Sadhviji Gives Keynote Speech at Global Wellness Summit
In the first week of November, Sadhvi Bhagawatiji gave the keynote address and led a sacred yagna (fire ceremony) at the Global Wellness Summit in Tel Aviv, Israel.
On the opening night of the Summit she led a powerful fire ceremony on the large terrace of the Hilton Hotel, which overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. She shared the meaning of the sacred yagna ceremony and then led all the participants in a meditation about letting go of whatever it is that is holding them back – anger, grudges, fears, false identities, expectations, attachments, dramas, etc. Then, to the beautiful sound of Vedic mantras being chanted by Pujya Swamiji, she led the participants in placing their offerings into the fire.
The following day, Sadhviji gave a powerful keynote address on the critical role of spirituality in wellness. She emphasized that it is the mind, the thoughts, the beliefs that determine and create so much of our experience of our own health or illness, and she shared tools for everyone to optimize their mindset for greater wellness.
The internationally renowned Global Wellness Summit takes place in a different major city around the globe each year. In 2013 it took place in Delhi and was graced by the presence of HH the Dalai Lama as well as Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji and Pujya Sadhviji.
