A Live Webinar and TED Talk Deep Dive with Gopal D. Patel, TED speaker, faith-based keynote presenter, and environmental activist.
In this 75-minute LIVE webinar, learn how the spiritual framework from my TED Talk helped me go from burnt out to grounded and receive tools and inspiration for implementing it in your own life.
Plus, there will be a live Q&A, a free bonus for everyone registered, and the opportunity to connect with like-minded people who believe in creating a future worth living in–just like you.


The world is full of uncertainty. You look around you and see violence, pain, destruction, and devastation.
You feel overwhelmed, and find yourself paralyzed in both thought and action.
You’re unwilling to accept what is happening in the world. You look around for something–anything–you can control.
You feel alone and unsure, but power through because everything feels urgent.
It isn’t easy to slow down and reflect when the world is literally on fire.
But slowing down just might be the thing that keeps you going in these moments when everything feels impossible.
In fact, my TED Talk, The unexpected way spirituality connects to climate change (released November 10th), presents a spiritual framework to help you slow down, get grounded in something bigger than yourself, and build resiliency, so that you can find the light even in the darkest moments.



My TED framework has been so instrumental in my life that I want to share my personal journey with you–how I discovered my own BIG idea, how I implement these principles into my daily life, and how I use them to build momentum towards positive social change.
Join me for an a LIVE 75-minute facilitated conversation where I’ll do a deep dive on the spiritual framework from my TED Talk and share more about the practices and principles that keep me grounded in the face of uncertainty

Meet your host, Gopal D. Patel
I’m a TED Speaker, faith-based keynote presenter, consultant and environmental activist.
I know this framework works because I’ve lived it.
After graduating college, I set off to explore my own faith and identity. I went to live and study in Hindu Ashrams in India and England.
My teacher taught this framework to me, and he inherited it from his teacher. You could say it’s Hinduism 101.
When this framework was introduced to me, I was searching for a roadmap to understand how my faith tradition applied to contemporary concerns and how I can make it relevant to my daily life.
It helped me discover that place within myself that I can return to when everything else is out of control–whether in my personal life or in the world.
Over the years, I realized that this framework isn’t unique to Hinduism.
This framework represents the basic building blocks of almost every faith and spiritual tradition.
Faiths are some of the most enduring social movements in the world, so I knew I had a lot to learn from them.
And in my 20+ years working to translate and apply religious teachings and ideas into policy and action that contribute towards the common good… well, I’ve learned a lot.
And that’s why I’m excited to host this conversation with you–so you can deepen your understanding of these practices and principles and receive practical tips and concrete tools for integrating them into your own life and work.

If you join me for this 75-minute exclusive LIVE webinar, you’ll get:
-
The personal story behind how I implement these practices in my life
-
Ideas and guidance for uncovering your own BIG idea
-
Tips for integrating spiritual practice that you can apply immediately
Opportunity to connect with other like-minded spiritual changemakers
-
Live Q&A–audience members get to ask me anything.
-
BONUS: You’ll receive an advanced copy of the workbook for my Spiritual Framework for Resilience that delves deeper into the three S’s (sangha, sadhana, and seva) and the BIG idea and provides reflection questions to encourage you to implement this in your own life.


My personal hope is that you also come away from the webinar with…
-
Encouragement to turn inward when you’re feeling burnt out by the world
-
Renewed commitment and clarity of purpose in your social impact work
-
Inspiration for the unique contribution you have to make to the world
-
A sense of connection and a reminder that you are not alone
-
A ”recharge” of energy, presence, faith, and love
FAQs
Do I need to be part of a specific religious or spiritual tradition to take advantage of this webinar?
Absolutely not! You may be a long-time follower of a specific faith or you’re exploring the connection between spirituality and social change work. You don’t have to be religious or spiritual to take advantage of these learnings. They are for anyone looking for a renewed sense of purpose and intention or who wants to make the world a better place.

This webinar is an opportunity to explore all of that for yourself and find inspiration in others’ stories.
