2024 is almost over, and we’re stepping into 2025. Just like the years, time flows on without breaks—it’s one continuous stream.

In the same way, Brahman is whole and indivisible, an unbroken reality of bliss.

Thanks, Swami Ji, for such a beautiful explanation!
Pronam

Swamiji, I think it would be helpful to make the distinction between faith and shraddha. Faith or belief requires you to trust some concept as reality without understanding it. Advaita does not require faith, however, it does require shraddha. Brahman is directly available to us, but it seems easier than it is to see reality, hence to say that advaita does not require faith without explaining that it requires shraddha will confuse people and make them think advaita is simply about recognizing empirical evidence. Advaita is deeper than the empirical, it is direct knowledge. Empirical consciousness is the reflected consciousness and is used only as a tool of direct enquiry.

The shraddha advaita requires means reverential enquiry which you have spoken about, I just think it is an important point to repeat everytime someone brings up the topic of faith in advaita. Advaita vedanta at its root is a reverential study into the upanishads with the guidance of a guru. Hence belief is not required in the texts.

Faith is required in the guru. And this faith comes directly because contact with the guru brings us deep peace and freedom from suffering and anxiety. Might not even be a living saint, just look at the lives of great saints of the past, their lives are a testament to the truth of spirituality and advaita.

So with their blessings, undergo the study of the texts with deep respect and patience, argumentation is done for the sake of understanding of the texts, but the basis that the texts are true is established and not up for argumentation.

Thank you😊

Varaha Upanishad says you can’t attain paramukti by yoga

You first made a hypothesis: you are Brahman …rest of the statements are based on the hypothesis not based on experience.

Happy New Year, Swami Ji! Bless me that this year, my stream may merge with oneness consciousness.

Happy new year maharaj 😊❤

When consciousness is infinite all pervading ,how is it me?

Thankyou, Swami Ji 🙏 🙏 🙏

Thus I believe silence is Brahman. It could well be that silence reveals light. Every pointer to Brahman applies to silence. By silence I mean pure silence - that without thoughts. Silence that Om purifies so we can immerse in it- when language aids us as we claim we are silence, that we have ‘become silence’

Pranam swamiji 💐🙏
Keep oneself undisturbed amidst the disturbances of the world is really meditation 😊

For the guy who asked about why not duality, dualist will not be able to explain enlightenment or liberation convincingly.
