Arsha Vidya Center

Arsha Vidya Center has been formed to introduce, promote and establish study of Vedanta for students and seekers in the San Francisco Bay Area in a traditional way through an unbroken sampradaya, that began with Lord Dakshinamurti, uplifted and maintained by Veda Vyasa and Adi Sankara, now handed directly to us by Pujya Swami Dayananda Saraswati.

    • Swami Pratyagbhodanandaji gave a series of talks from May 6-10. His talks were very profound and we all enjoyed his deep breadth of the knowledge of Srutis, Smritis and Puranans, his sense of devotion, and his warm personality, especially his jokes and sense of humor.
    • Swami Viditatmanandaji will give talks on verses from Gita, ch.10 from June 18-21. Ch. 10 teaches us how to relate to Ishvara by understanding his wonderful creation, this entire cosmos that we experience. At the Sequoia Retreat Center Swamiji will cover verses from Bhaj Govindam from June 22-24.
    • Swami Tattvavidanandaji will visit us from Aug 14-22. The morning talks will be on Vedanta Dindima (Tenents of Vedanta), a beautiful, structured, traditional text by Adi Shankaracharya; it forms the principal foundation of Self-Knowledge. Swamiji has been teaching us this text for several year's.
    • AIM for Seva presents Dance for Cause on Sept 8. This is an opportunity to make education accessible to every child in the tribal, rural, and urban areas through the concept of a Student Home. To provide basic health care to people living in the remote regions of the country.
