The Simple Truth of Advaita


Advaita Vedānta insists that Truth is not complex but startlingly simple. It is not an achievement to be won, but the ever-present awareness in which body, mind, and world appear. Yet we miss it: the weak intellect assumes it is too difficult and looks away; the strong intellect insists it cannot be so simple and keeps objectifying it. Like mistaking a rope for a snake, our confusion persists until the obvious shines forth—I am that awareness itself. The simplicity is disarming only because it was never hidden.

Intelligence Over Materialism: A Path to Contentment


The journey toward inner simplicity is crucial, as true freedom comes from awareness rather than the mere absence of possessions. Outer simplicity may provide some freedom, but it doesn’t guarantee inner peace. An intelligent understanding of one’s relationship with possessions fosters true contentment and societal cooperation without the need for external validation or authority.
