TEACHING
"It has become clear to me that what I’m actually teaching, regardless of the topic or subject matter, is life. I’m teaching human beings how to fearlessly identify, use and serve the world with their gifts and talents. I am teaching them the very skills that we know will be demanded of humanity in the 21st century.” - Dr. Amma
