About the topic:
Upadesha Sara by Ramana Maharshi outlines four principal yogic paths for spiritual evolution, emphasizing the unity of their ultimate goal—Self-realization. These paths—Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Raja Yoga, and Jnana Yoga—offer distinct yet harmonious approaches to attaining liberation (moksha). Each path caters to different temperaments and inclinations, yet they all converge in their ultimate aim. Let us explore these yogic paths in brief.
About the speaker:
Brahmacharini Shubhani Chaitanya is a disciple of Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda. Born in Manila, bred in New York, and built-in Bharat, she has grown through Chinmaya Mission as a Bala Vihar child, a dynamic CHYK (Chinmaya Yuva Kendra), and now a Brahmacharini posted in Chinmaya Mission New York.
She studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City where she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in International Trade and Marketing. After working in the fashion industry for around 7 years, she decided to take a sabbatical to find her true calling. This led her to join YEP – the Youth Empowerment Program where she was involved in writing/editing books, organizing camps and teaching in schools. She also assisted in the script-writing of Swami Chinmayananda’s movie – On a Quest, and later pursued her very own in Sandeepany Sadhanalaya, Mumbai.
She completed the Vedanta course in 2016 where she was initiated as Brahmacharini Shubhani Chaitanya. She brings natural wisdom and compassion to her classes and loves sharing with people the Science of Happiness that is Vedanta. She currently conducts classes on various Vedantic subjects.
