“What does Vedanta really do to solve this problem of life? It just shifts the focus of your attention. To put it in a very simple form, it shifts your focus from your own mental life to yourself. If you focus your attention on you, the thinker, you become introverted. Vedanta goes one step further. It is not merely psychological. It says that you are more than a thought. The thinking is you, but you are independent of thought.“
Swami Dayananda Saraswati
