About How to have joyful, meaningful and harmonious relationships

Life involves relating to people. In relating, we often experience conflicts. These conflicts cannot be wished away or dismissed as they bother us. I experience happiness and connectedness with the other only when I am in harmony in my relationships. How can I be in harmony with the other who is so different from me? The

timeless wisdom

of the

ancient masters

from India show us the way forward for

harmonious living

that we have assimilated well.

The journey of the course is a simple, yet profound journey of small yet firm steps to discovering that

you are the light of dharma and how you can illumine your life and the life of others with your joy and wisdom.
