Description

How to live as a pilgrim, embracing elegant simplicity to find fellowship with all life.In this episode Amisha sits down with Satish Kumar - co-founder of Schumacher College, editor of Resurgence magazine and a global activist.They discuss his childhood as a Jain monk, the encounter with death which began his spiritual education, and why he walked out of monastic life - walking 8000 miles from the birthplace of Ghandi to four nuclear capitals of the world.Satish explores the Jain philosophy of nonviolence and gives advice on how to live life as a pilgrim rather than a commuter - explaining why we would benefit from all working only 3 days a week."Become the CEO of your own life... Earn less money, have more time. Consume less, buy less, have less possessions. Have good food... You cannot have a happy life on a bad diet. Everything else simple. Elegant simplicity." - Satish Kumar
