‘Stuti’ in sanskrit means glorification. Stotras are hymns which seekers use to glorify god, to fill the mind with divine vibrations.If one praises god who is beyond all expectations, one becomes completely free from pride, arrogance and attains godhead. ‘Stuti Vandana’ is a collection of famous stotras put together by our mission members, for instilling the idea of humility in our children’s mind. Children will receive a medal for each stotra that they have memorized. When the child correctly completes the current year’s Bagavad Geeta chapter, he or she will automatically be awarded the Stuti Vandana medal for that chapter. When the child has memorized all the stotras, he or she is awarded the final plaque with Pujya Gurudev’s signature on it. In this program every child is a winner for life.

Adult Study Group Attendees: Open only to registered Balavihar families or Parivaar/Sevak members Time: 7:00 - 8:45 pm Fridays on Balavihar weekends Kathopanishad is a unique Upanishad which starts with a katha (a story) of a young boy who is ready to face the Lord of Death in his quest for Truth to know what lies beyond death. He asks the very pertinent and philosophical question, ‘Is there or is there not, and if it is what is it?’In short, this teaching is an extravaganza of spiritual knowledge and meditation that guides a student step by step to the glorious state of immortality, peace and bliss. The format of our class will be to watch video of Guruj’s discourses for about 30 minutes and continue our Satsangha reading out Gurudev’s Book on Kathopanishad followed by Q&A . The class will have active participation with a quest to prime our precious moments to unfold the mystery beyond Death.
