Advaita Vedanta - Being The Self

 



Advaita Vedanta, the philosophy of non-duality, is one of Hinduism’s most brilliant pearls. It is reserved for seekers of Truth who want to know their own essence and aspire to liberation, or mokṣa. It proposes the path of knowledge called jñāna-yoga and its main tool is self-inquiry: “who am I?” This question is an expression of the highest and noblest spiritual rebellion. Vedanta restores our dignity and accepts us as the only authority on who we are. It says that our self-exploration might lead us to discover our own nature as the Self beyond time and space.

David, Ben Yosef, Har-Zion, who writes under the pen name Prabhuji, is a writer, a painter, and an avadhūta mystic. Many consider him an enlightened spiritual master. When he was eight years old, he had a mystical experience that sparked his search for the Truth. Since then, he has devoted his life to deepening the early transformative experience that marked the beginning of his process of involution. For Prabhuji, awakening at the level of consciousness, or the transcendence of the egoic phenomenon, is the next step in humanity's evolution.
