The Joy of Quiet – An important part of what we do..

MPA — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 20:43:30 +0000

This recent article, “The Joy of Quiet,” in the New York Time explains an important part of our program at Miri Piri Academy; the urgency of slowing down and finding the time and space to think and to meditate. Here is an excerpt:

“The urgency of slowing down — to find the time and space to think — is nothing new, of course, and wiser souls have always reminded us that the more attention we pay to the moment, the less time and energy we have to place it in some larger context. “Distraction is the only thing that consoles us for our miseries,” the French philosopher Blaise Pascal wrote in the 17th century, “and yet it is itself the greatest of our miseries.”

Wall Photos”..I went right after rahrass to the golden temple and stayed there ALL NIGHT because of Guru Ramdas’s b-day.
Not all of the school went but you could choose to go and about 30 people went. We listened to kirtan for an hour and then we got chai at like 12:00am …. We left with the school after seva, so we were at the golden temple all night!!”
