Life

Ada Albrecht was born in Corrientes, Argentina, in 1932. She moved to Buenos Aires in her youth, where she continued her studies, graduating as a Professor of Philosophy and Educational Sciences.

Since then, she has dedicated her life to spreading teachings oriented toward the inner and spiritual development of the human being, always within a framework of respect for all spiritual traditions and with a profound sense of the search for harmony and brotherhood.

Between 1972 and 1973, she made an extended study trip to India, where she learned the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta directly from monks who practiced this spiritual philosophy and through the traditional Indian teaching method. In 1977, she made a second trip, during which she completed her studies in Vedanta. Furthermore, during her stay in India, she studied in depth the grammar and writing of Sanskrit, the sacred language of India.

In 1981, he founded the Hastinapura Foundation, through which he was able to directly disseminate all the knowledge he had acquired, as well as spread the teaching of spiritual disciplines, such as meditation and devotional songs, with the aim of contributing to the spiritual well-being of humankind.

He has also written numerous books on pedagogy and spirituality and has translated essential texts of Indian philosophy into Spanish.

Finally, we should mention that, in addition to all this, he has written countless poems dedicated to God and the Divine Life, and has composed many songs that are a very appropriate and beautiful accompaniment to spiritual practices.

She wrote about 30 books on topics of spirituality, pedagogy, universal mysticism, including stories and books for children. She has also translated a large number of Hindu philosophy texts into Spanish, mainly about Advaita Vedanta.[ citation needed ]

Albrecht teaches and fosters harmony among religions, the practice of prayer and meditation, the study of universal mystical doctrines and the cultivation of sacred music as means of approaching God.
