 5th to 30th November 2026

Swami Samarpan Ashram  will be conducting Vanaprastha Sannyasa Course on Vedic and Saiva Agama with Tantric perspectives as revealed by Lord Shiva. This Course will be supervised  by Living Himalayan Master Guruji Avadhuta Sri Swami Samarpananandaji and guided by  Acharya Swami Viswarupanandaji along with many other traditional Acharyas (Teachers).

During this course, you will study various branches and types of Sannyasa, such as Karma & Yogic Sannyasa /Vanaprastha /Jnana Sannyasa while living in a traditional Gurukul Life.

The Vanaprastha Sanyyasa Course will provide you with various teachings of Yoga Darshan, Vedic Darshan and Shaiva Darshan Shastras in Tantric Perspectives. Darshan literally means Philosophy but it has a different meaning which is to see, to experience our own Self, Atman jnana and Brahma Jnana.

What is Vanaprastha / Karma Sannyasa ?

Vanaprastha Sannyasa is a state of consciousness and a lifestyle. It is not only about renunciation as most understand it or a rejection of life. It is rather about accepting the real meaning and purpose of human life. This course will teach you how to sublimate and liberate Karma and desires through higher consciousness. Sannyasa is all about walking into reality and experiencing one’s own Self. Self is represented here as Atman.

Many think that as per scriptures one will only take Sannyasa Diksha when one is completely free from all desires and karma, but this is actually not possible and never really happens this way. If you are free from all desires, naturally you are liberated .Then there is no need to take any types of Sannyasa . Taking any level of Sannyasa is adopting a lifestyle which gives you great opportunity to free yourselves from desires in order to attain Enlightenment and Freedom. On this path, one may gradually proceed from Vanaprastha  to Yogic / Karma Sannyasa and finally to Jnana Sannyasa.

Although you are going to receive teachings about various types of Sannyasa lifestyles, it does not mean that we expect you to adopt or accept any specific way of life at the end of this course. Our intention is to give you the opportunity to know more about Sannyasa, to experience many aspects of it and decide for yourself if it fits you.
