Invitation to join the new free one day workshop – Jnana Vasantha 6: Clarity of Purpose

Objectives: Catapult the art of living to the next level of maturity where the “clarity” and “purpose” dance together as “clarity of purpose” and “purpose of clarity”!

The last Jnana Vasantha workshop was in January 2016, and was focused on new year planning, but obviously it was much more than that.  Each JnanaVasantha workshop is a milestone in the journey towards maturity of mine, and the participants help by their presence, hence the workshop needs to be free for them.

The journey of Jnana Vasantha workshops started in 2011, with the initial aim to mentor teenagers, primary target among them were my teenage daughters.  But the journey brought a level of clarity soon that the key student was myself and the rest are there for the collateral benefits/damages. From Jnana Vasantha 2 onwards, I had a sense of humility to pair with my usual arrogance that it was the last workshop in the series as I would have run out of topics to share. But amazingly, the nature is submitting me through an unpredictable cycle of creative menstruation to which I need to give a shape of Jnana Vasantha workshop. The development and the occurrence of the workshop ultimately impregnates me for the next milestone of the journey towards new maturities, producing new babies of creativity (and countless bastards not much to talk about).

The inspiration for Jnana Vasantha 6 was bolted to me through the key concept handed over to me through an early morning  dream during mid Dec 2017, I had to intuitively work out the concept and design of the entire workshop while laying on the bed as it was difficult to go back to sleep again that morning.

Now I muster the resolve and courage to shape up a one day workshop event, again at our home.  This time, I like to give more time and space for the participants to express, especially through the second half of the workshop.  We can accommodate up to 40 participants in our space, but may limit the participation to 20, usually no more than 10 sign up to this ordeal which I consider as the minimum strength this workshop needs. The three other souls in our home have already committed their co-operation to participate, I hope, I do not need to beg for a minimum of seven more participants.

This workshop definitely deals with the higher concepts of reality around our being and our environment. It will leverage the concepts already unveiled through the last 5 Jnana Vasantha workshops and builds into the new topic(s).  

The workshop is designed to be as follows:

                Part 1: Morning Sessions (9.30 am – 1 pm)

                                Session 1 (9.30 am -10.30 am): Review of all key relevant topics from the past workshops

                                Exhaustion/Tea Break: (10.30 am – 10.45 am)

                                Session 2: (10.45 am – 11.45 am) Clarity of Purpose – the key theme of this workshop

                                Exhaustion/Tea Break: (11.45 – 12 noon)

        Session 3:  (12 noon - 1 pm - Auxiliary new topics: e.g. The three way reality anchor: Individual, institutions and the Collective)

    Part 2: Lunch Break (1 pm – 2 pm)

                Pot luck optional and not mandatory, otherwise simple catered staple food, chaotic buffet style

                Escape to the terrace garden upstairs for those who like this option       

    Part 3: Afternoon Session (2 pm – 5.30 pm)

                Session 1: (2pm – 3 pm) Relevance of the new topics in the individual life of each participant: Meditative and Interactive

                Exhaustion/Tea Break: (3 pm – 3.15 pm)

                Session 2: (3.15 pm – 4.15 pm) Practice session to apply the new topics in the individual life of each participant towards clarity, purpose, vision, strategy  and plans

                Exhaustion/Tea Break: (4.15 pm – 4.30pm)         

Session 3: Conclusions & Wrap up, both at the level of individual and the workshop as a whole, next steps etc.

     Part 4: Optional Informal hang out (5.30 pm – 7pm) – High energy burst will need time to settle down, give time to settle down for self and the other participants who like to and can afford to; soak in the settle down process with more snacks and beverages and the thoughts /feelings they might or might not further invoke! I definitely will aim for the serials of snacks weaved together with serials of beverages!

Separate groups will be created both in FB and Whatsapp for the potential participants to engage in the development and planning of this workshop. The groups may or may not remain relevant beyond the workshop. The groups are designed with revolving doors, so one need not hesitate to come in and get out irrespective of participation. All further communications related to the workshop planning will be restricted to these groups.

Potential target dates to conduct the workshop: Sunday January 21 2018 or Friday January 26 2018 the Republic Day or Sunday January 28 2018. The day will be decided by January 14 2018 per the most convenient choice of potential participants.
