Advait in Daily life

What is meant by Advait or Non-duality?  

Literally Advait means Not Two.   It is not mere a  philosophy but a beautiful and intelligent way of living.

Everything in this Universe is dual in nature.  It means, there is always two, like two sides of a coin. They are inseparable. 

If you observe  the Nature, there is always two. Day and night, cold and hot, life and death, tall and short, happy and sad, success and failure.  They can never be one without the other. A cloth is made because of threads passing in opposite directions. Similarly, this Universe, Life is functioning because of opposite values.  

Even if we observe our daily life, we are continuously facing duality, both outside in the world as well as inside our mind.  They are not only two, but they cannot remain same all the time.  One will change into another. 

Laughter changes into tears, love changes into hatred, friendship turns into enmity.  Even our thoughts and feeling are also divided.  One thought will pull us in one direction, while the other will pull in another direction.  This is what confusion is.  In fact, we are torn between various forces inside our mind in many directions.  This is chaos.  

Living in duality is to live in conflict and confusion.  Duality is split, many.  

Advait means to be One.  It is Integrity, Clarity.  

So far, we have lived our life in duality.  We have suffered enough.  There is an alternative way available to live our life better, with joy and peace.  That is, Advait. 

We need to bring Advait in our daily life, not mere a concept to read and discuss. This group is an effort to live in this new understanding.
