King George's Park — Attraction in London

Vedanta means the essence of the Vedas (veda+anta).Vedanta stands for spiritual wisdom that transcends borders defined by religion, culture, race and nationality. It is possible to perceive Vedanta as a spiritual tradition that simultaneously respects and transcends all religions.Only the Truth is and you are That!

You Are the unchanging Awareness

in which all activities takes place.

To deny this is to suffer, to know this is Freedom.

It is not difficult to realize this because it is your True Nature.

Simply Inquire 'Who am I?' and Watch Carefully.

Do not make effort and do not stir a thought.

Look within, approach with all-devotion and stay as Heart.

Keep vigilant and you will see that nothing will arise.

This is the trick of how to keep the mind quiet

You simply have to watch: where does mind arise from?

Where does thought come from?

What is the source of this thought?

Then you will see that you have always been Free

and that everything has been a dream."
