At this point we’ve established that Vedanta is a means of self-knowledge i.e. permanent freedom. But where did it come from? Who–if anyone–invented it?

Vedanta says that freedom is your nature. If what you want is freedom, but you already are free, is there an action you can do to get yourself? Or is another means required?

This is the second video in the Vedanta Course video series. It discusses the fundamentals of Vedanta such as, “What is an object? What do you want when you pursue objects? Do objects actually give you what you want?”
If you have questions about this video, leave a comment or go to the Contact page and send me an e-mail. I’ll try to answer your question in an upcoming Q&A video segment.

Here is the first video in what will be an ongoing series that will first give an overview of Vedanta and then explain it systematically by unfolding its source texts.
If you are interested in learning more about Vedanta, then continue to check back in the blog section and in the articles section. I will begin to add more information about Vedanta in the coming weeks. I will also be posting some of my correspondences with other inquirers because people often share the same questions. Over time I hope to unfold the whole Vedanta teaching on this site. Also, feel free to write to me if you have questions. You can find my email address in the contact section.
If you have an inclination for Hinduism or Sanskrit, I can also wholeheartedly endorse any book, video or lecture by Swami Dayananda, Swami Paramarthananda and Swami Chinmayananda. These are three of the very finest contemporary teachers of traditional Vedanta. Swami Paramarthananda’s talks are hard to come by unless you know someone who lives in Chennai, although some of them are available from Swami Dayananda’s Arsha Vidya US website.
