SUMMARY:2024 Thanksgiving Family Vedanta Camp
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online \n\n\nTOPICS:\nContemplation with Swami Muktatmananda\nThe three pillars of study in Vedanta are śravaṇa (listening to the unfolding of the śāstra by the teacher)\, manana (resolving vagueness and doubts)\, and nididhyāsana (contemplation on what has been understood). In this course\, Swamiji will discuss the characteristics of Vedantic contemplation and how to make it part of our daily life. \n\n\nBhakti – Discovering Love with Swami Sachidananda\nThere is a natural love for the self; all that is loved is loved for the sake of the self alone. Bhakti is defined in the Nārada Bhakti Sūtras as paramaprema-rūpā\, absolute unchanging love for Īśvara. Such love is possible only through an inquiry into Īśvara\, and the discovery that the nature of Īśvara is none other than the nature of the self. This course will explore bhakti as the ultimate manifestation of the natural love for the self. \n\n\nREGISTRATION (for in-person participation):\nCall Vimala at ‭(570) 656-0193‬\nOR\nWrite to suddhatma@gmail.com. \n\n\nONLINE VIEWING: CLICK HERE \n\n\nSCHEDULE: \n\n\nAll times are Eastern Time (ET/UTC-5) \n\n\nThursday\, Nov 28\n8:00-8:15 pm Orientation with Suddhatmaji\n8:15-9:00 pm Satsang with Swami Muktatmanandaji \n\n\nFriday\, Nov 29\n7:00-7:30 am Guided Meditation with Swami Sachidanandaji\n9:00-10:00 am Contemplation with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n11:00am-12:00pm Bhakti – Discovering Love with Swami Sachidanandaji\n4:30-5:30 pm Bhakti – Discovering Love with Swami Sachidanandaji\n7:30-8:30 pm Satsang (Q&A) with Swami Sachidanandaji \n\n\nSaturday\, Nov 30\n7:00-7:30 am Guided Meditation with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n9:00-10:00 am Contemplation with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n11:00am-12:00pm Bhakti – Discovering Love with Swami Sachidanandaji\n4:30-5:30 pm Contemplation with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n7:30-8:30 pm Satsang (Q&A) with Swami Muktatmanandaji \n\n\nSunday\, Dec 1\n8:30-9:30 am Contemplation with Swami Muktatmanandaji followed by Gurudakshina\n10:00-11:00 am Bhakti – Discovering Love with Swami Sachidanandaji\n11:30am-12:30pm 1st and 3rd Sunday Gita Class with Swami Muktatmanandaji

SUMMARY:2024 Patrons' Complimentary Course 2
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online \nView on YouTube \nCourse Booklet \nDṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka\nwith Swami Tattvavidananda\nThe famous text of Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka is an inquiry into the truth of the seer\, dṛg\, and the seen\, dṛśya. Because of identification with the body and mind\, the infinite self appears to assume their limitations and get caught in the web of saṁsāra. The only way out is through viveka\, the ability to clearly discern between the changing and the unchanging. Swamiji will unfold the means for developing this viveka and thereby gaining freedom. \nBhagavad Gita 3.3\nwith Swami Muktatmananda \nThe topic of the third chapter of the Gītā is karma-yoga. In this third verse\, Lord Kṛṣṇa tells Arjuna that there are two committed lifestyles available for a seeker: jñāna-yoga and karma-yoga. Swamiji will unfold the unique features of both of these lifestyles. \nSCHEDULE:\nAll times are Eastern Time ET (UTC-4) \nFriday\, August 30\, 2024\n8:00-9:00 pm Orientation and Satsang with Swami Tattvavidanandaji \nSaturday\, August 31\n7:00-7:30 am Guided Meditation with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n9:00-10:00 am Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n11:00am-12:00pm Bhagavad Gita 3.3 with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n4:30-5:30 pm Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n7:30-8:30 pm Satsang Q&A with Swami Tattvavidananda \nSunday\, September 1\n7:00-7:30 am Guided Meditation with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n9:00-9:45 am Vedic Chanting Class with Suddhatmaji\n10:00-11:00 am Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n11:30am-12:30pm Bhagavad Gita 3.3 with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n4:30-5:30 pm Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n7:30-8:30 pm Satsang Q&A with Swami Tattvavidananda \nMonday\, September 2\n7:00-7:30 am Guided Meditation with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n9:00-10:00 am Bhagavad Gita 3.3 with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n11:00am-12:00pm Dṛg-Dṛśya-Viveka with Swami Tattvavidanandaji\n12:00 pm Guru Dakshina

SUMMARY:2024 Family Vedanta Course 3
DESCRIPTION:TOPICS and TEACHERS:\nĀtma-anātma-viveka with Swami Viditatmananda\nViveka means discernment. Discerning the difference between ātmā\, which is the self or “I”\, and anātmā\, that which is nonself\, is the fundamental task in Vedanta. The mix-up\, or seeing one where there are two\, caused by identifying the body as the self is the source of all sorrow in life. \nĀtma-anātma-viveka Text \nAparokshanubhuti 111-125 with Swami Muktatmananda\nAparokṣānubhūti by Śrī Ādi Śaṅkarācārya is a complete text of Vedānta\, detailing all that is involved in gaining self-knowledge.
