"Tattva Bodha - Day 07 / 10" Talk in English by Swami Aparajitananda, Chinmaya Mission Mangaluru.

Hari Om! Bhagavān Shankarāchārya ji takes up samashti vichāra and focuses on cause of Creation and method of origin of 24 (twenty four) basic principles defining the world. Swāmi Aparājitānandaji explains the above amazing concepts, which have the thrill of suspense and charm of a fairy tale, very aptly and in an engrossing manner. DON'T MISS: the beautiful verse giving the essence of the entire scriptures quoted and explained by Swamiji which is a dialogue between teacher and student and how the teacher guides the student's attention from the outer world to the Inner Reality. The wonder called world: • What is the message given by the scriptures about the first and foremost priority of our life? • What is the cause of this creation? • How has the knowledge of evolution of the world evolved? • What are the 24 (twenty four) principles from which the world has come into being? • What is the difference between Ātmā and Brahman? • What is Māyā? What are its 3 (three) powers? • Which are the 4 (stages) of evolution? • What is tanmātrā? • What are the properties inherited by the 5 subtle elements? • How do the organs of knowledge come into existence? • What is antahakarna? • What are sankalpa and vikalpa? • What is buddhi? • What is chittam? • What is aham vritti? • What is ahankāra? • Who are the presiding deities of the mind and intellect? Why? • What is the meaning of Rudra? • What is the meaning of Vāsudeva? • How do the organs of action come into existence? • What is 'andha-pangu' nyāya? • Who are the energisers for the pancha karmendriyas? How did they come into existence? (Tattvabodha - Talk 7 of 10)
