Name: Bhagavad Gita Book Club (Study Circle)-- Chapter 8: The Eternal Godhead
Start: 2025-12-06T10:30:00-06:00
End: 2025-12-06T12:30:00-06:00
Location: Casa de Luz

Chapter 8 continues the theme of meditation started in chapter 7. Krishna explains the journey of the soul after death and the importance of always remembering Him in order to keep this in mind at the moment of death-- a key determinant of what happens to the soul for the next birth and whether once will go to the Highest after birth or have to be reborn again here on Earth.

Krishna also explains in more detail some of the differences in terminology used to relate to the eternal and how the Gunas and Maya conceal His true nature. There is also a brief explanation of the expansion and contraction of the Universal consciousness and manifestation that has been more recently supported by modern cosmology.

For the purposes of this book club/study group, we will be using ***Eknath Easwaran's 2nd edition version of the Bhagavad Gita***. This book was chosen as it is less heavy on some of the Sanskrit terminology and will be much easier to read for those not already familiar with this text. It is also inexpensive to purchase and easy to find. Ideally, all participants will have read the chapter prior to the meeting, so that the time may be spent in discussion and clarification of the text.
We will be serving GF/CF/vegan Chai and snacks for those attending!
