5-day Dialogue Retreat at Banglore
16 to 20 August, 2023
Udhbhavaha organized a 5-day contemplative, residential retreat at the Art of Living Ashram in Bangalore. The retreat focused on exploring the intersection of tradition and modernity, guided by in-depth discussions with Pawan Gupta ji. The primary objective was to provide participants with the tools to critically examine the impact of the modern education system on our understanding of cultural heritage and intellectual traditions. The core of the retreat involved slow, reflective conversations centered around selected passages from Illuminations, a book by Professor A.K. Saran. These conversations, attended by approximately 20 participants, were designed to foster deeper contemplation on how traditional wisdom is being overshadowed by modernity in the current educational landscape.
