Video Information: Shabdyog Session, 04.07.2019, Advait BodhSthal, Greater Noida, India

Description:
In this video, Acharya ji discusses the purpose of life, emphasizing that it is closely tied to our personal experiences and the challenges we face. He suggests that life is essentially about how we experience the present moment, including our past memories and future imaginations.

Acharya ji encourages viewers to identify what troubles them in their lives and to delve deeply into these issues. He argues that finding solutions to the core of our troubles can reveal the true purpose of life. He uses the metaphor of an uncomfortable chair to illustrate that focusing on superficial problems distracts us from addressing the fundamental issues that cause our discomfort.

He further explains that the purpose of life is to gain freedom from limitations and to challenge our boundaries. Acharya ji warns against pursuing goals dictated by others, as this can lead to disappointment and a sense of failure. Instead, he advocates for setting personal goals that resonate with one's internal condition. He concludes by stating that even if one fails while pursuing a meaningful challenge, that effort can still be considered a success.


Context:
O son, you have become habitual of thinking "I am body" since long. Experience the Self and by this sword of knowledge cut that bondage and be happy.
~ Ashtavakra Gita (Chapter 1, verse 14)

~ How can I not be the body?
~ Does body really have a separate identity?
~ How to test that I and the body are two different identities?
