On the 22nd of Jan, I spoke in the Sri Ramakrishna Math in Mylapore Chennai on the ' Living Presence of Indian Spirituality' on the occassion of the Public Celebration of the Birthday of Swami Vivekananda.

Swaraj Lecture this weekend...

Talk on Swaraj...07/01/2012 Ma Foi Foundation  organizes monthly talks on different subjects for college youth under the title, "மெய்பொருள் காண்பது அறிவு" ("to comprehend the truth behind is knowledge", the second half of a famous thirukkural of poet Tiruvalluvar that has "regardless of whatever you hear from whomsoever", as the first half ).  These meetings are aimed to create a serious dialogue of ethical nature amongst the youth in the city, particularly in the industrial belt in northern Chennai where the youth are exposed more to the economic, social and political conflicts of a unsustainable metropolis life. This Saturday (07/01/2012), I will be taking them through the fundamentals of "Hind Swaraj" as an introduction to a dialogue on the bases of development.  -  Ram, Chief Consultant, Samanvaya    Published in the Hind Swaraj Blog
