Tattvabodha
Tattvabodha, authored by the revered Adi Sankaracharya, is a foundational text in the Advaita Vedanta tradition. Structured as a samvada (dialogue between teacher and student), it introduces and explains key Vedantic concepts in a concise and systematic manner. The text covers essential topics such as sadhanacatuaya (the fourfold qualifications), sarira-traya (three bodies), pancha-kosha (five sheaths), and the nature of the atma (Self) versus anatma (non-Self).
Designed for the sincere seeker, Tattvabodha serves as a pramaa-granthaa text that reveals knowledge otherwise inaccessible through perception or inference. It forms the ideal entry point for those beginning their Vedantic study, offering clarity and context that support further exploration of texts like the Upanisad-s, Bhagavad Gita, and Brahmasutra.
This course aims to unfold the depth of Shankara’s teachings with clarity, precision, and relevance, making it accessible to modern spiritual aspirants while remaining rooted in tradition.
