Who am I beyond the body and mind?
What is my true identity?
Can lasting happiness be discovered through Self-knowledge?

In these discourses from the Advaita Awakening Youth Retreat 2023, Swami Advayananda unfolds Atmabodha, the celebrated introductory text on Advaita Vedanta composed by Sri Adi Sankaracharya.

Atmabodha is a foundational work in Indian philosophy that systematically reveals the nature of the Self through logic, discrimination, and clear metaphors. It explains the difference between the Self and the body-mind complex, the meaning of ignorance (avidya), and how Self-knowledge alone removes limitation and sorrow. The central vision of non-duality (Advaita) is unfolded in a manner that is both intellectually rigorous and contemplatively profound.

Addressed especially to youth, these talks make classical Advaita Vedanta accessible without compromising its depth. Swamiji explores themes central to every seeker:

– Who am I — really?
– What is the nature of consciousness?
– Why do success and achievement fail to give lasting fulfilment?
– How does Self-enquiry lead to clarity and inner freedom?
– What is the role of discrimination (viveka) in spiritual growth?

This album is ideal for students of Vedanta, young seekers exploring identity and purpose, and anyone interested in non-duality, Self-enquiry, and spiritual growth rooted in authentic tradition.

Through the timeless wisdom of Atmabodha, listeners are guided towards clarity of identity, freedom from inner conflict, and the discovery of the ever-present Self.
