In today’s episode of The Daily Vedantic, we explore the profound Advaita Vedanta concept of Sakshi—the inner witness. This timeless practice teaches that you are not your thoughts, emotions, or even your body, but rather the awareness behind them. Learn how witnessing your inner world helps you detach from pain, ego, and misidentifications. Through Shravana (listening), Manana (reflection), and Nididhyasana (meditation), you can disidentify with mental noise and rest in pure consciousness. This isn't just theory—it’s transformation through awareness.

The Daily Vedantic is a daily podcast and YouTube channel dedicated to the timeless wisdom of the Upanishads (https://thedailyvedantic.com/). Dating back to over 5,000 years ago, the source of nearly all Eastern Philosophy, and loved by Western giants from Emerson to Thoreau to Carl Jung and Alan Watts, studied daily by Joseph Campbell to Aldous Huxley to Arthur Schopenhauer and countless others, The Daily Vedantic aims to make this ancient philosophy as modern and accessible as it is simple, practical — and profound.
