Featured Event
Our next next session will be delivered from a well established temple in East London
Know thy Self and be free from all suffering
The goal of this life, as declared by enlightened masters since the beginning of time is Self-Realisation, also called God-Realisation. The spiritual journey is to dive deep within and to transcend this phenomenal world to know the source of all, pure existence itself. To do this we must transcend duality and become one with all. In this knowing there is no longer any mind nor any perceiver, only pure awareness as itself.
This is the realisation of God. Next comes establishment on the truth and to see that same loving God/ the Self in all. Sri Bhagavan once said that he is crushing the stone idols of the temples and spreading the dust amongst humanity, meaning that He has inspired us to worship the living God, God within the hearts of humanity.
In the International Vedanta Society our subject is man, to be amongst mankind and serve through the medium of love and spiritual guidance. We have been inspired to follow Bhagavan's example and we are doing this all around the world. Sharing this Truth with all who have ears to hear it and hearts to receive it.
Vedanta says each soul is potentially divine. Bhagavan has shown us how to manifest that divinity and we want the world to know.
