One year ago Paramahamsa Vishwananda came to the Srinivasa to celebrate Gita Jayanti – the day when Lord Sri Krishna told the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna.
Grab a front row seat for a dynamic event centred around this timeless scripture. Discover the ‘Qualities of a Devotee’ as revealed through Krishna’s teachings. Sing along with our kirtans. Worship the guru and the Gita with pujas and a special yajna where all 700 verses of the Gita will be read.
BIRTH OF THE GITA
More than 5000 years ago on this day, the Lord, in the role of humble charioteer, spoke to His friend and disciple Arjuna, in the middle of a battlefield on the brink of war. The wisdom He delivered then is equally as relevant today and has a deeper meaning for our lives. The Bhagavad Gita provides a roadmap to guide spiritual seekers all the way to the Ultimate, God-realisation.
We will conduct a Gita Yagna, during which all the 700 verses of the Gita will be recited.
DID YOU KNOW?
Lord Krishna says, the knowledge taught in the Gita, ‘Was handed down in disciplic succession, the royal sages received this knowledge. But due to the passage of time, Arjuna this yoga was lost to the world. It is this same ancient yoga which I now teach to you, as you are My devotee and My friend; it is indeed the highest mystery.’ Bhagavad Gita 4.2-3
