On the eve of the September 11th anniversary, PSI hosted a powerful evening of contemplative dialogue and spiritual solidarity. Peace in Dialogue: Dharma Across Traditions brought together three extraordinary teachers—Khentrul Rinpoche (Vajrayāna Buddhism), Swami Sarvapriyananda (Advaita Vedānta), and Ācārya Sthaneshwar Timalsina (Tantric Śaivism)—to reflect on how their traditions and personal journeys have crossed spiritual, cultural, and philosophical boundaries in pursuit of peace and wisdom.
Rooted in ancient lineages yet deeply responsive to the present moment, these teachers shared stories and insights that illuminate a path forward—one that honors difference without division and upholds authenticity without exclusion. This live dialogue offered a rare window into the transformative power of interfaith engagement, contemplative wisdom, and shared inquiry.
The event was hosted by the Psychotherapy & Spirituality Institute in partnership with St. John’s in the Village and Dzokden, with support from the broader interfaith and spiritual community.
