Vedanta Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vedanta Society, and its variant Vedanta Centre, are terms covering organizations, groups, or societies formed for the study, practice, and propagation of Vedanta. Probably the first Vedanta Society was founded by Swami Vivekananda in New York in November of 1894.[1] Many of the existing Vedanta Societies are affiliated, either formally or informally, with the Ramakrishna Order.
