Observing 60 years

The first time Leon MacLaren met Shri Shantananda Saraswati was on December 11, 1965. To observe this Diamond Anniversary, we will read out loud the entire 1965 Conversations at 29 Madison Avenue, Toronto. The intention is that the more the content of the Conversations is realized in experience and valued by us, the more likely it is that it will endure and inspire for 1000 years and beyond.

Join us in person or online for an uplifting listening exercise and/or a potluck lunch at 29 Madison Avenue. Attend when you wish and for as long as you wish

Date: Saturday, December 13, 10 – 5 pm (3 2-hour sessions)
Platform: Hybrid, ie In-person (29 Madison Avenue, Toronto) and Virtual via Zoom
Cost: It’s FREE and All are Welcome!
Prerequisite: None
