How do we find the wisdom to envision a new world and the courage to fight for it? How do we survive seemingly apocalyptic times? In a world on fire, how do we find love and joy? We are not the first to ask these questions—in fact, seeking answers to them forged one of the world's great wisdom traditions. In a time riven by caste, conquest, and cruelty, Sikhs blazed the path of the sage warrior.

How do we love in a time of rage? How do we fix a broken world while not breaking ourselves? Valarie Kaur - renowned Sikh activist, filmmaker, and civil rights lawyer - describes revolutionary love as the call of our time, a radical, joyful practice that extends in three directions: to others, to our opponents, and to ourselves. It enjoins us to see no stranger but instead look at others and say: You are part of me I do not yet know. Starting from that place of wonder, the world begins to change.

In these sessions, you will explore the 10 core practices of Revolutionary Love - how to reclaim wonder, be brave with your grief, harness your rage, reimagine solutions, embrace joy, and more. Drawing on wisdom learned on the front lines of social justice movements and research in religion, law, ethics, and science, Kaur’s new framework has been called a moral compass for our time.
