- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ค. 2024
- Swami Sarvapriyananda teaches the Katha Upanishad, which is one of the most popular Upanishads. The scripture concerns the story of a young man who goes to the house of death to find out what happens after death. The reply describes the nature of reality and the meaning of life.
The Katha Upanishad has two Adhyayas (Chapters), each with three Vallis (Sections). The Vallis contain the following number of Mantras (Verses):
Adhyaya 1 - Valli 1 - 29 mantras (1.1.1 - 1.1.29)
Adhyaya 1 - Valli 2 - 25 mantras (1.2.1 - 1.2.25)
Adhyaya 1 - Valli 3 - 17 mantras (1.3.1 - 1.3.17)
Adhyaya 2 - Valli 1 - 15 mantras (2.1.1 - 2.1.15)
Adhyaya 2 - Valli 2 - 15 mantras (2.2.1 - 2.2.15)
Adhyaya 2 - Valli 3 - 18 mantras (2.3.1 - 2.3.18)

ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
ABOUT US
Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.

@@josephoutward Don't have anger, it destroys you first and others later.
Good to know that you know the truth!!!
Please be happy in your fairy world!!!
Glad to see you Back :) Mr. Rockstar Swami :)
Im a black man from the hood. Somehow I found the Upanishads. Crazy how i connected with all this. It resonates with me
Tell me about it! I’m Latino who grew up Christian. I find yoga and Vedanta philosophy and practices more enlightening and connecting. Often when I hear certain pujas on you tube I feel like I’m returning home.
What's the hood
@DeanMorrissey-fu1yf here in America the "HOOD" is a place where there is alot of proverty and crime. A place where u lock your doors and avoid certain corner stores
Every one who takes birth as to come to this in one birth or the other. 🕉️🙏
@@davidmartinez9907Jesus taught vedanta
Swami ji, I am sort of getting addicted to your Satsang. Sri Ramakrishna making me do that. Absolutely blissful. Thank you Swami ji
Welcome back Swamiji. Not a word of criticism for anyone or any religion. So humble. This is what i love about him
He never does. Always inclusive, accepting, knowledgeable about other religions/philosophies east or west. A scholar and a gentleman.
This is the sign of true Hinduness (Hindutva).
he's a staunch nondualist but he never disrespects other sects and religions.
I wish Iskcon monks refrain from disrespecting other sects(Sampradaya) and other manifestations of Brahman i.e Shiva and Shakti.
Pranam Swamiji! My earnest gratitude. It is an honour to listen to you everytime.
The legend is finally back!
Oh! A long wait thus ends
So happy the classes are back on. Thank you revered Swami 😊
Our beloved Swami is back. His teachings are light of my life at this moment
I feel blessed to hear Swami Sarvapriyanandaji’s many wonderful talks systematically explaining the spiritual teachings of Advaita Vedanta so they can be understood by all! He is a brilliant and compassionate person working selflessly and tirelessly to benefit so many people! Thank you, Swamiji!🙏
I was simply waiting for this great Series. I don't to how to express my gratitude to you and the devotees of VSNY. May the Holy Trio bless you all. Pranam.
Me too was waiting for this 🙏
हरिःऊँ, प्रणाम,स्वामीजी।
Me too was waiting for this
Thank you, Swamiji for showing me the way to liberation; to seek the Lord without any self-centered desires.
So grateful for your talk. The mother runs to the child, but only when toys are no longer enough. I had an inner intent last night to move toward greater compassion and kindness for myself (I can sometimes be very competitive and harsh with myself). Your talk is beautifully timely.
You have a powerful name. I read the Book of Melchizedek many years ago. Seeing your name, I am wanting to read it again.
So grateful for these talks, and this one in particular.
The ANTIDOTE to all mental anguish is to firstly discern pain from suffering, then to achieve complete relief from that miserable state of existence, by abandoning the erroneous belief in personal authorship, and abiding in the primordial sense of being (the unqualified “I am”, which is one's core identity). This is the very same peace which is experienced each night during the dreamless phase of the sleep cycle. This "resting imperturbably as Flawless Awareness" can be practiced on a regular basis, until it is fully assimilated and integrated into one's life.
Every person, from time immemorial, has been either intentionally or unwittingly seeking such causeless peace, most commonly by practicing one of the four systems of YOGA (religion) delineated in the sixteenth chapter of this work, or else in creating wealth and the acquisition of material possessions, or in psycho-physical pleasures. That peace of mind is often referred to as “happiness”, “joy”, or “love”, and often presumed to be a temporal state, since many assume, incorrectly, that continuous peace is unavailable in this life.
Fortunately, that is not the case - it is eminently possible to live one's life acquainted with unbroken peace of mind, if destined.
Following DHARMA (frameworks of authentic religion and societal duties) is not guaranteed to achieve that desired tranquillity of mind, but even so, it is beneficial for individuals, since it establishes a structure which enables one to more easily elevate oneself beyond the mundane, animalistic platform (i.e. the base pursuits of eating, sleeping and mating). Intrinsic to dharma is the division of the adult male population into the four classes of society and the inherent role of girls and women in society, as fully elucidated in latter chapters of this Holy Scripture.
So, now that you understand life, and the reason why we are suffering here in this (ostensively) material universe, you are now able to be liberated from all mental suffering, RIGHT?
WRONG! It is imperative to approach an authentic spiritual master to assist you to come to the above realization, by slowly undoing your past conditioning. Just as you have been conditioned over an entire lifetime to think one way, you need to be re-conditioned to think another way (in alignment with your essential identity as The Divine). For one who has himself for a teacher, that man has a veritable fool as his teacher.
Even if you adhere closely to the precepts of a competent teacher, you may still not come to a full understanding of life, but if you are sincere, humble and dedicated, you will definitely find more peace in your daily life - all of which was DESTINED to occur, of course.
Furthermore, if you are suitably-qualified and it was ordained, you may be fortunate enough to receive discipline from one of the EXTREMELY rare fully-enlightened masters residing on earth at any given time (perchance even the current World Teacher himself), and subsequently realize the aforementioned fundamental concepts, by diligently studying authoritative doctrines (especially the most accurate and complete of all extant Scriptures, this “Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity”), serving your guru with great reverence and devotion, and by deliberately avoiding undue harm to oneself, to other individuals, to society as a whole, and to the natural environment, including other life forms.
Most beneficially, you are urged to become VEGAN, since carnism (the destructive ideology which supports the use and consumption of animal products, especially for “food”) is, apart from illegitimate (non-monarchical) governance and feminism, arguably the foremost existential crisis.
Best wishes for your unique, personal journey towards unalloyed peace and HAPPINESS! “The cure for all ignorance is unerring knowledge”.

Finding this, I am filled with gratitude for the amazing fact that I can sit comfortably in my home and have this explained to me in English by this wonderful man. What an amazing life I live. Thank you thank you thank you
What a beautiful teacher. I was wondering where I could learn this Atma vidya in a language I can understand. And my teacher arrived on you tube! 🙏🏽
I began thinking: "too much Sanscrit..." and as I listen and listen, the words are opening themselves to me and I love them. The precise meanings are amazing. And now I feel "Who can know enough Sanscrit". Thank you from the heart.

🐟 30. FOOD & DIET:
Foods in the mode of purity promote good physical and mental health.
Such foods include (in approximate order of their importance) fruits, vegetables, nuts, pulses, grains, roots, flowers, tubers, bulbs, and of course, purified water (or milk, in the case of infants), supplemented with seeds and herbs.
To be included in this classification, the food must be LIVING, that is, fresh and raw (or at most, steamed or lightly sautéed, if one is residing in a cold clime). Most animals subsist on living foodstuffs, so to be considered healthy, the food must be both living and natural.
As with all herbivorous mammals, humans who consume a pure diet normally experience a bowel movement after each substantial meal.
Foods in the mode of passion promote indigestion (or, at least, are more difficult to digest than pure foods) and overly-excite the mind.
Such foods are basically the same as above but, with excessive amounts of oil, spices, sweeteners, salt and/or other condiments added.
To be included in this category, the VEGETARIAN* foods may be properly cooked, but not overcooked, and mildly to moderately spiced.
Foods in the mode of darkness cannot rightly be called “food” at all, and invariably cause digestive upsets, such as constipation or diarrhoea.
Such “offal” is either dry, stale, putrid, rancid, decayed, carcinogenic, overcooked (or even worse, burnt), processed beyond recognition, or the remnants of another’s meal (that is, food which is leftover by a person who is lower in the hierarchy of society than the person who intends to consume it. For example, it would be offensive for a beggar to offer the remains of his meal to his king, yet the converse would be a rather benevolent act).
Again, to be included in this classification, the food is to be of wholly PLANT or fungal origin.
Ideally, most (if not ALL) of one's diet should comprise of minimally-processed raw foods, such as tropical fruits or vegetable salads, the latter of which often consists in fruits anyway, since such foods as tomatoes, cucumbers and olives are, in fact, fruits, since they are seed-bearing foods. If one consumes a very high proportion of raw fruits, it is rarely, if ever, necessary to fast. Fasting is beneficial for those who partake in a diet high in processed and cooked dishes. Fruit-juice fasting is possibly the best method of fasting, especially for those living an active lifestyle.
It is an undeniable scientific fact that humans are a HERBIVOROUS species (more specifically, a predominantly frugivorous, or fruit-eating animal). There is not a single aspect of human psychology or physiology which even suggests that we were designed or evolved to feed on animals. Practically all cat owners know to feed their pets with animal flesh, as they understand that felines are obligate carnivores, yet haven’t a clue that humans are biologically herbivores, and that the consumption of animal products is destroying their health.
Animal consumption is lawful ONLY if there is a scarcity of (actual) food. However, to be fair, some races have adapted reasonably well to an omnivorous diet due to residing in regions of the earth where edible vegetation has been scarce, for millennia before the twentieth century. But even then, those races have been found to improve their health when their diet had been enriched with vegetation.
Unnecessarily killing and/or consuming animals is an ABOMINABLE action. It is not natural for humans to hunt animals like sheep, cows, goats, rabbits, chicken, and fish, and gorge on their bloody carcasses. Sheep, rabbits, and cows are food for carnivorous animals such as lions, tigers and wolves, and fish is food for marine and semi-aquatic species. Do humans live in the ocean? Of course not! Then why is it necessary for us to go into the water to find our food? Is that sensible? Not at all, unless, as previously mentioned, one is afflicted with true hunger (and even in the event that one is literally dying of starvation, one ought to, from a moral perspective, as far as practical, eat those animals which are lower in the hierarchy of sentience, such as seafood. Slaughtering a primate is immeasurably more sinful than feeding on crustacean, for instance).
Milk is intended solely for consumption by infants of the SAME species. Cow’s milk is for baby cows, not adult humans. The logic is overwhelming, but unfortunately, not all persons are capable of reaching such a base level of logic to understand that it is unnatural for a human to suckle on the teats of a cow or goat. Furthermore, like all unnatural substances, dairy products are harmful to human physiology.
Ideally, one should sit in a comfortable position and eat one’s meal with a RELAXED mental disposition. Consuming food in an anxious state of mind may cause digestive upsets. If practical, eating with bare (washed) hands is more conducive to the enjoyment of one’s meal.
“And God said, ‘Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit.
You shall have them for food.’”
Genesis 1:29.
The Old Testament portion of the “Holy Bible”.
“Let food be thy medicine,
and let medicine be thy food.”
Hippocrates,
Father of modern medicine.
*The term “Vegetarian” is used LITERALLY here, that is, “one who subsists on vegetation”. One who consumes vegetation and dairy and/or eggs is properly called a “lacto-vegetarian” or a “lacto-ovo vegetarian”, respectively. The term “vegan” is not directly related to diet, but to the philosophy of the avoidance of harming animal life unnecessarily. Animal killing is permissible only in the case of hunger, self-defence, or in order to eradicate vermin from one's dwelling and work places. Obviously, veganism is to be promoted as the ideal way of life for all humans.
N.B. If you are reading this Holy Scripture, it is highly probable that you are familiar with the concept of the “Three Modes of Nature” (“trī-guṇa”, in Sanskrit). If not, it may be prudent to read or re-read Chapter 18 of “FISH” at this point. In any case, those who are, in fact, familiar with the three modes of nature have an extremely flawed understanding of how they apply to food and diet, particularly if they have studied the ancient Indian texts known collectively as “Ayur Veda” (“The Science of Life/Longevity”). Those persons invariably believe that animal products are categorized in the mode of darkness. However, that assumes that animals are actually human food, which they most assuredly are not.
The system outlined above is by far the most accurate, logical, and authoritative method of classifying food and ought to be followed by anyone who is truly desirous of living a wholesome life. Unfortunately, even most vegans seem to lean towards less-than-healthy foods.

Pranams to you Swamiji!🙏🙏I thank you so very much for this video! Your explanation has erased many confusions in my mind about rituals and none rituals! I feel reassured to know that I am not into rituals and to continue on my true purpose! Many blessings 🙏🙏❤❤🕉☪️✝️
This was one of the most clearest and honest introductions to any divine scripture, amongst *all* such discussions, for all world religions I have ever witnessed. Ever.
Great job, sir! Looking forward to the entire series. Shukriya, bahut! 🤙🤓
Bahut badiya good luck
Humble Pranam at Guru's Lotus feet!!!! Blessed to hear these satsangs🌹
I pray for Swamiji well being and good health. Since I don't know how many months ago he started looking like he have some health issue. And than I haven't seen for a while. Before this video only some short segments on some topics. I pray every day for Swamiji. He is the rare talent for using words and yet the vessel trough whom The Silence of The Self decided to say halo in this day and age.
Namaste, Kindly do not be worried - Rev. Swamiji has been keeping well - hale & hearty with no major health issues by Thakur-Maa's grace. Sometimes it maybe just lack of adequate sleep that week combined with imperfect lighting that might get him to appear a bit different. Thanks.
@@sadhikaany4157 Thank GOD. Locking forward to hearing some of his new lectures. A new Giana and comprehending what truly is, on the road to Saguna Brahman.
Took more than one hour just to introduction but never lost my attention for a second. That is just immersing dialogue and he is eloquent speaker. 😇 Looking forward for next series already
Pranam Swamiji, Wonderful to listern you again. Mandukya is almost by heart and help in meditation in line with PYS samadhi pada slok 27, 28 and 29.
I thank You so much for making Upanishads teachings so comprehensible with so much kindness, clearness, humor and love . I admire You very deeply and recognize you as a true Master Swami Ji . Greetings from México 🇲🇽

Shashroddho Pranaam Janai Swamiji Sarvapriyananda ke.
Thank you so much Swami Ji. Listening this on GuruNanak Ji Jayanti. Such as a coincidence to listen to you on this auspicious day. Your lectures immediately transcends anyone to higher level. Sat sat pranam 🙏🙏
প্রণাম স্বামীজি 🙏🙏
It is a real pleasure to hear your discourses Swamiji.I feel I am truly blessed to hear these explnations from such a knowledgeable person.A thousand pranams.🙏🙏
It’s by grace of Sri Ramakrishna & my Guru Maharaj ,I have this opportunity to listen to Swamiji on all upanishads.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Welcome Back! I’ve been listening (no video stream) to Mandukya Upanishad since your last video stream
Yay! Kathopnishad. Really excited to hear it from Swamiji
Katha Upanishad, the great child Nachiketa, my favourite one, the solace to my soul. Eagerly waiting to hear from you on Shreyas and Preyas..
I love listening to your teachings! Very clear, and relevant to our modern ears. Pranaams 🙏🏻
To the question about why one should be a proud Hindu I had to laugh. I hear this pride and boastfulness from so many Indians, who clearly have entirely missed the part of the teaching in which we are confirmed to have no separate self, no separate identity, and certainly no personal role in developing this understanding! Yet they will fight to the death to defend the religion they so poorly understand and apparently don’t practice.
😂 this attitude helps when you have jerks ( blind believers ) living with you.
Aneka Dandavat Pranams Swami Ji
Blessed to get in here and listen to you Swamiji 🙏
Blessed to be able to receive such awesome knowledge from Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Pranam Swamiji 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Maharaj ji, I was also at his vedanta class in GolPark Mission. He is a loving teacher. When he used to scold us, we never were ashamed. He used to start his class from our mistakes. We respected him so much and when bowed down to touch his feet he egarly blessed us.
Thank you Maharaj for your class as well.
about Sitanath Goswami ji
I've been a practicing Christian most of my life but recently spirituality and self-realization has repeatedly introduced itself to me in a multitude of ways, offering extensive meaning and ground truth in a way Christianity never has for me. And this man summarizes and presents this new approach in a beautifully selfless manner. So thankful I found this talk, and I'm excited to learn more.
Awesome! My favorite Upanishad! This is gonna be great
Very happy and deeply greatful to have stumbled upon Swamijis Upanishad classes 🙏
So much clarity.Never found before . My deepest pranam to swamiji
Om hari Swami Ji... Thank you so much for this amazing class... Om Namah Shivaya 💓🕉🙏
Thankyou Swamji for such beautiful lectures, starting my upanishad reading journey with this 🤞🏻
I personally feel like I am on a constant rollercoaster which goes on forever. The ride from up to down and upside down is quite challenging, but if you have good prarabda karma or more punya karma the ride is not that bad and you feel Bhagwan with you. But bad karma or paapa karma then the ride is quite intense. I am bored and I want to get off this ride. It is getting boring and frustrating. The novelty is worn off after the first few loops.
Pranaam Swamiji, you have put across with so much clarity and ease that anyone who is confused with religion and spirituality will get a clear bird's eye view of what we are trying to navigate through in life , death and the ultimate goal. I feel very blessed to be listening to all your pravarchanas . They are all pure & clear gems. Thank you Swamiji
Swamiji is the only Teacher I can listen to for hours even if the Sanskrit texts/explanations are testing my intellect🙈❤️
What an opportunity! Now I can learn the Upanishads properly. Pranam Swamiji.
You people are really knowledge sharing Guru's rather than money making foundations.
Shree Ramkrishna's and Swami Vivekananda's grace is still alive which makes you all detached from Publicity, Fame, Money, etc etc. Appreciate your efforts for all lifetimes till Moksha 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@halcyon2864 Shanti Shanti Shanti Om 👍🏼🙏🏼
@@halcyon2864 yes osho , acharya Prashant and Sadhguru are also real teachers. Blessed to have them. 🙏
@@aadarshsingh9224 Ok. Why Sadhguru is selling his concecrated stuff like, idols, snakes, etc etc online? Also, why Sadhguru didn't read Bagwad Geeta, Upanishads and other hindu scriptures like Osho and Acharya Prashant?
@@khudkojaano1676 I believe j Krishnamurthy also never studied any scriptures.
@@aadarshsingh9224 J Krishnamurthy did not build any statues, ashrams, big showoffs nor J Krishnamurthy sell any superstitious stuff to keep the superstition alive in human beings.
thank you so much for making these talks available to us. forever grateful
Thank you swamiji you’re teaching is wonderful many gratitudes dhanyosmi
Superb teachings.
Pranams Maharaj.
Pl accept my pranam Swami ji..💐 listening to you itself is a bliss 🙏
Grt, grt, waiting for this Uponishad class for a long time after all the classes of Vedantasara.🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐
प्रणाम स्वामीजी !
