The Art of Caring for Vaisnavas

Toronto’s Vaisnava Care Team present to you a two-day online seminar!

Come learn the art of caring for devotees faced with: an acute illness, a long-term chronic illness or those in need of end-of-life care. These sessions will be facilitated by none other than Sangita devi dasi whose seminars from some years ago were well attended and appreciated. We were hoping to have an in-person deep-dive on this very important topic but due to the lockdown, we are going to hear from her virtually.

The details for this are as follows- 

Days? Aug 15 and 16 (Sat-Sun) 

Timings? 9:30AM-1:30 PM EDT

Student workbook will be sent to registered participants only. Please RSVP by sending an email to Lalithapriya devi dasi at lalitha_gs@yahoo.com

Sangita devi dasi (Susan Pattinson, RN, Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse) has been a practitioner of the bhakti tradition for close to five decades. In 2000, she co-founded the non-profit organization Vaishnavas C.A.R.E. (Counselling, Assistance, Resource, and Education for the terminally ill and Their Family). She has written seven articles on hospice care that were published in various nursing journals and is the author of the book, “The Final Journey–Complete Hospice Care for Departing Vaishnavas”, a hands-on text on the care of terminally ill loved ones. For fifteen years she has travelled throughout North America and India giving hospice seminars and workshops and is acknowledged as being the international pioneer for end-of-life care in the ISKCON Krishna Consciousness movement.
