Living a Spiritual Life in the World

“Living a spiritual life in the world” was the title for the workshop on Sunday, 11th Sept at Yoga Off Broadway in Eagle, Colorado. About 24 spiritual seekers gathered for the two and a half hour exploration and sharing of practical spiritual tools that can be applied in daily life.

Among the topics covered were: 1. Making a commitment with oneself to make progress on the spiritual path.

Expressing gratitude and appreciation is one of the things we covered in class today. Dandapani takes a moment to express his gratitude and appreciation to Kelly Western for hosting these workshops.
