My response to query on an Upanishad Ganga episode video (in Hindi)
उपनिषद गंगा (full episode -34), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeQhGWck2Qo, 22 mins 26 secs, published on 8th Aug. 2018
In response to a public query to me, "Hope this beautiful episode of Upanishad Ganga will display with clarity a practical lesson on Advaita Teachings @RaviSaiIyer Sir..If can't completely kindly watch then(last 7mins i.e,15min to 22min must)..Sairam",
I responded on Twitter as follows:
Saw from 15 min onwards. I think the theoretical explanation is good. However there is big danger of being caught up in theory but not having the experience and instead getting into some fantasy. I think experience of changeless Atma via this kind of Jnana Marga requires sadhana and Vairagya which may not be possible for most people involved in regular worldly activity. Further, I think a living Guru who guides on such a path is vital as otherwise one can get led astray. Bhakti and Seva path is safer, IMHO, for ppl involved in worldlyactivity
