      But, alas! Inspite of his tireless efforts to inculcate ancient Vedantic wisdoms amongst the most brutely materialistic people of this globe, he would never be considered for Nobel Peace prize! Rather it may be his great prize if some of his American followers come to the path of salvation and self sacrifice from the multfarius channels of lust, greed, sex, materialistic power and aggression to grab others' wealths etc.

    Respected dear Swamiji, i was disturbed yesterday why i am remaining the same inspite of all sadhanas and doing sravanam of geetha and few more texts. You made it clear that my mind needs little more cleaning and a little less clinging to this ephemeral world. 🌺🕉️🙏

    Listening to his discourse is like drinking honey. But assimilating and bring it day to day practice is another. Wonderful wonderful. When I sit for sadana assimilating absorbing tears well up . If we want to do justice to his tireless teaching, it’s only by practising what he teaches.I see God in him great Vivekanda, Ramkrishna Paramahamsa and beloved matha Saradha. My pranayam

    HH Swami Sarvapriyananda Ji Maharaj is a gem among such Gurus.
    Swami Ji we pray that you will serve to uplift humanity and bring back a humane quotient in us.

    I don't know how
    to change my life around...
    I watch this video
    and what arises in me is overwhelm
    and stress.
    my dream life feels 999-trillion universes
    away from my reality:
    - I have minimal work (I live in poverty, always have)
    - the place I rent is old, old and teeny tiny-tiny-tiny
    - I have passions and talents that could make me rich, but...
    - I'm single, have been my whole life, I die for true love
    - fat and diabetic
    - old now, no longer attractive
    - no friends
    - always a million-trillion stressful things to do...

If I have not mistaken you have told in one of the aporakshanuvuti classes that you will be starting Bhagwat Geeta classes.. So shall we not get those classes online.. And also the monthly "Ask Swami Session " where various queries are been taken up by you.. Hope to get more live session from you swamiji..

    When knowledge is a subject of mind and these all are beyond mind..how can knowledge be sufficient.? Data second stage is information, 3rd stage is knowledge, 4th stage is experience and 5th stage is Realisation. Eg- a kid can also have information how to drive a car in a manual but he/she can't drive.as that's just data and information. When he actually learns how to drive- that is the knowledge but still he has to be so cautious..not realised yet..but after practicing driving, he gains experience and then he doesn't need to put his mind while driving..it happens automatically like changing gears of a car. That phase leads to Realisation..

    One has to be a adhikari (eligibility) to assimilate the Vedantic knowledge. How to qualify. 1. Pancha maha yagna-Deva yagna, Pitru yagna, Brahma yagna, Jana yagna and Bhoota yagna. Then 2. Sadhana Chatusthya Sampeti. a) Viveka, or Wisdom b) Vyragya or dispassionate. c) Desire or Mumukshwata. d) Disipline or Shataka (6) sympathy
    The first one is called Karma yoga and the second is called four important sadhanas and qualities requird.

    Gyana and karma are not different. Gyana karma kriya bhakti are all steps of a stair case. Interconnected and incomplete without each other. There can be a different approach for this path. But the path is the same. Its about understanding the gyana and turning it into upayoga as a part of life and make your life in a way to attain gyana. Its important the vision of the person and the place he is walking is correct before he tries to understand the trees of the forest. The mis understanding is, karma is not action. Action would be pravarthana. Karma means work. Even chintana is also a karma. This does not mean you do it for others or for yourself. You do it for dharma as in righteousness

    • @kanshiraam
      @kanshiraam 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jnana and karma are different since former is dependent on the object of knowledge and karma is dependent on the agent. Read the commentary of Shri Shankaracharya on the Brahma sutra 1.1.4.
