How Does This Relate to You?

You might wonder: “Why should I care about Parabrahman or Maya?”

Here's why it deeply matters:

• 🕉️ You are not just the body or mind. The real "you" is the Atman—eternal and divine.
• 🌈 Maya keeps you trapped in cycles of desire, fear, ego, and rebirth—forgetting your true nature.
• 🔓 Spiritual awakening is realizing you were never separate to begin with.
• ✨ Your life’s deeper purpose is not just to survive or succeed, but to reconnect with the Source.

Why Does This Matter?

Understanding Parabrahman helps you realize that you are more than just a physical being. It removes fear of death because your soul is eternal—it only transitions. It gives purpose to life—your journey is about realizing your divine nature and breaking free from illusion (Maya).
