October 2020
People of different faiths, as well as those who have no particular belief, can benefit from the lectures. Vedanta is impersonal and rational; it is not a particular creed but includes all creeds, and affirms that they are different expressions of One Truth.
Please note that all lectures will be broadcasted online by Live Streaming for Sunday morning lectures and by Zoom for Thursday evening classes. Berkeley and San Jose premises will remain closed due to the pandemic until further announcement.

Swami Vivekananda: Always Alive
"Every new religious wave requires a new center. The old religion can only be revivified by a new center. Hang your dogmas or doctrines, they never pay. It is a character, a life, a center, a God-man that must lead the way, that must be the center around which all other elements will gather themselves and then fall like tidal wave upon the society, carrying all before it, washing away all impurities".
