my Guru used to say: when one of the disciples of Adi Shankara Acharya asked Shankara "based on your teachings, your teaching is also not reality". Shankara replied "Yes, my teaching are also not reality but they are like a tiger in a dream. Even though the tiger in the dream is not real. It will wake you up from the dream"

As a physicist I find these teachings remarkable. Not only are they very concise and clear but they are totally supported by our current model of the way reality works. Swami is right of course when he says that quarks may be to found to be made of something else. Although they are regarded as fundamental ie they do not consist of any other particles, all particles are thought to be formed by waves in a 'sea of fields' which extend throughout the Universe. As to what this collection of fields is made from . . . . well, maybe that is Brahma? But isn't it amazing - now we no longer believe that there is any such thing as a 'solid' particle underlying all things, instead we have an infinite ocean of waves - just like the rishis suggested 5, 000 years ago. Incredible!

When I started learning about Indian thought and especially reading the upanishads, I quickly realized that Indian philosophy was about 2k-3k years ahead of western philosophy. Eastern philosophy was asking questions and talking about things before the common era that western philosophy was completely missing until the enlightenment. <br>Any modern student of philosophy will be familiar with Plato, Aristotle, Kant, etc. but they should just as well be studying the vedas, upanishads, and teachings of Buddha, and the Tao

My teacher's teacher was also Swami Dayananda Saraswati. These videos are a superb introduction into the vast, perfected science of Reality.. Also known as Traditional Vedanta.

That was exactly what I needed! Such clarity. So grateful. I was drawn to learn about all this as it compares to the most modern version of non-dual teachings through A Course in Miracles.
