[VedantRajdeep]

The urge to be in a relationship is so strong that we refuse to live in facts. We don't know the facts; we live in fancies.

The beauty of life lies in learning, we live to be liberated, we live to grow, to become better.

[VedantRajdeep]

Duryodhana is a dark example of a wasted human life.

[VedantRajdeep]

If tomorrow will be more bondaged, then time/life is just torture and torment.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Body vs Consciousness

1. The body is hungry for food; the consciousness is hungry for realization and light.
2. The appetite for food decreases with intake of food.
3. On the other hand, the more you get into realization, the more you want it.

[VedantRajdeep]

Duryodhana cannot stab Shri Krishna in his back; he was an honest enemy!
~ AP Ji

Gita is everybody's destiny.

[VedantRajdeep]

Another name for ego is "self-illusion" and "self-delusion".

If you are attached to someone, then check-out the worth you accord to them. Do they even deserve that much importance?

[VedantRajdeep]

Duality is the mother suffering. Where there are two, there is war - There can be no other relationship between two.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Life of a man is limited, so, the window for the ego to dissolve into the Truth is limited. Limited, not just by life span, but also by elasticity of the consciousness.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

The beatuy of flow of time/life lies in the hope that tomorrow you'll be more enlightened, liberated and free.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Where do all problems of the self and the world comes from?

1. Lack of self-knowledge.
2. Because you don't know who you are, so, you create a mess within and without.

~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Ego can stretch itself so far away from Truth, that meeting again can become impossible.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Faith comprises of looking anything that is ugly and immediately declaring that this is coming from lack of self-knowledge.
~ AP Ji

[VedantRajdeep]

Immediately admit and acknowledge that "I am in a problem and the only reason is lack of self-knowledge, irrespective of the problem".
~ AP Ji
