The Six Proofs of Reality #243
Though the existence of Divine Reality has never needed proof in India, the rishis of several darshanas took the time and pains to show living beings the well-reasoned facts about Truth and Brahman, however obvious it was to them. Sankhya and Vedanta are two of these pathways, with the Puranas following suit. On the wisdom chart here are stated many of these proofs, pramana, accompanied by their English definitions. These will aid the seeker in deducing the powerful evidence that each of them contain. They all deserve and require deep contemplation over time, so that the reticent and resistant mind/ego complex will finally give up all futile arguments and accept what the seers have been both affirming and enjoying for millennia.

The Six Treasures of God #235
As a positive indicator of true power, and what to seek in spiritual life, this teaching accents the beneficial forces that flow from Divine Reality. Since many beings are mislead into seeking the occult powers of this world, accessing them through a mind that is misguided by beings who take material force to be the ultimate goal, a distinction must be made that reveals what transcends earthly pursuits, leading to Enlightenment. As an inspiring accompaniment to this wisdom chart, the Six Divine Powers of God are also listed — one of them being the human being, a positive power of God when he/she is in knowledge of true power and its uses.

The State & Characteristics of a Jivanmukta #46
The incomparable soul, called a jivanmukta, and the state of jivanmukti itself, have long been an important feature of advanced spirituality, both sought after and lauded by the luminaries of Mother India. Like enlightened bookends presiding over a long sweep of time, the ancient and hoary seer, Lord Vasishtha, and the more recent luminary, Adishankara, both had much to say about the state of a jivanmukta – a “living liberated” soul.

The True Meaning of Moksha/Mukti #104
Opinions and theories about the nature of freedom abound, from personal to political, from enjoyment of leisure to the freedom to express oneself, from the power to restrict to the ability to commit violence on others — and, of course, the freedom to do anything one wants. But all of these forms of so-called freedom are relative, are found in relativity. They suffer their opposite side, called failure and bondage. Mother India has always known the true meaning of Freedom. First, it is spiritual in nature, and secondly, it is the very nature of the Soul. In other words, it cannot be created, produced, or generated. It does not come about in time, nor happen over the course of evolution. It is not a product of transformation, nor does it manifest on account of purification or practice. It is a principle always and already at hand. It knows no bondage for it is “Ever-Free, Never Bound.”

Vedanta, Theology, and Science #51
Whether a follower of religion, a student of philosophy, or an aspirant after Enlightenment utilizing the many inner tools and practices of spirituality, the seeker today is often confused and overwhelmed by contrasting views in the world around him/her. The three most prominent views in terms of convincing authority are science for the modern man, religion for the devotional person, and Vedanta for the free thinker and transcendentalist. Evolution, Genesis, and Nonorigination, respectively, are the main topics of these three high-minded schools of thought. When put side by side in comparison with one another, interesting juxtapositions get noticed, and doubts and confusion can be set aside for all time.
