Vedic Teachings and Discourses

The Digambar Akhara is deeply rooted in the Vedic tradition, carrying forward the sacred knowledge of the Shrutis and Smritis through a living lineage of enlightened teachers and renunciates. Through scriptural discourses, satsangs, and spiritual retreats, the Akhara imparts timeless wisdom drawn from the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Advaita Vedanta.

  • Vedanta (Non-dualism): Teachings based on the Upanishads that guide seekers toward self-realization and unity with Brahman.

  • Bhagavad Gita Pravachans: Interpretations of Krishna’s teachings with a focus on karma yoga, bhakti, and jnana.

  • Yogic Knowledge: Discourses on Raja Yoga, Hatha Yoga, and inner purification practices aligned with monastic life.

  • Dharma and Ethics: Vedic principles for righteous living (dharma), personal discipline (niyam), and service (seva).

  • Guru-Shishya Parampara: Transmission of sacred knowledge through direct interaction with realized teachers.
