Welcome to An Immersion in Sacred Texts
Vedic 'Shastra' Study Under Acharya Shunya
In today’s world, even well-intentioned spiritual teachers—whether in the West or from India—often offer only fragments of wisdom: brief summaries, headlines, bullet points, or simplified practices to fit into 20 minutes a day. Rarely do seekers have the chance to engage in true Shastra study—the exploration of source texts like the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, where the deep well of Vedic knowledge is revealed in its wholeness and then lived.
In the Vedic Study Circle, this is our central pillar—the heart around which all other offerings revolve. Here, under the guidance of Acharya Shunya and lineage teachers from our Sarayu Parampara, we enter these original texts, uncover their layered meaning, and bring their timeless truths into daily life. This is not just learning; it is immersion in the source, and we are grateful to walk this path together.
Moments from a living tradition — watch this video for glimpses into the life of Vedic master Acharya Shunya: teaching, chanting, studying, counseling students, and always at the feet of Shastra, Guru, and Parampara.
Companion Shastra Study
In the Sarayu Parampara, a Sadhvi (female-identified, like a Sadhu for male-identified) is a senior disciple who has deeply embodied the teachings through years of study, self-discipline, and inner transformation. Honored by the Guru, she is entrusted to guide others on the Vedic path with wisdom, humility, and spiritual integrity.
Swadhyaya—self-study and reflection—blends Advaita texts, meditation, and mindful living. In our companion study sessions, offered by seasoned Sadhvis, Sadhus, and dedicated Sadhyas (on the path to becoming a Sadhu or Sadhvi), you find a space of refuge, like a bird pausing to rest after a long flight. Together, we immerse ourselves in one Shastra (sacred text) and related sadhana (disciplines), allowing the mind and heart to settle more deeply into its wisdom. Revisiting the teachings after first hearing them is a gentle unfolding that nurtures clarity, insight, and an ever-deepening connection to the Self.
