Venkataraman 301 983 8870 Swami Dayananda Saraswati: Sri Swami Dayananda Saraswati is an eminent scholar and an outstanding teacher of the Brahma Vidya, the truth revealed by the Upanishads at the end of the Veda. He belongs to a lineage of traditional teachers who help students to understand Vedanta bycreating a proper context to convey complex ideas in simple terms. Swami Dayananda Saraswati is not a preacher giving sermons, nor is he a missionary trying to spread a particular belief. Also, he is nota mystic promising subjective experiences. Through his teaching Swamiji helps every student to see the truth revealed by the Upanishads as a verifiable fact. He combines his deep scholarship and vivid communication skills with his pragmatic view of society. This is evident in the way he blends in the different situations of life into his teachings and discussions. Swami Dayananda Saraswati has been teaching Vedanta for over thirty five years. He has conducted a number of three year courses in Vedanta both in India and the US. He established Arsha Vidya Gurukulam at Saylorsburg in 1986, where he conducted a three year course from January 1987 to December 1989. In 1990, he established a Gurukulam at Anaikatti near Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu, India. Herecently completed a three year course there. Swamiji's most significant contribution has been the teachers he has created. All of them follow his teaching tradition and continue to create more teachers in the same way. While some of his students teach at Saylorsburg and Anaikatti gurukulams, a number of them conduct classes all over the world. Swami Dayananda Saraswati stays at the Gurukulam during summer when he teaches in the family camps and holds evening satsangs(discussion forums). He also conducts a holiday camp in December.
