Vivek Chudamani – Episode 3 takes us deeper into the spiritual wisdom of Adi Shankaracharya. In this episode, Acharya explains the three gunas – Tamoguna (ignorance and inertia), Rajoguna (desire and activity), and Satoguna (purity and balance) – and how these qualities shape the mind and actions of every jeeva (individual soul).
Shankaracharya also unfolds the profound truth of the five koshas (sheaths) – Annamaya (physical body), Pranamaya (vital energy), Manomaya (mind), Vigyanmaya (intellect), and Anandmaya (bliss). Though they protect and sustain the atma, they also act as veils that cover our true nature and keep us bound in the cycle of ignorance.
Presented in easy-to-understand Hindi, this episode is not just philosophy but a practical guide for seekers who want to recognize how the gunas and koshas influence daily life, and how awareness can slowly lead us toward liberation.
