ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
ABOUT US
Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.
If I had a trillion dollars and could do anything anywhere on earth, I would attend this lecture. When saturday night comes around and I consider all the things I could do, the only thing that sounds exciting is studying with the swamis and practicing the meditations.
Agree 👍
Blessed You Are.

Fortunately you don’t need trillion dollars and you can still do it with any dollar

This practice has transformed my life. I was a hardcore drug user for 20 years, after a spiritual experience I stopped using but still felt awful for months. I stumbled upon Tantra which led me to this. When I awakened Kundalini, I felt this surge of energy and bliss that I didn’t think would last, yet every time I practice this practice, I feel this electric bliss creep up my spine and I actually see the Shakti when I meditate. It’s as if light and sound becomes one and my body is inseparable from the space around me. This is powerful stuff, no drug comes close.
you mean the practice of Ham Sa meditation?
How you awakened kundalini??kundalini awakening means enlightenment..
@@luckylemur6449 no, I’m talking about Tantra in general. It’s amazing how far my meditation has come since I’ve posted this. I owe my life to tantra, how obscured by ignorance my view was!!!
@@queroxuwu no, kundalini awakening is not enlightenment. In fact this Tantra says so… “The various means of raising the Kundalini are just tools to lead the seeker towards the realization of their own essence. The ultimate state is beyond all methods and is spontaneously experienced as one's own divine nature."
@@MichaelStefano-k3b Were you initiated into a tantric tradition and taught meditation thereby? Have you seen the discussion titled Kashmir Shaivism and the Vijnana Vedanta of Sri Ramakrishna | Swami Medhananda Puri, Dec 6, 2022 on TH-cam?
I really like Swamiji’s enthusiasm. He’s very uplifting and of course knowledgeable.

How do you “practice” Kashmiri Shaivism?

Please tell me where I find lectures on this.
"Om" lead us from unreal to real, lead us from darkness unto light, from death to immortality. Om peace peace peace 🙏
This was totally fantastic.swami ji have u
interacted with shaiva scholar swami Lakshaman joo of kashmir.ur narrations were very Lucid & pleasing to mind.Request for ur mail Id/mobile
With profound reverence

Om Prem...
Thank you Swamiji...your scholarism is impressive! Advaita Vedanta and Kashmir Shaivism are similar...I like the simplicity of Advaita but also the radicalism of Shiva, and since I have no physical guru, I have always considered Shiva to be my guru, because Shiva said he would accept anyone who asked him, and so I asked him. Plus, I love the sunflowers behind you!
You seem to be more predisposed towards a devotional path.
Hes my best friend almost older brother like isht deva and I consider him my teacher aswell he is the ultimate yogi the entire creation came from him and all returns to him. ❤️
Krishna is my guru
What a teacher Swamiji is! It takes a lot of internal clarity to understand something and present it so lucidly. I had "studied" Kashmir Shaivism and came out with the conclusion that this really is "Advaita with different names for reality"
It takes someone like Swamiji who can help you understand and appreciate the subtle differences. Makes spiritual paths so much richer and joyful. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

श्रीरामकृष्णार्पणमस्तु 🙏🏻
Namaskar Swami Sarvapriyanandaji Maharaj 🙏🏻
Thank you Vedanta society New York for sharing this 🌹
Beautiful speaker. Great English, for starters. Clear. But such a lovely spirit too: upbeat. And fun! Humorous. The perfect speaker for this philosophy.
This method of meditation is called kali sadhna as taught by sage vashishta 🙏🌺🌺🌺🌺🙏
Thank you for this! Har har Mahadev, brother!
🧡🕉🧡
Hariohm swamiji.🙏.I feel very blessed to go through.
Har har mahadev 🙏😊 bro
Hari Om Swamiji! Feel blessed listening to you!🙏🏼
As in other talks, Swami Sarvapriyanandji once again explained a difficult thing in simple words. Kotishaha Dhanyawad
I have been a student of Christopher Hareesh Wallis for over a year and Kashmir Shaivism, Trika Shaivism, or Nondual Shaiva Tantra is my practice. OM!
Well you must, therefore, be finding Swami's talks very highly interesting and edifying.
@@garypuckettmuse I do indeed! This is a wonderful explanation of how tantra fits into Ramakrishna's philosophy. Swami Sarvapriyananda has a solid understanding of Tantr. I am impressed.
Hareesh is initiated into same yoga I practice, Siddha Yoga! SMKJ!
Is tantric sex a real thing or just a myth ?
@@piyushraj2327 Tantric sex is a made up thing. It dates back to as early as 1904 and was popularized by a German.
Wonderful talk, pranams to Swamiji🙏🙏🙏
I will note that the powers emerging from Shiva in this order are:Svatantrya(complete freedom), Ananda Shakti, Icca Shakti(will), Jnana Shakti(knowledge), Kriya Shakti(action in the manifest world)
And they are the same, the energy is the same unit, it just transformed from freedom to a ripple in the Bliss that became will then knowledge then action. Abhinavagupta teaches that action is verily knowledge.
wow hamsa.. soham and OM finally.. very nice lecture.. 112 meditations must be displayed by a teacher on youtube
"The jar (is one with myself at the time of my desire to know and therefore)knows as one with myself. I am one with the jar in knowing. ...It is Siva alone who abides knowing Himself through all the existents." Abhinava on verse 105 of Vijnanabhairava.
Oh, Swamiji, like a few others commenting here, for years, I have longed to hear you talk about Shaivan nondualism. This is a great gift. Thank you.
Thank you for the correct spelling.
Man swamiji is amazing
*Abhinavagupta’s description of Kashmir:*
Where people normally are poetic and wise,
Where even warriors are articulate,
Women of cities are lustrous as the moon
And charming in their gait,
Where accomplished female practitioners of yoga are
Bright as the spark of fire
Particularly due to the complete opening
of the path of the shushumna nerve in them
they are also lustrous as the sky
in the state of the lunar eclipse
Where the wine known as madrika
Brings maturity in the talk of love of lovers
In which part of the world people get engaged
Confidently and unobstructed in the fare of love
Where the Gods take interest
in remaining engaged in the delight of the chakras
and where departs the joy of life
and blessedness of liberation
where contemplative practiotioners of yoga,
munis dwell at various spots
And where does Shiva dwell himself all the time.
I therefore consider Kashmir
As the proper place of yogic accomplishments Siddhi
there is no place on the whole of this earth
Which may compare with Kashmir in this respect
Nor in the respect of contentment
or fulfilment of all aspirations.
Kashmir should regain its old glory
I was enlightened by this transmission. Shiva came to me. Thank yo guruji.
For how long?
Great topic, very interesting lecture! Shaivism and Shiva are such a big part of Indian spirituality, I agree with other comments that it'd be great to do more lectures on this topic. It does bother me thou that life on Earth is depicted here so negatively and compared to a jail. It's a jail only if you make it so. Nature and even life itself are actually stunningly beautiful, part and parcel of Shiva. Thank you
Life on earth is jail if we will not focus on Shiva.
Yes it may sound negative but its really not. A jail is fit for he who committed the crime, life is so if you look at the world there is undeniable suffering and misery we are constantly seeking relief we just dont know where to look some do and we call them swamis, yogis etc. And they in turn tell us where to look those who wish to see shiva he is the sources and end of all its not that we aren't in a jail. Its that we've come to see jail as a sort of punishment rather than a chance at something. ❤️
Once one starts to practice meditation and start to feel lighter and lighter, the only thing they feel bounded by is the body. You don’t feel like coming out of the bliss yet you are forced to. I am saying this based on my personal little experience where these fears and anxieties which are nothing but body’s chemical reaction makes us feel miserable and pull us down. So yes it’s a jail
Thank you so much Swamiji for making this video public 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Such a beautiful talk! Thank you so much!

@@ubaidahmadnaik941 google these both ....and affirm both daily
@@moonn56789 thanku so much💕
Swamiji talks are amazing and illuminating. 🙏🏿
I'm curious to learn more about all this.
Please recommend a book.
The ones I found on the internet were in Sanskrit ( which I learnt only till class 8th ) and the ones in English don't seem credible.
Request you to provide some genuine sources or maybe more lectures of Swami sarwapriyananda ji on this topic.
I realised my True Self as Illumination in my heart when I took Lord Shiva as my Ishta Devata though he is only Saguna Brahman. But with His blessings I realised Supreme Consciousness as I Am.
Nirgun nirakar are two names of Lord Shiva mentioned in every Sahasranama about him that is written till now the context here is the dancer is the Nirgun nirakar and the dance is Shagun Sakar but a dancer cannot exist without a dance and dance doesn't exist without a dancer a dancer can choose either to dance or not that is the only question that undermines so Lord Shiva on what we call shift at 1 has nothing to do with their Shagun Shakur in its absolute or Nirgun nirakar in its absolute because as long as the cosmosis the Nirgun is playing with the Sagun self and at the end even that will stop
I've been following Igor Kufayev as well as the Lakshmanjoo Fellowship. Such profound insights.
Prostrations Revered Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏
🙏🏼
Thank you for telling people the truth without misdirection.. Unlike all those sadgurus, oshos poshos etc teachings you point out to are pure and pristine.
🙏🏼🍵
Osho has been a great teacher, only few understood him well. His teachings are very deep
Whenever we don't "understand" the perennial philosophy as explained by Osho or posho, the fault lies with US.
Spirituality is to be EXPERIENCED, SELF-REALISED and not understood.
Very true
He is right about osho & Sadhguru. They were not enlightened. Osho was well read, great speaker. Nothing else. Sadhguru copy osho but not controversial as him.
@@RahulYadav-xi1bt Afterall Osho, Swami Sarvapriyananda are Advaita Vedantic scholars. Osho definitely achieved deep sleep state while meditation or a bit more depth. Jiddu Krishnamurti was also an one of the greatest Advaita scholar and guru. Afterall any Advaita (Non-dual) guru is way too good. Also remember, Kashmiri Shaivism is also Advaita (Non-dual)
Ramakrishna Param"Hamsa"... A new perspective
It is also said that " Hansa", the bird has the quality of separating Milk from the water. That's what we do as well. Separate the Gyan from Agyan.
Eternal Gratitude and Appreciation. 🙏🌈💛🌈🙏
I enjoyed your presentation, and intend to watch you again.
Thank you Swamiji.
Swami Laksmanjoo
One of the Most Beautiful enumeration of our Philosophy and the Greatness of Kashmir as an Epicenter of Shaivaism. !!
Thank you Swamiji. Beautiful and fascinating as usual. You are truly the most wonderful teacher. I am a westerner, learning more and more through daily Vedanta videos.🙏🙏🙏
HH Swami Lakshmanjoo Maharaj was a great master of Kashmiri Shaivism.
Thank you for the fantastic teaching...I thought Samsara was a state of being without beginning or end, eternity...the end of stress...
My apologies for my ignorance...it is a beautiful feeling to be learning divine Innerstanding everyday ✨️ 🔥
Advaita Vedanta begins where Buddhism ends,
Kashmir Shaivism begins where Advaita Vedanta ends!
Excellent and wonderful 🙏🏻
VERY BEAUTIFULY, EXPLICITLY AND SIMPLY EXPLAINED. GREAT. INDICATES DEEP SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE. BESIDES TEXTUAL KNOWLEDGE.
And Please more of Bhairav Tantra! Namaste! Thank You! Tashi Delek! 😊😍🌈
Many many thanks .. was looking to read Kashmiri Shavisim .. glad to listen from Swami in very explanable form 🙏🙏🙇🏻♀️

Swamiji your knowledge is immense, thanks, i’m overwhelmed to take a drop from the ocean of your knowledge at a time, we are blessed and you’re the blessing
Namaste and pranam Swamiji. This is a rare opportunity to have a glimpse of the Kashmiri Shaivism. Isn't their shaaktha upaya, where a Guru can enlighten a person without going through the prakriya of S, M and Nidhidhyasanam is against the grain of vedanta 🤔! Since the problem is avidya, ignorance of the SELF; like light alone can remove darkness, isn't the solution ONLY - JNANAM🤔.
Gr8 Sir. Blessed I am to be listening to steady flow of pearls from ocean of knowledge. Parnam at your feet
Thank you Guru for your simple and powerful meditation diksha 🙏🙏🙏
I've been waiting a long time for this! Thank you!
Swamiji u r an avataar connecting all to one.U r truly necessity of kali kaal.pranams,prayers.
Ditto
Maharaj Pranam ! You have explained it so beautifully. Thank you very much for teaching us the various paths and traditions of Sanatan Dharma in simple ways so that we understand correctly.
Om Namah Shivaya
My pranam to Swami ji for such an explanation of Kashmiri Shaivism
Thank you Maharaj for practical demonstration.
Dear Swami Ji,
Very good video. I watched it many times. Really grateful. I think that Kabir Das Ji when he says that God reveals his name and I am listening to his name, he refers to Anahat Naad yoga.
Regards..
Thank you swamiji for familiarizing us with Kashmiri Shaivism. It also appears to be effective in showing the Jiva the TRUTH.
Thank You! Please more of This 😊😘🙏❤️🌈😜😍💐
Wonderful explanation of saivasim by swamiji to know about the subject very rarely explained by Hindu scholars to devotees/seekers of truth.
Pranam Swamiji.
Swami ji... pranams
Shaivism an inexplicable experience of ones true nature
Thank you so much for wonderful teachings and experience 🙏
Greetings.
Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful discourse & guidance to Mankind by Revered Swamiji.

Swamiji.. you are the best🤗 many thanks !
My most fav video right now. Shivoham
Swamiji one request - please have a discussion on the Shiva Sutras as well.
Was eagerly waiting for this since i heard abt Vignana Bhairava in Swami Ji Mindfullness video.....Thnk u...
What a wonderful teacher. Namaste guruji.
In Kashmiri language with ref to Bhairaav Bharun is filling and ravun is losing. Prayers on Shivratri are to Shiva as Bhairava.
God singing his own name. All I have to do is to just sit and listen. 🙏
Do you know who he was referring to? I think he said Kapil Das?
Yes!!
Om Namah Shivaya,
Love, Jonas
Thank u so much Swamiji for a wonderful session. 🙏
Om Namah Shivaya
SWAMI JI STAY BLESSED
Wonderful ,thanks for the good equipment used for this lecture please use similar equipment always.
He reflects Swami Vivekanand in many ways ,blessed soul.
There are no such approaches for one who approached , he simply plays with it by teaching it to others .. om namah shivay
Om Namah Shivaya
Swamiji Jay thakur,I want to meet you (yr darshan)... please deliver lectures on tripura rahashya
The lost knowledge which is older than HADDPA Civilisation, DHANYAWAD SWAMI JI. Plz tell us abt SHIVA SUTRA & SPANDA KARIKA, & PRTYABHIJÑÃHRDAYAM.
Beautiful overview of the Vignyana Bhairava concept Thanks for teaching us a nice and powerful meditation technique which can be practiced everyday. Awesome.
Love you from Karnataka swamiji
Amazing talk by swamiji. I've been waiting for his talk about Kashmir Shaivism for quite sometime and I finally got it. Though I tried to learn about it from books and others' talks, his well articulated talk makes sense to you better.
Om Namah Shivaya
Dear Swamiji, I thank you for the statement at 29:34 (min:sec) of this video. I now am not an enemy of the pot. THANK YOU🙏.
Experience is the connection between subject and object.
1. Put the Ultimate Reality on the object side and you get dualistic devotion.
2. Put the Ultimate Reality on the subject side and you get Sankhya or Yoga Samadhi.
3. Put the Ultimate Reality on the relation between subject and object, on the experience between the two and empty the subject and object and you become free of their bondage, that's Buddhist way.
4. Put the Ultimate Reality as the substratum of the the subject, object and the relation between them and you get Advaita or Kashmiri Shavism.
Much awaited!
Jai Maa! Need more sessions on Kashmir Shaivism from our beloved and revered Swami (Biswarup Maharaj) 🙏🙏
Dear brother, would you please tell me who is Biswarup Maharaj? Is this a name of Swami Sarvapriyanandaji?
@@raysoumik_ Yes, that's his premonastic name. In Ramakrishna order, monks are often called by their premonastic name..🙏
@@anubhabrsv Thank you so much brother! I always wanted to know his pre-monastic name. Do you know something more about Swami Sarvapriyananda ji? I mean his birthdate, exact pre monastic name etc.? I will be very grateful to you if you tell me these things if you know. Jai maa!
@@raysoumik_ It is impossible to forget those days, few of us - students of Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith, Purulia went to Deoghar Ramakrishna Mission to attend a youth convention on practical spirituality.. we met many of the sadhus, old and young, specially Biswarup maharaj (he was a brahmachari then), cheerful and elevating, he came to the place where we were staying - had lot of discussions..! If I am not mistaken, he's almost 50 years old now. Jai Maa!
@@anubhabrsv
I am much overwhelmed to know that you met him! I always have this dream to meet him. I also know that he is 50 years old now. As you have met him if you can know about his birthdate then please inform me. I will ever be very grateful to you.
Thank You so much Swami Ji
All great knowledge, books and books and more books, knowledge is part of it all, but alone, without art, it is a hell of an enlightment path.
Where is the music, the chanting, the dancing, where is the art, the love making, where is the most important part of the "living it" in order to transcend it all through enjoying the ecstasy of seing it, listening to it, preserving it, being it?
Why is the artistic part always occulted, when in the tantric transmition it has always been the largest part. The pathless path, the direct one, is taught through art, the meditation is in the art, the love is in art, the beauty is in art, the observation of divine art in nature, in the growing process and slow rithm of vegetables fruits and life in all it's aspects. How can you really fall in love, be love if your path is mainly in reading books?
The monastic world has that habit of been gready of even, and of making you feel that they are the only ones who have the keys, because they
studied undreds of books, it is an heavy and manipulating lie.
The most enlighten peoples, are the natural respectful creative ones.
Yes. And this sounds very Kashmir Shaivism! :)
And, also, Vedanta, "the books" and the wisdom, knowledge of the pure, clear, uncluttered mind,
knowing the true nature, Shiva.. Brahman.. The source and essence of Tao itself.
"I" find 'myself' as both the tantric and the vedantic, "both". They, this, I.. am One. All is God
Om Namah Shivaya, Love, Jonas
There is a difference , between "Soham" and "Hams". Hamsa is "Aham Idam".. more closer to the Self. Soham is "Idam Aham". Very little and subtle difference, but in Kashmir Shaivism, it is a difference of one tatva, or stage.
Up from Ishwar to Sadashiv. 🙏🙏
Can you pls clarify - which is the higher tatwa? Hamsa or Soham and how ? 🙏🙏
@@jyotiraina2887 "Hamsa" as I understand, is a tad higher. Here I -Aham, is accepted first. Though, in the subtle sense , there is no difference, since, SHIV alone is existing in all the Tattvas. Ultimately, the Sadhak grows beyond Mantras.
It is only from the Kashmir Shaivism, point of view, I said so.
Move on any path, and that will lead you to SHIV alone. 🙏
Excelente síntesis del Shaiviamo. Gracias!!
No words to say about this guru.only I can say om namha shivay.
Totally immersive.... Wonderful 😌
Namaskaram Guru 🙏🙏🙏
I hope some day i meet you in person, listen to you and seek your blessings...OM...i pray
Wonderful discourse. Kindly accept my respectful obeseince on your lotus feet .
An excellent extract of Kashmir Saivaism.Wanted to gift you a set of Books through Advaita Ashram,Kolkata provided they take this responsibility to send you across.A lot of regards for conducting the discourse..
May I contact you? I want to learn kashmiri shaivasim. 🙏
