Swami Sarvapriynanda conducts a Q&A session following the discourse on "The Essence of All Vedanta" (Based on Mandukya Karika). List of Questions:
0:10 - Consciousness is witness or (sakshi) of what is happening around us. Just like we(eg: human beings) are witnessing everything (all the things happening in the world, body mind etc), concsciousness is also a witness. So if consciousness is a witness, who or what is making the choices that we are seeing around us or even within us?
14:43 - If the world is a manifestation of our thoughts, then how do everyone in the world project the same world (for eg: we all see the same flower etc). Why not different worlds?
20:56 - If Brahman is everything (doer and the done, seer and the seen etc), what is role/purpose/significance of Karma?
29:00 - Do laws of physics apply to an enlighted person?
37:00 - What is confusion? How did we become seperate from Turiya and why/where did this confusion start/occur?

ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
