Usually defined as happiness (authentic vs. temporary) and commonly known through the Yoga Sutra, the term ‘sukha’ सुख has various meanings upon examining its roots. Su = “good, fine”. Kha = “state”. So a more literal translation of sukha is “Good State”. But kha can also mean “space”, so su-kha can signify “happy space” or “good space”.
**What is the Ayurvedic approach and perspectives on establishing Sukha/good space in one’s body, mind, spirit, soul through daily habits/living?
**What is the role of ghee in establishing sukham?
In this session, Dr. Ramadas will explore these questions through one of the key causative factors of imbalances and dis-eases - Pragyaparadha.
‘Pragya’ means intelligence or wisdom and ‘Aparadha’ means an offense. Thus, pragyaparadha means an offense against wisdom.
When a person’s dhi धी (ability to comprehend), dhriti धृति (controlling power), and smriti स्मृति (power to recall memories) get impaired, one acts against one's own best interests of wellbeing and living highest potential.
Sukha / “good space” (an emptiness beyond form) - which helps to create contentment and healing, where harmony becomes a matter of our perspective and is no longer dependent on outer circumstances alone - is disrupted by pragyaparadha
Join us in this soulful conversation on the role of ghee in inner and outer Sukham.
