A traditional Advaita Vedānta teaching initiative
Who We are
Ārsha Vidyā Paramparā is a non-profit initiative dedicated to the teaching of Advaita Vedānta in a traditional and structured manner. The organisation makes available ongoing classes and study opportunities for those who wish to pursue Vedānta in a consistent and systematic way.
The teaching lineage
The teaching follows the Advaita Vedānta sampradāya originating from Bhagavān Vyāsa and Ādi Śaṅkara. It is based on the methodology (prakriyā) preserved in the tradition and as unfolded by Pujya Swami Dayananda Saraswati.
The focus is on maintaining fidelity to the teaching method, rather than presenting individual interpretations.
The teacher
The classes are conducted by Swami Sarvananda Saraswati, a traditional teacher of Advaita Vedānta. The teaching is based on a committed study of the śāstra within the lineage, and is presented in a systematic and consistent format suitable for long-term learning.
What is being conducted
• Regular online classes on Bhagavad Gītā, Upaniṣads, and related texts
• Structured progression across texts rather than isolated topics
• Opportunities for students to raise and clarify doubts
• Ongoing development of teaching material and study resources
