Satish Kumar guest talk at Isbourne

Earth Pilgrim Satish Kumar will be discussing his remarkable life story during this Isbourne Holistic Centre guest speaker talk, with the chance to get books by the author signed too.

Diverse Cheltenham venue The Isbourne Holistic Centre will be hosting what is expected to be a particularly popular guest speaker talk this Monday 19 March 2012, when ‘Earth Pilgrim’ Satish Kumar reveals his remarkable life story.

When he was just nine years old, Satish is said to have renounced the world and joined the brotherhood of Jain monks. Then, at the age of eighteen, he left the monastic order and became a campaigner for land reform – ‘working to turn Gandhi’s vision of a peaceful world into reality’.

During the forthcoming talk, The Isbourne Holistic Centre audience can expect to hear about Satish’s fascinating life experiences and pilgrimages, and how he approaches nature as a pilgrim for the renewal of spirit.

As fans of the inspirational speaker will know, Satish has been the editor of Resurgence magazine since 1973, which under his editorship has become – according to The Guardian – ‘the spiritual and artistic flagship of the green movement’.

While in 2008, Satish presented a highly acclaimed BBC Natural World documentary Earth Pilgrim that explored Eastern philosophy across the Western landscape of Dartmoor.

He is also the author of several popular books, and Isbourne visitors will have the chance to get theirs signed and meet Satish in person at this evening event.
