Dr. Mala Kapadia, Director, Interdisciplinary Research Initiatives, Anaadi Foundation, Palani, Tamil Nadu, Bharat joins Drs. Claudia Welch & Ramkumar--and the Vedic Threads community to discuss the following:
The pandemic era has created, unveiled and exacerbated mental health concerns that persist. It has been a strong wake-up call to humanity. In the post-Covid, “new normal”, we are prompted to evaluate the strength of our health, happiness and immunity, and question how we are living and what indeed is and supports these things.
Radhasharandas Rajesh Shinde ji will join Drs. Claudia Welch & Ramkumar and the Vedic Threads community to introduce us to India's ancient art of geomancy and help us consider how to apply some of this knowledge in our modern lives.
Join Drs. Anuradha Choudry, Ramkumar and Claudia in Vedic Threads to explore the role of paramparā (tradition) & dṛṣṭi (perspective, worldview, vision) in ancient vs. modern education, to consider what has been lost, and what we might wish to restore.
Join us in a heartfelt exploration of Indian wisdom traditions with Vedic Threads, a membership-based course by Satsangam, co-facilitated by Drs. Ramkumar and Claudia Welch. From September to December 2024, our program includes Amar Ramesh's session on the cultural significance of Tamil Nadu's mandapams, a 2-year anniversary celebration featuring cameo appearances by Dr. Robert Svoboda and Dr. Shubham Kulkarni, and a discussion on dharma in modern contexts with Hanuman Dass of Go Dharmic. Additionally, Rose Baudin will delve into the lives of Abhinavagupta and Lal Ded, exploring their impact on philosophy, poetry, and yoga.
This course--co-taught by Drs. Shubham Kulkarni, Robert Svoboda and Claudia Welch, invites participants to explore the universal process of death through a blend of Indian wisdom traditions, and end-of-life care practices. It offers a rich exploration of the emotional and spiritual dimensions associated with dying, aiming to transform personal fears into opportunities for spiritual growth. Participants will learn about philosophical perspectives on death, the stages of death, and practical, ethical considerations in end-of-life care. The course also emphasizes compassionate support, self-care for caregivers, and the role of music therapy, providing a comprehensive understanding of death from multiple perspectives.
