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.

I feel very blessed to have been incarnated during this period in history, knowledge is so readily available and it’s a great gift to be able to learn from such knowledgeable beings as Swami Sarvapriyananda. Let us use whatever knowledge we acquire with with deep wisdom. Peace ❤️
I will feel blessed when I get mukti from my headphones and laptop screen when I listen to lectures. Need better technology.
@@grapeshott cool thing though, turns out you don't even need a laptop to attain mukti! Crazy right? You are already whole, already Brhaman, already the Buddha, as you are... Much much love :)

Indeed 😊

Swami Vivekananda used to say, when one becomes mad with Divine Love, one doesn't even know whether he is standing on his feet or his head.
Beautiful
What a beautiful, intelligent, humorous and deep presentation. Swami Sarvapriyananda is a divine gift to all spiritual seekers. 🙏
Such an enlightening talk by Swamiji! His oratory and story telling skills are highly commendable.
Truly when I first came upon him I was so totally fascinated with his oratory skills I would spend the whole time noting the perfect construction of the talk, the beautiful use of language, the lovely physicality, the way he would always tie everything up. And the deep well of knowledge he could call upon (highly highly intelligent person). But I was so fascinated with the talk itself I had to go back and take in the meaning on a second listen. I do think he is one of the greatest speakers in the US today, in any walk of life.

Wow, this guy is more articulate and knows more than like any other earthly/human spiritual master I listen to. I agreed with everything and learned a lot of new stuff too
While Swamiji makes spirituality so accessible, he is so accepting of one’s spiritual practice wherever they are, whomever they are. Even if one is confused, he has a way of making one feel it’s ok. He gives you the feeling that as long as you’re sincerely practicing with good intentions, you’re doing it right. The more I hear his lectures, the more I feel he’s reading my mind and talking directly to me.
That’s Sanatan dharma universal religion aka Hinduism per the invaders that started calling us “ hindu “

Yes. Spirituaity encompasses all regardless of religious beliefs. It is a way of life whereby thoughts, words and deeds that are bad will lead to negativity and positivity yields good results over time. Anyone can follow these principles and reach enlightenment.
The best thing not just about Swamiji but also all Advaitins is that they seldom criticize/refute any other faith/ideology/philosophy. On the contrary you will see Dvaitis and Vishishtadvaitis spending their most of the time refuting Advaita.
Actually Dwaits do it more than Vishishtadwaita
Swamiji, I just finished your lecture on Bhakti Yoga - the above video and as always, I was spell bound. I must add here that I have watched hundreds of your videos on TH-cam and every time, I am spell bound. I'm a 64 year old man living in Chennai , India and belong to Trichy near Srirangam. My humble pranams to you. It is my desire to meet you in person one day. I hope it comes soon.
Me too.
Dear Mr V Gopalan, trust you are in practice of one of the 4 path of spirituality. This knowledge takes us to a different level in our practice .
Swami should talk more on bhakti. May be talk on lives of saints and bhaktas.
I cannot put into words how this lecture helped me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Maharaj.
Thanks 🙏
Bhagwad Gita MUST be taught in ALL INDIAN SCHOOLS, colleges & Universities as a mandatory subject. Period.
If Indian Hindu civilization has to survive in this current age of Information overload and information revolution, BHAGWAD GITA MUST BE TAUGHT TO EACH AND EVERY INDIAN 🇮🇳.
Bhagwad Gita has a COMPLETE & timeless WORLD VIEW, in fact the ULTIMATE UNIVERSAL VIEWPOINT and summary of ONE AND ONLY ONE ULTIMATE TRUTH..
That is ONE ☝️ CREATOR WHO IS TIMELESS, FORMLESS, YET WHO TOOK AVATAR MANY TIMES IN MANY ways!!!
Bhagawan Krishna was one of them as it seems the only one ☝️ who declared it so boldly & opened and wisely / completely/ thoroughly/ intellectually justified way that GITA captured...
Bhagwad Gita is the song of the Lord!!!
जय श्री कृष्ण
भगवान श्री कृष्ण 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Teachers should also be qualified enough.
"Emotion needs an anchor":Swami Sarvapriyananda Maharaj, Jai Sri Ramakrishna!

Sada Swarupanusandhan hechi Bhakti Hechi Dyan! Swami Swarupanand(Pavas).

Always wait for his talks..you fill our days with such joy..Thank you Swamiji
Pronam, Swamiji. Bless me so that I may be a true seeker of the Almighty.
ॐ स्वामी सर्वप्रियानन्द नमः
Blessed is every soul which finds time to hear you swamiji. I can't stop listening once I start. Hari om tatsat.🙏
Hari Aum Tat Sat 🙏
Thank you Swami Sarvapriyananda 🙏
Thank you Swamiji ❤ for this wonderful lecture.
I am so fortunate to hear this!
the heart melts to hear the story of Dhanurdasa tamed by SriRamanujacharya... the epitome of acharya bhakti 🙏 hear it a 1000 times, it is still fascinating
No words Maharaj.
Aften tears rolling on my face when I listen to u Maharaj.
Exactly
Swamiji's talk answers many questions that keep popping up in my mind...As if God sends them through him🙏
The embodiment of the modern mind.
The harnessing of the tantric union.
Dual fold wisdom.
Bhakti does both things mention above.
Slowly now; the body is learning the space of the new and modern world.
Swamiji displays remarkable patience with the attendee at 1:18:35 when the man appears to start a story and not ask the question. He distills the rambling on of the questioner and answers it brilliantly. Such poise and tolerance.
I think you just felt impatience yourself lol
Wonderful. Pranaam maharaj
🙏🙏🙏
Swami Vedantananda Puri
Hari Hari - Thank you for this very informative lecture...Hari Hari
Plug in earphone, close your eyes and listen. It'll be more effective
At all times, in all ways without any worry or anxiety of the world, love and worship lord alone. Pranaams Swami!
41:00-47:00 🙏just listening to it🙏🙏🙏 one can get what to do in this life 🙏Listening again and again🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Love and Respect from Helsinki Finland🙏
Particularly beautiful ending to that talk . Thank you Swami 🙏🕉️
O my God what an amalgamation of Bhakthi and other paths. Very uplifting. My pranams
Four fold Qualifications:
1. Viveka(Discernment between what is real and what is unreal)
2. Vairagya (Dispassion for what is not real)
3. 6 fold treasure (Sama-Equanimity in all, Dama- Controlling the Senses , Uparati- Cessation of Desire, Samadhana-Concentraion of mind, Titiksha: Endurance and Tolerance, Sraddha-Faith)
4. Mumukhatva (Deep desire to be Free)
It's 'Shama' and not 'Ksama'. Shama means quietening the mind.
Better would be
kShama
I am amazed by the foreigners interest in listening to these lectures and even appreciative of them.
I too have noticed it but I am not amazed. There are not many Indian individuals pursuing Vedanta. We are mostly after position, money, property, family and good food. The westerners, who are fed up of these are turning to Vedanta for seeking real happiness.
True
What nonsense. Who is a foreigner to Vedanta?
to deep darkness fall those that follow action, to deeper darkness fall those that knowledge. One is the outcome of action the other is the outcome of knowledge. Those who follow both, with action overcomes death and with knowledge gain life everlasting.
Very true. Lord Sri Ranganathar has the most beautiful eyes in the universe.Lord Kondantha Ramar in srirangam temple too.
Are you a Sri Vaishnava ???
SWAMI ji ko meira pranam.👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🌺🌺

abality
Thank you Swamiji, a great blessing to enjoy the wisdom and inspiration you so skillfully share 🙏
Jai Sri Ramakrishna 🌺🐚🙏
Wow u just gave me much clarity ,I choose bhakti for now I have been stuck between the two paths for a year ,no one in Ohio can explain the difference ,I'm generally stuck between Eastern philosophy friends and Christian friends ,I knew both had its benefits but I thought maybe one had to be right or wrong for some reason, my close friends are on the path of vedanta where I'm more in the middle because I still have a child ,girlfriend,job,I smoke marijuana I just haven't completely got rid of my sense of "I".I a. Only 26 years old new to the spirit path ....my friends I don't believe have renounced their worldliness enough for the vedanta path either,,thank you God bless🙏
Protestant Christianity is Bhakti. Literally.
So vivid , so simple , really blessed to hear words of wisdom of great rishis and saints from Swamiji . I am going to share this wisdom to large body of people. I just glued to the talk like a child with Swamiji taking me through maze of confusions with a smiling face and assuring talk. Pranam , Swamiji .
Swamiji your class was so so so nice. I have no words to describe. Thankyou so much. We are all so blessed to have you in our life. Bhakti is one of the most beautiful way to go closer to God. Pronam Swamiji
We need tough guys on our side too,😂😆that is why the outward rituals of worship, i.e blowing conch, offering flowers, chanting verses..etc..for focus, otherwise the mantra gets thrown away by the tough guys of the mind...so humourous yet so profound..thank you Swamiji 🙏
Such a balanced approach...thank you Swami.
Thank you Swamiji🙏🙏🙏
Thanks again for all your enlightening service. Truly feeds my soul 🙏🙏🙏
May all be healthy wealthy and wise ❤
Light touch ...so very grateful to be able to hear this
33:35 to 33: 49, he literary cried while talking about bhakti ❤️❤️😘
Crystal clear elucidation. Worth listening again and again. Pranam Maharaj. Jai Thakur Ma Swamiji ! 🙏🙏🙏
BY LISTENING TO VARIOUS LECTURES I AM FEELING THE PRESENCE OF *VEDANTIC GOD*.!
ॐ शान्ति शान्ति शांतिः
Seeking Blessings From SWAMIJI.
JAI RAMAKRISHNA.
Wow, absolutely mind blowing, thank you Swami, many, many thanks.
Only Pranaams.. we are very fortunate to hear the words of the Divine
Such wonderful talk!
Took notes
Truly grateful for your talks, Swami
We are all blessed. That maharaji told us about bhakti.
Simply amazing, truly enjoyed watching this Swamiji!! 🙏🙏🙏
Excellent 👍 maharaj.. pranaam
As always very beautifully explained by Swamiji. I look forward for your lectures, sometimes, I listen over and over to understand, love new revelations every time. Many pranams to you 🙏🙏🙏
Koti koti pranam swami Ji🙏🏻
He is the fountain head of wisdom.
No, it is you. Just remove the veil. 🙏
I only hope these gracious drops from Swamiji are continued in these troubled times... I prostrate before thee a thousand times🙏🙏🙏
Simple way Bhakti yoga explained. It is always a pleasure to listen to your discourses.
Thank you as always, I am obsessed with Swami's talks
Feel extremely blessed to hear Swami ji.
🙏🙏🙏.
This is an excellent lecture on bhakti yoga. The revered swamiji takes pains to explain with ease and commitment how Bhakti yoga is relatively easy to realize god. Quoting the 79th suthra of Narada bhakti sutra, swamiji clearly expounds Sarvada (at all times), Sarva bhavena (in all the ways), Nischintehi (without any anxiety) worship the lord. This is the key of this entire lecture. We are beholden to you Swamiji.
Harmony of all four yogas is best.
Thanks a lot 🙏🏼☺️
ॐ ശാന്തി ശാന്തി ശാന്തി. ഹരി ॐ തത് സത്.
