Vedant Bhaskar / About Us
About Vedant Bhaskar
Vedant Bhaskar is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization built on four core pillars: Education, Spirituality, Culture, and Community.
We are dedicated to public and charitable service through community education focused on Vedantic literature (grantha) and cultural traditions. We believe true education must illuminate the inner self. Through the study and practice of non-dual philosophy (Kevaladvaita Tattvajnana), we empower individuals and families to apply timeless Vedantic wisdom to achieve self-transformation, mental peace, and purposeful living.
GUIDED BY LIVING TRADITION :
The spiritual foundation of our work is deeply inspired by the revered lineage and teachings of Sadguru P. P. Dr. Shrikrushna Dattatreya Deshmukh (lovingly known as P. P. Dr. Kaka) from Murgud, India. Under his revered guidance and the blessings of other present-day spiritual teachers, Vedant Bhaskar carries forward an age-old tradition of spiritual study, self-inquiry, collective worship (Upasana), and selfless service (Seva).
WHAT WE DO :
Through free community programs, digital outreach, and multilingual publications, Vedant Bhaskar offers meaningful opportunities for learning, spiritual practice, and community connection:
- Spiritual Education & Scriptural Study: In-depth workshops, study retreats, and structured lectures exploring foundational Vedantic Granthas, including ongoing, detailed study of sacred texts such as Dnyaneshwari, Vivekchudamani, Ganapati Atharvashirsha, and Narada Bhakti Sutras.
- Digital Media & Global Outreach: Free access to an extensive library of over 500 audio and video discourses on our YouTube channel (@vastusiddhih), alongside our quarterly newsletters published in English, Hindi, and Marathi.
- Cultural & Language Schooling: Value-education classes for youth (Bal-Sanskar Varg) and language programs, such as our Marathi Cultural School, that instill strong moral grounding and cultural identity.
- Collective Upasana & Wellness: Group worship, meditation, and holistic health sessions, including Yoga and Surya Namaskar workshops, designed to harmonize body, mind, and spirit.
- Community Service & Outreach: Putting spiritual principles into action through local outreach, resource donation, and active hands-on volunteering with community organizations such as RAFT (Resource Area For Teachers).
