SUMMARY:Evening Geeta class
DESCRIPTION:Every Wednesday at 7:00 PM\, starting on September 11th to learn more about Chapter 17 (The Yoga of the Three-fold Faith). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event will feature insightful video lectures by Swami Chinmayananda\, offering profound wisdom and guidance. Following the lectures\, participate in enriching discussions that will deepen your understanding and provide opportunities to explore these teachings further. \nDon’t hesitate to contact Anil Parekh at parekh.anil@gmail.com or text at 613-738-7466 for more information and a Zoom meeting link. \n  \n\nMore about Chapter 17 (The Yoga of the Three-fold Faith)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe central theme of Chapter 17 is faith and its influence on the character and behaviour of individuals. It explains how faith manifests in different types of people based on their qualities\, intentions\, and spiritual maturity. The chapter categorizes faith into three types\, each associated with one of the three gunas (qualities or attributes) in Hindu philosophy: Sattva (goodness)\, Rajas (passion)\, and Tamas (ignorance). \n\n\n\nThe chapter also explains how a person’s type of faith influences their actions\, decisions\, and overall life path. It emphasizes that one’s actions\, whether performed with Sattvic\, Rajasic\, or Tamasic faith\, reflect one’s inner nature and spiritual progress. \nFinally\, it encourages self-awareness and introspection to cultivate a higher spiritual consciousness and perform actions aligned with wisdom and purity. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
