What is Vedanta

Philosophy of Life

Vedanta is derived from two Sanskrit words, veda knowledge and anta end. Thus Vedanta means the culmination of knowledge. It is the ancient Indian philosophy which answers the fundamental questions of life.

Vedanta presents the eternal principles of life and living. It enables a life of mental peace combined with dynamic action in the world. It equips one with clarity of intellect to deal with the challenges of life. Above all, it leads one to the ultimate goal of Self-realisation.

“Living is an art, skill, technique. You need to learn and practise it. As you would to play a musical instrument or fly an aircraft.”

A. Parthasarathy
