In this episode of Summa Iru, we tackle India’s gradual drift away from its rich spiritual heritage while the West eagerly embraces it. Why are we abandoning the ancient wisdom that holds the key to our happiness and societal harmony? Join us as we explore how ignorance (Avidya) is at the root of today’s suffering—from crime to anxiety—and why spirituality is more relevant than ever. We’ll dive into the science of Consciousness, the truth behind the waking, dreaming, and deep sleep states, debunk excuses like smoking up as 'Shiva’s prasad'. We investigate and challenge atheism’s narrow worldview, offering a fresh perspective on the mysteries of life. If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s more to life than what meets the eye, this episode is for you!
