Social Wellbeing
Blue Lotus Foundation specifically addresses social wellbeing by carrying out social projects that provide support and assistance for the elderly, improved quality of life for cancer patients, that reach out to the prison community, and that provide intervention in the education of children and adolescents, and in 2012 the Foundation plans on introducing a Thanatology project, to accompany people through the process of death. Many of these projects work on a volunteer basis, giving people the opportunity to give back to the community.
The Foundation, is a volunteer organization, belonging to the Federation of volunteer organizations in Catalonia.
Know thyself
Discover peace and tranquility when living within, and your emotions, thoughts and physical body are in balance. When the water is calm we can see the background, the same way, when we have peace and tranquility we discover who we really are.
Blue Lotus Foundation offers the opportunity to work on human development and social welfare through philosophy and meditation, through the visions of S. Aurobindo and R. Maharshi, Aristotle, Plotinus, Schelling F.W.J, J. Gebser, R. Steiner, M. Slote, J. Cottingham, Damien Keown, and C. Jung, among others. This work can be carried out by private or weekly group lessons and through workshops and retreats.
Integral Yoga
Hatha yoga classes at Blue Lotus Foundation have a meditative flow, with a profound focus on the breath, and are physically challenging in order to promote strength and flexibility. Classes are either in groups or private for those who want a more personalized attention, helping us to improve ourselves in the process of development. It is important, however, that we are able to integrate the physical practice with an even more introspective one, which can be done through other branches of Integral Yoga and philosophy that the Foundation offers.
Some make use of these classes to retrieve their physical strength to prepare for meditation or to find a relaxed state, while others may utilize these classes as therapy for recovery. That is why the Foundation offers classes at different levels and different types of thinking to accommodate the different needs of each person.
La nostra filosofia
May this life be a new opportunity for us to reach out to each other, to have more tolerance, to open our hearts, to be more humble, to walk without fear, to love ourselves, to forgive, to not judge, to have more patience, to share a common ground, to make a difference, to open our eyes to the miracles that happen every day, to take responsibility for our own fears, to pave our road from ignorance to a greater consciousness, to seek a life with greater fulfillment, to not fall in the face of catastrophe, to find the innocence that we all have inside, to never lose our vision, and to live in the present, because LIFE IS JOY.
