Heartfulness eMagazine - July 2024

In this issue

Dear readers,
During June, Daaji 2024 was traveling through Europe and the US, and this catalyzed a number of high profile meetings and interviews. One of the highlights was the pre-launch of the exhibition of Master Yoga at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, leading up to International Day of Yoga on June 21, during which he was interviewed by Guila Clara Kessous, the UNESCO Art Ambassador, about the role of art in society. The interview is one of those highlights in this edition that can change the course of a person’s life.
Also, we hear from Daaji on how to reset our mental well-being and manage change. We hear from Pir Zia Inayat Khan on our invisible inner gardens, Barbara Sonvilla on resonance, Sofia Stril-Rever on conscience, IchakAdizes on collaborative leadership, and Muhammed Haniff Abdul Razak on a real-life city of peace and harmony.
Professor Paul Wolpe focuses on ethics, Professor Laura Otis on the literature that highlights the ethics of care in society, and Sravan Banda enlightens us about the benefits of an ancient health remedy. Thomas Mogensen speaks about oneness, becoming, and naturalness, Leslie Blair shares a dream, and Sara Bubber tells our children another inspiring story and challenges them with some fun facts and riddles.
Happy reading,
The editors
