"The ultimate spiritual insight expressed in the Vedas (Hindu Scriptures) is called Advaita Vedanta, the vision of Truth in which it is realized that all beings are one with the supreme Reality. When the limited sense of “I” and “mine” are dissolved one becomes free from fear, sorrow and all limitations Such a liberated person is capable of great love and truly inspired action in this world" - Swami Chinmayananda
