The Ashtavakra Gita is the purest expression of nondual truth. It strips away every support, every method, and every illusion of progress. Ashtavakra speaks from the standpoint of absolute freedom, where the Self alone exists and nothing else has ever been real. The book is not a philosophy to study but a mirror for direct recognition. It points you inward, past thought, past effort, into the silent Awareness that is already complete. My commentary explores this as a lived realization rather than a doctrine. You see how the sense of being a doer, seeker, or knower dissolves in the light of ...

The Contents of this audiobook are the collective ideas, thoughts and words of the great scholars of our time on the origin of our civilization from the very beginning, nay even before that, as hinted by the enlightened Rishis in the Vedas. I merely put them in one place and with profound humility beg forgiveness for any unintentional transgressions or inadequacies.

This work invites the reader on a philosophical voyage to the outer edges of human consciousness. At its center stands Ramakrishna—not as a saint to be worshiped, nor as a religious teacher bound by tradition, but as a living paradox, a manifestation of the tension between the spirit’s form and its essence. He is presented not through the mist of legend or the reverence of devotees, but as the embodiment of the eternal struggle between experience and system, between the immediacy of revelation and the cold architecture of institutionalized faith.

More than 2,500 years ago, Patanjali described the Yamas and Niyamas in his Yoga Sutras as attitudes and behaviors, and as central prerequisites for a dharmic life. We love and value these virtues, yet it is extremely rare to meet someone who not only demands them of others but also embodies them in their own behavior. This audiobook introduces the Yamas and Niyamas and presents them as readings from the book The Guru Plays Golf for listening, reviewing, deepening, and cultivating. Every life is unique!
