Friends Event: Hindu Perspective on Success and Failure

Leicester Friends Event
Saturday, 6 September 2014 – 6:30pm to 9:00pm

Belgrave Neighbourhood Centre 

Rothley Street, Leicester LE4 6LF

A talk by by Anuradha Dooney of the OCHS.

In our world we see success on the X-Factor and on talent shows, we see success in industry, in banking, in sport, and in schools. But how do we measure success? Who has defined success for us? Is it to do with social acceptance? national agreement? moral standards? wealth generation, or fame? In this talk we dip into ancient texts to see if we can find different measures of success and failure to reflect on, to inspire thoughtful discussion, and even to challenge or norms.
