| Podcast |
| Worldwide Meeting - November 15, 2008 I have come to see that there is little practical usefulness in approaching the issue of human suffering from the standpoint of the traditional, ancient teachings about the nature of reality, and our relationship to it, and about what we can do to actually reap the fruits of the promise that life seems to hold for us. These teachings, beautiful, wondrous and powerful as they may be, have proven to hold little or no help for us in these matters. |

| Our work is to teach the method of the vichara (self-inquiry) to all who will receive it. The only problem anywhere to be found is the false belief that you are at the mercy of your life, and the only solution is the truth, which is everywhere and always present and self-evident. Ridding oneself of the false is as easy as repeatedly tasting the truth of being here, unmovingly, unchangingly here. This repeated looking directly at oneself is the infallible method of the vichara. Although our meetings are free of charge, they are certainly not free of cost. The money needed for this work must come entirely from the generosity and compassion of those who, like us, have seen for themselves the immense worth of spreading this good news to all humanity. Please help provide financial support for the work of making this method more widely available in the world by making a donation or a monthly pledge in any amount now. All donations to the River Ganga Foundation are fully tax-deductible. |
