The Bhagavad-Gita lecture series is provided by Prabhupada das,
also know as Lon Solomon.
While studying in Brooklyn College, Lon Solomon met the founder of the
Hare Krishna movement, at the time of the humble beginning of what was to soon
become a worldwide organization. He currently teaches each fall in Vrndavana,
India under the auspices of the Vrndavana Institute for Higher Education
(VIHE), though he is based in Miami
The Bhagavad Gita is commonly referred to as "yoga
knowledge" or "yoga wisdom" for the yogi who is interested in
the intellectual aspects of what yoga has to offer. The lecture series covers
the five principal subject matters of this ancient Vedic text as well as the
epistemology of the Gita and why it is still relevant today. Furthermore, each
session focuses on a select chapter of the Gita and there is room for questions
and answers.
