Mahabharata: The 2nd Global CHYK Camp with Swami Swaroopananda

Hari Om,

Mahabharata: the 2nd Global CHYK CampSwami SwaroopanandaDecember 24th 2009 to January 1st 2010Chinmaya International Residential School, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, IndiaCamp fee: $200 (USD)

Topic and Acharya
For most CHYKs across the world, Swami Swaroopananda needs no introduction. Director of the Chinmaya International Residential School, senior Acharya of the Chinmaya Mission and inspiration to tens of thousands of people across the world, the first global CHYK camp, ‘7 Days, 7 Powers’ in 2006 was Swamiji’s vision to bring together CHYKs from Australia, Africa, Europe, USA and Asia. The result was a truly uplifting 7 days that most attendees will never forget.
2009 sees the second such camp and the ambitious topic is the entire Mahabharata.
Probably the greatest epic in the history of the written word, the Mahabharata is a reflection of life: its verses filled with dilemma, moral ambiguity and ultimately spiritual truth. Its story contains the entire spectrum of human values: who better to guide us through it than Swamiji?

The Venue
The camp is fully residential and will take place at the Chinmaya International Residential School set in the lush and beautiful Nilgiris hills surrounding Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. Accommodation and food are of international standard and the school’s grounds are simply breathtaking in their natural beauty.

Dates
The camp will commence on Thursday 24 December 2009 and end on Friday 1 January 2010.

Cost
The cost is $200 (US). This include all meals, accommodation and materials but excludes transport to and from CIRS.
