On October 15th, we launched into the fourth year of Bhakti Tirtha, which has now become an ongoing program at Jiva Institute. People who cannot participate in the complete six months semester can also come for a shorter period or just follow the course through the recordings.
If want to follow the classes from home at your convenience, you can receive the daily recordings. Please visit our Online Store for that. You will then be added to student email groups, where you receive all the necessary information.
This course is a unique opportunity to study Gaudiya Vaishnava scriptures in specific and the Sad Darshanas in general, which are necessary to understand Gaudiya philosophy properly.
This semester, there will be no winter break. Rather, we will have a Japa Retreat from Jan. 4th until Jan. 11th. You can also participate in that if you don’t register for the course.
