In late December, the School of Bhakti hosted Gita 2099 with His Holiness S.B. Keshava Swami. From 6.30pm, over 650 devotees, families, friends, and community guests gathered to explore how the Bhagavad-Gita can guide us through the future.

Before the programme, Maharaj warmly met the 2025 Gita Life students, adults and children alike, including those who had travelled from as far as Poland. He presented certificates, and a group photo marked a meaningful moment for many.

The evening opened with an audio-visual vision of the future—screens everywhere, machines and robots shaping daily life—posing a thought-provoking question: are we becoming more human, or more managed? Maharaj returned the audience to the Gita’s timeless truth that the real battleground is always the heart. Our pursuit of security, love, meaning, and belonging in the material world reflects the soul’s deeper longing for the spiritual world, where happiness truly grows.

During the Q&A, Maharaj offered practical guidance: protect your consciousness, maintain strong daily habits of hearing and chanting, and ensure technology remains a servant, not a master.

Krishna Kirtan Das, Head of the School of Bhakti, guided the evening as MC and shared upcoming plans. The course table stayed busy, with many signing up for 2026 programmes, including the flagship 10-week Gita Life course.

As the evening concluded, many stayed to speak with Maharaj, expressing gratitude for the volunteers and leaving with renewed determination to keep Krishna at the centre, whatever 2099 may bring.

Gita 2099 was more than a seminar—it was a celebration of community, learning, and hope. With inspiring programmes planned for 2026, the School of Bhakti warmly invites seekers at every stage to continue the journey in timeless wisdom.
