Workshop | Introduction to Taoist Inner Alchemy


Taoist Inner Alchemy views the physical body as a kind of a laboratory in which our inner energies, the “Three Treasures” of jing (original reproductive energy), chi (natural energy), and shen (spiritual energy), can be gathered, cultivated and refined to generate greater vitality, health, happiness and, ultimately, for the assiduous practitioner, the “return to the Tao” (or immortality) through the birth of the “immortal child within.” In this class you will be introduced to some of the foundational practices of Taoist Inner Alchemy, including: “Opening the Microcosmic Orbit,” a sitting meditation that helps us enhance and balance energy flow in the body’s main energetic pathway; standing qigong grounding and rooting practices that strengthen the muscular/skeletal structure and provide a strong supportive connection to the earth; and the melting of blocked sexual energy for rejuvenation and to begin the “rebirth” process.

Concert | Kirtan Music


Devadas has released two cds, "Ocean - Songs for Amma" and "Shine Shine On" and is currently recording and singing anywhere and everywhere they'll have him. A Bhajan is any type of Indian devotional song. It has no fixed form: it may be as simple as a mantra or kirtan or as sophisticated as the dhrupad or kriti with music based on classical ragas and talas. It is normally lyrical, expressing love for the Divine. The name, a cognate of bhakti, meaning religious devotion, suggests its importance to the bhakti movement.

Theater | Neverland Industries, a New Play by Daniel Welser Carroll


Retiring CEO Barry "Little Bill" Williams inexplicably thrusts one of his firm's junior copywriters, Michael Davies, into the spotlight during a company retreat on Martha's Vineyard. Careers and reputations are secretly at stake at this casually decadent business summit, where all of that hidden information is ritualistically passed from the vengeful CEO into dangerous hands that tremble from amibition. What follows is a psychological battle of wits between two similar men at vastly different points in their lives set in a fantastical backdrop of corporate greed and white-collar evil that occurs in plain sight. A student production.
