This program aims to explore various concepts presented in Bhagavad Gita and analyze them using specific case studies mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam. Reading inspiring stories and deriving valuable lessons from these will be the major activity in these sessions. Also, it aims to connect these concepts to daily metropolitan life, giving one the much needed joy and guidance that we are all seeking for.
We will be addressing the tricky statements like “Spirituality is only for Non-Performers, if divinity exists why is there so much chaos?” and approaching them from the perspective of Srimad Bhagavatam. The program will be taught by teachers who are long time students of Srimad Bhagavatam and have experience working in the corporate world.
Every week there will be mantra meditation, followed by discussion, and questions and answers. Seekers of Spirituality will find their answers along with new realizations in these weekly learning sessions.
