Humanity is Under a Hypnotic Spell | Are You Ready to Wake Up?

The most profound knowledge in the world states that the universe itself is an illusion. But what does that mean for us mere mortals? Does it mean we are an illusion as well, living in an illusionary world? Is humanity under a hypnotic spell? The ancient text of the Ashtavakara Gita explores, like no other text, if the world is real or an illusion. The text conveys the beauty, depth, and simplicity of the teachings of Advaita Vedanta, the most influential of the Hindu dharmic systems. The Ashtavakra Gita is one of a few texts that is serious about going beyond everything, including the existence of the ego, to the other shore of the clear space of awareness where Atman is truly Brahman.
