| | | | HARE KRSNA! | | | Dear Friends, Hope this meets you all well. Life is a school of love. In this school, we are not just hungry, but starving for love. Just think of the difficulty involved in trying live a so-called normal life if we don't have food, water, or proper shelter. It is very difficult. If we take this reflection a step further, we realize that our real nourishment and shelter is love, because the soul is made of love. Ultimately, life is about spiritual expressions, which involve completeness, knowledge, and happiness. These spiritual expressions will manifest as we recognize our eternal nature. We are eternal beings, which means that we are not meant to have temporary experiences. If we think of ourselves as temporary entities, it will consequently mean that goals will also be temporary. However, since we are eternal beings, our activities are ultimately meant to be eternal. With great happiness in our hearts, we welcome you ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV) for our classes and events this week! | | | Wednesday, April 2- Bhagavad Gita Class DEVELOPING SPIRITUAL COMPETENCY THROUGH BHAGAVAD GITA You can gain an unlimited spiritual quality from the Bhagavad Gita and in this session the speaker will emphasize on the 10 important spiritual competencies that will not only help in spiritual advancement but also in our material life.

Yoga asanas like Sun Salutation increases vitality, overall health and improve the immune system. Pranayama eliminates stress, helps develop a sense of inner peace and calm. Meditation helps in overcoming negative emotions, facilitates a calm and peaceful mind. Discussion on Vedic philosophy facilitates personal discovery, growth and advancement in our spiritual journey. Anger is a natural response to perceived threats. The instinctive, natural way to express anger is to respond aggressively. When anger gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems at work, in personal relationships, and in the overall quality of life. This session is meant to help us understand and control anger. We can’t get rid of, or avoid, the things or the people that enrage us, nor can we change them, but we can learn to control our reactions and learn to respond to anger in a controlled, healthy way.
