In this season of Live Vedanta, we are sharing insights on Courageous Caregiving through Vibhishana Gita. Forgiving others and oneself is often the biggest struggle in caregiving. We often as we hold onto past mistakes and create more stress around it, in turn holding us back from finding joy. By starting to practice shama (quieting the mind) and accepting that creation is inherently imperfect, we are able to interact with the world around us in a much smoother, less judgemental way. By working on accepting oneself, we are then able to channel that outwards to those we care for as well.

These discourses are from our Parenting Culture community, a space for seekers striving to be better in their caregiving responsibilities through the practice of self-development. You can always join Parenting Culture live on Mondays, catch up on the previous episode, or start from the beginning of this season.

For those on the journey of self-development, Chinmaya Mission Niagara provides a community forum to listen, reflect, and contemplate. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for more updates about upcoming live workshops, courses, and more! 

Chinmaya Mission is an international non-profit organization working to transform individuals through the knowledge of Vedanta.
