Join us for a profound Dharma Dialogues presentation with Sri Sashibushan Mocherla, also known as Sri Lalithanada Natha, CEO and Founder of Siddhashram of North America — Shangri-La. Drawing from his deep commitment to Sanātana Dharma, Vedic learning, meditation, and sacred living, he will share some of the Mahābhārata’s most fascinating lessons and why they remain urgently relevant today.

Through its unforgettable characters and timeless dilemmas, the Mahābhārata teaches us how to recognize dharma in the midst of confusion, how to act with courage when choices are difficult, and how inner clarity becomes essential when the world around us is unstable.

A powerful conversation for anyone seeking wisdom, discernment, and a deeper understanding of dharma in our time.
