@ajay0,
1. Do you still believe that Brahman in an Absolute and Sheathless state can do all the thinking, willing, witnessing?
2. Some other advaitin in another forum was saying that Brahman in its Absolute state can do no thinking, witnessing or willing.
If his statement is true, then how does...
I wish you all a Happy Durga Puja 2021. Here you can share photos (taken by you) of Durga idols and even photos of the exteriors of pandals/tents where the idols are normally kept.
Due to crowd i usually avoid visiting the pandals/tents but back in 2019 when there was no covid, one of my friend...
Thanks ajay0 :) So i guess once we (from this plane of multiplicity) transcend to the plane of non-duality and experience that bliss or become ONE with that bliss, while being in the body, all sorts of ego, mental activities, attachment and even duality disappears. Right? ... Now after his...
It is Brahman who puts Itself in avidya/ignorance/bondage with the help of its maya shakti. Such is the belief of one of the sub-schools of advaita. I don't remember which, but one of them (either bhamati or vivarna) says that Brahman is the locus of avidya.
I think all sorts of multiplicity...
We clearly know we are not the body but something else. Something spiritual.
The non-dualist hindus believe the functions of mind/ego are witnessed by the Higher Self (Brahman) in a dream state ... and the inactive or idle condition of the mind/ego are also witnessed by the Higher Self...
That's some serious fasting you're doing. The longest I've fasted is 1 and a half day without food. Not for religious purpose but as an experient, to observe how long i can survive without a bite. lol. But that was a long time ago. Now if i skip even a day's lunch i start feeling dizzy. May you...
Same here brother. Looks like we have something in common ;) ... But even then i wouldn't wear sheets with holes in em. Isn't that something kids usually do on halloween?
I read a book long ago where there was a mention of a festival called 'Samhain' which was celebrated before Halloweeen became popular. On the night of Samhain the veil between the physical world and the spirit world becomes thin and on this night the spirits of the dead come down to Earth where...
When you see yoga poses like this, the very first thought that comes to your mind is... "Damn she must be possessed or something." ... In my opinion, every yoga centre should have an exorcist. Just sayin'.
I know what you're talking about. Even though I'm a Millenial (born between 1981-96) i'm often being overtaken by Generation Z pedestrians (who are born between 1997-2012). The current gen needs to slow down and let the senior and elderly citizens pass first. ;)
Ladies and Gentlemen, on one side of the ring, we have @JustGeorge weighing in 250 pounds and on the other side we have @mangalavara, weighing in 105 pounds. That's right. This is gonna be a helluva fight. And this is for the world heavyweight championship.
Joining me in the commentary are...
Does the body starts to fall apart once we hit the 30s? At what age do you start to feel old?
I'm in my early 30s but i often feel exhausted. Things that i loved doing like running, cycling, travelling in my mid twenties, i can't do anymore. What are your thoughts?
We're all surrounded by such two-faced people. They act goody-goody infront of us but will say toxic things behind your back. Its better to avoid such company.
