Advaita

Advaita is a Sanskrit term that is used in Hindu philosophy to denote the concept of non-duality or unity. It is mainly associated with the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, founded by Adi Shankara in the 8th century. Advaita emphasizes the belief that there is ultimately no distinction between the individual self (Atman) and the universal consciousness (Brahman).
