This lecture is going to be an exciting one: Can You Become Enlightened From Watching YouTube Videos?
Despite the cheeky title, we're going to explore some of the subtlest linguistic mysticism ever: the Kashmir Shaiva development of the 5th CE sage Bhatrhari's claim of the śabdabrahman, the "sound Brahman".
Interestingly, it is a beautiful commentary on the opening of the Gospel of John, "in the beginning was the logos, the word."
What does it mean for the "word" to be "with" God and BE God? etc.
Then, using this linguistic mysticism as a foundation we'll expound on the "four levels of the Word", a central model in Non-Dual Shaivism which teaches us how to:
1. benefit truly from lectures, reading, studying etc.
2. "rewrite" limiting beliefs
3. empower mantas/do japa
And so much more!
