“The spirit is beyond destruction. No one can bring an end to spirit which is everlasting.” ―
Are you seeking spiritual expansion?
Join us as Nayaswami Parvati and Nayaswami Pranaba bring the wisdom and power of the Bhagavad Gita to life! Hear its epic stories and how Krishna guides Arjuna (who represents every man) towards enlightenment.
The Bhagavad Gita tells us how to live an inner spiritual life amidst the outer chaotic world. Seekers of Truth throughout history have studied the Gita for its wisdom, guidance, and inspiration. In Krishna’s teaching to Arjuna there is a powerful transmission that meets us where we stand and delivers us to the next stage. The more you practice the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, the more you realize their power and truth, and the more they refine and open you.
How do we live in harmony with the law of karma? How do we bring our hearts more dynamically into our spiritual quest? How do we avoid the mental and emotional traps that can block our growth? How can we use the mind as a powerful tool for inner growth?
Come share an uplifting evening of spiritual expansion as Nayaswami Parvati and Nayaswami Pranaba help us find answers to these meaningful questions.
Date & Time: July 20, 6:30pm-7:30pm.
