Man lives in the duality of what is real and what is merely appearance: what is and what seems to be; what is eternal and unchanging and what is temporary and changing.
The enlightened beings understand and perceive the eternal unchanging 'what is' as the real, whereas man knows only the temporary changing 'what seems to be' and believes it to be real. There is no proof for reality, and cannot be either, for it is beyond mind, though man constantly strives for it; there is no lack of proof for what is illusory, for it is within the mind, and which man therefore takes to be real. Thus man lives uncertainly in the realms of temporary and change, never quite understanding his or her own essence.

'Advaita' means 'not two' – 'not divided': such is every man and woman's life.

Advaita Publications offers, through its website, a growing range of books, articles, CDs, DVDs, illustrations and invitations to satsangs that have a single purpose – the sharing of the understanding of life of an enlightened being, who has understood the illusory nature of actions, speech, thoughts, time and the mind itself.
