About this listen

Maya - This concept suggests that our consciousness is trapped within a limited understanding of reality, similar to a fish confined within a net, unaware of the vastness beyond. The text uses various metaphors, such as a dream, a play, and a reflection, to explain that Maya obscures our true nature and prevents us from seeing the divine reality. Ultimately, the text argues that breaking free from Maya requires recognizing its illusory nature and practicing spiritual disciplines such as meditation, yoga, and devotion. This liberation allows individuals to transcend the material world and experience true happiness and fulfillment.
