Workshop No. 9, Topic: Is there a completely different way of living?

Dates: Friday, March 2, 2012 — Tuesday, March 6, 2012

Place: Hotel Girija Resort, Village Bhilar, Panchgani, Taluka Mahabaleshwar, District Satara.

“One can see very clearly that one must lay a new foundation for a different kind of living, a different way of looking at life as a whole, not fragmentarily, a way of thinking when it is absolutely necessary, most efficiently, logically, and sanely, but while the mind is not functioning in thought, for the mind to be completely quiet the rest of the time. A way of living where action is complete and not contradictory, so that one action doesn't deny or bring about corruption, or disintegration in other activities. A way of living that is of tremendous enjoyment, great delight, without the exhausting process of pleasure. And also a way of life that is completely and utterly peaceful. Now can all this be realized in our daily living? That's what I would like to talk about, if that is what you also want.”

- J. Krishnamurti

Are we happy the way we are living? The daily routine, boredom, problems in relationships, conflicts, tensions at home and at working place, constant pursuit of pleasure, struggle for achievement, all this interspersed with occasional joys and moments of happiness seems to be our daily life. Is this all life is about? If not, then what are we doing with our life?  Is there a way of living which is completely different from that described above? How does one find out? What is the deeper significance of life? What is the purpose of human life? Can it be realized in our daily life and not remain just as an intellectual concept? A journey of exploration into our own daily life and the possibilities beyond will be taken up in this workshop. If you are not happy the way you are living and want to explore the possibility of a deep radical change, this is the workshop for you. This workshop does not promise change but invites you to join the journey of exploration into the depths and expanses of human life.
