Vedānta &
Sanskrit Classes
Structured learning programmes for scholars, students, and sincere seekers — from foundational Sanskrit to advanced studies in classical Vedānta and Abhinava Pranavavāda.
Learning the
living tradition.
Sri Sitaram Swadhyaya Samsthanam conducts multiple classes related to Indic knowledge systems. All sessions are recorded and regularly uploaded to our YouTube channel, Pranava Prema Piyusha, so that students anywhere in the world can follow along at their own pace.
Students may also attend classes in person. We believe that Sanskrit and Vedāntic learning are not merely academic exercises but gateways to a living philosophical and spiritual tradition. Our programmes are designed to cultivate both intellectual understanding and contemplative depth.
Pranava Prema Piyusha
All class recordings are freely available on our YouTube channel.
