Atma means the Self.  To know the Self is the purpose of evolution and human life.  Bodha means knowledge.  Through Atmabodha, Sri Adi Shankaracharya introduces us to fundamental concepts in Vedanta and helps us to discriminate between the Self & not-self.  In this text, there are many beautiful analogies, especially from nature, which constantly remind us of our Divine nature.  Please support this podcast by pressing the follow button and support Chinmaya Mission Mumbai projects taken up by Swami Swatmananda, through generous donations.
