LESSONS FROM THE RAMAYANA RAMANAVAMI CELEBRATION
The birthday of Lord Ramachandra fell on 26th March 2007 this year as per US local time. Accordingly the topic of discussion of our next satsanga discussion program is "Lessons from the Ramayana." - "Ramanavi Celebration."
This is a very important topic because Lord Ramachandra came to exemplify the ideal qualities. His relationships with His father, His wife, His brother, His devotees, and even His enemies, in fact everybody, sets an absolute precedent for humanity to refer to for eternity.
We can find blissful and enlivening lessons from the history of Ramayana to apply to in our current lives even in the degraded age of Kaliyuga.
Let us get together to find as many of those lessons as possible in the short time we have.
Deities (murti swarup) of Lord Shri Ramachandra, Sita, Lakshman and Hanuman to offer flower abhishekam for Ramanavami celebration are arriving from Chicago. Every body will get the opportunity to offer abhishekam.
Please forward the invitation to and bring along your interested friends. The program will end with sumptuous prasadam. Please RSVP by end of day Thursday 19th April. Even if you somehow miss doing the RSVP, please do not hesitate to come, nevertheless.
To volunteer your services, please contact 661 8985 or 661 9780

The Bhagavad Gita is a conversation between God and H=
is
dear devotee, Arjuna, 5000 years ago, in the mi=
ddle
of a vast battlefield, just before a very huge war was about to commence in
which millions of warriors would get killed.
It began with Arjuna's mi=
nd
reeling with despondency, dilemma and confusion about his duty and ended wi=
th
resolution of all his doubts and his mind clear, convinced, committed and
surrendered about his duty.
Just so what is the relevance of that conversation to=
day,
fast forward 5000 years. How can that conversation provide solutions to the
problems of the society today, both at individual and collective level? Are=
the
problems the society is facing today different from those the society had 5=
000
years back?
Is anyone having doubts or questions about what his
expected duty is in this human lifetime? Is there a battlefield today? Wher=
e is
it? Is there a war today? How and where is it happening?=

To the mind eager to explore the ancient wisdom and i=
