a general session on ancient wisdom of india and how it can be of use to modern hi-tech world. ideas in the form of symbols of culture and religion? how words and language convey ideas specific to a culture.

understanding ourselves in the process. demystifying concepts, clarifying misunderstanding, and sharing amazing insights, many other verbs on many other nouns 🙂

e.g.

– qualities of a good leader? – from bhAsa’s kAdambari!

– what does the visual representation of shiv mean? – the names mahAkAl, mahAdev; the snakes, ashes, two earrings? what does lakshmI, saraswatI, viShNu, durgA, ayodhyA, dharma etc mean? understanding the meaning will give a totally new insight into our ‘superstitions’ 🙂

– a simple daily practice that reduces chances of heart attack? – there is actual a hard science reason for this, even recent TOI news (reported too late) says heart attacks happen mostly in early morning hours, the waking hours.

– mantras for every occasion? – right from waking, bathing, eating, sleeping etc. why? and what is the psychlogical/spiritual significance.

– status of women in ancient indian society? – in the recent ‘culture protector’ events in news, this will be an eye opener.

– where not to live? – before moving to a place, what should you check out?

– do we have no rights on the results of our deeds? – the most misunderstood concept of indian philosophy!
