In this enlightening episode, Sheena and Pranav sit down with Swami Tarananda, President of the Ramakrishna Vedanta Centre New Zealand, for a deep and thoughtful discussion on the spiritual dimension of human existence. Building on a parable shared in a previous episode about a lion raised among sheep, Swamiji elaborates on how we are all divine spiritual beings, but ignorance causes us to misidentify with the body and mind.The conversation dives into the layers of human identity, beginning with the physical body, then moving to the mind or "subtle body," and finally to the innermost spiritual essence pure consciousness. Swamiji uses relatable metaphors such as ice, water, and vapor to explain these layers, as well as a powerful analogy of waves and the ocean to illustrate the eternal spiritual reality underlying all changing forms.Together, they explore questions around self-identity, ignorance, and the purpose of spiritual understanding, making the discussion particularly impactful for youth and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of who they truly are.This dialogue offers a blend of Vedantic philosophy, scientific metaphor, and practical wisdom, guiding listeners toward self-discovery and greater inner awareness.Support the show
