Guest guest Posted October 17, 1998 Report Share Posted October 17, 1998 The following is the list of Bhagavad Gita Study Groups outside India. In several cases (all the swamis, Gloria Areira in Brazil, Matish Pareira in San Francisco, Richard Goeller in Santa Fe NM) these are well qualified teachers who are likely to be teaching classes in upanishads, etc. I have yet to get together a list of people currently teaching, what text, and what day and time but that is on my list of Things To Do. ************************* (Here is a list of groups which conduct Study Groups using the Bhagavad Gita lectures by Swami Dayananda Saraswati. These lectures were given over many months at the intensive course in Vedanta and Sanskrit given at Piercy, California between 1979 and 1982. Swamiji’s talks were based on the commentary of AdishaN^karAchArya. Transcriptions of these talks were lovingly made by Irene Schleicher and Martha Doherty Chhabre. So far they are still only available in two very large loose leaf notebooks from Arsha Vidya Gurukulum in Saylorsburg, PA. In any form they are treasures.)
