Submitted by Adhyatma Vidya Mandir 06/17/2003 BOSTON AREA SATSANGEES Invite You to Attend Discourses By: Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Sri Swami Viditatmananda, a disciple of Sri Swami Dayananda Saraswati, expounds Vedanta with simplicity and directness that make it easy to assimilate. Having lived and worked in the United States prior to becoming a renunciate, Swami Viditatmananda is familiar with the lifestyles in India and the west. With his insight into both cultures, he reaches out to everyone with equal ease. Swami Viditatmananda graduated in 1978 from the course taught by Pujya swamiji in Bombay, India. Since then he has been extremely active, teaching, writing books and preparing Pujya Swamiji's words for publication. He visits the Gurukulam every year during spring/summer and conducts classes. Under the banner of Adhyatma Vidya Mandir, Swami Viditatmananda conducts various programs to disseminate the knowledge of the scriptures. He gives talks on the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita all over Gujarat, India. He also conducts management seminars with a view to show the relevance of Vedanta in management. Says Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati "Success is usually measured in terms of the outcome, in terms of wealth, power, fame etc. But these achievements become meaningful only if they create a sense of satisfaction. It is the right effort that helps us cultivate this capacity to derive satisfaction. Ultimate success is the ability to enjoy satisfaction regardless of the outcome, a freedom from judging oneself based on the outcome." About Gita in daily life, Swami says " Man is searching for happiness, freedom. He has been given free will, the faculty of choice, and it is his responsibility to make choices in every situation. Bhagavad Gita teaches us the attitudes and values, based on the realities of life, to help us make proper choices in our daily life, so that life becomes a process of progressively discovering the freedom that we are seeking. Bhagavad Gita teaches us the goal as well as the path to a fulfilling life."
