Awareness and Self-awareness

This video discusses, the subject of awareness and self-awareness. Awareness is the natural characteristic of the soul. Just as wetness is an inseparable trait of water, so awareness springs and comes with the spirit soul, the self. There is a distinction, however, between spiritual and material self-awareness. While we are in this world, we are conditioned by the laws of material nature and therefore act and feel according to the given conditions we are in. The Vedas teach us, however, that the goal is to uncover our true self, our spiritual nature and the real life that springs from that knowledge.
