Ten years ago, when in Cambridge MA, I had a chance to take courses at the Cambridge Centre for Adult Education (Ten years ago, when in Cambridge MA, I had a chance to take courses at the Cambridge Centre for Adult Education (https://www.ccae.org), where so many interesting courses were taught. And in the same manner as Amrita and I started Kitabkhana (after seeing wonderful bookstores all over the world), We have now started the Somaiya Centre for Lifelong Learning.
In the past few weeks, we have started a course on Yoga, Tai Chi, Spoken Sanskrit, the Upanishads, A study trip to Patan and Modhera, Sailing, Photography, Spanish Literature, and much more. In fact, Justice SriKrishna delivered the last lecture on the course on the Upanishads. What a treat, and what an honour.
I am myself taking a course in spoken Sanskrit. My sister and nephew are also taking the course. Professor Pendse is wonderful. Really enjoying the course. I hope I can speak Sanskrit fluently some day. What a language!!
The Somaiya Centre for Lifelong Learning is located on the second floor of Somaiya Bhavan, Fort, Mumbai. Above Kitabkhana.
