Thinking that I am just a witness to the drama of life, it evokes a deep sense of non-attachment but also helplessness.

46:02 you have got the aim of all action: you have found the solution of the maze, you have completed all to do lists without ever starting any of it, eating is meant to satisfy hunger, but I do not want to satisfy hunger really, I do not know what will really give me satisfaction so I misidentify my desire for God with desire for food and go to the left road thinking it is the right road. This now is just the real purpose and path.

Aum . Thank you for your comprehensive explanation.

It's wise to not waste your time with wordly desires, like excessive gain in the sacrifice of liberation through jnana and bhakti, don't know everything but when you see some one work all week and spend their money on the pokies in a night and when they win they play it back into the machine whilst wasting their time two- fold and live miserably as a result while you could be studying religion basically for free on your phone and forfill all Desire, Hari Ommmm, work I guess is necessary but not a necessity.

Very existence of anti-library always led me to discard whole books in the library and attempt the life with no library, because it was stressful to see the unread books in my room, and gave me the sense of the fundamental futileness of book-knowledge. Being an unenlightened person though, I still needed some books so had to find myself buying some books which are exactly same as I used to have, that accumulates itself, anti-library increases, again total iconoclasm on books. I’m in no book period now and in the self-made fancy of aesthetic beauty, that this minimalist setting is very satisfactory and far superior than possession of many volumes. Still I have Bhgavadgita pdf file on my phone, app for the liturgy of the hours, and little more, all mobile.

Excellent swamiji! There are many so called teachers now who claim to be teaching advaita vedanta and abusing bhagavad-gita and krishna. I have recently come across one from Australia. I think that this session can give a better picture for such people to show them how ignorant they are although they claim to be teaching advaita vedanta.

20:01 consciousness doesn't change because it has no parts. And if there is a change it is an object and it is now awareness. Awareness itself cannot change.
