Fundamental Truths of Vedanta According to Swami Vivekananda
Fundamental Truths of Vedanta According to Swami Vivekananda
1. The inherent divinity of man.
2. The non-duality of the Ultimate Reality, ofBrahman or Atman.
3. The ultimate Reality as Brahman or the Absolute of Philosophy, is also the Intimate Reality as Iswara or God, of religion.
4. The Ultimate Reality as the Atman becomes capable, of not just a belief in Him, but of the realization or experience or anubhava of Him, by man.
5. Such anubhava, and the struggle towards it, constitutes dynamic spirituality, and the true meaning of religion, and not just a belief in His existence and a static piety based on it.
6. Such dynamic spirituality means the steady spiritual growth of man, or his growth in his spiritual dimension, by developing increasing awareness by him of his inborn divine nature.
7. Such spiritual growth is to be achieved by man in the context of his life and work by the comprehensive spiritual technique of Yoga as taught in the Bhagavad Gita, which bridges the gulf between the secular and the scared,
between life and religion.
