Vedanta NY Thank you so much for this breakdown🙏🏾 sometimes I favorite the video based on an answer Swamiji gave but often have to listen to the entire video just to find the answer again.🥰
He is awesome and I am amazed with reality of this universe in how Swami Ji answers every question. He is the one☝️ to learn from here on. I have been going through other spiritual / mediation practices and now everything matches and really makes sense. I am now beyond belief knowing science and now Vedantic philosophy - Aham Brahmasmi! (it’s real)
Wow, Swami Sarvapriyananda, really wonderful to listen to your talks. Just simply feel good . Your explanation, your voice all very soothing for my soul. I must come to see you one day, oh just to see you in person not coming to waste your time asking silly questions. Just to be in your presence I believe will do me a lot of good no talking necessary. If I can come before I die I am in my late 60s.
Pranam swami Ji. Amazing!! I was thinking he has said all that needs to be said!! I was so wrong!! Beautiful! All the questions and the answers were very much I was storming in my mind!! looks like God knows what I am struggling with. And there you are to explain them all in so simple and gentle way!! Thank you very much!!
Swamiji is enlightenment embodied! Some of his talks just throw the little "me" away. : ) Simply amazing! I can't express how grateful I am but I'l keep trying to! :)
Swamiji, your Q&A session was highly enlightening, particularly at the end where you explained the five types of relationship between consciousness and matter. The logical authority and common sense of Vedantic exposition is too overwhelming !
Your explanation is bang on or rather my understanding is as you explain. But Maharaj you look too nice rather too simple to have such brilliance all in you. Thank you Guruji.
Received answers to some queries that arose in the mind . Dhanyabaad #VedantaNY. Pranam Swamiji. It would be wonderful to have more Q&A sessions in the future.
Swami Vivekananda used to say:- "Knowledge of the Absolute depends upon no book, nor upon anything; it is absolute in itself. No amount of study will give this knowledge; is not theory, it is realization. Cleanse the dust from the mirror, purify your own mind, and in a flash you know that you are Brahman." "The pure heart is the best mirror for the reflection of truth, so all these disciplines are for the purification of the heart. And as soon as it is pure, all truths flash upon it in a minute; all truth in the universe will manifest in your heart, if you are sufficiently pure." “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” This sentence alone would save mankind, if all books and prophets were lost. This purity of heart will bring the vision of God. It is the theme of the whole music of this universe. In purity is no bondage. Remove the veils of ignorance by purity; then we manifest ourselves as we really are and know that we were never in bondage. The seeing of 'many' is the great sin of all the world. See all as Self and love all; let all idea of separateness go."
"seeing of 'many' is the great sin of all the world" that is beautiful Panda, but why would Brahman, which is perfect and complete at any given time, started seeing at all? He/She/It developed a need? the need for speed?
@@petermolinari2877 I would like to refer you to the following video, where this question has been elaborately discussed:- th-cam.com/video/ITyTsRm7Ixc/w-d-xo.html
That is one of the oldest queries of man, why this duality developed? Why Brahman forgot it's nirguna nature ? Revered swami sarvapriyananda ji answered it somewhere. Here comes the Maya or the Lila aspect of the divine. Can listen to ' samsara and Moksha' by swami, published on 12 Feb '17.
Alas! Everything is From, In, Of, By, For, and To The One. Questions, questions, questions..! Billions of shadows of questions vanish in an instant: Light!
I was especially fascinated by the question and the answer given to it by Swamiji towards the end. It's about the manifest and the unmanifest. Dr David Bohm, who worked with Einstein for decades and who was a friend of J Krishnamurti, has put forward a hypothesis which deals with the "explicate order" (manifest world), "implicate order", "super implicate order" and the "holomovement". The "holomovement" corresponds to the unmanifest. Two of his best books are: 1. Wholeness and the Implicate Order and 2. Science, Order and Creativity (coauthored with David Peat).
Actually he / Vedanta only described the phenomenon, not the inner workings, as to why would " Maya appear or emerge periodically and disappear within consciousness," the reason behind the phenomenon, he only said "the universe lies dormant within Brahman/conscious" , well, what was the cause or force which brought Maya out of the dormancy? Brahman didn't do it.....or did he/she/it? Sarvapriyananda didn't answer the question , only describe the phenomenon, as in-- after the rain, rainbow appears. ok, thumbs up, good observation, but how? Brahman is PERFECTLY CONTENT, COMPLETE, there shouldn't be any force or need to kick start the emergence ! ! !
At consciousness level of reality, does universe appear at all? At universe level reality, can we fully figure out the inner working of even the rainbow?
@@markcranberri6618 At consciousness level of reality if universe does not appear, then what is Maya? "Universe level of reality" I don't even know what that means, you mean transactional reality? experiential but false?
@@petermolinari2877 If only consciousness exists at that level, then that's it, right. But if we start describing that level of reality from any other level where something other than consciousness appears, then do we say "universe/maya appears and disappears in consciousness"? I am trying to understand.
@@markcranberri6618 "universe/maya appears and disappears in consciousness"? that is exactly Sarvapriyananda's words, in this talk, near the end. So obviously Maya arise form mind and mind arise form Brahman, right? till this point its all good. MY question is what cause mind (which resulted in Maya) to be rising from Brahman in the first place????? Brahman doesn't need all this shit!!! Brahman is perfect everything, no any need for ANY THING, rising or vanishing, what for????Brahman is PERFECTION, non-dual, no up, down, in ,out here, there, need this,need that!!! arise this, vanishes that........... Nooooooo. They will only tell you it JUST happened!!!!!!!!l like the freaking rainbow in the sky!!!!! Meaning they don't freaking know!!!!! It JUST happen that way, universe just rise from Big B, yes it just happened that way...like-u will go to heaven and be with16 virgins.... HOW? it will just happen...have faith, love GOD, it will just happen!!!
I don't know why but I felt that something was on swamiji's mind. He didn't seem cheerful like his usual self. everytime I see him, he has this glow on his face
It is a matter of zoom isn't it. The more you zoom into what there is, the more the connections are obscured by detail. The more you zoom out, the boundaries between this and that fade. But... even this zoom analogy is imperfect... zooming in and zooming out are indistinguishable... the more you zoom in, you realize that you actually are zooming out, and the other way around...
@@calotcha108 what you are saying is the sankhya approach, which is half way truth. If you investigate deeper, you will find that matter has no independent existence. Matter, hence universe is experienced only in consciousness. Consciousness is more fundamental in nature than matter, space and time...Which appear and disappear in consciousness. Take dream example to understand.
@@familyghalsasi5251 I agree that matter has no independent existence. However, i was not referring to the physical person but to the entity of the person. *_I am one with the universe, this is a truth_* because there truly is no separation but in our perception. Now, depending on what we're trying to express, or how we're looking at what we're saying, we may express these things differently, and that is all fine. So, one could say, _'I am in the universe'_ which in itself is a projection of one's own creation. One could also say that _' the universe is in me',_ which in this case will be a reflection of what one sees are part of oneself.
I had a strange experience listening to this video. I heard ( at least I though that I heard) Swamiji mention the difference in interpretation between Shankara and Swami Vivekananda for Sloka 2 of the Ishavasya Upanishad (?) when there was a disruption in the internet connection. After restoration, I listened to the whole video again to catch that point but could not succeed. May be I was mistaken.
Swami says at 5.33 “when you become aware of awareness” ( though he immediately says “ it is only a manner of speaking” ) Swami at this moment “ I awareness, am aware of being aware! “. Awareness is identified by itself as both subject and object. I am that!! that is aware of itself. And that knowing is reflected and illuminated in the mind consciousness!!!! An explosion a kilometre away can be heard at different metres by individual beings. And it is true the explosion is heard in awareness, but it can be felt and heard in the body and mind, consciousness made manifest as matter. Also it is possible that a being who is deaf will be ignorant of the explosion, so this shows that the mind and senses are limited. That limitation is known in awareness, “I am awareness “ knowing I am a being that is deaf.
Is Advaita asserting that from Brahman's perspective, nothing else exists or ever appears? Is it also asserting that from the universe's standpoint, universe does not really exist but only appears and disappears in Brahman?
Wanna ask some question plz if u can explain in next q&a session 1.prarabdha and purushartha. How purushartha can overcome bondage of prarabdha.i.e destiny?
In the beginning of the video the Swamiji talks about the progression from the physical to the subtle to the causal, does this happen in one meditation sitting?
It’s a process Seshadri. You try this progression in every meditation sitting and let the understanding and experience deepens over time. Be patient with yourself and your practice. 🙏
Can I ask a question here? My question is about the teaching of Anatman in Buddhism. Why do Hinduism and Buddhism have the opposite teaching? Are they really the same teaching looking from different perspectives? If yes, please explain. Thank you.
because in Buddhism they do not accept the concept of Brahman, no Brahman, how can you have Atman? An I believe you go it reversed, they are different teachings looking for the same result - Muksha/liberation.
@@prakxyz Yes, and I remember reading somewhere years ago, that one of the kings in India said exactly the same to Buddha, and the reply from the awaken one was" yes you are right, but the issue in the world is the imbalance between desire and detachment. I do believe that most people are suffering from attachment which result in their misery, and I also believe that majority of people will not become a monk." Which means that there will never be enough people detach enough form the business of the world to result in what you're concern of, and the situation in the present beginingless time is self evident.
aham is the consciousness absolute. ahamkaar is when a body-mind identifies with a slice of it. om is the absolute word. omkaar is when a body-mind gives a voice to it.
Pranam swami ji These videos and podcasts are playing in my world today, every day Question, when speaking around sudden realization prior to the proper tilling of the minds garden... What did we call such sadhaks, at around 36:25? I can't sound it out well enough
When both of them come together - gita says purushah prakritistha hi bhunkte prakritijan gunan, translated purusha or pure consciousness when United with prakriti or jada matter becomes experiencer of the material things born out of in sentient or jada prakriti. Chaitanya or pure consciousness can never be an actor on it's own, it acts in conjunction with prakriti - Shiva and sakti, Shiva is pure consciousness and shanti or prakriti when United with Shiva does all actions
Brilliant Swami Sarva Priyananda should quit the unnatural and anti Vedic monasteries, get married and start a Gurukul Ashram like in Vedic times. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Q - Should you tell anyone about your spiritual experiences? A - No, only your guru. In India we have a saying that a man should keep his spiritual experiences as secret as he would keep secret the fact that his mother was unchaste. Your experience may not be a spiritual experience at all. Now if you go and talk about some vision you have had to someone else, that person may feel he should have such an experience too. And so confusion will be created. One should never make a show of spiritual matters. Your guru alone should hear of your spiritual experiences. He will tell you whether they are genuine or not. Of course, you may not always like what he tells you! -Excerpt from Religion in Practice, Swami Prabhavananda

Chaitanya or pure consciousness can never be an actor on it's own, it acts in conjunction with prakriti - Shiva and sakti, Shiva is pure consciousness and shanti or prakriti when United with Shiva does all actions

Brilliant Swami Sarva Priyananda should quit the unnatural and anti Vedic monasteries, get married and start a Gurukul Ashram like in Vedic times.

Who is Harnath?
Swamiji Pranams is it wrong to share spiritual experiences if wrong why is it so.
Q - Should you tell anyone about your spiritual experiences?
A - No, only your guru. In India we have a saying that a man should keep his spiritual experiences as secret as he would keep secret the fact that his mother was unchaste. Your experience may not be a spiritual experience at all. Now if you go and talk about some vision you have had to someone else, that person may feel he should have such an experience too. And so confusion will be created. One should never make a show of spiritual matters.
Your guru alone should hear of your spiritual experiences. He will tell you whether they are genuine or not. Of course, you may not always like what he tells you!
