An international Veda tutorial programme by Young Adults

The International Veda Programme 2022 commenced on April 24, 2022 on the auspicious occasion of Sri Sathya Sai Aradhana Mahotsavam with more than 600 registered participants. The training course caters for beginner, intermediate and advanced learners and is a golden opportunity to spread the glory and potency of the Vedas around the world for the benefit of mankind. Each participant will be allocated a teacher and will be part of a group of equally enthusiastic people from their zone/country who, want to embark on this Vedic journey. This online Veda Training Programme is open to all!

“The Veda is the Mother of all the Shastras. The Veda emanated from God Himself as inhalation and exhalation. The great sages, who were the embodiments of the treasure gained by long ascetic practises, received Veda as a series of sounds and spread it over the world by word of mouth from preceptor to pupil.”

Sathya Sai Vahini, Chapter 22, The Eternal Truths

The International Young Adults Veda Programme launched its first Veda training on the auspicious occasion of Sri Sathya Sai Aradhana Mahotsavam on April 24, 2020, followed by the inaugural webinar on June 20, 2020. 1,400 Young Adults (YAs) from around the world enrolled in the yearlong structured training program. The program provides a golden opportunity to empower YAs to take up Veda chanting and to propagate the teachings of Vedas.

The subcommittee aims to create a platform to facilitate the teaching and learning of Vedas. Learners of all levels will have the opportunity to join regular online sessions and practise with experienced teachers to help them chant various Vedic mantras with the correct pronunciation and intonation with adherence to Sandhi rules.

Learners will be able to implement their learnings by participating in all Sri Sathya Sai International Organization and Sai Young Adults online and in-person events at regional, national, zonal, and international levels. The subcommittee will also host regular Veda webinars with eminent speakers who will be able to provide a deeper understanding of the Vedas and its Universal teachings.

People from across the world will be able to learn, chant, and propagate these powerful cosmic vibrations allowing them to utilise this ancient knowledge to transform spiritually and ultimately realise the divinity inherent within.
