By Acharya Tadany Cargnin dos Santos Published in Diário de Santa Maria, February 12, 2026 We Are Living Through an Unprecedented Revolution Never in the history of humanity has knowledge been so accessible. What once required years of study, long journeys, and immense effort is now just a few clicks away. We live in an era where information circulates faster …

In this deeply compassionate and psychologically insightful class, Acharya Tadany illuminated the Bhagavad Gītā as a practical manual especially tailored for active, responsible individuals — those with families, careers, social obligations, and emotional challenges — rather than solely for renunciates or contemplatives, emphasizing its power to manage emotional disturbances, navigate complex duties, and integrate spiritual wisdom with worldly engagement.  Acharya …

In this compassionate and deeply realistic class, Acharya Tadany illuminated Krishna’s non-coercive yet uncompromising philosophy on spiritual freedom (mokṣa) as the ultimate goal of life—the complete liberation from the cycle of birth and death—while emphasizing that the Vedic tradition uniquely grants every individual total freedom of choice.  Krishna suggests mokṣa as the highest pursuit but never enforces it as a …

In this class, Acharya Tadany questions the comforting illusion that a “pure mind” alone grants mokṣa, revealing through Krishna’s words that mental purity is merely the prerequisite soil while jñāna (Self-knowledge) is the seed that actually flowers into liberation, I.e., without deliberate planting through śravaṇam, mananam, and nididhyāsanam, even the cleanest mind remains barren.  He masterfully unpacked the three layered …

Acharya Tadany. In this class on Dhyāna Yoga, Acharya Tadany unveiled Krishna’s profound roadmap for meditating on Bhagavān across three progressive levels of spiritual maturity. The manda-adhikārī (beginner) focuses on a single personal form (ēka-rūpa dhyānam), cultivating devotion through concrete images and murtis to build emotional connection. The madhyama-adhikārī (intermediate) expands to see the Divine manifested in everything (anēka-rūpa dhyānam), …

You are not preparing to live, you are already alive. The breath in your lungs is the only permission slip you need. Stop waiting. Start being. We all crave existence. We go to incredible lengths to validate ourselves, to appear interesting, acceptable, or unique in the eyes of others. We craft identities, chase achievements, and meticulously curate how we are …
