Vedanta for Critical Times | Swami Sarvapriyananda, Dr. Elon Goldstein, and Prof. Peter Bolland
Applying Eastern Spirituality to Political Conflict.
Today's polarizing political climate leads to strong, often negative, emotions. As Spiritual practitioners, what role should we play in political discussions and actions? How can we maintain clarity of mind while engaging in contentious topics? Our panelists will discuss the importance and ideal methods of engaging with suffering in the world from a variety of eastern spiritual perspectives, including Advaita Vedanta and Mahayana Buddhism. Recorded on 5 Oct 2024
The panelists:
- Swami Sarvapriyananda (pre-monastic name Biswarup Mitra) is a Hindu monk (sannyasi) belonging to the Ramakrishna Order. He is the current resident Swami and head of the Vedanta Society of New York, a position he has been serving since January 2017.
- Professor Peter Bolland is the Philosophy and Humanities Department Chair and a professor of philosophy and humanities at Southwestern College in Chula Vista (peterbolland.com/).
- Dr. Elon Goldstein is a Lecturer in Religious Studies specializing in Buddhism and Hinduism at Brandeis University.

    Thank you Swami Harinamananda Ji for organizing this talk in such an effective manner. My twin brother and I had the honor of hosting Swami Sarvapriyananda on our podcast several times. In the midst of problems and the crisis going on in the world, this talk was much needed and I’m glad that people will be able to avail this knowledge 🙏🏼

    Thank you for this talk. I wish this conversation had gone beyond the surface level. I understand the Vedanta order's commitment to being non-political, but I was hoping for actionable steps on how to remain calm and centered during the political unrest in the coming weeks. Swami Vivekananda, like many enlightened leaders, strongly advocated for justice, a principle I’ve also seen expressed deeply in Sufism and Islam. If they could take clear stands on how we should treat one another in a political context, why are we hesitant to model that in our own lives? Enlightened figures worked tirelessly to uplift and serve people in their times of need. It feels important that we continue that legacy with clarity and compassion, especially in such charged times.

      The only "action" one needs to "take" is to cognize AS A FACT that, "I AM" is the unaffected spectator of "political rest or unrest". "Knowledge" alone helps you to shed the ignorance that lands you under the "delusion" of "events" of "rest" and "unrest" being stirred up by "individuals" and "events". In TRUTH, these "events" and "emotions" are rising and subsiding in that "LONE PRINCIPLE OF I" at the sole discretion of "I".

      @@ravindramurthy3486 As much as I agree, lots of people rely on certain government policies to stay out of poverty / get a chance to be out of poverty. It is tough for us who are in poverty to focus on prayer, meditation, and thinking of "I am" when we cannot feed ourselves properly. It requires immense spiritual strength to do so and I do not expect the average person who is going through the struggle to know what TO do. Life is very unstable for many people who are seeking support and guidance, not just someone telling them "You are fine because you are God"

    • @ravindramurthy3486
      @ravindramurthy3486 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@rasha9546 1. Yes, I agree that "one" cannot take shelter under/nor rise to "spirituality" when basic survival is threatened. 2. However, at least being aware of the "FINAL TRUTH" is of paramount importance so that "one day", as soon as "conditions permit", at the earliest opportunity "one" makes an attempt at cognition of "TRUTH". 3. If Divinity blesses "you" with that COGNITION, "you" will find that "you" and the "elements" that threatened your survival, were also "events" in accordance with "DIVINE PROGRAMMING" and that "you" were never an "individual" but that DIVINITY ITSELF. 3. This is my perspective as an individual. Leaving aside Vedanta, purely from the perspective of an individual transacting in a world, it would be foolish to rely on a government. We are too naive to think that the politicians care about we the commoners; they are in it for themselves in their ivory towers. The more we rely on ourselves and "our own networks", better off we are.
