Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda

Swamy Chinmayananda ji is the world renowned spiritual master of 20th century, who had touched upon the lives of millions across the globe with his powerful teachings. He worked non-stop to carry forward the mission of the Hindu Rishi parampara to common people and thus inspiring them, providing them with a vision and a direction, as well as a great platform for everyone to work for revival of Hindu culture.

Through the Mission, Chinmayananda spearheaded a global Hindu spiritual and cultural renaissance that popularised these spiritual texts and values, teaching them in English all across India and abroad.

Insights From Mandukya Karika

Mandukya Upanishad is the shortest of all the Upanishads which describes in just 12 verses the sacred syllable Om; presents the theory of four states of consciousness; and asserts that Om is Brahman – and that Brahman is this Atma. Sri. Gaudapadacharya has written a detailed Karika (commentary) on this Upanishad consisting of four Prakaranas.

In this Weekend with Wisdom, Swami Brahmavidananda will be sharing insights from Mandukya Karika of Gaudapadacharya on a number of topics including Atma as Avasthatraya-Sakshi, Turiya as Atma Svaroopa and Mithyatvam of the Jagat.

धर्म ज्ञान और मोक्ष (Hindi Talk)

Through his lectures titled ‘धर्म ज्ञान और मोक्ष’, Dr. Sharma aims to explore what Dharma is, and how Jñāna is critically essential to the performance of Dharma even at the very basic level. He further aims to explore how Darśanaśāstra assists Dharmaśāstra for that purpose. Mokṣa being the highest goal of human pursuit in Sanātana Dharma, Dr. Sharma shall explore how the performance of Dharma creates an environment which promotes the attainment of Jñāna and subsequently of Mokṣa.
