The focus of the Boundless Wisdom events is to delve deeply into the Knowledge expounded in Advaita Vedanta texts by sages such as Ribhu and Adi Sankara. These texts reveal the same Truth as that found in the teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi. The verses or passages are read aloud, commentary is offered, and dialogues usually follow. Thereby, the original meaning is presented, and the full extent of its significance is explained, which yields a thorough, experiential comprehension.
This retreat is focused on nondual Self-Knowledge as revealed by Sri Ramana Maharshi and consists of in-depth commentary, with dialogue, upon the teachings contained in Sri Ramana Maharshi’s Saddarshanam (i.e., Sat-Darshanam, Truth Revealed, Forty Verses on Reality). There is also much time for the participants to silently meditate upon this quintessential, profound Knowledge during these three days of blissful Wisdom and the revelation of the Truth within you.
