Join us for a peaceful and uplifting Sunday afternoon at the Zurich Krishna Temple’s traditional Sunday Feast 🌸 Every Sunday, the temple hosts a vibrant cultural and spiritual gathering featuring mantra meditation, devotional music, wisdom talks, and a generous vegetarian/vegan feast. It’s a beautiful opportunity to experience Bhakti-yoga culture, connect with like-minded people, and enjoy a warm community atmosphere. Our Plan We’ll meet at St. Gallen train station at 11.0am and leave together by taking the 11.07am Train to Zurich. From Zurich station, we’ll walk as a group to the temple but you can also take public transport if you prefer that and then we can rejoin at the temple. They also serve lunch for everyone from 1-2pm which we plan to join as well. About the Sunday Feast The program typically includes: • Mantra singing & bhajans (devotional music) • Spiritual lecture & discussion • Traditional temple ceremony • Guided meditation • Large vegetarian/vegan buffet feast The festival begins at the temple from 3:00 PM and continues into the evening. 📍 Location: Krishna Temple Zurich Bergstrasse 54, 8032 Zürich Who should come? Everyone is welcome (irrespective of religious/spiritual background) — whether you’re curious about Bhakti yoga philosophy or simply want to enjoy meaningful community time and great food. Disclaimer This Meetup is a casual group visit. We are not the organisers of the Sunday Feast — the event itself is hosted by the Zurich Krishna Temple.

Der Decoden Workshop bietet dir die Möglichkeit, in eine verspielte und kreative Welt einzutauchen und deine eigenen Decoden-Charms und Accessoires zu gestalten. Decoden ist eine dekorative Technik, bei der mit einer cremigen Leimmasse, Farben und süßen Charms gearbeitet wird. Dabei entstehen einzigartige Designs, die sowohl kreativ als auch individuell sind. Dieser Workshop eignet sich perfekt für alle, die etwas Neues ausprobieren und mit wenig Aufwand tolle Ergebnisse erzielen möchten. Im Decoden Workshop kannst du verschiedene Gegenstände nach deinem eigenen Stil gestalten. Zur Auswahl Bilderrahmen Etuis Handspiegel & Tischspiegel Schmuckkästchen Haarklammer Du entscheidest selbst, welches Objekt du dekorieren möchtest und wie verspielt, farbenfroh oder minimalistisch dein Design ausfallen soll. Jedes Werk ist ein Unikat und spiegelt deine persönliche Kreativität wider. Pro Gegenstand benötigst du etwa 15 bis 30 Minuten, je nach Detailgrad und Design. Dadurch eignet sich der Workshop sowohl für kurze kreative Pausen als auch für längere Bastelzeiten. Du kannst auch mehrere Objekte nacheinander gestalten, wenn du Lust hast, verschiedene Designs auszuprobieren. Der Preis startet ab 20 CHF pro Gegenstand. Im Preis enthalten sind eine Farbe und 20 Charms. Alle Materialien stehen für dich bereit, sodass du nichts mitbringen musst. Du kannst direkt loslegen und dich ganz auf das kreative Arbeiten konzentrieren. Wenn du zusätzliche Farben oder Charms verwenden möchtest, kannst du diese flexibel ergänzen. Auch Anfänger\*innen sind herzlich willkommen. Du brauchst keinerlei Vorkenntnisse, um am Decoden Workshop teilzunehmen. Ich erkläre dir Schritt für Schritt, wie die Technik funktioniert, wie du den Leim richtig aufträgst und wie du deine Charms platzierst, damit dein Design harmonisch wirkt. Während des gesamten Workshops stehe ich dir mit Tipps und Unterstützung zur Seite. Wichtig zu beachten ist die Trockenzeit: Der verwendete Leim benötigt etwa zwei Stunden, um stabil zu trocknen, und über Nacht, um vollständig auszuhärten. Du hast daher zwei Möglichkeiten: Du kannst dein Werk gerne bei mir lassen und es zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt abholen, sobald es komplett getrocknet ist. Alternativ kannst du dein Objekt vorsichtig mit nach Hause nehmen und dort weiter trocknen lassen.
