Takoma Park Meditates with Gurudev

December 21 • 9:30–11:30 AM • Busboys and Poets, Takoma

Takoma Park is coming together for something truly special.

Join your neighbors and friends for Takoma Park Meditates with Gurudev, a community gathering that connects our values-driven corner of the world with a historic global meditation led by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the foremost voices for peace and human upliftment.

On this morning, Busboys and Poets — a beloved home for art, activism, and community — becomes a local hub in a worldwide event as millions across the planet pause together to breathe, reflect, and meditate. Guided live by Gurudev, this experience invites you to step into a moment of profound stillness, unity, and collective intention.

Rooted in the spirit of Takoma Park — cooperative, conscious, creative — this gathering celebrates the idea that peace is not passive. It is something we choose, cultivate, and share. Whether you’re a long-time meditator or simply curious, this event offers a rare opportunity to recharge personally while contributing to a global wave of harmony.

Morning highlights include:

• A welcoming community circle that reflects the values of Takoma Park
• Gentle breathwork to settle the mind and open the heart
• A live global meditation with Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
• Space for connection, reflection, and grounding before the holiday season
• Participation in a worldwide moment of peace with millions of fellow humans

This is a free community offering open to all — activists, artists, students, parents, healers, dreamers, skeptics, longtime meditators, and absolute beginners.
No experience is needed; your presence is enough.

Let’s show the world the power of a community that believes in peace, sustainability, cooperation, and collective wellbeing.
On December 21st, Takoma Park meditates — and the world meditates with us.
