Through 8 fortnight process (4 months), Earth Shastra’s learning process intends to seed the core ideas of Earth Shastra in more alumni of Youth Alliance who will go on to be the team for putting together ES 4.0 and future editions.

Actually this isn’t about EarthShastra the program - its about getting on a collective enquiry on how life flows through systems of today and the audacious act of imagining how those systems could be more life-like. The exercise is to look at the world through each of our lives. It's also about deepening what being human means for each of us.

What does it take to be on this journey?
The frequency is based on the moon cycle. Each moon cycle, we pick up a theme that engages our head, heart and hands.

  • Every new moon and full moon we come together for fortnightly Calls on Zoom/ Hangouts - the idea would be

    • to connect with each other through the theme, learn from each others’ reflections and appreciate each others’ sense.
    • to hold the question on the theme - dig deeper to stumble upon insights
    • to have concrete ways to become ready having participants be part of that enquiry during EarthShastra 4.0

  • Time and sincere effort - the process will become rich if each one of us invest in it with time and effort. Per fortnight you will need to give atleast 10 hours, in the following way:
    • 2.5 hours for the call (the call will be 2 hours long - 15 mins both sides we recommend for zoning in and zoning out of the call)
    • 1.5 hours of reflection from the heart
    • 4 hours for learning
    • 2 hours of conversation with a mentor (most themes)

  • Trust the process - the process is evolving with you.

What got created last year?

ES Learning Process

The friendships and relationships that got created led to many beautiful creations, even after ES. Some of them are regular yoga classes over zoom during the lockdown, YA webinars on life giving skills, cross learning and exchange of skills, and deep deep personal bonds.

We hope this Learning Process 2020 will not only bring us all together to learn but also give us a chance to know each other a little better.

Welcome, to magic-making and joy of togetherness. We will do our best to sustain it over four months and through virtual mediums. Are you game?
