Send us a textCan the self be both everything and nothing? Join Rahul N Singh on this captivating journey through the intricate landscapes of Advaita Vedanta and its philosophical interplay with Buddhism. This episode is an invitation to unlock profound insights into the nature of consciousness, challenging conventional perspectives and embracing the ineffable essence of the self. By juxtaposing Advaita's assertion of the self as Brahman with Buddhism's notion of no-self, we uncover how both traditions strive to communicate the same timeless truth. With a focus on the formless, blissful, and boundless nature of reality, the discussion ventures beyond the limitations of language, pointing towards a transcendent understanding of our true nature.As we navigate through the nuanced interplay of concepts like non-duality and mithya, the episode addresses community feedback and the inherent challenges of articulating non-dualistic ideas. Rahul shares his reflections on how Advaita Vedanta's recognition of all forms as expressions of Brahman maintains the functional reality we experience daily without reducing the richness of the human experience. This is a thoughtful exploration that prompts listeners to look past words and concepts, embracing a deeper experiential grasp of the self. Engage with the complexities and paradoxes of existence, and discover how to balance the mystical with the practical in our everyday lives.Join our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/hnRf7wESwX Visit my website: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/Buy The Bearded Mystic Podcast Merch: https://thebeardedmysticpodcast.myshopify.com/Want a one-on-one spiritual discussion with The Bearded Mystic - book here: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/p/spiritual-discussion/Subscribe to The Bearded Mystic Podcast channel: https://www.youtube.com/ @TheBeardedMysticPodcastBecome a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/thebeardedmysticpodcastRahul on Bluesky:  https://bsky.app/profile/beardedmystic.bsky.socialSupport the show
