Teachings
The core ideas.
Seven keys to the house of non-duality, each explained plainly.
01
Brahman
The one reality, without a second, of which all things are appearances.
02
Atman
The Self — your deepest nature, found to be identical with Brahman.
03
Maya
The power by which the one appears as many. Neither real nor unreal.
04
The three states
Waking, dreaming, deep sleep — and the fourth (turiya) that witnesses all three.
05
The five sheaths
Body, breath, mind, intellect, bliss — layers mistaken for the Self.
06
Witness awareness
Sakshi: the unchanging knower of every changing experience.
07
Neti neti
'Not this, not this' — the method of negating all that can be observed.
