VHF presents two levels of Spiritual
Heritage Awareness Packages. Basic and Advanced. Both
these Packages are generally in the form of 3-4 days 'Camp' Packages.
These Camps can be organized in any place having having the right
infra-structure, ambiance & preferably some natural beauty. It can be
any institution, resort, tented accommodation or even a ship. Camp by
its very nature is a dedicated full-time program, and the participants
will need to give all the four days entirely for this work. Camps are
not piece-meal packages. The best results are seen when there is a
full participation & dedication. A one day brief Basic Camp has also
been planned.
A. Basic Camp
:
Our basic, entry-level package is the
'Spiritual Heritage Camp'. This is a four days package, and will be
holistic in nature covering a brief introduction of various aspects of
the spiritual heritage of India, like the philosophical, spiritual,
religious, social & cultural aspects. The participant just needs to
have 'desire to know'. No prior knowledge is required. The course has
been designed in such a way that the participant will thereafter get a
relatively good 'holistic feel' of the vast spiritual heritage of
India. This will not only help the person to appreciate the customs,
places & people of India better, but may even ignite the spark within
to enter the divine realms within him or herself.
B. Advanced
Camps :
The Advanced Courses will be more specific
in nature, and will deal with one aspect of the spiritual heritage
thoroughly. These will also be short packages in Camp form, and the
duration will range from 4-6 days. As of now we have the following
packages :
1. Self-Knowledge: This package will
deal specifically with the highly beneficial & profound topic of
Self-Knowledge. Apart from lectures on the fundamentals & systems of
Self-Knowledge - as revealed in the highly revered Upanishads, there
will also be practical guidance for awakening to the truth & beauty of
one's true Self, and personal one to one discussion with Poojya Guruji
too. This is a five days package.
2. Bhakti: This deals with the
specific topic of understanding the dynamics of the process of
invoking devotion for God. This four days package will deal with all
the various aspects of this highly beneficial quality.
3. Karma Yoga: This Four Days Camp
will reveal the details of the practice of Karma Yoga, the Art of
Dynamic & Positive Living, as revealed in the Bhagwad Gita. This is a
highly revered 'Way of Living', and not only helps us to invoke our
best, but also paves the way to awaken to the transcendental truth of
our self. Karma Yoga transforms our day to day activities into a
sadhana.
4. Meditation: This will cover all
the aspects of theory & practice of the topic of Meditation. This is a
three days package.
5. Purushartha's: Purushartha's mean
the Goals of Life. Four goals of life have been identified by the
Hindu scriptures, they are Dharma, Artha, Kama & Moksha; i.e.
Conscientious Living; Art of being more productive; Capacity to make
the best of Sensual Experiences; and freedom from all sense of
limitations, by awakening to the truth of oneself. This is a four days
package.
6. Positive Values : This is a four
days package, and deals with the various 'Positive Values' or
Qualities. These qualities help bring about an integrated, holistic &
dynamic personality, so as to facilitate a person to make the best of
his or her life.
