In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. Religion, mysticism, Buddhism, therapy, philosophy, science, and psychology each glimpse part of the truth — but never the whole. This essay shows why these half-truths keep seekers circling, and how Vedanta alone opens both eyes to reveal freedom as the self itself.

Why does anything exist? Vedanta calls this the unanswerable question. Maya is inscrutable—neither real nor unreal, only apparently real. This essay explores why “why” itself collapses, and why freedom lies not in explanation but in awakening.

Jnana in Vedanta means not ordinary knowledge but Self-knowledge: the recognition “I am the Self.” Only this direct knowledge removes ignorance and grants liberation.

Many spiritual circles hope for a collective awakening — a golden age when society itself becomes enlightened. This essay shows why Vedanta denies such a possibility.

A jnani is one who has realized the truth of the Self through Vedanta. Outwardly ordinary, inwardly free, the jnani abides in unshakable knowledge: “I am Brahman.”

A comparative reflection on Buddhism and Vedanta—how Vipassana prepared the ground through dissolution, and how Vedānta completes the journey through revelation of the Self.
