Sutra w/ Ace On Earth

shoutout @brokawmusic for the proper master! first single to the upcoming ep, Maya

Avadhūta (IAST avadhūta, written as अवधूत) is a Sanskrit term from the root 'to shake' (see V. S. Apte and Monier-Williams) that, among its many uses, in some Indian religions indicates a type of mystic or saint who is beyond egoic-consciousness, duality and common worldly concerns and acts without consideration for standard social etiquette. Avadhūta is a Jivanmukta who gives his insight to others and teaches them about his realisation of the true nature of the ultimate reality (Brahman) and self (Ātman) and takes the role of a guru to show the path of moksha to others.[1] Some Avadhūta also achieve the title of Paramahamsa.

Rootz III (Unreleased OGs, WIPs, & Collabs 2023)

In Hinduism, the Atman, or soul, is one’s eternal Self. It resides in all living creatures, not just in this lifetime but all incarnations a soul will have. The Atman itself, gives the materialistic body life and is also all-knowing; since it comes from the supreme God, Brahman.


Created w/ @strained_rootz
