II INVITATION II

Hare Krishna

Please accept this heartfelt invitation to participate in the next Bhagavad Gita discussion program as per the following details.

Topic:  Relevance of Bhagavad Gita today?<= /span>

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= ts application for solutions to difficulties (that seem to be contemporary), t= his presentation will be like a ripe mango fruit for the hungry soul.
