Speaker: Dr. Venkataraman Swaminathan
The Daksinamurtistotram by Adi Sankara consists of ten stanzas that expound the various tenets of Vedanta. The hymns are in praise of Lord Dakṣiṇāmūrti visualized as the embodiment of Self-knowledge. Hence, the text describes the reality of the Self as the limitless Brahman in ten verses which are linked together in such a way leading to the discernment of the one indivisible reality threading through the individual self, the world, and the causal principle, Īśvara. The text pulls together the philosophical content of the Upaniṣads, the Bhagavad Gītā and the Brahmasūtras – the three core pillars of Vedantic knowledge and presents a comprehensive summary.
In this webinar, we will outline and provide background on the Dakṣiṇāmūrtistōtram. We will also introduce a course that will do a deep dive verse by verse for those who would like to greatly enhance their understanding of the Self through the teachings of the Dakṣiṇāmūrtistōtram.
