About the event
Transport yourself to the battlefield of Kurukshetra for an immersive journey through the Bhagavad-gita on Saturday, December 23rd.
Join us as we collectively read the Bhagavad-gita's 700 concise verses in a single sitting to fully absorb the wisdom they impart.
In this special session led by devoted Bhagavad-gita teacher Premananda Kirtana das, we'll read the full dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna from start to finish, gaining the complete picture of this pivotal conversation that sets the stage for self-realization. Premananda brings over 15 years experience unpacking the practical life lessons nested in the Bhagavad-gita's mythology.
As we read of Arjuna's crisis, Krishna's counsel, and the unfolding of Arjuna's spiritual awakening, we'll pause for discussion to cement our own understanding. While delving into profound concepts, we'll tie them back to daily application so the Bhagavad-gita may guide our New Year's growth.
To honor the tradition of communal chanting, we'll close our time together uplifted by kirtan music celebrating all we've absorbed.
O King, as I repeatedly recall this wo)ndrous and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I take pleasure, being thrilled at every moment.
(Bhagavad-gītā 18.76)
This full-day immersion promises to unlock the Bhagavad-gita's secrets that elicit thrill at every reading.
Join us to close 2023 focused on the wisdom that brings clarity, purpose and bliss.
