The Renaissance of Sanatana Dharma In the Light of Sri Aurobindo – Part 3
$200.00HSF3103 – (C.P.H.S – Elective Course) More than any one single figure, Sri Aurobindo prophesied that the renaissance of Sanatana Dharma was necessary for all of humanity. It is this Sanatana Dharma which has kept Adhyatma as its core foundation, insisting on Truth alone, seeking peace, harmony, beauty, perfection, purity, self-knowledge, oneness and unity, light and delight, and does not reject any aspect of life.
This three-quarter course sequence is an attempt to revisit the principles, core teachings, the Shastras, practices, the past, present, and future of Sanatana Dharma in the light of Sri Aurobindo. We will also examine the state of the renaissance of Sanatana Dharma, current day misunderstandings, misrepresentations, and challenges and revisit the insights of the ancient seers and sages – all through the vision of Sri Aurobindo.

Understanding the Vedas

Understanding the Vedas
$300.00TAT3205 – (CPHS – Elective) The Vedas are known as the oldest books of wisdom of the world. They are the source texts of Sanatana Dharma (SD) practiced by the Hindus all over the world. Although the Vedas are revered, they are no longer studied or properly understood by most of the followers of Sanatana Dharma. Instead, the conventional viewpoint of the recent past projects the Vedas as texts that are useful only for karmas (actions) and rituals and therefore generally devoid of any wisdom.
This course will discuss both the ‘action’ and the ‘wisdom’ aspects of the Vedas. The course will show that the Vedas want to aid all people to achieve success in their lives. By spiritualizing their lives all can rise in consciousness levels and achieve greater levels of perfection in all their endeavors.
This course will also enable students to integrate Chanting of a few Veda mantras in their lives to invite the devas (cosmic energies) to their inner being and strengthen their psychological powers.
