A Lovely Evening with Gita

Gita is relevant, today! That is what he tried to put across very gracefully. 

Just back from a talk on Gita and its relevance today and how clearing our ignorance will lead us to joyous living. The Chinamaya Head, who is in Pondy right now, will be giving this talk for the next four days. Thanks to Mrs. Gaitri, who gave me this wonderful opportunity of listening to this man of wisdom. 

Today was just the intro day, still what he said lingers. Most of which was said are facts we have come across several times in life, but never paid attention to. 

A few questions that he put across:-\

We all shop, from Needles to Limousines....what do we look for in a product that we buy? Quality of the Product. Of course, quality is always in our mind when we are ready to spend money on something. We look for all the ways to get info about the product, ask around and ensure that we buy the best product available in market, for that particular price. Of course! Then came his question! How many of us are bothered so much about the quality of our mind, the quality of our life or the quality of our love? Do we pay so much attention to these???????? Of Course, No would be the answer! Why do we value only when money is involved? Isn't Life more important than that?

Another one! We are all confident when we dress up well. We are so much bothered about the way we look, but what about our outlook on life? 

It was really nice listening to him. A simple, graceful man ! Looking forward to hearing more from him....
