Nominate an Enlightened Being

In the Chopra Center’s continuing quest to raise the level of balance, healing, and transformation on the planet, we recognize that there are some very special people out there who are our inspirers, our role models, our archetypes, our heroes. To honor those people in your life, the Chopra Center is announcing The Enlightened Being Award, where you get the opportunity to nominate someone you believe is a force for inspiration in your life and the lives of others.

We will begin accepting submissions today, and we will announce the first Enlightened Being Award in our April Namasté. In 250 words or less (that’s no more than one page – all submissions longer than one page will not be reviewed), explain why this individual should receive the Enlightened Being Award. Why are they special? What challenges have they overcome? Who do they inspire? What are their creations? Over the course of 2009, we will select and celebrate four individuals. At the end of the year, Namasté readers will vote on the Enlightened Being of the Year.

What do those selected as Enlightened Beings receive?

In recognition of this global honor, the winner of the Enlightened Being Award will receive an ALL EXPENSES PASS to any Chopra Center event in 2009. We will fly you there, put you up in a VIP hotel room in the hotel, reserve a front row seat for you at the event of your choice, and feature you in Namasté. So please begin submitting your candidates now!

Submit your nomination by sending an email to EBA@chopra.com
