For the third year in a row, Andre Vas was in Europe to teach the infinitely enriching knowledge of Vedanta. Before the seminar began, we took a walk through the picturesque German town of Kleve, not far from the Dutch border, in the serene Rhine basin.

As editors of vedanta.nl, we were pleasantly surprised to discover Ferit Arav’s website (arav.live). The website is as modest in design as the man himself. Its content is a treasure trove of predominantly Vedantic texts in Dutch, entirely in the spirit of Vedanta, and freely available.

Sanskrit is the language in which Vedanta is revealed. The unique layering of Sanskrit words is unparalleled. The pronunciation and phonology of this language is very precise. It has made me very self-aware about the way I speak and articulate.

Many of us are (perhaps vaguely) familiar with the concept of Advaita (non-dualism). Reality appears to consist of a multiplicity, but in reality is not-two, but one. How on earth? Well, the ground of everything is simply consciousness, and all impermanent things are a temporary expression of that.

These names are symbols of the divine truth of yourself. Through these ways the knowledge has been passed on that benefits us all, to discover our freedom.
Every Vedanta teacher teaches the same self-knowledge, if all goes well, with the same complete methodology. One truth, one self, one teaching.
