INTERNATIONAL YOUTH CONFERENCE 2019
The Theosophical Society, Adyar, Chennai
Topic: “Meditation and Human Re-generation”
The 3-day International Youth Conference, from 27
th Dec to 29th Dec, was successfully
completed with a total of 35 participants from different parts of India and the world. The main
topics covered in the session related to Human Re-generation and Meditation, which were
divided into 4 sessions each day. The sessions included a mixture of both theory and practical
aspects.
The participants were randomly divided into 4 groups and at the end of every session, relevant
questions were put forward to the groups. Each group had to internally discuss, summarise and
get back to present their views on the topic of discussion. Each theory session was followed up
with a practical class, which included various types of meditation, which helped participants link
back to what they had understood during the theory sessions.
The topics that were touched upon are as follows:

  • Introduction to human re-generation and its importance to the present generation
  • Meditation overview, types of meditation, aids to meditation
  • Character building aspect of meditation, esoteric view on meditation
  • Distortions and illusions, conscious living; when does the real progress start?
  • Meditation: the scientific view
    It was a very interactive session, where everybody contributed with great interest. All the
    sessions were held at Blavatsky Bungalow, which was a great place and people really enjoyed
    the atmosphere. Overall, the feedback from all participants was very positive, with just a few
    points to improve upon, which we have taken into account and will try to implement them in
    future conferences.
