SUMMARY:Introduction to Living Philosophy - May 2020 batch (Mondays\, Indiranagar)
DESCRIPTION:Living Philosophy\nDiscover\, Awaken\, Transform\nLiving Philosophy is a 16-week foundation course in Practical Philosophy that brings the wisdom of ancient Eastern and Western philosophies to inspire us and help us lead more harmonious lives in today’s times.  \nDown the ages\, human beings have pursued a life of meaning\, purposefulness\, balance and fulfilment. Philosophy was traditionally meant to be a practical means for this universal quest\, a way of life with meaning. When Philosophy is practical\, it is educational\, helping us to know ourselves and to improve ourselves.  \nThrough these 16 sessions (1 session of 2 hours per week)\, the Living Philosophy course touches different practical\, universal and timeless concepts of life from the wisdom of cultures and civilizations of the ancient world\, with the perspective of how these can become practical tools to make a profound\, lasting difference in our lives today.  \nThe Living Philosophy journey traverses three sections: \nKnow Thyself \nStarting with human nature – to understand ourselves and the means to give an expression to our best human potential. How can we deal effectively with change and uncertainty in our lives? Perspectives from the philosophies of ancient India\, Greece\, Tibet\, Rome\, Egypt and China about Human nature\, happiness and freedom. \nHuman Relationships and Society \nThe quality of our life depends greatly on the quality of our relationships. What can we learn from cultures like ancient Greece that will help us develop deeper relationships\, understand the fabric of society and find our place in it? Key topics include principles of Ethical Leadership\, Justice and Education. \nEvolution of Humanity: What is our future? \nThe zoomed out picture: As humanity\, where have we come from\, where are we going\, and what is the role of the individual in the larger scheme of life? Wisdom from eclectic philosophical sources to understand what it means to be human\, through the concept of evolution of consciousness. Ecology as a key to Harmony: harmonising our actions in accordance with nature. \nYou may view the complete Syllabus of the Living Philosophy course here. http://old.acropolis.org.in/living-philosophy-syllabus-2/ \nThe Sessions of the course include lectures and active practical exercises to enable introspection and reflection\, making the teachings practical and applicable to contemporary living.

SUMMARY:The Art of Observation
DESCRIPTION:This ‘Lecture & Guided Practice’ at the  Sublime Gallery\, UB city\, is in celebration of the ‘International Day of Philosophy 2019‘ \nArt is an expression of beauty\, a bridge for the human being in the concrete existence to touch the abstract\, the sublime. This Talk combines Philosophy and Photography to develop an orientation to look at dimensions that we perhaps didn’t consider before. Often\, what is most important is between the lines\, beyond the apparent. To be able to metaphorically read between the lines\, requires us to develop our observation. It is much more than just to see; it is to be able to look into the depths and perceive the cause of what is seen\, allowing it to touch and change us. \nThrough the medium of photography and exposure to the works of various international photographers including Barbara Morgan\, Edward Steichen\, Pierre Poulain and Henri Cartier-Bresson\, the speaker will present a method for observation and evaluation of art – and indeed\, life itself. \n– – –\nPresented by New Acropolis (India) in partnership with Sublime Galleria at Art Bengaluru 2019.\nSaturday\, 16th November  6:30 to 8:30 PM | Location: Sublime Galleria\, UB city\n– – –\nLecture and Guided Exercise| Free Entry | Limited Seat – first come basis | Right to Admission Reserved | Please do reach early as doors close at start |

SUMMARY:Paradoxes - Exhibition of photographs by Pierre Poulain
DESCRIPTION:‘Paradoxes’ – Exhibition of photographs by philosopher and renowned international photographer Pierre Poulain. This is presented by New Acropolis (India) in partnership with Sublime Galleria at Art Bengaluru 2019. \n“When one looks at a picture\, the mind recognizes the objects and people in it. But the true meaning of a picture is beyond the reality of what one sees. The true meaning of a photograph is the sentiment behind it.” \nAccording to the traditional and philosophical conception\, Art is always a manifestation of the essential\,  the essence of  Being which necessarily requires an expression to be perceptible. \nThe photographs aim to capture a “paradoxical tension”\, by a contrast of forms\, of situations\, of light\, or of feeling. In photography\, the paradox is always dynamic – it appears suddenly in a gaze\, in a ray of light which illuminates a background\, or in the movement of a person or object which enters the field of the lens. \nFor Pierre Poulain\, photography is more of a philosophical and spiritual journey. Based in Israel\, Pierre’s passion for street photography is supported by his strong views in the various philosophies of life. In 1986\, he founded the centres of New Acropolis in Israel. \nPierre Poulain’s latest exhibition titled ‘Photosophy’ will be presented in Bangalore next year.
