Swami Sarvapriyananda is currently the President of the Vedantic Society of New York which is a part of the RamKrisna Mission. He has got a series of lectures on Vedantas, Upanishads and Gita which you may watch. He is an excellent orator and a true scholar and one of the best scholars of Hindu scriptures and Philosophies.
Now I understood why physicists such as Werner Heisenberg, Max Born, Niels Bohr, Erwin Schrödinger, David Bohm, Eugene Paul Wigner, and Ilya Prigogine have been influenced by ancient Eastern philosophy and Vedanta. Btw Merry Christmas!❤🎄
There seem to be 5 stages in this way to attainment: 1) read, read, read, ..... 2) understand, understand,..... 3) realise, realise, realise, ..... 4) feel, feel, feel, ...... Finally 5) become one with the feeling
Thank you Zuzana for this Reaction. Swamijis Lectures are always Jampacked with Insights, i learned so much from him. I sometimes take long walks through the Forest listening to one of his Videos, he takes you into new Dimensions. What is funny is, here he still has a rather thick Indian Accent. He is now the spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York and he speaks so perfect fluid English npw. Merry Christmas!!🎉😊
Now you are on the way to the world of legends where olny some people exists, none other then god himself himself can defeat these people in any form of debate 🗿🗿( This is just for the level of knowledge of vedantas where knowledge is at infinite and infinite is the knowledge). Merry Christmas ❤❤
@@nirhanh77Yes we are very emotional people, but it is not normal that someone from slovikya (West) is suddenly gain interest in this knowledge maybe his soul (soul has no gender) is making connections or some connections are finding this soul I'm just pushing it just a little bit .
Swami is also expert in buddhist philosophy(shunyata-emptiness) apart from advaita philosophy.hindu monks nd biddhists monks have debated on this for 1000 years.aadi guru shankaracharya won the debate with buddhists nd thts how buddhism declined in india eventually nd he is known as the guru who revived hinduism in india.chuslamic invasion wiped out most of buddhism from afghanistan nd pakistan by sword.u will still find buddhist nd hindu temples in afghananistan
Yes this was a very good explaination of non dualism. Specially the story of King Janak & Ashtavakra muni. Goes to show how sophisticated ancient indians were.They were real spiritual scientists.

"The Self is present in all the states of waking, dream and sleep, It is the light different from one's body and organs and illuminates them though it is itself not illuminated by anything else" btw wish u a very Happy Christmas 🎄
Hey Zuzana, just sharing my opinion , last while commenting you mentioned consciousness(Turiya) is part of god. The idea or the thought of god also exists in the waking state. so there is no god either. Turiya in our regular religious terms can be refered to as god(for our easy reference and understanding). Turiya, Aatma,God, Brahman, consciousness, awareness , soul are all synonyms.
Anyone can answer the question on which this video is made today, but that answer has no importance unless you understand it. To know the answers to some questions, it is necessary to travel there, otherwise there is no point.

He is a scholar who has studied scriptures. I wish he had learned from experiences instead of books. A true spiritual seeker will only be able to understand the difference
HInduism has 4 broad schools of practices(yoga) 1. Bhakti (devotion) 2.Karma(action) 3.Gyaan(knowledge) 4.Raj(related to the energy points in every living being called 'chakras') Here Swamiji is lecturing on Gyaan yoga. this school doesn't have anything to do with rituals,worship or even the concept of praying to God, it is just pure self enquiry ... more of a philosophical way of trying to get enlightened... But in another lecture he says ,since we are humans, it is difficult to generally not be controlled by our mind and emotions , hence Bhakti yoga is easier ... where you make yourself feel devoted to a particular saguna (visible) representation of divinity (hence we have so many Gods and Godesses who all represent various aspects of divinity)... interesting fact is even Adi Shankaracharya who has written commentaries on this Upanishad and his grand guru Gaurapadacharya, has composed hymns on Mother Goddess... Btw his lectures are such that u need to keep hearing them again and again to get a better understanding ....we hear it once, we feel we understood it, but then if u hear it again , u feel i am understanding it better now ...
This is called Advaita or nondualism. One of the schools in Hinduism. Interesting thing is if you study deeper, it can bring all world religions including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism etc to a common ground. Famous example is somebody introducing an elephant to blind people and each of them having different imagination of what an elephant looks like because they all touched the different parts of elephant. Advaita is like combining all, so that all religions makes sense. Be it Abrahamic religions or Indic religions like Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism etc.
Namaste; swamiji never said drop in a ocean analogy or theory in response to explaining Advaitha or non duality, how you said this in relation to what, is it really you in person watching or just AI avatar of you appearing as watching the class, I would have to content with such like possibility, may be I don't know
That's why, I always tell you, and some other people, in a Hindu🕉️ community and from a other religion🙏🙏 people in India🇮🇳, and in a around the world🌎, who make a joke and moke on a Hindu🕉️ religion🙏🙏, by coating a Hindu🕉️ epic stories, by saying that, Hindu🕉️ religion🙏🙏 is a unscientific, irrational and illogical. But i always says in my comments that, basically, epic stories are a moral stories of a Hinduism🕉️. To tell the human being that, how much powerful💪👍 maybe you are, in the end, good👍 always wins🏆💪 over the evils, in the end. So, that is the main purpose of, Hindu🕉️ epic stories. But, our actual and real, spiritual, and philosophical knowledge📚 remains in a Vedas, Upanishads and Lord Shri Krishnas teaching of bhagavat githa. By reading📖 a this kind of Hindu🕉️ holy📚 books📚, even many famous western countries scientists, philosophers, famous personalities, converted themselves to a Hinduism🕉️. Not like a other religion 🙏🙏people do, who only convert a poor and uneducated Hindus and other communities, around the world🌎, in the name of social services, in the power💪 of money, but not by their religion's spiritual knowledge📚, I think. Like our great Hindu🕉️ spiritual and Phylospical books📚 like, Vedas, Upanishads and bhagavat githa, do to the educated🎓, well knowledged and rich people around the world🌎, by converting themselves to a Hinduism🕉️, because, not by the money power💪, because of its great knowledge📚, i think.
Why are you so influenced by the Indian culture. I have travelled to many countries in Europe and even lived in Warsaw for two years but somehow couldn’t visit Bratislava
mainly spirituality - no worries, I'm personally not the biggest fan of Bratislava :( neither am I of Warsaw actually I lived there also for almost 2 years.
@@zuzanareacts Europe is so beautiful I wish I could explore more deeply. Only drawback in Europe is extreme materialism which has actually spread everywhere in this world. Materialism leads to selfishness and then social isolation. India is also going in the same direction. American influence has inflicted the masses here as well. BTW I loved Warsaw as a place
Finally!!! Thank you for sharing full video Who am I?💕 He is our Sir...🙏

40:07 No, it's not like that. There is no reality apart from pure consciousness. What we call God or Brahman is that pure consciousness. Advaitam !
Advait Vedant is the main core Hinduism.Advait Vedant can even explain Buddhism and Sikhism. And sometimes Christianity.
This is best video for those who wants to understand Hinduism core concepts.
This is the most profound talk, such wonderful, listened 3 times to understand in depth in detail. Thanks again
wow very powerful video , very deep knowledge

And don't forget to react on the 2nd lecture too. The lecture of next day.
You didn't notice 1/3
I go into Upanishads to ask questions- Neils Bhor physicist who made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory.
The whole time, he was teaching, I had an example of Light until he said if you have imagined it, it's not turiyam 😂
Turiya simply mean part(ansh) of Brahman (lord)
Haven't you heard what Swmai ji said? Turiya literally means fourth.

I DISAGREE vedanta is not vakti yoga.It is knowledge.One of the problem in hinfuism we do not find people who csn enlightened about hindu ism.

Those are more than thousand years old philosophy.

Advaita means non duality. There is only self. There is no other.
