November 2nd through December 28th, 2025, we will explore Devi Bhagavatam, filled with opportunities for Self-discovery. The prerequisite for this unit is being a Vedic meditator. (If you'd like to join but have not yet received your practice, please feel free to email me directly.)
To help support your discovery of the splendor and nuances of the Devi Purana, each week you will be provided with an e-book filled with:
Illustrations
Character descriptions
Points to Ponder: ideas, challenges, and questions to consider as you are reading
Summary of each chapter
What happens during our live calls?
During our 1 hour calls we will discuss the assigned reading. Then:
The group is presented with challenges
We engage in show and tell
We uncover the gems of meaning together while enjoying the events in the story
We apply what we discover to our own personal experience
What if I miss a live call?
A day or two after each Zoom meeting you'll receive an email with the link to the recorded meeting (available for a limited time). You also receive:
Brief notes on key takeaways, plus
Any quotes, book recommendations, images, new challenges or anything else relevant that comes up during our session.
How it Works
1. Get yourself a copy of Devi: The Devi Bhagavatam Retold by Ramesh Menon
2. Beginning a week before our first meeting, you will be sent a link to our private password-protected BOX account. In it you'll find the reading assignment for that week, and all support materials. Weekly reading is no more than 80 pages (and often it's quite a bit less).
3. On 9 Sundays from November 2nd through December 28th, we'll meet over Zoom for an hour for a lively discussion.
4. A day or two after each Zoom meeting you'll receive an email with the link to the recorded meeting (for a limited time), plus some key takeaways and notes from the session.
