    Ohh, SwamiJi...
    Your voice is not earthly. Whatever You utter is listened with ultra clarity without effort.
    You are constantly blessed by Maa Saraswati!
    The All Compassionate One has sent You on earth for our highest welfare.❤️❤️❤️...

    I've found my guru. This dude is dope. Pure truth being revealed and It's exactly what I need need to hear at this time because these are the ideas I've been talking about most lately. I live in Hollywood so money, sex, and material things have so much importance yet I'm hoping to fall in love with god. He will fulfill me in a way a LA 10 is unable to.

    After the 'leap of faith', my logical mind has been convinced that every experienced phenomenon by every one and everything is a wave in Awareness/Consciousness. Yet, I struggle to embrace it & assimilate it into every living moment. How to cross the boundary into that expansive state?

    One who seriously desires to achieve enlightenment..even once in any life time..will be drawn towards it even unknowingly again and again...I first came across this book and even bought this book called Ashtavakra Gita.. without knowing it's importance.. without even knowing about the word "Advaita" only to realise two years later the importance of this subject and the text!!! The supreme consciousness takes u holding ur hand..you need to just surrender..and it will happen on its own!

    We r like the ice cubes in a glass of water..but actually in reality there s no glass..it's only water..
    Ice cubes are only name n form.
    Water is the reality..or in this case consciousness. Consciousness is an energy field in which we all take form.

    Or we can say..
    We are like the ice cubes in a glass of water..as long as we retain our shape or identify with our body n mind we remain distinct from water/consciousness . When we surrender we dissolve our identity and become one with water/ consciousness that we always were.
    The creation we see weaves a web of Maya and we get lost in it.

    @rahulpsharma 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wanna ask this question:
    What is the relationship between Sat and Chit... Very often, Swamiji has quoted that when you look at your hand, then your experience is that 'i' am looking at my hand and not my hand is looking at me... There by trying to prove that 'I' am sentient and hand isn't... I am chit...!!
    OTH, very often while discussing the positions of Pure Existence, Swamiji has quoted that the reality for things to exist is that Existence itself appears as things and not the other way round...!!! i.e., things don't exist but it is the existence that appears as names and forms...!!
    So now there are two things here.... One is the concept of Sentience as shown in the oft quoted example of 'looking at your hand' experience (Chit) and the other of elaboration of Existence...!!
    So when we discuss insentient things we look at it fm point of view of Existence Example... When we look at Sentient beings we use the examples to arrive at Chit...!!
    So as per non-duality, are both Existence and Chit the same...?? If yes, does it mean that Existence is Sentient...??

    • @112deeps
      @112deeps 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      According to masters Sat - Chit - Ananda (in English Existance (Truth or Reality) - Knowledge - Bliss) is also the God Principle leading to the God experience. Distinction and discrimination of the language itself leads to the clarity and experience. Read the Gospel of master Ramakrishna

      @SampathGopi 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That might be your current state of understanding. Some people have gone one step above that and realized that both the experiencer and the experience is one single imagination.

    • @SampathGopi
      @SampathGopi 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What I meant to say is: I am the awareness which is aware of both experience and the experiencer. The experience and experiencer come together and go together and you existed before that (since you know that, just before to it, they were absent) , for example as in the case of moving from experiencing the blankness (absence of objective experience) of deep sleep to another type of experience (dream, which is objective experience)

      Are you stupid? First, learn to write properly. Second, why would you hurt yourself? Would you cut your own arm off? If it is a reflection, then what is it reflecting? You. When you realize you are the Self, there is no more sorrow. This thoughts will not come. One cannot embody fully the divine if he still has seeds of ego in him.
