Spirituality is often seen as complex, abstract, and out of reach—but it doesn’t have to be. In this post, I offer a simplified roadmap for anyone seeking clarity on the deeper truths of existence. Drawing from Advaita Vedanta, personal experience, and core teachings on consciousness, ego, and happiness, this guide brings together 12 foundational posts that explain the essence of the spiritual journey. Whether you are new to this path or revisiting it with fresh eyes, this curated approach will help you understand the central principles that lead to self-realization.
If you want to know more systematically, then after going through all the below 12 posts, read my book “Happiness & Consciousness” (only around 120 pages), which ties all these aspects together – you can buy it for Rs. 252 here – https://www.amazon.in/Happiness-Consciousness-Your-Guide-Enlightenment-ebook/dp/B08CT7X4NH/)
But, all along when reading the below posts, remember to focus on the answers and perspectives they are giving on the following three concepts (all three of which are inter-related & interdependent, one sort of implying or entailing the other):
— The world is just names-and-forms, so unreal/only an appearance
— We as the ego-I are not the thinker-doer
— Happiness is inside and not outside
