- Talk by Smt. Swami Sarva-Priya-Nandaji Maharaj at Hindu Temple of Augusta, GA on 28th May 2016.
Swami Sarvapriyananda is a dynamic young monk of the Ramakrishna Math. He joined the Ramakrishna Order at Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith, Deoghar, Jharkhand in 1994. Since then he has served the Ramakrishna Mission in various capacities including Vice Principal of the Deoghar Vidyapith Higher Secondary School, Principal of the Sikshana Mandira Teachers' Training College at Belur Math, and as the first Registrar of the Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University at Belur Math. At present he is an acharya at the monastic probationers training centre at Belur Math.
He holds a degree in business management from the Xavier Institute of Management (XIMB) Bhubaneshwar. His interests are in the fields of spirituality, philosophy, management science and education.
The 10 things to do BEFORE meditation. Swami Ashokanandaji's instructions on the DO's before meditation PROBABLY in the order of priority.
1. Regularity ie DON"T even lose one day.
2. One time. Maintain the time. Early morning - Brahma Mahurta or during dusk or even during noon or at midnight
3. Place - a room or even a corner of a room. Or a meditation mat ie an Aasana.
4. Don't struggle with negative thought rather Concentrate on the positive thoughts. Mind can hold onto only one thought so make active associations to positives.
5. Association - avoid wrong associations eg trashy shows or praise and criticism.
6. Practice of asceticism ie make life simplified.
7. Sit with complete detachment - no husband wife mother father child and completely alone
8. Yearning for God.
9. Connect to god (NOT do immoral thing and connect it to God)
10.Ever meet and hear about God from a Brahmanishtha ie the words of a holy person.

Swami Sarvapriyananda, what a gift you are to this manifestation.
Maybe others will agree-somewhat unlike many other teachers, something about the Swami always felt so... natural, simple, friendly, 'down to earth' as one says. Not a single sign that he felt 'elevated' over others. A true teacher aiming at one service: to get rid of ignorance through knowledge. He pursues this 'goal' simply, one-focusedly, but also in a way that makes you feel at home. Almost like it is a course for 'children'. Never speaking too high, never mystifying, explaining every step. And, something about this approach makes him feel the opposite of an 'elder' or authority or 'sage'. He comes across, in other words, as youthful, inquisitive, delighted...
That is why, in this video, it got me for the first time how beautiful he himself is. Perhaps because he is seated and not wearing his skull cap. Everything is otherwise the same, but I see some grey hair. An older face.
I only say this in recognition of that beauty. I sense he made a very conscious choice to be as normal as he could appear, ensuring his listeners feel exactly at his level. But, for a flash, I could see in him the realization level he would never flaunt or display. I saw the old man he will grow into and it was very beautiful.
I look forward to years, decades I hope, of his teachings filling this world. As he ages in appearance, although this is only appearance, it will be even clearer that he is a guru for us, in a digital age. He has understood something in the spiritual evolution of efficient means.
I rejoice of the appearance of a 'wise old man' for our time.
Thank you Swami. Brahman is with you and with us.
I am very fond of swamiji's lecture as they are mind blowing. I am in Vipasana meditation for the last ten years doing one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening religiously on full lotus pose. These ten points are of great help for a good meditation. Buddha was thorough with Patanjali yoga sutra and went up to 8th jana. Buddha wanted even ordinary people should do meditation for their betterment and the world too. So he did R&D and simplified the technique. I am a changed person with less temper, no longing, more compassion, focussed in my job as a risk engineer. I believe a lot of good things have taken place after initiation in to meditation. I love to give, helpful, sharing info, grateful to everyone and always feeling that others should meditate and obtain great benefits. So I always talk about meditation to known as well as to unknown people and tried to help them to get in to meditation (yai passico - come & see). I am an US citizen and live in SCA for the last 20 years but my heart is very much with Bharath Mata. I send money to India to organizations like Ramakrishna Mission annually. I felt that for many years Bharath Mata being illtreated by unscrupulous corrupted politicians. After NaMo's election, like millions all over the world, I feel that Bharath Mata is in safe hands and I become Modi Bhakt. Everyday, I spent a lot of time reading different stories in face book etc. That is a great distraction for me and my meditation is slowed down. Swamiji's this lecture has helped me to take a decision to stay away from these to maintain good company. I would visit the Monastery near Irvine with in few weeks.

Wow great experience shared 👍👌
I am completely intrigued my Swami Sarvapriyananda because he is explaining everything in a way that I can understand what the Sutras truly mean. Thank you for your all the examples you give which brings light to our true self and to life in general. My biggest gratitude to you and those you make it possible for me to watch this on You Tube.
Ok
So much practical with inspiring connecting stories. Meditating is like placing oneself inside a mosquito net, ensuring there is no tear in the net and it is securely tucked, so that the buzzing mind is kept outside.
Have been following RK Mutt since I was a kid. I like the simplicity and purity of all the swamis there.
Everytime I see him , I feel God is going to talk to me about truth of life
Sarvapriyananda ji's teachings are very easy to digest because he makes it so easy to relate to when coming to ancient scriptures and yoga philosophy.
Swami's discourses are so crystal clear and penetrate ..... resonate the heart. A real and great deal for me in walking on 'the path'.
Today I had to face a had incident in my workplace.but having seen this video now I am feeling peace in my mind.Take my pranaam Maharaj ji...

such a beautiful style of presenting ...amazing pool of talent in vivekananda center ..belur math..
Swami Sarvapriyananda lectures are par excellence. The clarity of sound recordings in U.S. is far superior. In India the sound recording clarity is not of that standard. In spiritual lectures of the level of Sarpriyanandaji this quality aspect has its own importance so I think.

What a beautiful thought: offer every act to God 🌸🌸🌸, while doing the worldly tasks, dedicate to Worship of God 🙏🏼👌🏽
Swamiji,'s lectures on vedanta are inspirational. I am trying to listen the various lectures as much as I can find on youtube. The easy Language he uses to simplify the intricate teachings in Upanishads is very convincing. I pray to God, someday he may give me an opportunity to meet Swamiji in person so I can bow down my head on his feet.
Swamiji my humble pranams to you 🙏you are my first Guru though I didn’t met you in my life..but every day I listen to ur videos..so inspirational and always motivating us towards spiritual journey 🙏..waiting to have your Dharshan Swamiji
Sairam Swami Sarvapriyananda Ji. Listening to your teachings it is becoming easy to focus on the thoughts in a methodical way rather than being lost in any which way thought swinging by. I have even written out the thoughts so I can focus on them as they become a part of my being.With Infinite Love and Gratitude. Saiasha.
Thank You Swamy!!! Excellent delivery as always!!!

Meditation thoughts I meditate upon. I is the "SELF"I am Brahman. I am Sat Chit Ananda. I am the Witness Consciousness. I am the Sakshi. I illumine the mind. The mind lends the consciousness to The sense organs. The sense organs send the consciousnessUp to the tips of the fingers. I Feel the Consciousnessin my whole body.
I am Existence. I am Consciousness. I am Bliss. In me every thing emanates. In me every thing merges back.I am Sat Chit Ananda. I am God. I am Brahman. I am That I am.I am That I am.
Pranam Guruji 🙏
Thank you, Swamiji. This is very practical and helpful.
Pranam Swamiji 🙏🏻
Very important tips for good meditation really it works
Thank you swamiji 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely helpfull for everybody.
Namaste, I think the relevant ten points before the start of meditation has been well explained, because preparation of the mind and body is very important before one can meditate. Thank you for bringing out these points. OM
Beautiful lectures.
Gone through the lecture by Swamiji but it is an introduction, although very important, I need a guideline of meditation (sitting posture, breathing, way to concentrate the mind and any other things related to).Swamyji, please help me. I am earnestly waiting for your response

PRONAM THAKUR
Excellent but missing the meditation part, can we have an video or even audio for the meditation part please
Lipika Phani, Swamiji instructed us not to record meditation portion. It was a guided meditation technique.
sriramaramanaam was that yoga nidra or different one??
Type sarvapriyananda meditation
Swami ji, My humble Pranaam !
Could you please explain the 9th point if some one does not believe in religious GOD, then what should he do ? To whom he should offer or connect all his day to day activities ? Is it important to have God in Advaita philosophy ? If yes, then what is the difference between dualism and non-dualism ?
Sandeep Sharma please ask swami if my this boy and mind Belong this very present world then if my body and mind rebirth can myself recollect you at the time my birth because it's necessity
Question to your answer is touched by swami ji at 12.48. & 46.20 . Offer them to Brahman or atman , pure conciousness(self ).
🙏🙏
JUST AWSMMMMMM.............
Apart from above mentioned points, also need to have right food, preferably sathvic.
tq ji
Please correct the first line of description - it is not "Smt." Swami as that abbreviation "Smt." stands for Shrimati in society and working world of India. Thank you.
A note: Swamiji is not a Smt. (shrimati - female). He is Shri (male).
It is not Shrimati, it is Shrimat or Shrimad.
thanx
🙏🙏👌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Swami ji said in video that he will discuss 10 points before pratice of meditation.. so is there any video of him teaching meditation ?
Type sarvapriyananda meditation
Please tell me
how find peace in every life
Where is the next part?
what is the role of mudra in meditation
Ping
I am not believer of any god or religion then what should I do. Am I forbidden for meditation?
Soumyendra Goswami no meditation has nothing to do with religion.....you can do meditation
Soumyendra Goswami then, you are a seeker....seek it by yourself.... you will become Buddha
Can the guided meditation video be uploaded? Thank you.
Trivandrum Padmanabhan Janardanan, it is guided meditation. Swamiji requested us not to record.
I can't meditate means can't concentrate pl give suggestion
Meditation & concentration are different. Meditation means witnessing the mind( thoughts, feelings ,desires)as witness conciousness (sakshi or drishta bhav). Concentration means focusing your attention on a fixed goal . Concentration is short term purpose oriented . Meditation is living in present , there by embracing the result( efforts, skills may be improved , honed ).
Pls provide mail I'd of Swami Ji
