Only God, Many Avenues? A talk on Spirituality, Enlightenment, and Radical Acceptance

In this deep, unscripted spiritual dialogue, Vinay Mehta joins James Sampson and Justin Sampson (‪@stayspiritual‬) for an open exploration of Hindu philosophy, Advaita Vedānta, Neo-Advaita, enlightenment, suffering, radical acceptance, karma, the role of the guru, and the nature of reality itself. Drawing from a traditional Hindu lineage, Vinay shares perspectives on: Why some modern spiritual approaches lack a clear methodology The distinctions between Advaita, Vishishtadvaita, and Dvaita Why scripture, reasoning, and lived experience must align The role of the guru and why “instant enlightenment” is often misunderstood How suffering, rejection, and desire can become gateways to wisdom The conversation naturally moves through: Neo-Advaita vs classical Vedānta Radical acceptance and psychological freedom God as intelligence, awareness, and reality itself Capitalism, desire, and the “hungry ghost” dynamic Why enlightenment may simply be the end of resistance to what is This episode is not about conversion or persuasion. It is an invitation to clarity, discernment, and honest inquiry across traditions. 📌 Watch if you’re interested in: Hinduism, Advaita Vedanta, enlightenment, spirituality, non-duality, meditation, gurus, consciousness, God, radical acceptance, philosophy, suffering, and awakening.
