Course Inspiration
The courses are inspired by the ancient Indian concept of Advaita. It shows that there is an underlying unity to everything which holds the key to a happy, contented and useful life.
We also embrace a wide range of other traditions, including Christianity, Platonism, Taoism, and Buddhism. We study the wisdom of the world's greatest philosophers, thinkers and writers including:
- Socrates
- Plato
- Shakespeare
- Meister Eckhart
- Albert Einstein
- Shantananda Saraswati
- Mozart
- Marsilio Ficino
- Shankara
- Richard Jefferies
- Marcus Aurelius
The focus on Advaita is based simply on the practical experience that it
works. It offers an excellent way of explaining what many students
experience and practical advice on how to live life more effectively.
The spirit of Advaita is not to keep away from anything, but to keep in tune with everything.
