The quest for genuine meaning, purpose and happiness is as old as humanity itself. Spirit Matters seeks to serve this quest.
Our community of contributors draws their inspiration from the Vedic tradition—the oldest knowledge-tradition in the world—preserved in Sanskrit texts that now exist in India. Prominent Western thinkers like Arthur Schopenhauer, Erwin Schrodinger, Albert Einstein, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, David Bohm and many others, were greatly inspired by elements of the Vedic worldview that they encountered.
Much of the content on this page is informed by the perspective of one principal Vedic text—the widely popular Bhagavad-Gita . This text provides a comprehensive and logically consistent description of reality along with procedures that can be used to verify important features of this description.
Whatever your current existential stance, we hope that this website will offer something to enrich your journey of self-discovery.
