## Resource

Hi everyone, Today we spend some time discussing the concepts of Puruṣa, Prakṛti, and Avidyā. These are three foundational teachings that help us better understand our true nature, the material world, and the causes of human suffering - according to Sanātana Dharma. As we deepen our awareness of these principles, we can cultivate a more conscious relationship with our thoughts, emotions, and experiences. For the philosophers: The concept of Avidyā is clearly described in the Yoga Sutras. Puruṣa and Prakṛti are articulated in Sāṃkhya philosophy (though have roots well beyond such as in the Rig Veda and Upanishads). To my knowledge. We also review some key upcoming transits: Final Vortex before Eclipse Season Mercury Direct: July 23rd Outer planet line up: Now through July 29th Guru Purnima: July 29th Christine Characteristics of Your Spouse: https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0 Soulmate Astrology https://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUw Christine: website: innerknowing.yoga instagram: astrologynow_podcast patreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast
