• 6:25 --  How to know the Self when It cannot be objectified? Is inference sufficient?

• 44:50 -- If the realization of atman is an experiential reality, then why is there a logical conflict between different spiritual traditions? Does it mean that the realized master's have different experiences?
•  54:35 -- If consciousness illumines Maya, then why does it need the support of Maya to realize itself?
