Discourse & Satsangs
The core of Brahmavidya dissemination mission of NAT and CIRDs consists of Discourses and Satsangs conducted by Poojya Swamiji and his sannyasin disciples Swami Nirviseshananda Tirtha and Ma Gurupriya (in person as well as online).
Generally there are two annual programmes in CIRDs and other cities in India and abroad – one during the visit of Poojya Swamiji and Ma, and the other during the visit of Nutan Swamiji. Programmes conducted during Poojya Swamiji’s visit are called Jnana Yajna, and during Nutan Swamiji’s visit are called Sadhana Shibiram.
Major Events
Apart from regular discourses conducted by the Ashram throughout the year, some annual programmes take place in the Ashram and some others in different centres across the world. All programmes are live streamed irrespective of where they take place.
Jnana Yajna
Jnaana Yajna consists of Knowledge dissemination programmes through series of public discourses, workshops, sessions for youth and professionals, and living in the association of the Knower. This takes place when Poojya Swamiji along with Ma visit various CIRDs and other cities.
