A Spiritual Cure for Hate, Racism & Casteism: Manisha Panchakam

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.ย. 2024
- Discovering the essential divinity of all beings leads to love and respect for everyone. Based on Shankara's hymn, Manisha Panchakam, and the story of his encounter with a filthy outcaste who was actually Lord Shiva, taking this guise to teach Shankara an important lesson about bias and discrimination.
According to the non-dual teachings of Advaita Vedanta, the true self, atma, has no caste, no gender, no nationality, no ethnicity, etc. It is the inner divinity that dwells in us all, equally, identically. The goal of Vedanta's spiritual teachings is to lead you to discover atma and gain moksha, enlightenment. Recognizing your own true nature as atma, you will recognize the same in everyone else.

Swami Tadatmanada, you are a Savior for Hindu Religion. Highly intellectual Hindu Vedanta is explained in simple ,comprehensive way that you are endowed with highest truth. Sahasra Pranams Guruji
The first blunder,Hinduism is not any religion like abrahamic faiths..
In the absence of ignorance, there is only love. ❤️ 🙏🏻
Misinterpretation is a serious misuse of power, abuse of knowledge and betrayal of people's trust. I am not surprised that some Brahmans interpreted the scriptures to their own benefit because you know power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely..
This problem disintegrates whenever such quality work as yours is put out there for all, with content designed for an audience of every age.
The days of hoarding information are long gone.
Thanks for the great work; always a joy to spend some virtual time with you 🙏
In fact cast system did not become rigid until Manu , who was a Khshtriya(warrior class) because if you look at it Parashurama who was a bramhin lead a Khastriya life and Vishwamitra who was a Khshatriya by birth lead the life of a bramhin.
You are a real guru who has such a profound knowledge for humanity.
Great and enlightening explanation Guru ji..🙏🙏
The four Varnas and their are beautifully explained, It is merely a social stratification based on the work people did. Adi Shankara's Manisha Panchakam was explained crystal clear - amazing!. Thanks Swami Ji.
You can also refer Bhagvat Gita (Reference - BG 18:41 to 18:44)

And have the wisdom to realize what he is talking about
We as Hindus , many of us don't know these in depth meanings.🙏🙏🙏
As always, very clearly explained. Thank you Guruji 🙏
assalam o alykum , respected swami ji clarity of thoughts in your lectures is remarkable,, my humble request is that please give a lecture on vedas , and tell me how to learn Sanskrit the best and easy way you know....regards, Uzbek khan
uzbek khan dear khan. Please listen to Swami sarvapriyananda on TH-cam
Swami Sarvapriyanda is the best. You must study his teachings
🙏💗Hari Om💗🙏
This is greater than any knowledge to stay a social equilibrium and perfect touching human kind in presents..Self realization . Thankyou 🙏💐
Wonderful,so relevant now ,in this present context of the world,pronam to you for simplified explanation 🙏🙏
I am thankful to you for all your discourses. Very many things to learn and follow from you. Just have one point to say, when chandala in the story is described to have said some enlightening points to shankara, it would have been better if the chandala was not said to be an incarnation of Shiva because that takes away the intelligence of chandala and people like me don't see him as a normal human being who could be so enlightened to speak in such manner
I want to just quit everything and follow Sanatna Dharma and just want knowledge, truth, peace and enlightenment 🙏
Those who spend their time trying to get rid of hatred, racism "casteism" are really spinning their wheels getting nowhere spiritually. These kind of people are really saying until these things are gotten rid of I will not practice the Dharma. These things are all interpersonal. But the practice/path of Vedanta or Buddhism is intrapersonal.
Sir your channel is wonderful
Pranam Guruji, i love your ways of explaining many subject matter and this one is too very eloquent and perfectly do the justice to the subject for its understanding by masses for their clear understanding, conduct, social harmony and progress to self enlightenment. This truth must be said boldly for devastating the hatredness of racism or casteism and bring harmony of pious understanding. Thank you
Thank you for another amazing lesson swamiji!
Namaskaram Swami ji!
In this case, our little but beautiful Hindutemple is really open-minded! Everyone is welcome to celebrate the Pūja and the community w/ their Brahman gave to my wife and me a „hindu-wedding-ceremony“ to our 18. Wedding-anniversary! ❤❤❤
Wonderful. Wonderful and Greatly Wonderful,. The spiritual wisdom explained with a lovely background classical music. Very soothing experience. Thanks Swamiji. Wish your videos to reach maximum people.
🕉🕉🕉🙏
Nice to hear from you .. new video .. good one thank you.
I like your “traditional “ or root view of Vedanta.
Beautiful story and lesson!! :-)
Deep gratitude for your accessible and profound teachings. Is Vedanta compatible with quantum loop theory? Loop theorists posit that mathematics can now measure the minimum quantum of matter and the maximum scale/size of the current universe. Those physicists theorise that the edges of the universe are indeed measurable and that on a plank scale the smallest component of matter is granular - great stuff although I'm content to achieve experiential understanding through sadhana. Thank you, thank you Swamiji
I will be very much interested in it as there is a lot of speculation about the nature of consciousness and if indeed it is a quantum
Thank you, for the lectures.
The spiritual solution is understanding the " truth " of what you are and what all is related to and simultaneous purification of the heart by the practice of yoga.
Swamiji, I was wondering if you could make videos teaching how to read sanskrit? I appreciate all the knowledge you are freely sharing and it would be useful to have a deeper understanding of the texts you share. Thank you so much for your teachings 🙏.

Yes to all you said except 22:19 "in a matter of speaking it is the very same consciousness that looks at the world through your eyes and through my eyes" .
It is not a matter of speaking, it is truly so. But you know that already brother.
The universe only understands energy and vibration. what you say, look like, do for a living or sexuality mean NOTHING. The true language of the universe is energy vibration. So therefore all that happens to you is a reflection of what you project out into the world. Example: You will not experience racism if you were not projecting out some level of racism thru your frequency, same with violence, money, career, love, romance etc.... ALL IS YOUR OWN DOING.
@@tavoiaiono7885 say that to kids and infants.
Maybe adversity is our opportunity to grow. Not to blame ourselves.
Feel free to disagree.
@@aurelienyonrac You are the initial guardian of these new souls who come into the world. So their energy comes from you....the kids behaviours is a complete reflection of the parents insecurities and imbalance in their own energy and vibration, the kids and the domestic animals pick it up and reflect it back. Check you energy and the kids behaviours will too. This is also the reason why kids and domestic animals become ill and sick....it is the energy in the house often from the primary source. Dont be so hard on yourself.....just check your vibrations and energy are good each day...hence live in the NOW. forget yesterday and tomorrow. Live in the NOW!!
@@tavoiaiono7885 all right. Thank you. That helps.
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Wrong. it appears that way, but your wont attract the negative actions of another being if you did not vibrate at that level. Same thing.....you wont win the lottery or get that dream job if you did not vibrate on that level. So yes.....everything is your faulty. CHeck you vibration level everyday......this is what is means to "live in the NOW" meditate in the morning, get rid of any hate, fear, sadness, jealousy, greed etc....from your heart and go with love and happiness and NOTHING bad will happen to you.
Namaskar guruji🙏
Such a profound and a absolutely beautiful explanation swamiji! Thank you🙏🏼 There are many such enlightened beings that have mentioned about this. I can just only think of Taallapaka Annamacharya's 'Bramama okate' which talks on the same terms😊
Also refer Bhagvat Gita (Reference - BG 18:41 to 18:44)
Great intonation, great work!
🙏 excellent explanation.
Love for you
Vedic Varna classification is applicable to any society - Priests, Military, Business and Agriculturists, and Artisans/laborer where nobody is above or below, and. should not be confused with the European caste stratification to conquer and destroy natives in all continents.
The divisive European caste and casteism were introduced to divide, startify, constitutionalize, and destroy HinduPagans and Africans in both continents of India and Africa by the European racist fascist colonoizers. This caste has been a powerful and persistent trope, even though many specialists, such as the veteran sociologist Joseph Elder, have listed seven errors in the popular Western understanding of caste. One of these was that ‘Castes are uniquely Hindu’. He wrote that in India, ‘castes exist among Christians, Jains, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Muslims.’ Frequently the rules about marrying within one’s caste and avoiding interactions with other castes are as strict among Christians, Muslims, etc. Elder also puts his finger on a key element of its durability. This was that the British colonial imperial racist regime deployed it in its legal and political system.
The American anthropologist Morton Klass pointed out that the Portuguese and Spanish were themselves just evolving a system of ethnic and social stratification by biological ancestry; it was for this reason that they immediately assumed that Indian jāti endogamous groups were aimed at maintaining ‘purity of blood’.
Pronaams!🙏
Awesome!!

Really? What about narcissistic or pedophiles ???
They too have the inner divinity, just buried verrrry deeply and they are not at all in touch with it. Their sins are committed by their egos, and they will suffer the consequences from their misdeeds due to karma, but yeah, divine under all that. Even Hitler! Who has probably just come out of hell and been reincarnated as an anal parasite on a stinky buffalo or something.
namaskaram swami. Can you please upload more videos on meditation and especially the why pranayama and its methods (videos doing pranayama). And how to tackle the thoughts while meditating and especially how to not to get bad feelings when we see a women. thank you swamiji.
I think Shankara only did it to teach his disciples in a practical way since they would never have accepted it theoretically
🙏🙏🙏
Pranam.
Varna was it not? There is no mention of caste jaathi in the scriptures is what we have heard. Manu smriti talks about varna which is said to he division of labor. Could you kindly clarify swamiji.
Guru, can you revisit the english subtitles and edit them?
Swami ji in my opinion you should make attempt to distinguish between Varna system and Caste system. Varna system is prescribed in the Veda and Purana, not caste system. Caste system is a degraded use of Varna system which came into existence much latter.
It would be great if all the people can grab the true meaning of this, but not from the religious point of view.
So Shankara was not yet enlightened or "wise" in that moment...? since he needed another Guru in the form of Chandala?
We can all learn.
I do not think that Shankara was not enlightened at that time as Sankara is considered as incarnation of Lord Shiva himself .He wanted to use this occasion to illustrate his advaita(non dualism) to the world and his disciples.
I don't think learning stops even for enlightened people
Varnas is based on personality archetypes!
I find it hard to comprehend pure consciousness... I understand the logic but can't relate in daily experience...
Pure consciousness is hard to understand for anyone. It can only be understood through personal experience, which requires incorporating practices like meditation into daily life.
which instrument is played in the music?
Violin and Mruthangam
Spiritual solution is present but in India it will not be implemented because priests and politicians will not allow advait Vedant to survive and thrive and will continue with idol worshipping and caste based descrimination.
most of the idol worshipping is done by so called lower castes themselves, ironically the vedic gods didn't have idols, it was included by other folk religions which were later integrated into mainstream religion, and buddhism was actually the reason for idol worship as it integrated these religions into mainstream while vedic religion was very exclusive type of religion, hence to integrate people the vedic religion died and now we have hinduism which is combination of many religions including folk religions and their gods and their idol worshipping, but its better than having one homogenous religion by force which is what islam did, the diversity in hinduism is due to it allowing people to choose their own gods and idol worshipping otherwise we would be like christianity and islam who are even worse.
It's not religion (dogma) it's Science

I had a similar experience in a dream once. I had untouchable enter the hot tub. Everyone got out but i welcomed his presence. Maybe it was a test from these teachers..
In Geeta say evey body inside lord Vishnu himself as atma
If u insult others it's directly insult me this words in Geeta
Let see Another one story one day one man in forest with dirty dress and king came there and call him , he reply u and me are same only body is different both me and your body different for some purpose after that our atma took another body the body is just shirt for soul
soul is important in Hinduism world is illusion soul is non destructive
The body is dependent on karma next body is dependent on current karma of life
Karma means action
Sorry Guruji but Hindus never had Caste but Varna. Varna & Caste are not the same. It is the Britishers who imposed their Caste System on the Hindu's Varna System. I hope you know about it!
Thank you for sharing the wisdom of Shankara with us ignorants and novices
If you came here, you are not as ignorant as you think. Believe in yourself.
Thank you Swamiji
🕉🕉🕉🙏

India is lucky to continue exist as a country with all these discrimination. I wonder what will happen when the outcast wake up. If this was in my country, we would be divided in to hundred places.
Amazing!! Just luck (more than language or race) held a people together for more than 5 thousand years and continues to hold even today when everyone is wide awake.
respected mahatman,
our wording is not caste but varna.
Varna means color, there is different colors for the different mentality and karma or swadharma vruthi. Doctor's son doesn't become a doctor by birrh, but by his father's guidence he can becomes a Doctor. In the same way this Varna converted into caste. Horrible to see how Indians living there life with this castism.
Cast & Varna - both are same.
everything exists in GOD, and God is in everything . there is nothing less or nothing more to it, excepting it takes blessing from above. following it , takes blessing from within. thank you sir .
Yes..ALL IN ONE & ONE IN ALL.
"ಏಕಮೇವಾದ್ವಿತೀಯಂ "

🕉🕉🕉🙏
Swamiji those Four are Varna and not caste. This word Caste is western concept, it is Portuguese word used in Bharat.
Swami JI in 5:46 you said "Those who have BORN outside 4 caste" this statement is not correct, Varna is not birth based it is "Attributes/Gunna based" - Krishna has said this in GIta (Reference - BG 18:41 to 18:44)
Varna is always based on Bloodlines and Lineage , stop misinterpreting krishna
@@Sudeevarma Go and read the verse i quoted, you ignorant person.
Vaalmiki was born into a Shudra family but he became a Brahmin and wrote Ramayana. Same is for Vyas Rishi who compiled the Vedas, he was born in a Kshtriya family. Dont spread your ignorance here dumbo.
@@Jnaiha you are right actually (as per my understanding) still if you could have avoided the last line of your msg, It would give very different perception of the wisdom you have very few people have that.........we should try to encourage ignorant by making by making our language bit softer, hope i didn't offend you my dear?
It is not the way it is supposed to be. Today ,it is all about the title and the family
@@Jnaiha the only ignorant one is he who casts insults , take your religion of 33 million false gods (little g) and spread your ignorance amongst your own seed for your reward will be as dung in a field of flies . Tsk Tsk ignorance abounds

Brahman, the Self, illumines the racist and the just equally. However, there was not racism in Traditional India, but segregation and discrimination in terms of religious purity determined by social class as revealed by scripture. Yet, I wonder if varna (caste) which means color, it meant, underneath, skin color?
Hi Oscar, I'm an Indian Hindu and thought I could bring some input here. Firstly, "Traditional India" is not one uniform time period. We have the Vedas written somewhere around ~1500 BCE, according to modern historians(this date will always be disputed as orthodox Hindus believe the Vedas to have been written down by sages from Brahman much earlier). Nowhere do the Vedas mention birth-based varna and segregation on its basis, other than the Purusha Sukta where it is still unclear if the castes are birth-based or acquired identities by people.
Much later (think a few centuries before the Buddha) we had the beginning of proper birth-based castes. There was little discrimination during this period. Unfortunately, discrimination grew in time, with Manusmriti being written somewhere around ~300BCE.
We can't call it racism because there are no different races. The Indian race, itself a mixture of the Aryan and Dravidian races, is divided into different occupational clans called castes. The Vedic age did not have hierarchy in these castes, later hierarchy and discrimination emerged.
Do not deny karma or reincarnation. Do not mingle the castes it is to cause hell and imbalance, we will all suffer this sin. Just as Arjun had to do his duty but need not mourn, we too need to do our duties and not mourn the castes.
True! But 4 dogs Icon is Guru Duttatreya .Did not Acharya Thank him at His Jagriti..ShatChakraJagriti stotram....."muladhare..varijpatre...Duttatreyo pranatosmiii.."
Thank you so much for all your presentations and explanations. Here some small correction is required, Chandala means not out caste or non-Indians, it means that those who born in illiset sexual relationship. There is a other names who born in different intercaste couples. Please look into this.
Namaste Srinivas, all Sanskrit words have multiple meanings (not just one) and outcast is the most common meaning here. Please see dictionary examples below.
चाण्डाल m. cANDAla outcast
चाण्डाल m. cANDAla pariah
चण्डाला f. caNDAlA caNDAla woman
चण्डाल m. caNDAla outcaste
चण्डाल m. caNDAla man of the lowest and most despised of the mixed tribes
चण्डाल m. caNDAla outcast
चाण्डाल m. cANDAla worst among
चाण्डाल m. cANDAla person of lowest caste
@Lion Of Aryavarta Yes if you look at Yaksha Prashna in Mahabharatha ,Yaksha asks Yudhistara as to what makes one a bramhin and Yudhisthara says it is not the birth but the character and learning that makes one a bramhin.
@@SwamiT swami one question regarding varnashrama , sri Sri Trailanga Swami , Sri yukteshwar Giri , Sri Ramakrishna , Sri Dayanand and Puri shankaracharya has so much diverse views ?
Although we have and are one conscience, why do we see same things differently?
Maybe to express the true infinite multi-dimensional nature of God
@@peaveystacks4649 is God Multi dimensional, as its infinite god must/should be "No Dimensional".
Im not sure if you're asking a question or giving a comment with the last reply but regardless i have only opinion to offer. Within multi-dimensionality there is one, and infinity and all that lies in between. Multi-dimensionality maybe illusory compared to the true self, but regardless, i believe the self expresses its oneness in a muiltitude of ways. All is all....
Even infinite amounts of expression still fall under "one". Not two.
Could you imagine what the world would be like if everybody thought the same? It'd be pretty stale in my eyes. I think there's a blessing in the multitude of views in the world, although they do seem to bring ignorance and suffering, they also bring awareness and love and i think the pattern always moves towards the latter.
@@peaveystacks4649 well said.... ! If one only realises the end of a journey..!
