Episode 0359 - Paths to the Summit (Advanced)
(Click on the above link, or here, for audio.)


Comparing the Buddhist view of spiritual path with other traditions -- unique features of Buddha-Dhamma, particularly compared to Advaita Vedanta. Comparative views of selfhood, spiritual path & ultimate practice-goal. Dualistic perception in higher states of consciousness, final release from all dukkha & ignorance. From metta (loving-kindness) and ahimsa (harmlessness) to jhanas (meditative absorbtions) and true freedom from avidya (ignorance)-based subjectivity. Spirit, soul and Higher Self; the value of a 7-ray comparative approach. Advaita Vedanta: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advaita... Chuang Tzu (Complete Works, trans.
