Quote of the Week

Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 9, Verse 22)

ananyāś cintayanto māḿ ye janāḥ paryupāsate
teṣāḿ nityābhiyuktānāḿ yoga-kṣemaḿ vahāmy aham

Sri Krishna: To those people who take refuge in me, making me the sole
object of their thoughts, experiencing union in me, I take
responsibility of granting them everything needed and preserving all
that is granted, thereby securing their well-being.Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 9, Verse 22)

Saraswati Puja

Date:  January 26, 6pm sharp
Location:  Class of 1949, Houston Hall

Are you ready for a successful semester and year ahead? Join HSC/YJA for a Saraswati Puja on January 26th to start off the semester the right way and show some devotion and appreciation for knowledge, music, and culture! The puja will take place in Class of '49 Auditorium and starts at 6pm sharp! Please bring books to be blessed during the puja. This event is a great way to have a relaxing, yet engaging, cultural experience after the long break. Dinner will be served!

During the event, we will be accepting donations for the organization Seekho, which is an organization that aims to increase access to true knowledge in India. It was started by a Penn alum who will be sending a representative from the organization to briefly talk about the organization. Every little bit helps, so please think about donating!
