Swami Paramananda Saraswati

Swami Paramananda
Saraswati

President of Yoga Vedanta Association Australia

Inspired by various Masters and under the guidance of Swami Anubhavananda ji — himself a disciple of Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda — Swamiji has studied the ancient scriptures and is able to share them with straightforward clarity.

Based in Melbourne, he travels throughout Australia and abroad sharing his knowledge on Bhagavad Gita, Patanjali Yoga Sutras, Pancadasi, Vedas, Upanishads and texts by ancient and modern masters.

Over 27 years Swamiji has dedicated himself to the pursuit and sharing of the vast bounty of Vedanta. His wisdom goes beyond the texts; his one goal is to inspire the pursuit of truth. His sense of humour and joyful disposition makes Vedanta easier and fun to navigate.

"Come and discover the lightness of life."

A Personal Note

Hari Om, dear friends and seekers,

Whether you have walked this path with me for many years or are arriving here for the very first time — you are most welcome.

I am currently based in Melbourne, teaching weekly satsangs online via Zoom, and looking ahead to some wonderful events in the coming months.

Our next retreat is the Kailash Manasarovar Pilgrimage in June 2026, timed for the Full Moon at Diraphuk. If Kailash is calling you, please do not delay — places are limited and this is not an opportunity that comes often.

I am also deeply happy to share that our beloved Guruji, Swami Anubhavananda ji, will be visiting Australia and New Zealand in July–August 2026. To sit with a true master of Vedanta is a rare and precious gift — I warmly encourage all of you to attend wherever possible. Full details are on the Events page.

And if you are wondering whether Vedanta is for you — simply come once. Sit, listen, ask your questions freely. The teaching is for the sincere seeker, and all are welcome.

With love and blessings,
Swami Paramananda Saraswati
