Calling all lovers of mystical poetry in the Wood River Valley.

Mystical poets of many of the world’s contemplative traditions are sources of tremendous wisdom and timeless offerings for the exploration of human potential. And many modern poets approach this same mystical place, often through their profound sharing of the way nature touches the soul of being human. Afterall, we are part of nature.

We will come together to listen to several mystical poet’s work selected by Cit Ananda to inspire self-reflection, journaling, and conversation. The intention is to cultivate a place for deep introspection, sacred conversation and heart-oriented community around myriad wisdom teachings. This is the first event in what we hope will become an on-going series of meet ups. There is no shortage of poets in the mystical tradition to inspire us, so come with your journal, (and maybe some pillows and blankets for comfort) your open heart and a desire to share the wisdom that runs through you.
