Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Ādi-līlā 7.141-142
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Ādi-līlā 7.141-142
"“It is only by devotional service, beginning with hearing, that one can approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is the only means to approach Him." "“By practicing this regulated devotional service under the direction of the spiritual master, certainly one awakens his dormant love of Godhead. This process is called abhidheya." Śrī caitanya-caritāmṛta Ādi 7.141 & 142
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 2.10.6
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 2.10.6
"The merging of the living entity, along with his conditional living tendency, with the mystic lying down of the Mahā-Viṣṇu is called the winding up of the cosmic manifestation. Liberation is the permanent situation of the form of the living entity after he gives up the changeable gross and subtle material bodies." https://vedy.online/en/sb2/10/6
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Ādi-līlā 7.119
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Ādi-līlā 7.119
"“ ‘The potency of Lord Viṣṇu is summarized in three categories — namely, the spiritual potency, the living entities and ignorance. The spiritual potency is full of knowledge; the living entities, although belonging to the spiritual potency, are subject to bewilderment; and the third energy, which is full of ignorance, is always visible in fruitive activities.’" Śrī caitanya-caritāmṛta Ādi 7.119
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Madhya-līlā 21.1
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta - Madhya-līlā 21.1
"Offering my obeisances unto Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, let me describe a particle of His opulence and sweetness. He is most valuable for a fallen conditioned soul bereft of spiritual knowledge, and He is the only shelter for those who do not know the real goal of life." Śrī caitanya-caritāmṛta Madhya 21.1
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.13.39
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.13.39
"O Lord, You are the Supreme Personality of Godhead and are worshipable by universal prayers, Vedic hymns and sacrificial ingredients. We offer our obeisances unto You. You can be realized by the pure mind freed from all visible and invisible material contamination. We offer our respectful obeisances to You as the supreme spiritual master of knowledge in devotional service." https://vedy.online/en/sb3/13/39
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 6.1.51
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 6.1.51
"The subtle body is endowed with sixteen parts — the five knowledge-acquiring senses, the five working senses, the five objects of sense gratification, and the mind. This subtle body is an effect of the three modes of material nature. It is composed of insurmountably strong desires, and therefore it causes the living entity to transmigrate from one body to another in human life, animal life and life as a demigod. When the living entity gets the body of a demigod, he is certainly very jubilant, when he gets a human body he is always in lamentation, and when he gets the body of an animal, he is always afraid. In all conditions, however, he is actually miserable. His miserable condition is called saṁsṛti, or transmigration in material life." https://vedy.online/en/sb6/1/51

About the project

About the project

Our goal is to bring the world’s oldest philosophy — Sanātana Dharma (the Vedas) — closer to a materialistic society in a clear and modern form. Even after more than 5,000 years, these ideas remain timeless and more relevant than ever, due to the ever-growing expansion of materialism.

People lack genuine spiritual knowledge. They are misled by atheism, hedonism, pseudo-religions, or cheap esotericism, none of which provide satisfying answers to the meaning of life or to true happiness.

We strive to restore this balance and guide people toward a more natural and conscious way of life.
