Importance of Advaita philosophy from Shankaracharya to Paramhans Advaita Maharaj

Prime Minister Shri Modi said that India has been the land of sages. When society passes through a difficult phase, a sage definitely appears. Adi Shankaracharya introduced us all to Advaita. In that period, such sages and munis came who worked to awaken the society by keeping the idea of ​​Advaita. In this tradition, Paramhans Advaita Ji Maharaj also simplified this idea and knowledge and took the responsibility of spreading it among the common people. Today, amidst material progress, many worries including war and conflict exist in the countries of the world, which distance humans from each other. Their solution will be found in the idea of ​​Advaita. Advaita means where there is no duality. The idea of ​​seeing only one God in every living being while abandoning the mentality of mine and other is included in this philosophy. Seeing the entire creation as God is Advaita. Paramhans Dayal Ji Maharaj used to say that whatever you are, I am that… This idea ends the difference between me and you. If someone accepts this idea then all the fights will end.
