strong values orientation. Many local organizations like ICA, Narika, Foundation for Excellence, Soul Force Fellows, ServiceSpace and dozen other groups are anticipated to join the circle. And we would love to have you join us!

Arun Bhatt ("Arun-dada") spent decades serving alongside a Gandhian legend, Vinoba Bhave. Walking from village to village all across India, for tens of thousands of miles, he served uplifting the grassroots. As a part of the "Shanti Sena" (peace army), he breathed peace in warring areas -- often in the most remarkable ways. For 13 years, he went to jail every month for a peaceful protest to protect animal life. Stories of how he has transformed lives are almost like folk tales. To top it all off, he did this without owning anything, and selling any of his labor -- ever. Just simply, and powerfully, the power of love. Now, at 86 years of age, his eyes are still shining, his heart still pours out soulful songs, and his presence quietly blesses -- without ever trying to.

The approximate flow of the evening will be: 

5:00PM Welcome and Circle of Introductions
6:00PM Remarks by Arun Dada
6:30PM Q&A
7:30PM Vegetarian Dinner
