What is Gitamritam Bala?
Gitamritam is a very special camp, aimed at empowering the youth through creative learning of Bhagavad Gita. We try to awaken interest in Bhagavad gita, thereby learning the principles as we experiment and explore the truth mentioned in there in depth. Through this camp, one will discover the importance and subsequent need for Bhagavad Gita in enriching one’s life. This Bala camp is for the age group (13-16).
During the course of 7 days, a chapter of Gita is taken for thorough study. We expect all students to understand the concepts and teachings within the slokas and meditate upon them. The classes are held in a traditional fashion and all students are required to listen with full attention, therefore taking notes during the class is not encouraged. They can ask questions at any time and they will also be asked questions during daily reflections session, to ensure that their understanding is complete.
