COURSES/ POSTAL & E-VEDANTA COURSES

 
 
 

Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda, initiated a unique method to study the essence of Vedanta, in the form of easy lessons, without any books, at home. He specially designed this course to cater to the different types of students all over the world for the subjective development of their personality without interfering with their official, social or domestic commitments.

Chinmaya International Foundation (CIF) welcomes all Vedanta students to enroll in its progressive home study Vedanta Correspondence Courses, the primary aim of which is to provide clarity and depth in a seeker's understanding of Vedantic principles.

The one-year correspondence course is offered at two levels: Basic (Foundation) and Advanced. Each course covers various central Vedantic concepts, as taught in introductory texts such as Vivekachudamani, Atma Bodha, etc. Students are guided by CIF's appointed acharyas (teachers), who assess and give feedback on the answers submitted. If these courses were faithfully followed, one would gain sufficient maturity and spiritual stability leading to one's personality unfoldment.
