We are happy to announce Vijaya's fifth visit to Finland in June 2020. He will be teaching in Helsinki as well as in the countryside
location close to Perniö, Salo.
His strong yet gentle presence, in-depth asana classes, knowledge of the shastra and the profound chanting classes are much revered and sought after.
He will teach two asana classes and a lecture in
Helsinki and a special one week mid summer retreat in Särkisalo (Klippula leirikeskus), 40km from Salo and
2h drive from Helsinki.
In the retreat we have the opportunity to study Buddhacharitam , an epic poem written by Ashvaghosa in 2nd century about Buddha's life and a spiritual transformation. Vijaya will choose one chapter or some of the verses of this text to share with us, verses which have touched him and what he finds inspirational and important. Like Arjuna in the battle field in Bhagavad Gita, so also Buddha was agitated by the suffering in the world and confused about his duty. Their examples and chosen paths will give us guidance in our lives as well.
