    Why within? Why not without?

    By outer world i don't mean the forms of nature itself that are percieved by the senses but the infinite spirit underlying all forms. Isn't it possible for the yogi to seek that which is lying beneath the sky and outer space, hidden by maya?

    Why within? Why not without?

    Brahman is all-pervasive / omnipresent. If its present both inside and outside the bodies then why are we told by masters to seek the Self 'within' us? Why not seek the Brahman that is present in the air, water or outer space?

    Sadhguru on the cause of violence and its solution

    As far as i know, Yogis/Yoginis who attain samadhi and leave their bodies on their own free will are usually buried instead of being cremated. In her case she was cremated. After her death she was instantly cremated, without waiting for her father to arrive at her funeral rites. I wonder why...

    Have your ever heard someone say they can astral project into their own mind?

    No. In vedanta, the astral body (some call it the subtle body) IS the psyche/mind. The mind cannot astral project into the mind. That would be ridiculous.

But from what i've noticed is that, for most advaitin scholars or authors its the opposite. What really matters is that one needs to understand the...

In short, it is our ignorance, which gives rise to (as @ajay0 said) greed, desires, hatred, envy etc. Advaitins use the analogy of the sunlight and the moonlight to explain the difference between...
