Is the world we experience truly real — or more like a dream we haven't woken up from? What do you think of Ramana's argument from the dream state? Let us know below.

Closer to Truth is refreshing with new ideas. Ramana is a favourite subject and this is an insightfful conversation.

Michael is a wonderful person. It's actually impossible to describe what is being the Self, it's only possible to be a finger pointing... Real knowledge to Ramana is pure being without any objects. Thinking, names and forms, all are objects in time. Awareness by itself as the fundamental primordial only reality is what words are trying to explain here, impossible.

This statement by Michael of returning ego to pure Self is the crux of the matter.

If each of the hundreds of C2T video represents a single step on an enormous Stairway to Heaven, symbolizing the great spectrum of the wisdom of human consciousness, then these interviews with Michael James are among the highest steps leading into the Kingdom Truth at the top. It doesn't get much more Real than this.

Btw, Robert’s difficulty in grasping what he’s being told in the beginning is completely natural. The mind will recoil at this information. I think it’s actually the Ego that is recoiling. Coming to this realization is a process for most of us. It just wasn’t for Sri Ramana, it was more instantaneous with him. But if you keep following this line of enquiry, eventually the Ego will step back and Pop! 💥 You will understand. Maybe not to the level Sri Ramana did, but enough that it is a profound moment. Keep following this line daily… for it is the Truth. You are not the body or the mind…

Amazing interview. Thank you so much for this episode, Robert. Been waiting for something like this for a very long time.<br><br>I've always felt that science ignores the knower which is the human mind.and that's a bit of a blindspot. Hopefully we will see the emergence of a field of study that combines Advaita Vedanta and modern physics.
