Armed with Yoga, Stand and Fight

*Values and Strategies for Progressive Spiritual Activism*

A Presentation at Namas Day in Arlington, Virginia

Political positions are not about policy; they’re about morality. Voters don’t vote in accordance with their self-interest: they vote in accordance with their values. In a political climate where the metaphysical realm of values and moral imperatives govern the physical realm of policies and their consequences, it’s all the more important to have a clear sense of how spiritual knowledge helps us to live purpose-driven lives. Engagement with the world is an essential component of personal spiritual development. In this session, Hari-kirtana das will describe six core values of yoga and demonstrate how we can translate those values into clearly defined strategies for social engagement. Participants will gain knowledge of how universal principles of spiritual activism work, how we can imbue our activism with spiritual power, and how to maintain our equilibrium in a challenging socio-political environment.
