Friends -

If you haven't heard about this, you are missing out on a wonderful
program. Sri Krishna Kalale (CA) is giving lectures on 
Sri Ramanujacharya's Gita Bhasyam every Sunday evening and
these lectures are transmitted all across USA by a conference
call bridge. We have had two such lectures so far and the
response has been...well...overwhelming. Here is what one
of the participants had to say:
 

The classes offered by Sri. Krishna Kalale are very informative,
well structured &  well rendered - something I look forward to
eagerly every Sunday evening.  Also the technology that is being used 
to deliver this is very impressive because of its easy accessibility 
and quality of lecture delivery. 

                                    -  Smt. Bharathi Srinivasa, NJ.


Sri Kalale who has learn the Gita Bhasyam from his acharyas has
planned this as a 20 hour lecture series. He has already covered
the introduction and first chapter in two lectures and is ready to
start talking about the various yoga-rahasyas that our beloved
empuruman, Sri Parthasarathy, has bequeathed to mankind. The 
remaining 18 lectures by Sri Kalale will cover the remaining 17
chapters and then summarize the salient points in the final
concluding lecture. Every lecture is for one hour.

So friends, don't delay any further and come and register. This
is not-for-profit and is done purely on a voluntary basis by Sri
Kalale. If you decide to register, the only charges you will
have to pay is for the conference call bridge connection. This
comes to $8.00 per hour per line + local phone bill (which will
be $3.00 if you have the AT&T / MCI 5cents/min weekend deal).
So for approx. $10 you can listen to these lecture form the
comfort of your homes and also record them if you want to
reminiscence at a later date J
