The Earth turns. The seasons change. Time is not bound in any framework, yet, still we have deep gratitude to our ancestors who framed time in days, months, and years so that, now, we have an opportunity at the end of each year to look back: at the things that we have done or have not yet done, at the streams of mind, body and events that have shaped our being and our relationships.
Please join us live stream or in person as we welcome in the New Year.
