Description

Acharya Prashant addresses a question regarding how to maintain the conviction of being the 'Brahman Self' while engaged in demanding intellectual work as an IT professional. He clarifies that the statement 'I am Brahman' is fundamentally different from worldly identities like being a professional or a citizen. While worldly identities are objective and tangible, Brahman is beyond sensory perception, thought, and form. Therefore, identifying as Brahman is not about adopting a new label but is a process of negation, realizing that one is not any of the thoughts, labels, or physical attributes one typically identifies with.
