I had no proof that Vedanta was better than alternative methods. But the understanding of the glorious intelligence that connects you and me, that guides us even now, the essence of all that is, grew firmly and clearly. This vision was further refined by brilliant courses at the Chinmaya International Foundation (Kerala, India) for the next 2 years.

Her style further clarified the direct meaning of <span class=\"glossaryLink cmtt_Short\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"cmtt_3eb157f74fbed21b635923c2d3b5d2ec\" data-mobile-support=\"0\" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]' tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">Advaita<\/span> Vedanta.
