Creative and Performance Arts: For Dynamic Youth Cultivation and Societal Relevance
Do your ISKCON youth find temple events tedious and un-engaging, feel insecure in their devotional identity and lack in nourishing friendships?
Creative and performance arts can help them
How can devotional arts help us be accessible to seekers and conscious artists? Can they provide us with platforms to showcase our philosophy in the secular world and remain relevant? How can we maintain purity whilst doing so?
This seminar will give examples and formulas of how creative and performance arts can help us cultivate devotee youth and access the secular community in a vibrant, non-invasive and relevant way.
