Course Description
- The course on Self-Awareness and Personal Growth is essentially an experiential learning programme based on the teachings and revelations of enlightened minds of the past and present of different countries/places, especially, Bharatavarsha.
- In this course the primary emphasis is on the individual, the person and his/her entire personality structure, both the inner as well as the outer.
- In this course the participants/students are encouraged to begin a process of self-study and self- observation, starting from NOW, for self-unfoldment and eventual self-realization.
- The course endeavors to instill a firm foundation for the holistic development and growth of the individuals in all spheres and dimensions of existence, which help one to live life in all its depth, glory and benediction.
- The course, as it proceeds, will deeply and objectively go into the various perceptions/views of great seers, scientists and thinkers of all ages and cultures, which will be shared and discussed in order to help the participants/students discover for themselves the truth or falseness of it all.
- This course, in its interactive proceedings, is a sincere attempt to create a congenial ambience, in which both the teacher and the taught ask, nourish and sustain fundamental questions with an abiding sense of urgency, concern and openness without being carried away by superficial explanations and verbal wranglings.
- By offering a variety of inputs drawn from different sources from all over the world, the course strives to bring about a conscious shift of focus from the ordinary to the extraordinary; unreal to the real; transitory to the eternal; mediocrity to excellence through a process of dynamic dialogues and penetrating insights
- This course is an effort to revive the deep felt need for self-knowledge first and foremost before anything else.
- This course, one should understand, is not an end in itself. It is just a beginning, a voyage on an uncharted boundless sea. There is no goal to be reached, no rewards, no punishments either. It is a pointer, pointing towards the Unknowable.
