‘The Timeless Wisdom’...monthly Study Days
led by
Colum Hayward

Sundays: 8th Feb, 8th March, 17th May, 14th June, 12th July, 13th Sept, 11th Oct. 11.00am to 4.00pm

What’s at the heart of what we so easily call ‘the Ancient Wisdom’ or ‘the Timeless Wisdom’? How different is it from the philosophy humankind has worked out for itself more recently? What is the basis of our ‘Wisdom School’?

In this monthly study class, join Colum Hayward in working out what’s ‘ancient’, what’s ‘new’ and what’s ‘right’! You’ll be doing some of the research yourself, but under Colum’s practised guidance.

The class is open to everyone, though preference will be given to members if there are too many applicants.

Cost £20 per day; the cost is designed to make these days accessible to all, and invite participation in the Wisdom School.

Please email the for details or to book.


‘A London Lodge Celebration’

Sunday 22nd March 3.00pm to 7.30pm

Marking both its own 68th Anniversary and the spring equinox, the London Lodge will be open house for this celebratory afternoon with brief talks, entertainment, refreshments and a special concluding service at 6.00 pm.

Entry free, advance booking advised.

Please email the for details or to book.


'An Inspirational Evening’ with Satish Kumar and Gilles Petit

Tuesday 31st March at 6.30pm

: For the first time we welcome Satish Kumar (editor of Resurgence and inspirational speaker) to the London Lodge to give a talk on the pressing issues affecting us today and to share with us aspects of his life as a monk, a peacemaker, ecologist author and social reformer. Satish says ‘To be an Earth Pilgrim is to revere nature as our sacred home and see all life as a sacred journey to become at one with ourselves with others and with nature’

Before the talk, Gilles Petit, well known at the London Lodge as singer, teacher and musician, will captivate us all with a personal performance. Gilles aims to bring the soul of Indian Raga into the heart of western searching and creativity through ‘cosmic theatre’ and improvisation with the Sa Re Ga.

He says ‘Our capacity to move and sound close to the ground slowly and with a sense of mindfulness: all these give the voice its earthly roots and spatial capacity’.

The cost of this exceptional evening is £10. We expect the London Lodge to be full for this occasion; pre-booking is strongly advised.

Please email the for details or to book.


‘Astrology Without Tears’
a day with
Simon Bentley

Saturday 4th April 10.00am to 4.00pm

We shall be approaching the fundamental principles of astrology in as user-friendly a way as possible, demonstrating that a real feeling for the planets and stars does not have to involve complicated study and intellectual toil!

Cost for day £20, concessions £15. Light refreshments will be provided, please bring a vegetarian packed lunch.

Please email the for details or to book.


‘Attunement Through Sacred Dance’
a day of Paneurhythmy with
Morelle Forster

10th May 10.30 am to 4.30 pm

Paneurhythmy is a form of sacred dance originally developed by the deeply respected Bulgarian spiritual teacher Peter Deunov. He wrote ‘Combined with music these movements give one the opportunity to receive cosmic energy to spread it harmoniously within oneself and to exchange it with other people’.

Falling within the Creative Arts area of the Wisdom School, this day is divided into morning (10.30 am to 1.00 pm) and afternoon (2.00 pm to 4.30 pm) sessions. The morning devoted to teaching movement and the afternoon to showing a DVD, further work and discussion.

Cost of day £20 (or £10 for morning or afternoon only). A simple Bulgarian lunch will be provided (£5.00, pre-bookable) or bring a vegetarian packed lunch.

Please email the for details or to book.


‘The Creative Power of Sound’ Workshop
led by
Anna Hayward

Understand more of the creative power within yourself, as well as the ‘harmony of the spheres’, and how to harness it and channel it through sound. No one is individually put on the spot; an environment of lightheartedness and exploration is created. If you long to be able to express your true self better, then maybe this is for you.

Come and help earth our Wisdom School through the power of the spoken and sung word!

Cost for day £20, concessions £15. Light refreshments will be provided, please bring a vegetarian packed lunch.

What Happens?
a workshop with
Anna Hayward

Sunday 1st November 11.00am to 5.00pm

This is a day for looking at the still pioneering, unconditionally loving way in which White Eagle guides us towards understanding what happens in ourselves and in others, particularly when things seem to go wrong.

The day is conducted with as much safety as can be provided. All processes and experiences are carried out inwardly or confidentially, with no need to share unless you wish; thus each one can approach the material of the day from where they uniquely are. Respect is the key note we seek to sound together!

Cost for day £20, concessions £15. Light refreshments will be provided, please bring a vegetarian packed lunch.

Please email the for details or to book.
