You are not your body! | Swami Chinmayananda | #ChinmayaMission**
In this powerful short discourse, *Swami Chinmayananda* urges us to reflect on one of the most fundamental truths of Vedanta: *we are not the body**. Yet, most of our lives are spent identifying with the body-decorating it, pleasing it, and feeding its endless desires. Swamiji reminds us that the body is a *tool*, not the *truth of who we are.
💬 "The body is meant for a higher purpose-serving others with compassion, love, and kindness. But instead, we waste our life pampering it, thinking we are it." - Swami Chinmayananda
Through simple yet piercing words, he sheds light on how self-centered living leads us away from our spiritual evolution. The body, Swamiji explains, should be used in service, in selflessness, and in the pursuit of the **Supreme (Parama)**. Misidentifying with the body leads us to suffer-not because of the world, but because of our own ignorance.
This short video serves as a wake-up call to shift our focus inward and upward.
