Vedanta Society of Kansas City

Vedanta Society of Kansas City The Vedanta Society of Kansas City was founded in 1947 by Swami Satprakashananda. The aim of our life on earth is to realize this divinity.

This Society is a subcenter of the Vedanta Society of St Louis and is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. WHAT VEDANTA TEACHES

Vedanta teaches that our real nature -- our real Self -- is pure, luminous, immortal, and free -- a manifestation of the Infinite Divine Reality or Godhead. To help us achieve this goal, Vedanta teaches various methods suited to individual needs and capacitie

s, by which this divine perfection of the Self can be actually experienced. Swami Vivekananda was the chief apostle of Sri Ramakrishna and heir to his master's spiritual treasures. Swami Vivekananda organized the Ramakrishna Order of India, and in 1893 he brought to the West the bold message of Vedanta when he represented Vedic religion at the Parliament of Religions held in Chicago. In 1894 he founded the Vedanta Society of New York. In 1897 he organized the Ramakrishna Mission in India. In 1900 he founded the Vedanta Society of San Francisco. His life was dedicated to recasting the ancient wisdom of Vedanta to show its practical application in helping humankind to experience God as Truth.

"Practise your meditation in a lonely spot, in dim light or in darkness. Wear loose clothes and breathe through the nose keeping the mouth shut. Try to turn the senses inward at the time of meditation. Close your eyes and fix your mental gaze upon the heart, that is to say, deep within yourself; and think that the Chosen Ideal with shining form is residing there."
- Swami Virajananda (Towards the Goal Supreme)
