Calm amid disquiet, rage

Calm amid disquiet, rage

If you had decided to join the throng to the beach or anywhere outside your home these vacation months and confront the kilometric traffic on the way, would you rant and post on social media how pissed off you are?

Or would you accept the challenge no matter how long and divert your thoughts to more productive matters?

The times are on the edge of so many possibilities and you can choose to go into collapse or renewal, crises or opportunities.

Whatever may be happening around that causes anxiety, there is room for calm, reflective responses, according to Brahma Kumaris (BK) Philippines, which is organizing a program on Thursday, April 20, at OnStage Theater, Greenbelt 1 in Makati City.

Titled “Be Still, My Heart,” the program, the first time to be held in three years due to the pandemic, invites the public to “take a step back, watch the scene without panic or prejudice, and listen to one’s heart.”

“The heart, when still, is the compass that points to unerring, life-changing decisions,” an invitation from the Brahma Kumaris says.

To guide the audience to this wisdom will be Charlie Hogg, a meditator for more than 40 years.

Hogg, the Chief Executive and Chairman of the Board of Brahma Kumaris Australia, has visited more than 80 countries to speak in international conferences and public programs. He shares his experiences of applying spirituality in daily life.

“Meditation is a decision to live a life of peace,” Hogg says. “There has never been a more important time to understand this,” he added.

“Be Still, My Heart” will be held at 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 20 at OnStage Theater, Greenbelt 1, 2/F, Paseo De Roxas, Makati City.
