There is also a talk in Mornings 2nd to 7th May 2013 on Kenopanishad, Time: 7.00am to 8.00 am
This will be addressed by Swami Advaitananda of the Mission.
Swami Advaitananda was an engineer before he became an Acharya with Chinmaya Mission 20 years ago.
His Holiness Swami Chinmayananda, founder of Chinmaya Mission, taught spirituality as the art of living. Through jnana yoga (the Vedantic path of spiritual knowledge), he emphasized the balance of head and heart, pointing out selfless work, study, and meditation as the cornerstones of spiritual practice.
Not satisfied by worldly aspirations or his degrees in literature and law, Balakrishna Menon pursued spiritual studies for nine years in the Himalayas, under the guidance of Swami Sivananda (Divine Life Society) and the tutelage of Swami Tapovanam. He eventually came to share this Vedantic knowledge with the masses, in the form of the dynamic teacher known as Swami Chinmayananda.
He is renowned worldwide as a spiritual master and one of the foremost teachers of Shrimad Bhagavad Gita. He has been credited with the renaissance of spirituality and cultural values in India, and with the spreading of the ageless wisdom of Advaita Vedanta, as expounded by Adi Shankaracharya, throughout the world.
“I am the follower of a scientific spiritual path, because Vedanta is an ancient science” was Swami Advaitananda’s answer when we asked him if it was difficult for a qualified engineer to adopt a life of spiritual pursuit.”It is meant for all and not only for monks & sages.”
