In this illuminating class, Acharya Tadany completed the exploration of the three states of experience (avasthā-trayam) by unveiling deep sleep (suṣupti avasthā) as the domain of the causal body (kāraṇa śarīram), where the gross and subtle bodies temporarily resolve, leaving only the dual experience of total ignorance (ajñānam) and profound bliss (ānanda), a state so complete that we wake refreshed …

In this class, Acharya Tadany questions the comforting illusion that a “pure mind” alone grants mokṣa, revealing through Krishna’s words that mental purity is merely the prerequisite soil while jñāna (Self-knowledge) is the seed that actually flowers into liberation, I.e., without deliberate planting through śravaṇam, mananam, and nididhyāsanam, even the cleanest mind remains barren. He masterfully unpacked the three layered …

In this landmark centenary class, Acharya Tadany delivered the final knockout blow to the illusion of conditional happiness by proving, through Śaṅkara’s razor-sharp logic and the immortal Yājñavalkya-Maitreyī dialogue from the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad, that nothing in the universe is loved for its own sake. Everything is loved only for the sake of the Self. And the means (sādhanam) like money, …

When the mind closes itself, the other is no longer seen as a complex human being and is instead reduced to labels, categories, and simplistic judgments.

Living, then, ceases to be an anxious attempt to secure results and becomes a daily exercise in lucidity, surrender, and alignment with the greater intelligence of life.

In this class, Acharya Tadany turned Arjuna’s battlefield paralysis into a mirror for every modern seeker, i.e., the Gītā does not ask you to run away from family, job, society, or emotions, or even your WhatsApp groups. it commands you to stay exactly where you are and transform your daily duties into the most powerful yoga possible.

You are not preparing to live, you are already alive. The breath in your lungs is the only permission slip you need. Stop waiting. Start being. We all crave existence.
