Presented as a dialogue between sage Vasistha and Prince Rama, this expansive work explores the pursuit of liberation through self-effort and meditation. Containing over 29,000 verses, it weaves cosmology and metaphysical teachings into stories and fables, expounding principles of non-duality, Maya, and Brahman while incorporating influences from Buddhism, Jainism, and Kashmiri Shaivism.
