SUMMARY:2025 Family Vedanta Course 2
DESCRIPTION:In-Person Only (no live streaming) \nTOPICS and TEACHERS: \n\nSadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtananda\nIn the Bhagavad Gita\, Lord Krsna presents two types of sadhana\, two lifestyles dedicated to gaining self-knowledge\, depending upon the individual’s mindset and maturity. The two choices are karma-yoga\, a life of action and engagement while maintaining a proper attitude\, and jñana-yoga\, a life of withdrawal and contemplation. Swamiji will unfold the qualifications and implications of each lifestyle\, and show how each can help one to gain the desired goal of moksa. These classes will not be recorded or live-streamed.\n\nVedanta-sara\, topics 1 – 8 with Swami Muktatmananda\nThe text known as Vedanta-sara\, authored by Sri Sadãnanda Yogindra Sarasvati\, is a very popular introductory text of Vedanta.\nIn its six chapters\, it covers all the main aspects of the teaching\, including the qualifications of a student\, the nature of superimposition and its removal\, the views of competing schools of thought\, the steps to self-realization\, and the characteristics of jivan-mukti\, liberation while living.\nSwamiji will begin the text in this course with the first eight topics.\n\n\nVedanta-sara Text\nREGISTRATION:\nFor in-person participation\, register online HERE.\nor write to avg.karthikr@gmail.com \nThis course will not be available online. \nSCHEDULE: \nAll Times Are Eastern Time ET (UTC-4) \nSaturday\, August 2\, 2025\n8:00-8:15pm Orientation with Karthik Ramagopal\n8:15-9:00pm Satsang Q&A \nSunday\, August 3\n8:30-9:30 am Sadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtanandaji\n4:00-5:00 pm Vedanta-sara with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n5:30-6:30pm Sadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtanandaji \nMonday-Thursday\, August 4 – 7\n9:15-10:15am Sadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtanandaji\n11:15am-12:15pm Vedanta-sara with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n5:30-6:30pm Sadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtanandaji\n8:00-9:00pm Satsang Q&A (Monday and Tuesday only)\n8:00-9:00pm THURSDAY ONLY: Youth Presentation Program \nFriday\, August 8\n9:15-10:15am Vedanta-sara with Swami Muktatmanandaji\n11:00am-12:00pm Sadhana-dvayam with Swami Sakshatkrtanandaji\n12:00pm Gurudakshina
