“The Lamp and the Arrow” by Aaron Brown

What: On a battlefield of duty and doubt, Arjuna, hero of the Bhagavad Gita, receives a vision of the divine and learns to act not from fear, but from devotion.

Join to reflect on what it means to follow a sacred calling, to align purpose with compassion, and to live a life shaped not by obligation, but by inspired intention. Music by Micha Schoepe and Paul Dankers.

When: 10 a.m. to noon, Sunday, June 15
