Adhyatma Vidya Mandir
Religion & Spirituality Podcas
Adhyatma Vidya Mandir is an Institute of disseminating the knowledge of the self, an Institute that perpetuates the vision of Śāṅkaraparamparā, unfolding the vision of Vedānta on how Ātmā alone is truth, the non-negatable, absolute reality, and everything other than Ātmā is Mithyā, a relative reality, dependent on Ātmā. The understanding of this vision alone leads one to the discovery of the nature of self as non-dual, the one without the second. Coming down from the lineage of this Śāṅkaraparamparā, from Lord Shiva himself to Ādi Guru Śaṅkarācāryajī, to Pujya Swami Viditatmananda Saraswatiji
