Dear friends, we are delighted to announce that InterIFAST is starting a series of events under the title “From Lust to Love”. Presented by Vrajalila, the Director of InterIFAST, this special series events will explore how as a culture we have dedicated ourselves to satisfying our lust rather than expressing our love, the consequences of these choices, and offer solutions on how to transform lust into love and live based on the highest truth of divine love.

“Famine, disease, terrorism, war, murder, suicide, storms floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, toxic rivers, poisoned flood, dying trees – this planet is presenting us with mumerous symptoms of serious imbalance.
Yet despite the widespread physical suffering throughout the world today, ultimately the difficulties confronting us are not material, but spiritual. These problems reflect our failure to fulfill our deepest longings to love and be loved, and any solution will require more than just a sophisticated technological effort.
We may have made great scientific progress, but as a culture we still have little understanding of love and even less appreciation for the spiritual dimensions of life.
The strive and destruction that surround us point to an urgent need to remedy this situation. We must learn how to love ourselves, and also how to love our home planet and the other living beings who reside here with us.”
