In Vedic tradition, all the human possibilities are used to intra analyze and internalize the spiritual truths. One of the biggest possibility of human beings is a deep in-depth analysis. When you do an in depth analysis, beyond your logic, your being opens up. That is why Vada Prativata, debates, are a powerful method to inrtranalyze and internalise the Vedic truths. When I was teaching Brahma Sutra, I encouraged devotees to have Vada Prativada. Now again, today, I am initiating all of you! Start the groups everywhere. The YouTube, facebook, twitter with the title “Upanishad Debates.” With the hashtag #UpanishadDebates start the Vada Prativada. I tell you, by doing Vada Prativada with Buddhists, Shankara established his ultimate advaithic experience into Buddhists, but, listen, from Buddhism, more than 90% is digested and assimilated, so end of the day, Buddhists and Shankara both were enriched. Same way, Buddhists, Nagarjuna, he, by doing the debate, (buffering) the disciples and followers of Shankara, he established his ultimate experience, no doubt, but he picked up so many convincing points from the Vedic tradition, I tell you, in debate, ultimately nobody wins, nobody loses, both gets enriched. Let’s start the Vada Prativada, intra analyzing, internalizing process of Vedic tradition. Fullness, Completion, comes from Completion, continues to remain as Completion, from which it came and which came out, both continues to remain as Completion. And, when it goes back, Completion remains as Completion. If this is the case, can Completion come out of Completion? If it is not, then why we perceive incompletion? This is the question I’m giving debate. When you debate, you will intra analyze, you will internalize, you will understand, you will look in, you will see the possibilities. Debating with the right person is a joy! That is why Vyasa comes down to taste debate with Shankara. He comes down to taste debating with Shankara! And it goes on and on and on, till one disciple understands who is debating with whom, and falls at the feet of both and chants Shankaram shankaracharyam keshavam vaadaraayanam. Shankara is sitting as Shankaracharya, Vishnu is sitting as Vyasa. Who can win, who can lose? Then both of them reveal their identity to each other and end the debate. So we also will have two teams: Shankara team, and Vyasa team. Start debating! Understand, again and again and again, the truth need to be relived, remembered, rejoiced, radiated; relived, remembered, rejoiced, radiated. Remember, relive, rejoice, radiate. Shankaram shankaracharyam keshavam vaadaraayanam Bhagavan One does the sutra, one does the vashya. Bhagwan Paramahamsa Nithyananda, from Upanishads Series Satsang, 25th January 2015
