A vision of a better world
"These International Festivals are my favourite thing"
- Matthew, USA
A Spiritual Holiday
When you arrive at an International Festival the first thing you notice is that you are among like-minded people with an extraordinary feeling of harmony and familiarity.
Where does this sense of familiarity come from?
Because everyone at the Festival has the same spiritual aspiration and intention, and is following the same Spiritual Guide, everyone we meet feels like family - a spiritual family traveling together on the same inner path.
This feeling of shared purpose and mutual support is both inspiring and empowering, and opens our mind to a vision of a better world - a vision that actually seems achievable.
We experience this union of diversity and harmony everywhere - among the people listening and meditating in the Temple, the children in the kids area, and the assembly of precious Teachers leading the Festival.
