Aparokshanubhuti
Aparokṣānubhūti is a compound consisting of aparokṣa ("perceptible") and anubhūti (अनुभूति)("knowledge"), meaning "direct cognition" or "direct experience of the Absolute." Aparokshanubhuti reveals profound insights into the nature of reality, highlighting the illusory nature of the world and the individual self's true identity as part of the Universal Self. The Aparokshanubhuti is a work attributed to Adi Shankara It is a popular introductory work that expounds Advaita Vedanta philosophy. In Advaita Vedanta, it refers to the realization of the identity of the individual self (Atman) with the ultimate reality (Brahman). This realization is not an intellectual understanding but a direct, experiential awareness. This experience is not based on inference or reasoning but on a direct, intuitive understanding that goes beyond the limitations of ordinary perception.
