Next Semester

Dates to Be Announced - Four Points Covered in this eCourse

#1 - Matter & Spirit - The first step in spiritual life is to realize one's identity as an eternal spirit soul, and not the temporary material body. The material body is made of matter and is temporary. One day it will die. All matter is temporary. It is created, manifests for some time, dwindles, and then dissipates.

Spirit, on the other hand, is the exact opposite. It never grows old, decays, or dies. Spirit animates the material body — making it appear alive — but when the spirit soul leaves the body, that is called death. Without a soul, the material body is just a lump of matter.

Thus, the difference between matter and spirit is the first topic explained in our eCourse.

#2 - Reincarnation - Each individual spirit soul is an eternal being, and according to one's actions in life various results occur. The science of how the soul transmigrates from one body to another is a great mystery to common men, but Vedic texts explain very clearly and easily how this natural process works.

#3 - Yoga - When one realizes he or she is actually a spiritual being and not the material body, then one must engage in some process to awaken the spiritual self. Practices to reawaken one's spiritual awareness are called yoga. Conditioned souls in this material world identify themselves as the material body: "I am a man, or woman. I am American, or Indian, etc. I am white or black, etc." These are false concepts, as explained in #1. We are not these bodies, but eternal spiritual souls. There are many kinds of yoga meant to enhance spiritual progress, and several are outlined in this eCourse.

#4 - Spiritual Vegetarian -  Every living being in this world is a spirit soul in a material body. As explained in #1 a material body without a spirit soul is a dead body. Thus, even cats, dogs, trees, plants, insects, birds, fish, etc.— in fact everything that lives — is a spirit soul inhabiting a particular body. Humans are not required to kill animals to live, and when they do, they create "bad karma" for they must suffer the reactions to such killing in the future. How to live without killing animals, and how to eat without creating karma is also explained scientifically in our eCourse.

The conclusion is that participating in this two week eCourse can change one's future for the better. We teach how to become aware of one's eternal spiritual nature, free from anxieties and frustrations, and how to enjoy a natural, spiritual journey back to the eternal Spiritual Sky.

Teachers for the course are Dhruva Maharaja dasa and Samapriya dasi, both initiated disciples of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada who have been practicing bhakti-yoga for the last 40 years.
