As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment, the fate of Earth and existence has never been more uncertain. Written by Marvel Studios

Saturday December 22nd 2018
From 4:00 - 6:00 pm
at
61 Prospect Ave. 4th Floor

This is a life-nurturing gathering, in which you would experience real-life stories of happiness, interconnections, kindness, love and humor, around the theme of gratefulness.

We'll be guided by Vibra, a beautiful soul who's here from India, where she nurtures human potential and helps people and organizations connect with their core as the Initiator of Muskaan and Genuine Contact Space.  You can find more about her work and being at:  www.gcspace.org

Would you like to give yourself this deeply nourishing holiday gift?  Vibha's gratitude joyshops are offered in the 'currency of trust', i.e., there is no price tag. Just offer what your heart tells you, and that will be used for Muskaan's philanthropic activities.

Vishnu's Couch Yoga Studio presents
Group Meditation and Satsang Retreat
Sunday, December 23rd
From 1:00 - 6:00pm
at
61 Prospect Ave. 4th Floor
Binghamton, NY 13901

Meditation is the most effective means for significant beneficial change in our lives and in the world, simply because it facilitates access to the deeper layers of our true Self--the source of our being.  And since practicing in groups significantly increases the effects, please take advantage of this opportunity to dive deeper and marinate longer in the blissful silence of meditation.

The day will consist mostly of sitting meditation punctuated by: 
walking meditation, relaxation, sound meditation, pranayama, gentle asanas, Satsang, and a light vegan Soup-du-jour.  

Join-in at any time;
 stay for as long as you would like and
 invite your friends along; the more the merrier!

Donations Welcomed

-----------Other Local Events----------



Raja Yoga and Satsang

Raja Yoga is the royal yoga that brings the nature of our True Self to our awareness.  This awareness cannot be gained through perception or intellectual knowledge, it can only be known through cognition, like the knowledge that I am, that I exist, it needs no proof, but without this knowing, the experience remains limited and misunderstood.  Come join us as we explore our True Self through:  
Silence, Meditation, Breathing, and gentle relaxing Postures.

at the Indian Cultural Center (ICC) building
1595 Route 26, Vestal NY

Sundays  8:30-10:00am
