Join us for our special annual service honoring one of the great holidays of the Hindu tradition--MahaShivaratri--which we've celebrated in some way for the past six years as we've better lived into our multicultural, multiracial, and multireligious commitments. "The Great Night of Shiva" is a time of deeping yogic spiritual exercises to overcome powers of illusion, depletion, and corruption in the world. We will be blessed by our honored musical guests Rohan Ramanan and Dani Ekbote. Please note Ramazan begins on Feb. 17 and Lent begins on Feb. 18. We hope to be with you on Sunday!

From Monthly: "Embodying Resilience"

Our theme this month invites us to consider our world, our community, and our lives in the light of the practice of Embodying Resilience. What do we carry within our bodies that guides us, helps us endure, heals us, or that gets in our way? In our hearts and minds? What relationships, practices, vistas, music, art, foods, readings, or activities give us hope and strength when we are grieving or outraged, struggling or spent? Which of these can we lend or share with others? Which can we accept from others? How is resilience like and unlike renewal?
