The Brahma Kumaris, or the BK's as they call themselves sometimes, are a spiritual group located throughout the world. I had the extreme pleasure of representing the Emergent Media Center with a small group of students at their Peace Village in the Catskills of New York state to brainstorm game ideas to help teach young people about their Spotlight Values. I had an incredible time.
Each morning started with a half an hour meditation; all of our meals were vegetarian (and delicious!); the place immediately felt calm, warm and relaxing, and the whole time I was there I felt more motivated, engaged and on point.
This trip was exactly what I needed.
It was great to meet Rene Hidalgo, an audio producer at Ubisoft in Montreal who came with us on the trip, and I hope that the positivity I took from this trip will resonate within me for the rest of the semester.
