2 ways to get vairāgya: 1. seeing the defects of happiness from objects (it has a beginning and an end) 2. understanding that objects are not real. Bhagavad Gītā ch. 13, 7-11. Spiritual sadhana: developing qualities. Humility is knowledge because it leads to knowledge. Cultivate the qualities through effort. Only if a person has these qualities direct knowledge can arise. Bhagavad Gītā ch. 13, 12. If you negate everything existing and non existing the self remains. There is no other way to teach the self except by negation: neti neti. Is vers 13, 12 a contradiction? That which is devoid of all duality is described by adhyaropa and apavāda," i.e., by superimposition and negation, by attribution and denial. Intuition of the self. After negation of objects, even the mind, the self stands self revealed. More Vedanta Seminars. More on Vedanta wiki.yoga-vidya.de/Vedanta. English Community, Blog, Seminars: my.yoga-vidya.org
