Referring to the eightfold apara prakriti, the five elements along with mind, intellect, and ego, he says these are all objects that can be observed. Para prakriti is the seeing consciousness that illumines and watches these elements, yet it is still not the ultimate witness. He clarifies that the true witness (Atman/Brahman) neither sees nor participates, as even seeing implies intention and involvement. Spiritual growth happens when observation becomes free of purpose and engagement, allowing the seer to detach from the seen and ultimately dissolve into Krishna, the supreme reality. π§ Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b&nd=1&dlsi=2d753e5523df4ceb Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~~~~~
