Our Programs
Atma Darshan
Atma Darshan is an attempt by D2D to make you experience the presence of Divine seed within you, the Atman (or) Soul. In Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna imparted the knowledge about the Atman to Arjuna. This knowledge is the foundation of D2D. We teach breathing and meditation techniques. In addition, we teach Bhagavad Gita and D2D basic, advanced courses for the spiritual aspirant. We try to impart the knowledge and provide the experience through which everyone can feel the Divine seed within.
