Brahman

Brahman is a fundamental concept in Hindu philosophy, representing the ultimate, unchanging reality and cosmic spirit that underlies all existence. It is often described as eternal, infinite, and beyond human comprehension. Unlike the personal gods in Hinduism, Brahman is not seen as a deity but as the source of everything—nature, life, and consciousness. In practices like meditation, realizing one's unity with Brahman is considered essential for spiritual enlightenment, emphasizing that individual souls (Atman) are interconnected with this universal essence. Essentially, Brahman embodies the idea of a singular, unified existence that transcends individual identities.
