16 November, 2014: Sadhvi Bhagawatiji Speaks On “Spirituality in the age of Smartphones, sex and status updates” at Speaking Tree’s Akasha 2014

November 16, 2014

On November 16th, Sadhvi Bhagawatiji, President of Divine Shakti Foundation, gave a talk at opening session of Speaking Tree’s Akasha 2014, a conference on spirituality, wellness and well-being,  entitled “Spirituality in the Age of Smartphones, Sex and Status Updates.”

In her talk, Bhagawatiji discussed everything from the current obsession with taking selfies, which she explained was a sign of our are craving to exist, to sex and how it should not be mixed with spirituality (as we don’t think about God while having sex, we should not be thinking about sex while engaged in any type of spiritual activity!).  Sadhviji emphasized the importance of a spiritual practice, and how when we are practicing – whether it be doing yoga, meditating, or anything else – we should take the time to really do those things, not wondering what our next status update should be.

Those who had gathered were truly inspired and touched by Sadhvi Bhagawatiji’s talk.
