Karma, Free will & Astrology

We are excited to host Bhanu Swami, a traveling monk, scholar and author, for the first time atThe Loft. He will be discussing the juicy topic of karma. Some people suffer in this lifetime; sometimes they lose money, sometimes they get sick, sometimes they have accidents or some other catastrophe in life and then they wonder: “What caused this? I didn’t do anything wrong.”

If everything is determined by our previous acts, then what free will do we have now? We do have karma, but we do have free will as well. By the choices we make, we can improve both our present and our future.

Bring your curiosity along and ofcourse your appetite for a delicious, all you can eat feast :)
