It is our honour here in the UK to welcome spiritual teachers from around the world.

Swami Probuddhananda Puri, General Secretary of the International Vedanta Society, and Director of the Varanasi ashram in India, is a respected teacher of Advaita Vedanta known for his clear and practical teachings, inspired by the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita.  

Though Swami Probuddhananda Puri speaks on the highest philosophical truths, he is not a conventional orator. His words arise from the depth of lived experience, delivered with simplicity that resonates with authenticity. At the core of his teachings lies the essence of Self-Knowledge and Practical Vedanta, a path of living through love, mindfulness, acceptance, service, understanding, and the realisation of oneness. His message is simple, yet extraordinarily powerful. When one listens closely, the words cease to be mere ideas but become a living energy that stirs the soul and transforms consciousness.

In a time when the world is yearning for deeper truth and authentic guidance, Swami Probuddhananda Puri offers a luminous presence and message that can truly change lives.

A writer, spiritual guide, and authorised initiator of seekers under the blessings of his revered Master Si Sri Bhagavan, Swamiji is widely respected as a figure of wisdom, compassion, and selfless service.

Swami Probuddhananda Puri has shared his teachings at esteemed institutions across the world, including New York University, Suffolk University (Boston), Stanford University, Dartmouth College (New Hampshire), and Unitarian churches across the U.S., as well as La Universidad de La Laguna (Spain) and Tilburg University (Netherlands). In India, he regularly lectures at Banaras Hindu University (BHU) and conducts training on Vedanta, rooted in the Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita, at universities and national forums throughout the country.

His social contributions are equally notable. Swamiji has led self-awareness and spiritual upliftment programs in local high schools, prisons, hospitals, and widow homes in Varanasi.
