It is more of Advaithic Philosophy. Am I right?
Knowingly or unknowingly all are advaiti, whether a religious or spiritual or atheist. We are all praying to ourselves (Aham) only. An atheist is wishing to himself and also executing that. A religious person thinks of some super power outside but still praying and talkign to the self (Aham) only. but religious and spiritual mean different.
according to me or in my opinion, a religious person is one who does his duties with an understanding or not understanding whereas a spiritual person is one who tries to yearn for the truth.
how can a religious person say Aham Brahmasmi without any spiritual inclination/understanding or for that matter pray to himself without knowing the Truth.
Spirituality lies in knowing the truth. Once a person realises the truth, then it is worth saying Aham Brahmasmi.
Brahma means Truth and Aham Brahmasmi means I am Truth.
So if you see it is equating God to Truth (yes God is Truth infact), but how did the movie do the justification of explaining this.
I might be wrong in my views or thinking or understanding. please clear my doubts.
