ISKCON of Silicon Valley is happy to present a Bhagavad Gita Course.

Please see below for more details.

Duration: 20 sessions of one hour each Dates: Starting on Aug 8th  Timings: 6:15pm - 7:15pm PST Registration: https://www.bhagavataseva.com/index.php/851-2 Charges: $200 USD for the course/$10 per session.  One registration covers the entire family.   What would be covered in this Course: Bhagavad Gita overview through its 17 questions The Bhagavad-gita is essentially a question-answer session between Krishna and Arjuna; its message is initiated by Arjuna’s starting question and its flow is shaped by Arjuna’s subsequent questions.  Looking at the Gita through the framework of Arjuna’s questions reveals how the text  is coherent and cogent. In this course, each session will center on one of Arjuna’s questions and analyze it from five perspectives: What is Arjuna’s exact question and why does he get that question at that point? How does that question matter for us?  What is Krishna’s answer? How does Krishna’s mood in answering the question complement his answer? What qualities of Arjuna as a student and Krishna as a teacher are revealed through their question-answer interaction? How can we apply Krishna’s answer in our contemporary context? About the speaker: Chaitanya Charan is a monk, motivational speaker, an author, and a spiritual life coach. He is highly-regarded by his audiences for his intellectually stimulating presentations on addressing modern-day challenges within and around us based on timeless universal principles. His talks and articles offer elegant spiritual perspectives on a wide range of topics including science, management, economics, and wellness among several others. An engineer by education and a spiritual observer by training, Chaitanya Charan has systematically penned over two thousand daily wisdom meditations to unearth the treasure of timeless wisdom from the Bhagavad-gita in the form of the world’s only Gita-daily feature (www.gitadaily.com). Apart from authoring twenty books of wisdom, he delivers inspirational talks in several reputed universities and companies worldwide and has also been an invited speaker at UNESCO’s World Peace Conference.
