About
Vedanta Institute

Overview

Vedanta Institute is a non-profit organisation. Our service to the community focuses on the dissemination of Vedanta via the following avenues: weekly classes, youth programmes, talks, retreats and corporate workshops. The daily study of Vedanta develops the human intellect which is the capacity to think, reason and judge before acting. A developed intellect restores peace and happiness within the individual.

The work of our trust is inspired by A. Parthasarathy or Swamiji, as he is affectionately known. A. Parthasarathy is the pre-eminent philosopher and author. In the course of six decades of selfless service to humanity. Swamiji’s outstanding contribution has been to infuse the eternal wisdom of Vedanta into modern life for peaceful and productive living. In 1988 he founded the Vedanta Academy wherein he imparts Vedanta knowledge to young students from all over the world.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

What People Are Saying

I have attended a series of Vedanta classes and have read a number of Swami Parthasarathy’s books. I have found the Vedanta philosophy extremely useful in managing stress levels and growing my business. It has enabled me to be an effective leader while being a guiding force for me in mentoring the entrepreneurs of the start-ups that I have invested in. All in all, it has made the process of living life a lot more meaningful and fulfilling.

I have been a student of the Vedanta course for 2 years and as an expat living in Asia it has been one of the greatest gifts. The course is very well structured, gradually building up the material from easy to grasp ideas leading into a more complex philosophy step by step. Another benefit of the course is how it teaches you to do constant self reflection and self improvement which becomes a life saver along the way. I really believe this subject should be taught to everyone no matter your age, background, religion as this knowledge is universal and applicable to all of our lives.

I find the teachings of Vedanta very scientific and methodological. It enables me to practice self control and discipline with the knowledge of an exact science. This has brought about immense happiness and joy in my life. Looking for higher ideals and higher purposes when I do things, it has automatically attracted abundance and peace in my life, without me even asking for it.
