Solving World Problems with Sadhana
 February 28, 2009

Jiva today organised a one-day workshop on Vedic Education and Philosophy conducted by eminent Vedic scholar Dr. Satya Narayana Dasa, Director, Jiva Culture at it headquarters at Faridabad, India.

Attended by selected participants from Canada, Italy, USA and India, the workshop offered an insight into the anatomy of fundamental human problems in the light of ancient Indian philosophy ingrained in sacred books such as Vedas, Vedangas, Upnishadas and Puranas.

Dr. Dasa mesmerised the audience with his soft-worded, lucid explanation of complex philosophical jargons. During his lecture Dr. Dasa showed to the participants how the problems faced by the common men in this busy, modern world of today such as terrorism, over-consumerism, work-related stress and economic disparities can be easily solved with the application of ancient Indian wisdom found in books as old as 5000 years.

The solution is in considering ourselves as Atma (souls) rather than Sharira (bodies) and in being one with Paramatma (the Super Soul—the God) which can be attained with meditation (Sadhana).

People who joined in the list of workshop-participants included Dr. Partap Chauhan, Director, Jiva Ayurveda; Mr. Steven Rudolph, Director, Jiva Education and Mr. Rishi Pal Chauhan, President, Jiva Group.
