[Vegan dinner + talk] Fit body, Empty Soul: the Wellness Illusion

🥣 [The Wellness Illusion] Fit body, Empty Soul: Upgrading Your Spiritual Digestion 📅 Thursday, July 30 📍Self Discovery Center, 1315 South Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA - 30306 🚗 Free street/venue parking Have you ever eaten a perfectly clean, vibrant, plant-based meal, checked off all your health goals for the day, and still felt a deep, nagging sense of spiritual emptiness inside? You are not alone. It is the ultimate modern paradox: we are hyper-focused on what we put into our bodies, yet our consciousness remains starving. A good diet nourishes the physical frame, but it cannot feed the nonmaterial soul. Join us for a special, eye-opening evening as we step past the dinner plate to address our deepest internal hunger. We are hosting world-traveling author, educator, and Yale University graduate turned Bhakti-yoga monk, Devamrita Swami, for an open conversation on breaking the cycle of "unnatural happiness" and truly upgrading our spiritual digestion. Whether you are a seasoned meditator or just an entirely curious first-timer, this night is designed to be a warm, low-pressure space to connect, eat well, and recharge your spirit. ⏰ Schedule 6:30 PM – 7:00 PM | 🧘 Immersive Mantra Music (Kirtan) Unwind from the day with a deeply relaxing, acoustic mantra meditation experience to quiet the mind and open the heart with Vedaji. * 7:00 PM – 7:45 PM | 🗣️ Wisdom Talk with Devamrita Swami An interactive dive into the yoga science of lasting inner contentment and navigating modern internal stress. * 7:45 PM – 8:00 PM | ❓ Open Q&A & Hangout Bring your toughest questions about life, purpose, karma, and consciousness. * 8:00 PM – 8:30 PM | 🥗 Plant-Based Social & Vegan Dinner Arrive, relax, and break bread with local Atlanta vegans and vegetarians.
