Why does the mind so often mistake its own distortions for truth? Cognitive Bias and the Spiritual Mind bridges contemporary cognitive science and the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gītā to answer that question. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and Vedantic philosophy, Kavita Arjun Jadhav shows how the biases that shape perception - before judgment even begins - are the same conditioning the Gītā calls the seeker to see through.Across forty-four chapters, the book moves from the architecture of cognitive bias to a structured path of discernment (viveka), examining the intellect (buddhi), mind (manas), and ego (ahaṅkāra) as both psychological faculties and spiritual instruments. Each chapter pairs a scientific analysis with a Gītā-based framework and practical self-observation exercises, turning ancient insight into a working method for transforming reactivity into clarity.Rigorous yet accessible, this is a guide for seekers, scholars, and practitioners who want to understand the mind not only to think more clearly, but to live more freely.
