  • Introduction4:11
  • The Eternal Seeker13:47

    We all want to be free from suffering and experience lasting happiness, feel fulfilled, limitless and complete.

    We desire whatever it is that can remove suffering and bring happiness.

    In fact, desire seems to drive everything we do.

    Going to work, what we do at home, spending time with friends and relatives. All this

    In one way or another, is driven by your desire to avoid suffering and enjoy happiness.

    Desire ultimately provides the stimulus or motivation for all our actions. All desires have something in common that is when desires are unfulfilled we suffer, we feel unfulfilled, and we feel that something is missing.

    But by fulfilling desires, we seek to remove that feeling of being deficient or incomplete.

    In This Session, we will examine if fulfilling the desires is the source of happiness?

  • The Steps For Assimilation10:14

    Before we go into Self enquiry, in this session we will see the three Steps of assimilating or understanding this inquiry, by which it will really work for us.

  • Wealth, Power, Friends & Family15:32

    In this session, we will begin Self Enquiry, the process of discovering our true selves. This inquiry will culminate in the 10th session.


    We will try to find the answer to the question, "Who or What am I?".

    Basically, this question is, us human beings, what is it that we think of ourselves.

    Starting with an answer from a common person to very advanced philosophical answers, with each session we will arrive at a more sophisticated answer until we reach the real answer, to the question, "who am I?"


    From today we are starting with Neti-Neti meditation, Neti-Neti means Not this-Not this.

    this meditation process helps us to detach ourselves from restrictive ideas of self. It is a process of systematically dropping everything that I understand is not me. As we go deeper into self-inquiry our meditation practice will also become deeper with it.

Description

Every human being seeks lasting happiness and freedom from suffering. Regardless of background, status, or circumstance, the universal goal is the same: to find completeness and overcome misery. Yet, most of us search outside ourselves, unaware that the true source of fulfillment lies within.

This course offers the direct path of Self-Inquiry (Atma Vichara), a core practice of Jnana Yoga (the Yoga of Knowledge). Made famous by the sage Sri Ramana Maharshi and rooted in the ancient Upanishads, this method investigates the question "Who Am I?" to dismantle the mistaken identity that causes suffering.

What You Will Discover:

The Root Cause of Suffering: Understand how ignorance of your true nature creates pain, regardless of external circumstances.

The Direct Path: Learn a practical method of inquiry that relies on reason and experience, not blind belief.

Inner Freedom: Move beyond the noise of daily existence to listen to the music of your true self.

Accessibility: No mystical experiences or extraordinary states required. This path uses what is available to you right now.

Is This Course For You?

This path does not demand belief. Instead, it invites you to question, reason, and verify the truth through your own experience. Whether you are a spiritual seeker looking for clarity or someone seeking relief from mental suffering, this course provides the tools to discover what you truly are.

Begin the inquiry today. The answer is closer than you think.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone with a spiritual yearning, a longing towards the truth and reality.
  • Spiritual Freedom through experience and understanding.
