PRESS
RELEASE AND INVITATION
Stockholm May 28th 2003
Swedes arrange Spiritual
Festival in India
Spiritual
wisdom with roots in ancient cultures and lectures in related sciences
are the basis of The Experience Festival taking place in India in August
2003. A Swedish project group stand behind this initiative. The festival
is the launching point for the World University of Consciousness, which
is a educational and scientific institution dedicated to the rediscovery,
preservation and teaching of wisdom and sciences developed by ancient cultures
from around the world.
During seven festival days, 400 participants
from all over the world, will be presented to an extensive program. They
can find not only workshops about the Indian health system of Ayurveda
but also the Mayan Calendar from Central America, Sufism and the old Indian
philosophy of Vaastu (the Indian Feng Shui), were you learn how to plan
the house and garden. Other subjects in the workshops are Indian dance,
Yoga, the Kabbalah, Gregorian chants, Nostradamus teachings of Astrology,
Native American spirituality, Vedic Art, and much more.
– Today there is a vast interest in these
ancient traditions among lots of people. Our aim is to make the festival
and the university a basis for a new global network of people who want
to support personal growth as well as solidarity with developing countries,
says Jonas Lindqvist at Arkacia. He is one of the members of the Swedish
project group who stand behind this interfaith and cross-cultural initiative.
The Experience Festival is located to a
beautiful area close to the beautiful national park Sathyavedu. Sathyavedu
is a very special jungle with creeks, mountains and a large variety of
trees, flowers and animals. This area offer unique possibilities
for trekking and is also known for having attracted many saints and sages
for thousands of years.
The Experience Festival and the World University
of Consciousness are arranged in collaboration with the Golden Age Foundation,
a non-profit organisation working for the betterment of mankind. The World
University offer courses immediately after the festival in August.
