Swami Tattvavidananda
Mahamahopadhyaya Swami Tattvavidanandaji is a true Pandita in both a classical and modern sense. His Vedic studies began in childhood, first under the tutelage of his father, a well-known scholar, and later in a traditional Pataskala. He excelled in his Vedic studies and at the age of 11 was encouraged to begin modern academic studies. A brilliant student, he ultimately earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry and enjoyed a successful scientific career.
Swamiji continued to retain his connection to his Vedic roots, and at the instigation of colleagues, presented some of his thoughts on the Veda as a formal Ph.D. dissertation. This won him a Gold Medal and a second doctorate, this time in Sanskrit. Although steeped in traditional Vedic learning, Swami Tattvavidanandaji considers his search for understanding Vedanta ended only when he finally heard Pujya Swamiji, about Twenty-five years ago.

Swamiji is Vice President of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam, Saylorsburg and has written more than 70 books on Vedanta in English/Sanskrit/Telugu. With his rich store of knowledge, his cheerful, unaffected manner, and his eagerness to share, Swami Tattvavidanandaji is a highly appreciated and beloved teacher at the Gurukulam. Swamiji is that rare combination of knowledge (vidya) and humility (Vinaya).
