01. Introduction
"Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success."
After having gained long experience in serving people through three centres (at Bindweide, Mühlheim/Main and Mohnweg Berlin) the members of the Vedanta Gesellschaft felt the need to combine those three centres and establish a permanent centre in Berlin to reach out to more number of sincere spiritual seekers. The newly-built permanent centre of the society is now situated at Marienfelder Allee 73, 12277 Berlin.
The non-profit service activities of the society are meant for people without any distinction of gender, colour, nationality or religion.
