- 'Drg-Drsya-Viveka' is an introductory book on Advaita Vedanta, technically called a 'Prakarana Grantha (प्रकरण ग्रंथ),
which teaches the identity and oneness of the individual Jiva and Paramatman.

- Vedanta is not a new knowledge; it reminds us of our true reality; it is the re-discovery of our own true nature.

- Atman (knowledge of Atman) is not something that could be produced or transformed or attained or purified.
- (" न उत्पाद्यं, न विकार्यम्, न आप्यं, न संस्कार्यं " - Shankaracharya’s commentary on the Ishavasya Upanishad).

Some important topics discussed are:
-Spiritual sleep and awakening
-The laws of karma and re-incarnation
-The wheel of karma - vrtti - samskara - vasana - samkalpa and again karma...
-The importance of Sadhana Chatushtaya (साधनचतुष्टय)
-Different forms of 'samadhi'.
