Guest guest Posted January 14, 2001 Report Share Posted January 14, 2001 My Series of talks at Brent town hall have ended last night. My last talk was on Swami Vivekananda and Hindu philosophies. I drew from the lectures of Swami Vivekananda on the Samkhya and Vedanta philosophies. The talks were well received. The final talk concentrated on the teachings of Swami Vivekananda -- that always electrifies such gatherings! There was a lively question and answer session - the questions at this last talk were on role of 'Advaita' - to the findings of modern Physics. We had two youngsters in the audience who are writing for PhD on Advaita! They reacted in a very touching manner. How do we expand our little egos to reach out for the Advaita experience? Such humble request from those professing to write thesis on the most subtle of philosophies! Later on, one of them came to talk to me and opened his wallet --- not to show me the photos of his family or life partner , but revealing a photo of Sri Ramana...... One feels privileged to come across such youngsters..... - sincere about the highest expression of religion. I am having the best time of my life - This putting across the 'old man' is a grand experience. I recommend it highly. jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
