Hesse & Gibran

This year 2007 marks the 125th anniversary of Gibran Kahlil Gibran, a Lebanese-American poet and visual artist who many associate with enlightenment, and the 130th anniversary of Hermann Hesse, a German and Swiss novelist and thinker who became a great favorite of colleage students in the 1960's. The universal appeal of both Gibran and Hesse is very clear in their work, and more particularly in Hesse's novel "Siddhartha" and in Gibran's "The Prophet" which has great appeal to young people looking for the answers to questions.

Remember, Satsang is always a place of exploration and truth!
