"The Upanishads" - A Selection for Meditation and Contemplation - Advaita - Vedanta
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- This is a reading for meditation from 3 Upanishad texts - Isa, Kena, and Mandukya. Translated by Juan Mascaro.
The Upanishads are regarded as the “crown” or the “cream” of the Vedas and are the Hindu scriptures which primarily discuss philosophy, meditation, and the nature of God; they form the core spiritual thought of Vedantic Hinduism. They are an unsystematized compilation of dialogs, monologues and anecdotes composed by multiple authors, which contain the foundations for most of the later philosophies and religions of India.
The Sanskrit term upaniṣad literally means "sitting down beside." The word derives from “upa” (near), “ni” (down), and “sad” (to sit), and refers to "sitting down near" a spiritual teacher (guru) in order to receive instruction in the Guru-shishya tradition.

Thank you! I love all your recordings, but this one is particularly beautiful. The combination of voice with the awesome background music (is it Brian Eno?) really helps to silence the mind
I just have to tell you, your choice of music with your recordings is so moving. It moved something in my chest, particularly when Sita Ram started to play. I have my favourites and this one I keep coming back to 🙇🏼♀️

As a 13 years old, I died and went to that realm this picture depicts. Those angels didn’t have wings but were beings with light body’s and the atmosphere was saturated with this intoxicating sound that left me in a state of bliss for 3 days. The event to this day remains etched in my memory and heart as if it had happened yesterday. I am now 70 years old. Consciousness does not die.
Thank you for telling this 🙏🏼🌻
Strange how you mention this, because in our church in Kenya, I saw this vision, plus many more, as a child. I keep telling people about this, and nobody believes it! I saw many saints, and the most shocking image of the Virgin Mary was in full color(always changing shades of green like oil on water!), moving and looking at me. She was so beautiful, and it started after mass when everybody had gone home, and mom and her friends were done talking, like hours after mass. I was left alone in church since mom and her friends had made their way outside, and at the same time as mom reached out her hand through the church door and said my name for me to come to her, it started with these goosebumps and what looked like sand being blown on all the now wet windows of the church. I screamed because not only the images but my whole being was feeling something i cannot explain massive chills allover my body!!! and mom ran in and picked me up, not knowing what she had ran into. As she noticed what was going on around her, her screams made everybody run inside to see what was happening. For 14 days or so after this, images were stuck on the windows, and even the Muslims came to see the church, which was completely broken from the shock of people running in, not believing, to be met with moving images. am almost 50 years now and this happened when i was around 7 years and i will never forget it..
I also saw a vision of men on mount Zion Bob marley was there smiling

thank you !
Wah! This is Wonderful dearest Yayasara! ❤
How fruitful are your readings.
Where can we request readings if I may be so bold to ask?
Hi Karine, you can just request anywhere in the comments and if I can access and connect with the teaching will be happy to add to my rather extensive list! With all good wishes 🌺
Thank you for being so bold to ask, Karine; thank you, Jayasara, for your welcoming answer.
@@SamaneriJayasara
Dearest Jayasara.
Your list is already truly beyond extensive.
I have been looking for a reading of the entire Vijnana Bhairav Tantra. Christopher Wallis is busy with an extensive translation on this text but there are no full compact readings available. I wanted to ask but not too boldly because there are about two sensual verses but it's mostly meditative practices.
I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't something resonating or it might be but not a very practical request
Hi Karine, yes I have been considering how to record selections of this teaching but it is not easy for various reasons so I am still debating it. As you know, it is an extensive list and exposition of myriad methods and techniques of practice. Whilst it's an incredible text, I'm not sure reading it verbatim - list by list, part by part would work and could just be overwhelming for people. I also have another Kashmir Shaivism text that might work better so will consider that one. Anyway, I have it on my list and will definitely consider how I might integrate it and format it to make it accessible for listeners. Thanks for the prompt!
Thank you 💕🙏🏻
Jayasara thank you 🙏 ❤️

On the lips of every leave, splashing along the splashing stream , withholding not a bit sun showers ever being, silence and sound, birds moving around like smiles stretching to miles on ever still face of the space, out of the race, nowhere to go tasting at last the taster of all.
mam,Can you share with your experience how to abide in emptiness and liberate from individualty 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Dear Bhuwan, as the Buddha himself declared as the core of the practice: "Don't cling". Simply disidentify yourself from all phenomena, especially your thoughts and mental processes - look on with watchful observation and mindfulness, and keep letting go where you see yourself clinging and identifying. Recognise your unchanging and natural state of Awareness and Presence and abide in that. Whenever you notice yourself wandering and suffering, come back, come back again and again to simply relaxing in Awareness itself. This is your true refuge and the boat that will take you to the 'other shore'. Although it is Here and Now, so there really is no other shore. Have a listen to this simple and direct teaching: th-cam.com/video/A34zMe7EDPE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=SamaneriJayasara
@@SamaneriJayasara mam can you make a video on guided meditation on self enquiry 🙏
What/whose art image is that please? I'd love to learn more about it, thank you 🙏
I just got it off Google images but apparently it is from the Essene Gospel. Not sure where you would find it.

This has not been easy for me.
Can someone tell me which Upanishad is being read during the last 5 minutes of this recording?
ISA UPANISHAD
Behold the universe in the glory of God: and all that lives
and moves on earth. Leaving the transient, find joy in the
Eternal: set not your heart on another’s possession.
Working thus, a man may wish for a life of a hundred
years. Only actions done in God bind not the soul .
There are demon-haunted worlds, regions of utter dark
ness. Whoever in life denies the Spirit falls into that dark
ness of death.
The Spirit, without moving, is swifter than the mind; the
senses cannot reach it: He is ever beyond them. Standing
still, he overtakes those who run. To the ocean of his being,
the spirit of life leads the streams of action.
It moves, and it moves not. It is far, and It is near. It
is within all, and It is outside all.
Who sees all beings in his own Self, and his own Self in
all beings, loses all fear.
When a sage sees this great Unity and his Self has be¬
come all beings, what delusion and what sorrow can ever
be near him ?
The Spirit filled all with his radiance. He is incorporeal
and invulnerable, pure and untouched by evil. It is the
supreme seer and thinker, immanent and transcendent. It
placed all things in the path of Eternity.
Into deep darkness fall those who follow action. Into
deeper darkness fall those who follow knowledge.
One is the outcome of knowledge, and another is the
outcome of action. Thus have we heard from the ancient
sages who explained this truth to us.
One who knows both knowledge and action, with action
overcomes death and with knowledge reaches immortality.
Into deep darkness fall those who follow the immanent.
Into deeper darkness fall those who follow the transcendent.
One is the outcome of the transcendent, and another is
the outcome of the immanent. Thus have we heard from the
ancient sages who explained this truth to us.
One who knows both the transcendent and the immanent,
with the immanent overcomes death and with the transcen¬
dent reaches immortality.
The face of truth remains hidden behind a circle of gold.
Unveil it, O god of light, that I who love the true may see!
O life-giving sun, off-spring of the Lord of creation, soli¬
tary seer of heaven! Spread thy light and withdraw thy
blinding splendour that I may behold thy radiant form:
that Spirit far away within thee is my own inmost Spirit.
May life go to immortal life, and the body go to ashes.
. Om my soul, remember past strivings, remember! O my
soul, remember past strivings, remember!
By the path of good lead us to final bliss, O fire divine
thou god who knowest all ways. Deliver us from wandering
evil. Prayers and adoration we offer unto thee.
Just a beautiful reading. Thank you dear.

@ 25 min, word for "end of love longing" is Tatvanam (sp?).
Google didn't find that word.
Correct spelling?
‘Tadvanam’ is a compound of tat and vanam. It means ‘which deserves to be worshipped as the one Atman of all living things’. The Brahman is well-known as Tadvanam and should, therefore, be worshipped as Tadvana, a word denoting its virtue. - Shankara
@@SamaneriJayasara thank you dear. The poetry "end of love longing" really stopped me in my tracks 🥰
What's the picture please ? (For a friend of Love)
I just got it off Google images but apparently it is from the Essene Gospel. Not sure where you would find it.
@@SamaneriJayasara Thank a lot. And thank you for the Voice :)

Hi Naveen, thanks for your enquiry re. Patreon. Yes, I have that option if people wish to support here:

When I AM is realized to be a mind game and 'someone'' disolved into the real world, could that being still understand
how to pay the bill and run a bank account when they are totally alone with this understanding. This is what
my mind is wondering if it were to give up and remain still?????? This is a fear in the mind, but when you are
too old to live on the streets and have a comfortable place to be would you be capable of dealing with payment???
The true and deep letting go does require trust, faith, and surrender - but also wisdom. The wisdom is in knowing that there is a power that will take care of all these mundane affairs if someone were to be dissolved completely of their ego. A rare occurrence in this world, but as we know there are Masters who have done this. They are then surrounded by all the supports they need to survive on this earthly plane if that is their karma. They know and trust this power and let it flow through them. As Jesus said, "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"
Don't worry too much - just let go little by little with joyful abandon. As Ramana says, "It will all come alright in the end." 🌺💜🐬
What is the thought that ends thought?
No thought.

WOW 😀
So thankful for doing more of the Hindu scriptures 👍❤🙏
I have floated and spun in that sea of abyss inside of me. And in that solitude could not grasp for words to speak the tranquility that I felt all around me. It was at that moment that I first stopped screaming. I asked for knowledge they were the first to come to me.
