Uplifting kirtan, dynamic discussions, & amazing veg dinner.About this Event"Head to HeartBefore love comes understanding. Before conviction comes inquiry. In the Seventh Chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā, Krishna invites us to move beyond both blind belief and blind skepticism by asking a deeper question: How do we know what is true? At its heart, this is a question of epistemology—the study of how we acquire reliable knowledge. Join us as we explore how knowledge leads to realization, and how the journey to God begins in the head but ultimately transforms the heart."Hi ?‍♂️ I’m Chandra, (AKA )I began my journey into the spirituality of the East over 30 years ago. Since then I have spent many years studying Vedic philosophy in ashrams around the USA and India. I have been teaching topics such as karma, Ayurveda, the guṇas of yoga, meditation, kirtan, Bhagavad Gītā, and so on.My teaching journey has led me to speak at many universities, multinational companies, yoga studios, retreats, and in humble settings of homes and 12-step programs. Teaching is my passion, helping others help oneself is what inspires me.?Punk to monk ??Kirtan ♥️ lover?? Bhakti teacher ??
