Regular Class
Continuous study of Vedanta's central texts, verse by verse, with direct guidance from the teacher.
Join the waiting list for the next classHere we study the central texts of Vedanta. This is where the seeker connects with the tradition, effectively becoming a student.
On this journey, we study verse by verse, with commentaries and explanations from the teacher, various texts written by Śrī Śaṅkarācārya, aimed at purifying the seeker, preparing and teaching the main fundamentals necessary to build the vision of Vedanta.
Each class follows a different path, depending on the personality of the students and the choice of texts. The choice of these texts is not revealed beforehand — the student discovers them during the study process.
Although this class has a two-year cycle, it is not a study with an end date. Some students have taken the class two, three times, according to each one's need, until they are prepared to move on to deeper studies.
“Vedanta is like turning on a light in a dark room... and without anything changing in your life, you become a different person.”— Jonas Masetti

What students say
“The Regular Class changed how I relate to everything. Not because it promises something — but because the study reveals what was hidden by ignorance.”
“I searched in many places. Vedanta was the only one where I found answers that don't depend on conditions.”
“Jonas teaches in a way that makes sense to a modern mind. No mysticism. Verse by verse, understanding builds itself.”
