People of Note - Swami Vidyananda

Loading player...
People of Note this week has quite a different flavour. Rodney Trudgeon has invited two representatives of the monastery-like organization called Ananda Kutir Ashrama in Rondebosch East. They are Swami Vidyananda and Indian classical musician Vijay Gianpersad. They will be talking about the interfaith work they do including the concept of integral Yoga. And Vijay Gianpersad will select Indian classical music and introduce it for us. It all promises to be quite fascinating.
