Episode notes
Faith Shapes Experience with God
- We do not experience oneness with the Supreme Self due to desires and worship of various finite forms.
- Faith in any form leads to results, but all arise from the one Supreme Self.
Yoga Maya Limits Supreme Knowledge
- The all-pervading Supreme Self is not accessible to everyone due to yoga maya, which limits our perception.
- Our understanding is veiled by this maya causing ignorance about the true unity of consciousness.
Science and Consciousness Align
- Modern science converges with the Gita in declaring consciousness fundamental and non-physical.
- Our perceived reality is an interface, a representation limited by senses and mind.
