6 day course of Sankhya consists of 6 one-hour lectures and two Q & A sessions. It also includes a Powerpoint presentation.
Sankhya is the oldest school of Hindu philosophy and the first attempt to harmonize the Vedic philosophy through reason. It is also the first systemic account of the process of cosmic evolution.
It is a natural tendency of the senses to go for sense objects. Every sense has got its raga (like) and dvesha (dislike). You don’t even need intelligence for that. The sense itself is designed for that. The sense becomes attracted or repelled, and then whether you act on it or not has to do with your intelligence. Restraint is done with intelligence, which is very difficult to do because you are not trained for that. But if Bhakti is there, then restraint comes naturally.
