Bhakti Beirut

Bhakti Beirut 🇱🇧Welcoming you to experience the wisdom and power of bhakti through musical mantra meditation, spiri By practicing Bhakti, we can reawaken this connection.

What is bhakti

Bhakti emphasizes that at our core we are all spirit souls that are looking for the greatest source of pleasure: to love and to be loved. When our soul can reconnect to that greatest source of love – the Divine, then we can experience true satisfaction and fulfillment. The main practices of bhakti are kirtan (mantra meditation), study, personal practice, service, association, and f

ood. Who are we? We are a small but enthusiastic community of bhakti yogis, living here in Beirut, Lebanon since 2010. After spending eight years gathering for kirtans in our homes and various locations around the country, we finally settled into our own cozy little space in Zalka. Our center is a place where we gather together to support, encourage, and inspire each other along this uplifting path of bhakti. All are welcome, whether you are new, curious, inquisitive, or a seasoned practitioner. We have kirtans, philosophy discussions, books, meditations, food, and most importantly a warm welcome for anyone who steps inside

Happy Gita Jayanti! The Bhagavad-gita’s 5 topics explained

1) Who Am I? → Soul (atma)
2) Where am I? → Material World (prakrti)
3) What am I doing here? → Activities (karma)
4) How long am I here? → Time (kala)
5) Is there something beyond? → God (Isvara)

Gita Jayanti is the day of the advent of the Bhagavad-gita, when Krishna shared this timeless knowledge with Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra more than 5000 years ago. This is ancient wisdom, ever relevant!

Self realization as looking deeper into the autostereogram

When trying to see the image in a autostereogram - one person is saying you have to look at it like this. And then someone else is like, no, you have to look at it like this. It's like you're trying to adjust your vision so that you can see what's there that you haven't been able to see before.
And that's kind of what happens with this kind of spiritual knowledge transformation.
Prahlad (from the text Srimad Bhagavatam), in a sense, he's saying:
"Keep looking at reality. You're looking at your body, you're looking at everything around you and you're thinking, you are that body and you're going to be happy by connecting your body with the things that are around it. Keep looking. Look, hear this, and try to see it. Try to see these six transformations of the body (birth, existence, growth, transformation, dwindling, death), try to see how that comes and goes and we remain the same. Try to see it. Ultimately, you have to try to feel it and you keep staring until it comes out. And that's called self-realization.

From the podcast "Wisdom of the Sages", episodes 1283: Figuring out life begins with "I'm not my body"

(Discussion of verse 7.7.18 from Srimad Bhagavatam)
