Radical Love with Satish Kumar

7th April 2025 - 10th April 2025

Facilitator: Satish Kumar

Join Satish Kumar for a transformative weekend journey, exploring the essence of love in all areas of life. Discover how love, like gravity, holds together our relationships and grounds our actions. Through guided discussions, meditations, and Qi Gong with June Mitchell, this course invites you to cultivate self-love, compassion for others, and a deep connection to nature.

Together, we’ll ask: How can love inspire our politics, business, science and all the other activities in life? Guided by Satish’s philosophy of Radical Love and June’s mindfulness practices, you’ll leave with insights and tools to live with purpose and presence. On this weekend participants will also spend time in the tranquil surroundings of Hawkwood and discover how radical love can bring joy in life.

Event time: 7th April 2025 4:00pm - 10th April 2025 10:00am

More about Radical Love with Satish Kumar

Love is the ground of all virtues. Truth, goodness and beauty emerge out of love. Love of oneself, love of all people and love of Nature can liberate us from all the problems of life. Love First!

In this course we will seek to answer this all important question: How can politics, business, science and all the other activities of life be grounded in love?

This coming year 2025, Schumacher Wild and Hawkwood Centre for Future Thinking, are forming a unique partnership that will offer immersive programmes, which integrate Schumacher Wild’s deep ecological teachings and learning community, with Hawkwood’s focus on creativity and conscious living. By merging our unique strengths, this collaboration is designed to inspire change and to bring the relational and connected future we dream of into being. Through experiential pedagogy, our short courses will provide a deep dive into living systems, regenerative practices and the well-being of future generations. We hope you can join us!
