Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. Swami Vivekananda’s example of a worm crawling out of the way of the train is used to illustrate the way human beings have the choice of freedom from slavery to nature. The philosophy of spiritual evolution in Sankhya philosophy as an ascending set of identities is reviewed. Tarakam is the saving inner wisdom. Akramam means it comes all at once, not gradually as in the four stages of traditional learning. In the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, it says that if you switch on the light, the darkness goes away immediately, not stage by stage. All dark corners of the heart get illumined at once. The lecture then starts with Samadipada with the first verse. Atha is the feeling that life is not adding up. Verses: III.55, III.56, I.1
