Understanding Chitta: The Role of Memory in Vedanta and Enlightenment
ZOOM on 21th July of 2024 at 7pm Madrid time
Dear friends
On Sunday July 21 James will unfold the teaching on the chitta, memory, which is the cornerstone of Vedanta and one of the four functions or 'limbs' of the Subtle Body. Gaining clear knowledge depends on it. Without it, Vedanta will not work, because nothing will be retained and therefore, Self-knowledge will not assimilate, and you will never experience the ever-present unborn bliss of your true nature. Your ignorance of your wholeness will remain, denying Self-realization. And, naturally, without firm Self-knowledge how will you actualize what you know? Come on Sunday and learn the value of the chitta, memory!
Furthermore, a PET scan (Positron emission tomography) on Monday has revealed that James needs another heart procedure. James says his doctor is positive that it will be an opportunity to build on his vascular system’s ability to provide more oxygen to his heart. Unfortunately, because of the timing, and to provide a longer recovery from the routine procedure, this means that we will have to cancel the Berkeley seminar. We sincerely apologise to all the Berkleyites, but that is one of Isvara’s curved balls. We are hopeful that James will have his A-game at Trout Lake as always. Those planning to attend Trout Lake should check next week’s newsletter.
Ps. Below is a photo of Ramji and Dave on Long Island, where Dave is taking excellent care of him. Thank you so much, Dave!
Much love
Sundari and Ramji
