More about the Course

    Drg-drshya-viveka expounds the methodology of distinguishing the 'Seer' (Drg) and the 'seen' (drshya) thereby establishing the Truth that 'I am the Seer and not the seen'.

Through Drg-drshya-viveka, the author helps us to ascertain our identity with the supreme Brahman and guides us in meditation so that we can realise our true nature of unconditional Bliss and end all sorrows for all time.

The text starts with the inquiry into the individual, then into the world and points out that the substratum of both is one and the same.

The first section deals with the inquiry into the individual that leads to the ‘drg’, the seer. The author points out Consciousness to be the ultimate seer. In the process of inquiry, the nature of the ego is analysed in detail and also its relationship with various layers of the individual’s personality.

The second section deals with inquiry into the world. The nature of the world is expounded to be nothing but name and form, with Consciousness as the substratum. The theory of maya and how its powers create the world is briefly expounded.

In the third section, 6 types of meditations are explained to realise the Consciousness. It is pointed out that Consciousness is the substratum of the individual as well as the world indicating thereby the identity of the jiva and Brahman.

The final section deals with the result of this Self-knowledge.

What You will Learn

  • An inquiry into our real nature (Self) and how the ego causes the misapprehensions about our real nature
  • The true nature of the individual:
  • The real nature of the world
  • The identity between the individual and the total
  • The practice of meditation and abidance
  • The fruit of Knowledge

Why should I do this Course?

  • Drg-drshya-viveka, also termed as ‘Vakya-sudha,’ elaborates the mahavakya “tat tvam asi” that shows the identity between the jiva and Brahman. The text bases on our own experiences and takes us logically, in steps, to the Truth.
  • All of us seek completeness, be it the eternality of our Existence, the fullness of Knowledge or sustained happiness. This is Liberation. It is our true nature itself and this is expounded by the text through a systemic inquiry.
  • The text, being a prakarana-grantha, gives enormous concept clarity and helps seekers gain entry into advanced texts like the Upanishads.

Requirements

  • Basic knowledge of Vedanta would be helpful, though not mandatory
  • Good internet connection
