    Questions/Doubts/Unclear about Non-dualistic school of Vedanta (Advaita)? PLEASE HELP!!

    I am talking from absolute truth perspective from the starting. Obviously, we perceive the world as real but this is an illusion as per Advaita. So, from an absolute level, all that we currently perceive is false, material universe is false, Karma and reincarnation is false.

    Questions/Doubts/Unclear about Non-dualistic school of Vedanta (Advaita)? PLEASE HELP!!

    Hello ALL, I am coming back to RF after a long time. I have a few questions on my way to get an understanding of Advaita Vedanta. I was explaining this philosophy to a friend of mine who was very skeptical about Hinduism even though born in a Hindu family. Please I request the top advaitin...

    The ending of Indus Valley and the Saraswati civilization was due to the constant floods and drought in the Indus area and the drying up of the Saraswati river. This had caused a massive emigration of the habitants to safer and interior areas of the Indian subcontinent and even towards the west.

    What do you think about H. H. Wilson? He seems legit in his work which is based on Saayan. Namas Te - All of Rig Veda Samhita Use the links I provided to help you even more. There is mentioning of cows getting stolen and then recovered later on by Indra who uses Sarama. There are other many...

    The secret of the Veda - Google Books This is a preview version of the book. But it greatly makes you understand the Aurobindo point of view and spiritual understanding of the VEDAS, which greatly differs from the work done by western indologist. Welcome to 'Sri Aurobindo Kapali Sastry...

    I would say H. H. Wilson's translations are much more accurate version that is representative of Sayana's work compared to other western indologists.

    I don't consider them to be different. They are all valid to me from a spiritual angle. I am more inclined towards Advaita because this is what at the current moment I understand the best for the level of my consciousness. But that does not mean others are wrong. Rig Veda says "EKAM SAD VIPRA...

    Rig Veda talks about Saraswati River which dried up in ~2500- 3500 BC, puts Rig Veda more than 6000 years back. Mueller intent was not purely clean in translating the VEDAS. When the foundation of thoughts was at fault, how can you use their corrupt translations. They came up with a myth...
