Brahma-sūtra 1.1 Adhikaraṇa 4 Part 5—Vedantists' Objection
Channel: Consciousness Research Centre
Date: 2024-04-07

Namaste 🙏 We continue with the discussion between the Vṛttikāras, those who like to make a difference in Brahman, to create Brahman or the concept of Brahman as an object with duality, and the home team, the Vedāntins, those who follow the actual instructions of the Upaniṣads.

So what are those instructions? We've been talking here about how since Brahman is non-dual, it's not really possible to meditate on it directly. And yet this is what the Vṛttikāras would have us do. They want to say that we should meditate on Brahman directly. So what actually happens when you try to do that?

Well, you can get lost in a rabbit hole looking for Brahman.
