If Not the Body and Mind, What Are You?

In this talk from the early 1970s, Swami Satchidananda teaches us how to recognize our essential nature-first through stepping back from identification with the body and mind. Then, recognizing that the movement of the gunas (the three qualities of nature: rajas, tamas, sattva) are what affect the body and mind and the ever-changing nature of the manifest world. By remaining as the “Witness” or “Knower” of the ever-changing, we will be able to realize True Nature as the never-changing Consciousness.
