Ashtavakra (trad.)

6 key ideas, each explained in our own words.

Ashtavakra Gita

IDEA 1
You are the witness, already free
The sage Ashtavakra tells King Janaka that he is not the body or the mind but the awareness watching them, and that this awareness is already free.
IDEA 2
Bondage is a belief
If you think of yourself as bound, you feel bound; if you see you are free, you are free. Much of our suffering rests on what we believe about ourselves.
IDEA 3
Waves on an ocean
The world rises and falls in awareness like waves on the sea, without disturbing the ocean itself. Events change; what knows them stays steady.
