How can we still have attachment when we know we are the nondual pure consciousness of existence? Essentially this paradox becomes a problem for a spiritual aspirant in a world full of distractions that is oriented towards sensory overload. The ancient text of the Ashtavakara Gita is explores the nature of the paradox between being attached and fundamentally realizing that you are nondual pure consciousness itself. 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.
