Syncretic Terms

Correct Knowledge, Right Discrimination, Vichara

Notes

"The cessation of that wrong identification is achieved by right understanding, and by no other means. Right understanding is held by scripture to be the recognition of the oneness of God and oneself. 202 This recognition is achieved by right discrimination between what is truly oneself and what is not, so one must develop this discrimination between the conventional self and ones true self. 203"[1]
