About Course

Advaita Impersonalism can be summarized into four claims: (a) Brahman is real or true, (b) the material world is false, (c) the soul or living entity is Brahman, and (d) there is nothing beyond Brahman. We have to remember that the first three of these claims are partially accepted by Personalists, while the fourth one is completely rejected. However, even for someone to reject the fourth claim, the first three have to be understood in greater detail. In this course, we will analyze each of these four claims in great detail and discuss their nuances.
