Vedanta Mission Online Courses on Gita and Tattva Bodha

[Guest guest]

Namaste:

 

The online courses offered by the Vedanta Mission may be useful for those who

want to get a good background on Advaita Vedanta Philosophy. The Mission

follows the Gurukula spirit and will not charge any fee for enrollment. But

'Gurudakshna' is also the tradition and should be respected by the students

who take such courses. It is nice to see the adoption of this ancient system

of free education to the students who want to enhance their knowledge. The

students who enroll in such systems have the responsibility to repay the

teacher within their means.

The times have changed. Technology has made the world so small. While sitting

in our Ashram here in India we are interacting with so many people all over

the world. Through this section we

plan to turn the world into a big class room, where anyone at any place & time

can access some fundamental lessons on Vedanta and get insights into this

great, ancient & redeeming wisdom of India.

 

Two Courses available :

 

At present we are presenting two Lessons Courses.

1. Bhagwad Gita Course(click)

2. Tattva Bodha Course. (click)

 

There are four parts in each of these courses. Each part will have ten

lessons. At the end of every lesson we have some questions. The first lesson

of the first part of both the courses will be freely available to everyone,

but second lesson onward will be available only to those who have

satisfactorily answered the questions of the earlier lessons. Once we recieve

the answers and

are satisfied with the understanding of the student, then a password for

accessing the subsequent lesson will be e-mailed to the person individually.

We want only the serious & sincere ones to

access subsequent lessons, because they alone will benefit properly.

 

1. Bhagwad Gita Lesson Course :

 

Gita needs no introduction. In brief we can say that whoever has not read

Srimad Bhagwad Gita has missed something great in life. It is a must-read for

anyone who wants to understand life fully

& live it thoroughly. It is the essence of entire Vedic vision, and transcends

all sectarian thoughts. It reveals the timeless truths of life, and also

reveals a way to live a full & holistic life, wherein we

give justice to not only what is worldly but also that which is beyond. Click

on ‘details' to see the subject matter of the various Parts & Lessons of this

special Course written for you all by Poojya

Guruji. Details.

 

2. Tattva Bodha Lesson Course :

 

Tattva Bodha is a small introductory text book of Vedanta philosophy. It

introduces to us the fundamentals of the philosophy of Vedanta. The title

means: ‘Knowledge of Truth'. The text is

supposed to be written by Sri Adi Sankara, and is indeed a stepping stone to

enter the divine portals of Vedanta. Please click on ‘details' for getting a

birds eye view of each Part & Lesson of the course.

 

3. Cost of the Course :

 

We follow the spirit of Gurukula type of education in all our Courses &

Classes. In this system, the student is given free education, but as & when he

finishes a particular Part of the Course

he is asked to donate any amount to the Trust as per his capacity &

disposition. This amount is paid to the Trust account which manages the

activities. Please click on the Support link (side

column), also see the Q&A's on the Mission Index Page for further details.

Thanks for posting this useful link. Students and educators of

Vedanta philosophy should find this site very useful. I also liked

the progressive, test-based approach that opens up lessons only after

the student has successively passed the test for the previous lesson.

 

Another interesting web-site with a lot of useful vedantic content

is :

http://www.yogamalika.org/newweb/yogahome.html

 

If you click on listening room, you can listen to audio lectures in

english (some in tamil as well). The series of 16 audio lectures on

Vedanta (based on Sankara's Tattva Bodha) should be especially useful

to any student as there is clear explanation of terminology and

concepts.
