Advaita Explained Without Jargon - Clear Precise

[V Subrahmanian]

In this deeply insightful conversation, some of the most challenging and often-misunderstood questions on Advaita Vedānta are answered with rare clarity and precision by Young Scholar Vidwan Shankararama Sharma. What truly distinguishes Advaita from other schools of Vedānta? If we clearly perceive a world of differences, how does the tradition affirm that Reality is One? Where do “you” and “I” fit into non-duality? Can the dream analogy explain our everyday experience? How does the limited jīva relate to the infinite Brahman—does Advaita really imply “I am God”?

The discussion also addresses pressing, practical concerns: Do we need to renounce normal life to live Vedānta? How is this knowledge useful for an ordinary seeker today? And what small, meaningful steps—śravaṇa, manana, nididhyāsana—can help a beginner progress steadily?
