Bhagavad Gita – Chapter 8 (Transcending Death)

&

Bhaja Govindam (Seek the Truth)

Swami Shantananda - Discourses in English

Mesmerized by Pujya Swami Chinmayananda in the 1960s, Swami Shantananda (then Brahmachari Raghavan) served Pujya Gurudev as his traveling secretary for a few years. 

After completing the Vedanta course in Mumbai, he then traveled to Taiwan where he successfully managed his own business and taught Vedanta part-time. 

In 1992, Swamiji received sannyasa diksha and was posted as the Acharya of CM Tri-State (New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania).   As a speaker, Swamiji’s talks are filled with wonderful insights into life and people respond instantly to his wisdom and affectionate nature.

In this chapter Sri Krishna teaches the Imperishable nature of Brahman.  An underlying message is to remember the Divine throughout one's life and especially at the time of death.  Explore how such practical devotion can lead us to the Supreme.

Date:  Wed, Apr. 20 – Fri, Apr. 22
Time:  7.15p - 7.30p – Bhajans
7.30p – 9.00p – Discourse
&
Date:  Sat, Apr. 23
Time:  9.15a – 9.30a – Bhajans
9.30a – 11.00a Discourse

Acharya Gaurang Nanavaty - Discourses in Gujarati

Following Pujya Swami Chinmayananda’s instructions, the Nanavatys embarked upon a life dedicated to spreading spiritual knowledge after completing their Vedantic studies in 1982. 

Being one of us, Gaurangji is in a unique position to understand our problems and guide us along the path of spirituality. 

His words are potent as he translates anecdotes from daily life into insightful expositions on Vedanta. 

With steadfastness, commitment and sincerity, he keeps reminding everyone to live a life of simplicity filled with noble values.

Bhaja Govindam is one of the most important works of Adi Shankaracharya.  Here the fundamentals of Vedanta are taught in simple, musical verses.  For a seeker a sincere study of this poem can remove all delusions.
