"Is Meaning Finite? The Currency Of The Bhagavad-Gītā" By Āchārya Dr. Sthaneshwar Timalsina

In this video Āchārya Dr. Sthaneshwar Timalsina talks about unfolding of meaning and truth. This is a snippet taken from the course - "The Bhagavad-Gītā: Ancient Commentaries, Modern Insights", where Āchārya Ji examines the text in its depth and originality while balancing three different streams of Hindu Philosophy, the non-dualism of Śaṅkarācārya that emphasizes knowledge, the qualified non-dualism of Rāmānujācārya grounded in Vaiṣṇava theology, and the monism of Abhinavagupta with his foundational philosophy of realization combined with action. He additionally examines the relevance of these teachings to contemporary issues including the meaning of moral agency, the problem of violence, and the scope of the diverse forms of yoga such as devotion, wisdom, and action.
