Have never come across any religion that is soo profound and that which does not discrimination you from others . Other religions discriminate between believers and non believers. Where as, vedanta discriminates between you and your ignorance. I am.blessed blessed and blessed to be born in this culture on this land of great sages and divine knowledge ❤❤❤❤

It’s astonishing that humans had this knowledge 4000 years ago. If any of the ancient rishis walk into today’s society, they can immediately recognize the dissatisfaction present in the modern society and have a cure for it - whether it is drug addiction or Facebook addiction or porn/Bollywood addiction or money/Wall Street addiction!

▪ Aham Bramhasmi...Goosebumps ❤ ▪ Only after waking up, we call it a dream, but at that time, it was a living reality. ▪ Deep Sleep is not absence of consciousness but consciousness of absence. ▪ In waking state, I is there ( we identify ourselves with physical body, thoughts, emotions, personality) , in dream I is there ( we identify ourselves with dream body, people and places) but in deep sleep I is not there coz there is nothing to identify with...🤔 ▪Neither that is true, nor this is true, YOU ARE THE TRUTH...Wow...Goosebumps again..❤ ▪ While Waking State, I feel I am here, I am experiencing it, While Dreaming I am there, I am experiencing that but while deep sleep, I don't feel I am there as waking and dreaming state..I become non existent...unless I experience myself in deep sleep i can't proceed furthur i guess..that's the fundamental realization of SELF i guess 🤔 ▪ That which illumins, does not get affected by what it illumins. Appearances can't affect reality. ▪ IT is available NOW, IT is available HERE and IT is YOU. ▪ A : Waker and the waking world. U : Dreamer and the dream world. M : Deep sleeper and darkness. SILENCE. AUM...Silence is not seperate but it was always there.

I'm a cynical, skeptical person, but this amazing man impresses hell out of me. He makes brilliant sense to me, coming from a philosophical background, specifically Spinozism, which says that God is Nature or existence itself; free will is a delusion; everything is determined by God; and that life is perfect as is, but, of course, not from our viewpoint perhaps, if you are in pain especially. But everything is as it should be, not as we want it, often anyway. But we need to adjust to it, not vice-versa. This guy says a lot of the same things in clear, understandable ways. I recommend him and Vedanta. Please give it a chance, for everyone's sake.

What if we are given a choice to experience waking world,dreaming world and deep sleeping world hypothetically at the same time then which one can be considered as a reality? It's none,because each phase is contradicted by the other and so it's proven that none can be considered as a reality. Reality is the self-consciousness which experiences all those three phases.
