A One Day Workshop with Andrew Harvey | March 21, 2020

Andrew Harvey has spent 40 years devoting himself to the Rumi Renaissance and to Rumi as the prophet of love of the new universal mysticism. Nothing could ever express what he has been graced through him. And now, his work is focused on the other great universal mystical poet, Kabir the great poet of India, loved by Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs but whose vision of the One transcends all religion. It is as if Rumi flooded us with tender fire to prepare us to be burnt alive in the astringent flames of Kabir. Come join Andrew as he guides us to be burnt alive in love and resurrected in our essential divine nature.
