Hari Om!

In this talk and all following talks, we find Swami Aparajitanandaji's explanations leading us to an astonishing treasure hunt wherein a clue is given and when solved, we find next clue hidden therein and so on.

Bhagavān Adi Shankaracharya ji summarises teachings of Upanishads (points to jīva-Brahma aikya) through a very systematic mode of enquiry which is very curious, exciting and fascinating.

Swamiji explains the concepts at great length also quoting from Vivekachūdāmani, Bhagavad Gītā and other texts where necessary.
