This dialogue explores the challenges seekers face in spiritual practice, from external distractions to deep-rooted karmic patterns and the central knot of ego—the “I” thought. Partho explains how true progress comes from dissolving this doership, realizing life as a play, and recognizing oneself as an instrument rather than the actor. The conversation explores liberation, detachment, and the transition from worldly attachments to higher awareness, culminating in the experience of awakening as a blissful completeness that transcends loneliness and need.00:00 Trailer00:06 Theme of obstructions in Sadhana02:28 Sources of difficulties: Conditioning, Karma, or Environment05:09 "I" as the central knot of Ego07:08 The deepest knot: ego and the “I-not”12:01 Life as a play: acting without identification16:53 Waking up: Dissolving Doership 20:18 Walk out as a free will 21:56 Infinite possibilities beyond the play 26:38 Losing interest in worldly pursuits29:57 No loneliness in awakening: Light, Bliss, and Completeness

In this profound conversation, Partho discusses the concept of the 10th Vishnu avatar—Kalki—not as a future male warrior, but as a feminine embodiment already present on Earth. Interpreting evil as spiritual immaturity rather than moral crime, the talk between Kunal and Partho redefines the Kalki avatar as a cosmic force meant to elevate consciousness. Drawing from Sri Aurobindo and The Mother’s evolutionary vision, they argue that true transformation lies not in fixing systems, but in awakening the spirit through divine grace and higher awareness.

It examines the shift from a “modern mind” to a surrendered, witnessing consciousness that flows with the universe.

Partho states examples from Sri Aurobindo, the Mother, and divine avatars, which illustrate how divine action and spiritual transformation transcend ordinary human faculties.

Dive into one of the most radical teachings of the Ashtavakra Gita: you are the all-pervading, blemishless, self-luminous consciousness by Partho and Kunal. In this discussion, Partho elaborates how we mistakenly identify with body and mind due to conditioning, and how true knowledge dissolves the illusion. If you’re seeking clarity on Vedanta’s most subtle truths, this is the episode you need to watch!

In this deep dive into the Ashtavakra Gita, speakers Partho and Kunal explore the nature of the Self (Atman) as the eternal, detached witness—actionless, desireless, and all-pervading. Using analogies like waves on the ocean and virtual reality headsets, Partho explains Vedantic principles like apparent reality (Mithya), reflected self (Abhasa), and non-duality, guiding listeners toward the recognition of the Self beyond perception and identification.

This thought-provoking conversation explores a Vedantic shloka that states: “One who considers oneself free is free; one who considers oneself bound is bound.” But who is thinking .. freedom from what?

Through reflections on shraddha (deep belief), spiritual freedom, and the illusion of worldly reality, the speakers delve into the nature of bondage, self-perception, and the layers of ignorance that obscure the atman.

The discussion highlights that liberation is not just positive thinking but a deep-rooted inner conviction — a lived truth rather than superficial affirmation.
