Weekend retreat with Satish Kumar
Soil. Soul. Society.
"Att stanna upp och genom reflektion och meditation bli mer varse mina egna tankar och känslor har varit oerhört kraftfullt för mig. Jag känner mig som en lite förhöjd version av mig själv."
Jonas Svanhed
Program description
Peace-pilgrim, life-long activist, and former monk, Satish Kumar has been inspiring global change for over 50 years. He undertook a pilgrimage for peace, walking for two years without money from India to America for the cause of nuclear disarmament. Now in his 80s, Satish has devoted his life to campaigning for ecological regeneration and social justice. Through his teachings, Satish passionately shares visions of the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.
Satish Kumar has been inspiring global change for over 50 years. Aged 9, Satish renounced the world and became a wandering Jain monk. Inspired by Gandhi, he decided at 18 that he could achieve more back in the world, campaigning to turn Gandhi’s vision of a peaceful future into reality. In his early 20s, Satish was inspired by the British peace activist, Bertrand Russell who was arrested aged 89 at an anti-nuclear demonstration. This prompted Satish’s peace pilgrimage from India to Moscow, London, Paris and America. Walking with no money and depending on the kindness and hospitality of strangers, Satish delivered a humble packet of 'peace tea' to the leaders of the four capitals of the nuclear world. Now in his 80s, he has devoted his life to campaigning for ecological regeneration, social justice and spiritual fulfilment.
A world-renown author and international speaker, Satish founded The Resurgence Trust, an educational charity that seeks to inform and inspire a just future for all. He was the Editor of the charity’s change-making magazine, Resurgence & Ecologist, for over 40 years, making him the UK's longest-serving editor of the same magazine. He continues to serve this publication as Editor Emeritus and by writing for each and every trailblazing issue.
Satish continues to teach, run workshops and write about reverential ecology, holistic education and voluntary simplicity and is a much sought-after international speaker and author.
About Satish Kumar
Soil, Soul, Society: A new trinity for our time.
All great movements encapsulate their vision in three words, just as the French revolution summarised their mission in three words – Egalite, Liberte, Fraternite. For the age of ecology, we need a new trinity. Satish Kumar has summarised that new trinity in three words – Soil, Soul, Society. Caring for nature, caring for the soul and caring for society are three dimensions of one single vision for the future.
During this weekend retreat, Satish will present the new trinity for our age of sustainability. One that shares the knowledge that we ourselves are very much part of nature; that what we do to nature we in fact do to ourselves; and that the earth is soulful. We are members of a one-earth society, and caring for the earth and soul is interrelated.
Satish will remind us that to bring about change in the world, we must embody the change we wish to see. We can all be leaders and can create change in our structures and mindsets for lasting peace and a sustainable culture and society.

"En fantastisk upplevelse! Carl står stadigt i sina kunskaper och har många kreativa verktyg och övningar som för mig möjliggjorde både en inre resa och en tillsammans med gruppen. Ingen lämnade kursen oberörd."
Sara Persson
”Carls genuina vilja att skapa förändring i mig som individ och i förlängningen världen gör effekten mer genomgripande än i något annat program jag har deltagit i. Deltagarna lämnar inte bara med ny kunskap och genomgripande erfarenhet utan också med ny kraft och förmåga att ge mer i en alltmer komplex vardag med utmaningar vi ännu inte vet svaret på.”
Charlotta Holm Klinth
"Retreaten var djupt inspirerande och transformerande. Jag fascineras enormt av Carl Lindeborg, hans visdom, världsbild och verktyg till förändring. Att vi alla behöver rusta oss för framtiden och vara goda förebilder. Jag rekommenderar varmt denna retreat till alla som vill accelerera sin vuxenutveckling!"
