An Evening of Transformation with Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati & Eddie Stern
Join us for an extraordinary evening of meditation, conversation, and deep wisdom as Rishikesh-based spiritual leader Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati joins world renowned yoga expert Eddie Stern to explore the pivotal role of spirituality and Indian Vedic wisdom in navigating the challenges of modern life.
Originally from Los Angeles and a graduate of Stanford University, Sadhviji has lived and taught at Parmarth Niketan Ashram in Rishikesh, on the sacred banks of the Ganga, in the lap of the Himalayas for nearly 30 years. As a spiritual teacher, bestselling author, and global speaker, she has guided countless seekers toward a life of peace, purpose, and awakening.
In celebration of the launch of Come Home to Yourself: Simple Answers to Life’s Essential Questions Sadhviji’s latest book, this special event will delve into how ancient yet timeless spiritual truths provide the guidance we need to move from stress and suffering to stillness and peace, and how we can align ourselves with the divine flow of the Universe.
Through an engaging discussion, Sadhviji and Eddie will illuminate how the teachings of yoga, meditation, and Vedic wisdom offer not just fleeting relief, but a permanent shift in how we experience ourselves and the world. How do we truly come home to ourselves in a world that constantly pulls us outward? How do we cultivate resilience, joy, and purpose in times of uncertainty? How do we find and live our deepest purpose? These are just some of the questions they will explore.
The evening will be interactive and immersive, featuring a guided meditation, engaging conversation, and the opportunity for participants to ask their own questions. Whether you are just beginning your spiritual journey or have been walking this path for years, this event promises to offer deep insights, transformative wisdom, and practical tools to integrate these teachings into daily life.
