Vedanta is not a theory not practice. It is just you.
– Pujya Swami Dayananda SaraswatiThis online course was created for all those who wish to enjoy the magic and transformation that Mantras & Stotras can bring to their lives, invoking the devotee in oneself and bring the sacred into everyday life.
This course is personalized with a limit of participants. Each student will always be listened to individually and the teacher is available to clarify any question during classes or in individual meetings apart from classes. An exclusive opportunity to learn to chant in a traditional way.
If the student is not available at the time of the classes, the participant can follow it in his/her own time and request an individual meeting in which the teacher will listen to the student’s chanting.
The course includes E-book with the Mantras & Stotras in Devanagari, transliterated and the meaning. The E-book is accompanied with the MP3 audio, so the student can always practice at home until the mantra is absorbed with the proper pronunciation.
The classes are available in 3 levels:
1) Beginner – “Mantra & Chanting for everyday life”
We will start with a brief theoretical approach explaining the Vedic tradition, understanding the lifestyle and how to connect with the sacred in everyday life.
As all material is in Sanskrit, we will give great importance to correct pronunciation. We will have a good introduction to the lyrics and an understanding of Sanskrit phonetics. The student will learn to read and accurately pronounce Sanskrit words using transliteration.
We will be learning different short mantras and verses from the Indian tradition. We will have verses for different deities, for yoga, for different occasions and for everyday life. Each of them will be explained in general.
