Acharya Prashant explains the profound spiritual state of an 'Avdhoot' based on the verses of Kabir Saheb. He describes the phrase 'Yugan Yugan Hum Yogi' as the union of the center (Yoga) and the infinite expansion of time. An Avdhoot is one who remains connected to the timeless center while existing within the flow of time. This state is characterized by the realization that one is not a limited body or a specific object but existence itself. Since the self is not a separate entity, there is no birth, death, coming, or going; there is only continuous presence. When personal identity dissolves, one merges with everything, becoming impossible to distinguish from the whole. The speaker emphasizes that an Avdhoot simultaneously experiences Yoga (union/non-duality) and Bhoga (experience/duality). This means living in two dimensions at once: one of silence and emptiness, and another of sound and vast expansion. True spiritual liberation is not found in wandering through forests or graveyards but in knowing silence and speech, the one and the many, and the timeless and time together. The Avdhoot sees the same 'Atma-Tattva' (soul element) everywhere, recognizing that diversity is merely an expression of the one truth. This is summarized in the phrase 'Hum Hain Bahuri Akela'тАФbeing many yet remaining alone and singular. Acharya Prashant further clarifies that the Avdhoot is the master of both the material world (Siddhi) and the ultimate spiritual resolution (Samadhi). Their speech originates from deep silence, and their form is essentially formless (Aroop). Life for such a being is not a task driven by desire or competition but a 'Sahaj' (natural) play. Unlike worldly games that aim for victory or completion, the AvdhootтАЩs play is an effortless, continuous celebration of existence with oneself. Since there is nothing other than the self to attain, the only purpose of life is to play within this divine expansion.
