Shri Jagadguru Sanyas Ashram has been on this holy soil of the banks of the Ganga for more than 80 years. Mahatmas though lesser known to the world, but with great spiritual heights, have lived in this ashram in their silent meditation and absorption in God. Their Sankalpa is the unseen force in bringing blessings to the devotees visiting and praying in the place consecrated by them.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fpunarpran-pratishta-ceremony-31-jan-to-4-feb-at-shri-jagatguru-sanyas-ashram%2F|title:Learn%20More” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space height=”45px” el_class=”arg-spacer”][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fthe-pran-prathistha-tickets-510643928737%3Faff%3Debdssbonlinesearch|title:RSVP” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space height=”45px” el_class=”arg-spacer”][vc_btn title=”Donate Now” color=”warning” align=”center” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fdonation%2F”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][argenta_sc_heading module_type_layout=”on_left” subtitle_type_layout=”top_subtitle” hide_divider=”1″ title=”Events” title_typo=”font_size~26″ subtitle_typo=”weight~inherit” subtitle=”Live Sessions”][vc_column_text]Join the live sessions as well as participate in various events[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6249″ img_size=”medium”][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fevents%2F|title:View%20Events” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][argenta_sc_heading module_type_layout=”on_left” subtitle_type_layout=”top_subtitle” hide_divider=”1″ title=”Courses” subtitle=”Learning” title_typo=”font_size~26″ subtitle_typo=”weight~inherit”][vc_column_text]Self learning courses to help you understand the concepts in more detail[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6246″ img_size=”medium”][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fcourses%2F|title:Browse%20Courses” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][argenta_sc_heading module_type_layout=”on_left” subtitle_type_layout=”top_subtitle” hide_divider=”1″ title=”Discussion Forum” subtitle=”Participate” title_typo=”font_size~26″ subtitle_typo=”weight~inherit”][vc_column_text]Participate in the online discussion forums and learn from the shared wisdom[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6247″ img_size=”medium”][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fgroups%2F|title:Learn%20More” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][argenta_sc_heading module_type_layout=”on_left” subtitle_type_layout=”top_subtitle” hide_divider=”1″ title=”Donations” subtitle=”Extend your support” title_typo=”font_size~26″ subtitle_typo=”weight~inherit”][vc_column_text]Support the noble cause by extending your generous donations[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”6248″ img_size=”medium”][argenta_sc_button layout=”outline” shape_size=”small” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fservantsofshankara.com%2Fdonation%2F|title:Learn%20More” button_title=”Find More”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”70px” el_class=”arg-spacer”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1478168276850{padding-top: 0px !important;}”][argenta_sc_split_box bg_first_size=”cover” bg_first_parallax=”vertical” bg_second_size=”cover” bg_second_color=”#424242″ bg_second_image=”5675″ css_class=”n_img_padding”][argenta_sc_split_box_column][argenta_sc_heading module_type_layout=”on_left” subtitle_type_layout=”top_subtitle” hide_divider=”1″ title=”Maha-Mandaleshwar Swamiji Abhishek Chaitanya Giri Maharaj” title_typo=”weight~inherit” subtitle_typo=”weight~inherit”][vc_empty_space][argenta_sc_text]A puckish sense of humour, compassion couched in practicality, a readiness to help, an eagerness to share knowledge and a non-negotiable loyalty to Truth!

pranams with gratitude.
🌹 🙏
You hv been teaching us for so many years, and now with Tatwanusandhanam, you are bringing us so close to the Reality, that we are not the body. An unique way of teaching, so patiently, explaining each word, unfolding the Truth of our being. It’s not an easy task. But slowly with the studies, you are taking us towards the highest knowledge, with so much ease and comfort.
After the studies, one can easily go into samadhi after contemplating on what has been taught.
Swamiji, no word is enough to thank you.
Its only your Kripa and karuna. Any offering at Gurus lotus feet is never enough, it’s just our Shradhha and Prayer.
but your gift to us is immeasurable.
Swamiji, please bless us to continue our journey, till we reach the final understanding.
Pranam with gratitude

Myself Dr. Mrs. Suhas Mokashi from Pune Maharashtra.
I have been associated with SOSF since 2019.
It gives me immense pleasure to tell you all about my experience with Sosf!
Due to my preoccupations at professional as well as home front my desire to know about the real truth of life remained subdued till I met Swamiji and listened to his discourses. I was able to visualise the increasing anger, irritability and sense of incompleteness the subdued desire was building within me! I used to rush to ask many questions to spiritual teachers wherever i found them. But no answer seemed to pacify my mind.
And one fine day the Paran Ishwara showered his blessings on me and i came across the ongoing online discourses on Laghuvasudevmananam by param pujya Mahamandaleshwar Swami Abhishek Chaitainya giriji!
His calm and passionate nature, his depth of knowledge on the subject he takes up for teaching, way of answering the doubts of students, coming step down for the student’s level of understanding to make them understand what exactly is meant by the words given in scriptures, no hesitation in repeating the same thing again and again till the students grasp it properly…. And the list goes on….! He has all those qualities in abundance which a spiritual teacher should possess!!!
After Laghuvasudevmananam i was waiting what next and he started Jivanmukti Viveka by Shri Vidyaranya swamiji, then Sadhana panchakam and now Tatvanusandhanam, Bhagwadgita and Narad Bhakti sutra!
With the study of each book i realised there is lot of change occuring in not only my understanding of scriptures but also my behavior! There is some kind of fearlessness building within towards the unknown! Day by day mind is getting calmed and my approach towards the life is also changing!
I am really thankful to the Param Ishwara for blessing me with a Param dnyani guru!
I am really indebted to param pujya swamiji and want to express my gratitude towards him for the sheer joy of knowledge he has imparted to us through the his discourses!
May the almighty bless him with a very long healthy life so that all those inquisitive wandering minds like me will keep getting pacified and ultimately will reach their goal !

Study of ‘Tattvanusandhnam’ and ‘Shrimad Bhagwad Gita’ is going on. His command on the subject and language is astounding.

Though I come from another tradition, I found that Swamiji teachings have no boundaries of any kind.

I have been blessed for being associated with Swamiji for quite long time since 1990’s , when He took Vedant Course at SandeepanySadhanalaya Chinmaya Mission Powai, Mumbai.
I thank Him for steering our intellect and embarking us on thinking adventure in Vedanta.
The words of vendanta( ShrutiVakya) though subtle and volatile, explanations by Swamiji have helped me reach close to Knowledge (Param Jnana – AJNANA NIVARTAKAM ).
Swamiji’s Pravachan on Sadhana Panchakam, BrhamavidaAshirwad, Narad Bhakti Sutra, Tattvanusandhanam, JeevanMukti Vivek, BhagwadGeeta , Upanishads , and many more text written and composed by Profound and most Respected Vedanti Teachers like JagadGuru Shri AdiShankaracharya , Param Pujya Vidyaaranya Swami, H.H Pujya Raman Maharshi and many more, gives us a vivid subjective elaboration about the vast research done by the Great Rishis in our GuruParampara.
