Understanding the Mind - The Vedanta Way

May 2, 2026 · 28 min

The mind indeed is mysterious. Nobody has seen it, but we know it exists. We have thoughts, perceptions, and emotions, and we know all this happens in the mind. So, it does exist, but where does it exist, how does it function, and how and why was it created? 

This episode is based on the understanding and analysis of the Mind as taught by Vedanta. We will cover the following aspects of the Mind:

1.      Source of the Mind

2.      Evolution of the Mind

3.      Structure of the Mind

4.      Functioning of the Mind

5.      States of the Mind

6.      Qualities or Gunas of the Mind

We look forward to hear back from you!
