December 25, 2025 – December 30, 2025 (6 Days)
Advaita VII
Conducted by: w/ Swami Atmananda Mandukya Upanishad Karika - Chapter 3 “The Reality of Oneness”
Register NowHanuman once asked Lord Rama about Self-Realization. Lord Rama replied, “Read the twelve verses of the Mandukya Upanishad. On its own, it can lead to liberation.”
During this series retreat, we will dive deep into the Mandukya Upanishad’s teachings on existence, consciousness, and the Self. As the retreat unfolds, we will explore the sacred syllable Aum and the different states of consciousness it illuminates.
We will begin to glean the depths of Amma’s teachings and guidance.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced meditator, we welcome you to join us as we delve into one of the greatest Advaitic texts ever revealed to humanity.
