Dialogues on Living

Date: May 27-29, 2016 (Fri. evening to Sun. afternoon)

Facilitator:Harshad Parekh

Harshad obtained a PhD in Electrical Engineering and then came across the teachings of Krishnamurti. This created a profound shift in his life. He left his professional work in Canada for the opportunity to teach in various Krishnamurti schools in India for almost 30 years. Since his retirement in 2007 he continues visiting these schools and holding dialogues with students and adults.

This is an opportunity to be with someone deeply affected by the teachings of Krishnamurti. Harshad is passionate about sharing his understanding and insights about their relevance to daily living. He does this in a simple, direct and engaging way that makes them readily accessible to anyone truly interested in self-awareness and seeing things directly as they are.

In this retreat he will be hosting dialogues on Awareness and related themes, such as Relationship, Love, Meditation and Freedom. The weekend will also include readings, videos and meditative nature walks.

Harshad is a visiting guest at the Centre during the months of April and May and is also open to meeting personally with anyone deeply interested in exploring fundamental issues of living.
