Summary "The Yoga-Vasishtha Maharamayana of Valmiki, Vol. 3 (of 4), Part 2 (of 2)" by Valmiki is a philosophical text written in an ancient period, likely around the early centuries AD. This work is a spiritual discourse that integrates elements of Hindu philosophy and teachings, focusing on concepts such as Nirvana, duality, the nature of the soul, and the essence of Brahman. The text features characters like Ráma and the sage Vasishtha, who engage in dialogues exploring profound philosophical questions and personal growth. The opening portion of the text introduces a serene atmosphere where the sage Vasishtha begins to address an assembly of princes and saintly figures at dusk. As he speaks, the audience becomes entranced, captivated by his teachings on composure and the significance of attaining ultimate liberation. The narrative contrasts the tranquility of the evening with the internal turmoil of desires and ignorance, while Vasishtha emphasizes the importance of understanding the nature of Brahma and the soul to achieve true peace. The section ends with a sense of anticipation for further enlightenment as the assembly prepares for evening rituals, setting the stage for deeper spiritual teachings to follow.
