That Which Agitates The Daily Vedantic
-
- Self-Improvement
James explores the ancient philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, exploring the concept of sin and agitation. Drawing from the wisdom found in the Vedas, the host contrasts Eastern philosophy with Western notions of sin and punishment. Rather than a cosmic judge tallying sins, Advaita Vedanta defines sin as that which agitates the inner peace. Through thought-provoking examples and reflections, listeners are invited to consider the repercussions of their actions and the profound satisfaction of aligning with what one ought to do. Ultimately, the episode emphasizes the intrinsic reward of inner peace and alignment with oneself and the universe, leaving listeners with a timeless mantra: "Nothing feels as good as doing what we ought to do."
The Daily Vedantic is a daily podcast and YouTube channel dedicated to the timeless wisdom of the Upanishads (https://www.thedailyvedantic.co). Dating back to over 5,000 years ago, the source of nearly all Eastern Philosophy, and loved by Western giants from Emerson to Thoreau to Carl Jung and Alan Watts, studied daily by Joseph Campbell to Aldous Huxley to Arthur Schopenhauer and countless others, The Daily Vedantic aims to make this ancient philosophy as modern and accessible as it is simple, practical — and profound.
