Drawing from Vedantic wisdom, he explains how platforms manipulate human insecurity, desire, and loneliness for profit. 🧠 What happens when the algorithm knows you better than you know yourself? 🔥 Can true freedom survive in a world of endless scrolling? 💡 How do you beat the algorithm—not just digitally, but spiritually? Video Information: 22.02.25, University of California, Berkeley, Greater Noida Context: 00:00 – Intro 02:04 – The algorithm knows your mind better than you do 07:04 – More knowledge, more ego, less freedom 12:27 – Are you being informed or just entertained? 16:49 – The real problem is your inner greed, not the tech 23:05 – Real revolution isn’t social media activism 28:38 – How to break free from algorithmic slavery 33:44 – What the algorithm can’t touch: love, stillness, clarity The algorithm doesn't follow you. It controls you. Social media is not entertainment—it's enslavement. Your feed is a mirror of your inner greed. You’re not using the algorithm—the algorithm is using you. Knowledge without awareness becomes a prison. The truth doesn’t trend. Lies do. If you're not conscious, you're just data. Break the pattern. Beat the algo. Free your mind.
