In this illuminating class, Acharya Tadany stressed the importance of precise spiritual language to avoid confusion (e.g., “consciousness,” “awareness,” “empathy” carry different meanings across people), so he bridged these powers to the central teaching of ātmā: the eternal, unchanging consciousness that exists beyond the body, pervading and enlivening it without being limited by or identified with it — illustrated by …
