‘Radical Love - Life and Legacy of Satish Kumar’ Film Screening and Post-screening Talk
23/03
Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden is delighted to welcome Satish Kumar, a friend and returning teacher of KFBG, during its 70th anniversary celebrations. In 2024, Satish was honoured with an inspiring documentary film about his life and philosophy, and you are invited to a special screening that celebrates Satish’s life and legacy as well as his esteemed presence at KFBG.
Known for his 8,000-mile peace pilgrimage, Satish is an Indian pacifist, activist, author and educator who has been inspiring global change for almost 70 years. Between his home in southern England and a profound experience in India, the film captures Satish Kumar’s transformative journey. Directed by Brazilian Julio Hey, ‘Radical Love’ is a film about love and forgiveness, optimism and hope.
This is also a chance to connect and reconnect with like-minded others in the beautiful Kadoorie Centre with a light vegan dinner provided by Food Hub, and be inspired to take Satish’s legacy of radical love forward in your own lives.
More about ‘Radical Love’
‘Radical Love’ narrates the story of Satish becoming a monk, then an activist in the Land Gift movement and going on a peace pilgrimage around the world. The film also tells the story of Schumacher College, a centre for transformative learning founded by Satish in 1991, and Satish’s friendship with Vandana Shiva, an environmental activist from India. This intimate portrait follows Satish as a living demonstration of a life imbued with the powers of simplicity, collaboration and love.
KFBG 70th Anniversary – Awakening of Memory
The Radical Love film screening event is part of the celebrations marking the special occasion of KFBG’s 70th anniversary. It integrates a wider series of activities curated to deepen our connection with the Earth.
Guided by the theme ‘awakening of memory’, these gatherings call us to remember our place within the greater community of beings. This anniversary is an invitation – to return, to remember and to share the stories that bind us to this living landscape of KFBG’s mountain and the Earth itself. It is about how we live in the present and the future we shape together – deepening the dialogue between people and nature, and carrying this shared legacy forward in an ever-changing world.
