Dharma – The Root of Contentment

Dharma is a fascinating and subtle topic the study of which helps us in the unfolding of the deepest truth of who we were born to be.  Dharma has many meanings, but it is essentially our own path of right living. It involves the concept of turning towards the light no matter what is happening. Dharma is said to underpin everything in our lives.

Originating from the wisdom that was laid down in the Vedas, dharma refers to teachings, values, obligations, duties, the laws, justice, and everything related to the sustaining of a high vibration of life and being ness.

If we are looking to find meaning in our lives, if we want to experience deep satisfaction and progress, look no further than dharma.

The sacred root mantra Om is one of the keys to aligning with our dharma. We will have practice sessions of om, mixed with other mantras as they arise, including Om Shanti.

This 3 day intensive experience will involve:

• Understanding of the outer and inner nature of dharma
• Dharma in Vedic context
• Mantra practice
• Divine program and blessings
• Dharma teachings
• Self-inquiry and reflection, connection to the ‘river within’
• Time in nature
• Participation in service team and tasks
• World service practices
• Reflections upon the ‘road less travelled’ and further awakening, Surrender and Re-awakening of Shanti Mission as a dharma teaching and portal
